Until I got the lyrics with _Never_For_Ever_, I thought Kate was
singing "choice"--albeit with a rather strange pronunciation.
Actually it sounds like "chove" to me, suggesting Jon's theory might
have some merit.  Though I thought Kate was too much a perfectionist
to let that slip by.

And since we're on the topic of Babooshka grammar, is there any such
word as "freezed"?
