N.B
Some lyrics I have seen have 'Lin Ti Pau'.
All sources I have, (original English sheet music, and the booklet
in the remastered CD) both say 'Lin Tai Yu', and listening carefully
to both the original, and live version, with headphones on,
it clearly sounds to be 'Yu'. The name is from a classic Chinese character
from the novel,'Dream of the red chamber'. Tai Yu is sometimes transcribed
as Tai-Yu, or Daiyu. I went with Peter Gabriels spelling.
