By the way, does anyone who gets MTV know if they've played the "Hounds of Love" video at all? "Now when they ring, I get my machine to let them in" Doug P.S. There was a local video channel somewhere that never played Kate Bush, and a bunch of people got together, and sent the station a pizza with "Kate Bush" spelled out in pepperoni every day until they started playing Kate Bush vidoes. Now the station loves her and they play her videos a lot. It just goes to show you, that if you start playing good music, you stop getting free pizza.
