You're hallucinating.  That _is_ the whole line, according to
my ears and my CD booklet.

>2.  Has Kate _ever_ been seen on a stage in the United States?

Badly phrased!  I live in the US, and I watched the tour video, so I
guess she's been seen on a stage in the US.  To answer your question
the way you intended it: she was on Saturday Night Live a million
years ago.  Does that count?

>3.  Is there a poster of the Kick Inside cover?

I've never seen one.  There may well be.  Which cover do you mean?
There are four different ones that I can think of.

>4.  Is Kate's Ninth Wave related to Sting's (Love is the) Seventh Wave? 
>If so, what's the reference to?  (I assume it's literary)

Hell No!  It's from Tennyson's "The Coming Of Arthur" according
to the back of the album cover.

>5.  Is there anybody on here who hasn't bought Enya's Watermark album

Yes.

>6.  Is Kate Bush the female Peter Gabriel or is Peter Gabriel the male
>Kate Bush?

Neither.  They are the same person using a lot of makeup and special
sound processors on their vocal tracks.

The female vocal part was originally written for Dolly Parton.  She
didn't do it at the last moment, obviously.  Kate stepped in.  Check
out the Bush/Gabriel duet "Another Day" (if you can find it!) if you
don't like "Don't Give Up."  Also, I'm sure you _do_ know that Kate sings
backup on "Games Without Frontiers" and "No Self Control," both on
PG's 3rd LP.

>8.  Has anyone heard Kate's guest vox on the song Sister and Brother on
>Midge Ure's album Answers to Nothing?  It's pretty cool.

Dunno.  Never heard it.  Ure gives me hives.

>9.  Does anyone know of any other KT guest vox that are worth having?

I may draw flames, but I like her appearance on "The Seer" by Big
Country.  She kicks ass, as she always does.

>10.  Can anyone help me think of a tenth question?  I guess nine is
>enough--one for each wave.

You didn't ask what the significance of "gaffa" was!
(NB: Do _NOT_ ask this question.  People will not like you if you do.
The line above was a rare example of my frivolity.)
