I'm glad IED posted those lyrics so I could laser print them, because the jewel booklet sucks eggs. >Of less importance, every time I look at the cover I get the feeling >that someone who didn't like Kate stuffed a flower in her mouth >in order to shut her up! You've got your importances messed up, but to each his own. How could anyone want to cover up Kate's luscious lips? Just take a look at those babies on the cover of TD or even the TSW single! Of MUCH more importance than any of this crap is the new issue of Melody Maker, with a huge feature on Kate. She's on the cover, and gets their colour pages in the centre. The interview (by Steve Sutherland) is GREAT! One of the best KT interviews I have ever read. It is obvious that Sutherland and Bush hit a vibe early on, and they never let up. KT seems to be having a blast communicating with someone who understands her work _perfectly_. I admit not hating the NME interview as much as IED, but it pales into total insignificance when confronted with the MM one. Besides, I always liked MM better. I urge every love hound to get this paper now!!! I assume someone will transcribe it soon. I would do it, but I haven't much time. -- +---------------------- Is there any ESCAPE from NOISE? ----------------------+ | | |\ | jsd@gaffa.mit.edu | "I like George Bush, but this `kinder, | | \|on |/rukman | jsd@umass.bitnet | gentler' crap is killing us." - D.Trump | +-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
