    No, this Welsh giirls' head is not easily turned, lest it be turned by some English tosser!

      I'm off to bed too, Caliban. The "x" is at the end, not at the beginning of the words (which are the same), if that's any help.

      Anna, mutual, from afar.

        Sorry, I am confusing the issue. 2 of the answer words are the same, the other is commonly abbreviated to the same.

        You can tell I'm an amateur at this

              I was going to add the clue: The third is the brainchild of someone fishy who would like to poach something. The others sound watery, but I doubt if that fish could quite reach the first, and it would never be found in the second (unless dropped in).
              But you didn't need it. You're nearly there.
              The others are?

                            MaX Bruch's Scottish Fantasy?

                            First thing I did when I saw your clue was hit "Bruch Scottish Fantasy" in google to see if I could see any Xs at all....

                            As so ofter, I failed to take the last step and connect with MaX Bruch...

                            The only thing I found was that Arthur GrumiauX recorded it but it hardly fitted any of the others so I went to bed....

                            I am an English tosser indeed, Anna (you were up late!!)

                            Sounds and sweet airs, that give delight and hurt not.
                            Sometimes a thousand twangling instruments
                            Will hum about mine ears, and sometime voices..."

                              sadly I can't I (really) have a train to catch - could be the Flying Scotsman. I think Caliban should have it he did very well on lawyer's hours!
