Just because Kate's music is the best around (or not around ;-) ) , it doesn't mean that the rest automatically sucks. Why can a Love-Hound like Rock/Heavy Metal as well as KaTe? There is actually some good music in there. And a footnote to the question of literature in music - did you know that Iron Maiden had a song based on "The Rime of the Ancient Mariner". I don't dispute the rest of it though! > Steve Schonberger microsoft!stevesc@uunet.uu.net --John =============================================================================== John Precedo | JANET: jp@doc.ic.ac.uk Imperial College| Huxley Building | ...Its been such a long week... 180 Queens Gate | London SW7 2BZ | ===============================================================================
