I particularly like "The queen and the soldier", if for no other reason than it has that totally shock ending; just when you think it's a soppy love-transcends-social-strata-divisions song, it explodes in your face. Nice one.

Yeah, I much prefer her first album too. I find 'Solitude Standing' too patchy. 'Queen and Soldier' is real sad ain't it? 'Small Blue Thing', 'Freezetag', 'Marlina', 'Some Journey' all classics.

And that part at the end of 'Cracking' when she sings "walk through the park in the afternoon, wondering were the hell I have been", gets me every time.
