IED it is _painfully_ obvious that you are incapable of any objective
criticism of Kate's
work. 


 Sure I'm a fanatic too - but I make sure that I don't have blinders on
- I know bad
when I see it (and I am not saying that the latest album is bad - but I
think one would
be hard pressed to justify its place anywhere near HoL or TD). 

And the video for Love and Anger - flaws/weaknesses (IMHO)

1)  Poor direction - who said that kate looks good at all when all I see
it the underside
                     of her jaw.

2)  Too derivitive of Sat in Your Lap.

3)  Dave looks like an _old_ Jabba the Hut here (once again poor camera
work/direction)

and finally - the biggie

4)  That inane 'chicken' imitation Kate does while singing - Kate the
disco-duck thing is
     _out_ even a
hormonally-imbalanced-over-made-up-pre-teen-club-MTV-slut wouldn't
     dance like that.
