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.
