What Sinead O'Connor said about Kate.

[ed@das.llnl.gov (Edward Suranyi)]

You may remember that when Sinead O'Connor's debut album, _The Lion
and the Cobra_, came out, there were a lot of people comparing her
to Kate.  Not because she sounds like Kate (she doesn't), but 
because "she uses her voice in bizarre ways to create interesting
effects" (_L.A. Times_), or because they're both "women shattering
the boundaries of pop music" (_Rolling Stone_).  

Well, she was interviewed in the _L.A. Times_ about a year ago, and
here's what she had to say about this:
     "I like Kate Bush, so it's kind of flattering [to be compared with
her].  I'd rather be compared with her than with someone I really 
detested. . .like Suzanne Vega, Joni Mitchell."


By the way, does anybody who reads this newsgroup even know of 
anybody who went to one of the Tour of Life concerts?  Just
wondering.
