>Interesting article.  I laughed until I stopped.

I, regretfully, have only seen the video once, and then only the last
thirty seconds of it. As a result, I thought it was supposed to be
Kate making a covert parody of American rock videos. I am glad to see
that I was somewhat right....

One thing though.

 ^^^^^^^

Now, the other two are more or less horrible and even Madonna's no
Kate when it comes to songwriting department, but I think she deserves
a bit better of an adjective than "repulsive". I even sort of like her
last album.

I haven't the foggiest idea, however, where you got the notion that
she can dance. She can writhe much as I do when I wake up feeling
particularly uninspired to face the world, and do it on many surfaces
such as concrete or astroturf, but she can't *dance*.

Anyway, back to Our Lady and the world at hand.
