(I helped!) Chris sent it to Kate and she liked it enoughthat she called him! I was at work, drat. He also gave Kate a bettercopy when we played fannish fans and met Kate's airplane when she cameto New York to promote Hounds of Love (we drove from Kansas City, wherewe lived at the time). Over the years he's updated it several times, themost recent with video from the DVD and audio from the CD. It's on>>>YouTube at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KUTkdw4C0XA" Wow! Please tell Chris that was beautiful. Really! Wow! I always loved that song. (I have the French version too which is gorgeous) As far as Kate and worst song (if that is even remotely possible!) I can say the only least favorite song of hers for me was Big Stripey Lie for some reason. I know she played the instruments on it though, so even thought it's my least favorite, I still give her HUGE credit, and of course, continue the song's rotation without interuption.. (and what an honor her calling him! She sent me a 8x10 autographed photo of her years back which I proudly have framed:) Suz (email filtered and set to exclusive contacts) - -- To get the full value of a joy, you must have somebody to divide it with (Mark Twain).

"Big Stripey Lie" is one of my favorite Kate songs. The song that follows it on _The Red Shoes_, "Why Should I Love You", is probably one of my least favorite. (Please don't send IED around with his 50,000 watt speaker truck to play _The Dreaming_ at me for expressing such heresy. Actually, that sounds kinda enjoyable.) ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 07 Oct 2007 01:25:34 -0400 From: morayati@email.unc.edu Subject: Re: Infant Kiss Chris Quoting Steve VanDevender : > "Big Stripey Lie" is one of my favorite Kate songs.

But I have associations there that play into that. I'm ambivalent about "Why Should I Love You"...in my opinion _The Red Shoes_ is a great album with some mediocre songs pulling it down like musical anchors. Include everything from _The Line, the Cross, and the Curve_, (except maybe leave out "Eat the Music", which I like some days and dislike others) add "The Song of Solomon" and "Big Stripey Lie", and *maybe* "Why Should I Love You?" and "You're the One" and it'd be perfect in my eyes. But then, I'm not Kate. ------------------------------ End of ecto-digest V13 #271 ***************************
