(I'm pretty pissed that the KBC didn't send out a notice > about this...) Yay! Kate Bush duets with certified desperate-to-be-liked anything-for-a-fucking-hit assholes. Their contribution to rock consists solely of figuring out how to make a guitar sound like bagpipes. A band with real balls would get a guy with REAL bagpipes up there. Of course, all you completist types are going to buy their ALBUM, and the SINGLE, and the DANCE REMIX, just so you don't miss out on the tinsiest bit of "Our Beloved". And then every time your friends come over to pose for a while you'll have to go through fucking gyrations to explain to the partially hip ones why it is that you own a Big Useless record (and single, and dance remix), plus the latest issue of Tiger Beat, you know, the one with Leif Garretsonwanker on the cover, "just for the paragraph on Big Country, they mention Kate!" Sad fucks, wake me up when its over. valas
