Fish" Subject: No Basia content: Joe Leeway Fellow Basia fans, I was sent this email last night from a gentleman named Matthew who is trying to get in touch with Joe Leeway (ex-Thompson Twins). I told him that I met him back in 1985 but did not know him. Apparently Joe is owed some royalties and I told Matthew that I would pass this email along. If anybody can help, you may emial him directly at matthew.seal@ukperformerservices.com Thanks for your time, Paul - -- "I told you!

W." Subject: Natural Beauty Contest (Re: Basia, Super Hits photo) Hello all, After reading some messages mentioning about Basia's "eternal" appearance, I got a question in my mind. Is there any contest of the most beautiful artist/singer in the world? If yes, well, let's put her name on the nominee list for the category of "Natural Beauty".... :-) The qualifications: age is not limited, naturally beautiful (no plastic surgery, no "thick" make-up, natural hair color), beautiful brain (smart), beautiful attitude, beautiful heart, clean track record, and, of course, beautiful voice is an advantage. The question: Would she win the contest? Desianto F.

NOBODY would win. Trust me on this. . . I have to agree, it's nearly impossible to find anyone, star or not, who has their natural color. In fact, I have to say mine just got colored. My wife was lightening her hair and had some of the color left over, so she told me I should use it. So I did. I've added color before but never lighter. I haven't been this color since I was too young to remember.

I was thinking about how thankful I was for your optimism and cheerfuless in the face of "nothing happenin'". Many think that the louder they roar, the stronger they are, but in reality the more steady a person is, the more strength they possess. And you, sir, maintained that strength throughout, and I thank you!

She appeared "au naturale" on her last CD cover and wins big kudos for the guts it took to do that these days. She has an interesting beauty when the makeup folks get a hold of her. Did anyone catch her on the Today show this morning? She's gorgeous in my book.
