To set the record straight, I didn't say that T'Enfuis Pas was Kate's greatest work (I am not some kind of extremist), I said it was the best thing that *anyone* has ever recorded at *any* point in history. There is more emotion in the lyrics, the melody, and the undermusic of this song than in anything I can think of. Because it is not in English, many people may shrug it off, but people who explore it more fully will find that it has more "depth" than any of her other works. I stand by my original statement. . .
