Expires:

A few more SF stories using songs:

Anne McCaffrey's DRAGONFLIGHT, wherein the Question Song and the Ballad of
	Moreta's Ride convince Lessa that she can jump back in time 400 years
	to bring forward the personnel & dragons of 5 Weyrs;

CRYSTAL SINGER by the same author, wherein ``singing'' is used to locate
	crystals with rather unusual properties of sympathetic vibration;

THE GREEN HILLS OF EARTH by Robert A Heinlein, which is an explanation to
	a song;

STARDANCE and its sequel, by Spider Robinson;

STAR FIRE by Ingo Swann, about a rock singer whose ability to ``get in tune
	with his audience'' turns out to be exactly what it says.

I have a bunch of others hovering at the back of my mind refusing to be
acknowledged; maybe someone else will jog my memory.  BTW, I make no claims
on the readability of any of these stories, merely that they have songs as
major or semi-major parts.
