Half the hall has an opinion here and the other half pretends not to. I would rather hear from both.
Strip the songs away and it comes to this: what the Others actually want, if they want anything. I think it will turn out to be simpler and sadder than the songs have it.
There is a version of this where the truth is dull — a bad decision, a bad winter, nobody's grand design — and I have never once heard anybody argue for it.
Say I am wrong, if you think so. Somebody usually does.
