Has anyone ever gotten a definitive word from Mike on any of these lyric controversies, from "catch it" in the beginning of Platinum, to ""some make chaos" in Ommadawn? (I still think that is "some make cars"). It seems like we could take a winter brain and saw to these once and for all with the definitive word from the source.

Where the Falls of Minnehaha
Flash and gleam among the oak-trees,
Laugh and leap into the valley."

The link on the VOH page doesn't work, so I may well sum up Mike's answer here [yes, he did give one! :D]. He said that the correct lyrics are "some make chaos". He was reportedly astonished that people could anything else than that. :)

Also, when I and Korgscrew personally talked to him, he said that the 'lyrics' sung by the megaphone voice in Taurus II (which, BTW, is his voice) were really written as "Sana, Rosana, Daloo Bee Rawana." :D

But what about Platinum, has anyone asked him about that yet?
