        No - it is in the title of one of the songs. In fact the T wotd comes into two songs of the same title ref Levi and Jeff and also on the first item on the card. It appears in the opera too.

        There's the twist!

          So, we're looking for a word that sounds like (but isn't) the name of a bird, or possible Byrd, Charlie Parker, Birtwistle sort-of thing?

          petrified in two different forms by Levi and Jeff.
          ... and referring to a myth in which somebody is turned to stone?

            ELO there, be 'ed turned.
            Or just sounds like bird. Byrd or more than one of them. Rattling a tambourine might be jog your memory. A seasonal look?

              ELO - Turn to Stone (1977) - Jeff Lynne
              Levi Stubbs ("I'll Turn to Stone") being the other gentleman I guess, though everybody seems to know that already - I'm way behind

              I've forgotten what the question was now

                So the T is ?

                and the coleslaw for anyone who wants to fill in the gaps and make a U turn. For me the garden beckons.
