7. The song that makes me cry

There are two reliable songs. ELO's "Wild West Hero" reminds me of driving with my Dad. Kate Rusby's cover of "You Belong To Me" sets me thinking about my grandfather "fly the ocean in a silver plane, see the jungle when it's wet with rain". It's quite dusty here.

A little Kate Rusby on a Saturday night. I cannot listen to this song without tears, for reasons. 😢

Thank you @FourT4 and @sharongascoigne for posting about her show (and boosting) and reminding me of her.

Here are two favorites by Kate Rusby, Sir Eglamore and Awkward Annie. Both have their little reflections in the webcomic Gunnerkrigg Court, a story about the clash of two universes: magic vs technology and the two young girls who embody them. (It's free to read online at www.gunnerkrigg.com)

Sometimes, I do a cover of those songs in my streams.

@abdalian I've just learned that #KateRusby (English folk singer) has made several Christmas albums, and they are very good for ambient dinner music.

@substandardnerd That's beautifully sparse, more pared back than Kate Rusby's version (which is gorgeous), strangely reminiscent of Susanna Wallumrød as well. Lovely.

I must confess I'd not heard it in Welsh before but, thanks to the Internet... hyfryd

... also recommend "Little bilberry", "Cornish wassailing", and gently smutty "The goose".

"The frost is all over" - Kate Rusby

Folk singer Kate Rusby has made half-a-dozen seasonal albums. "The Frost is All Over", from 2015, is a collection of familiar songs in unfamiliar arrangements, and songs from her South Yorkshire roots.

Kate's voice is backed by a brass section, with twiddling banjo and accordion. She evokes the pub singing tradition, people too rowdy for austere churches.

Here's the title track.
