I tend to agree with this view when the orb and scepter are placed 
into the context of the video.  When considering them in the context
of the song, however, I just assumed they represented what I had always
understood them to represent - the king's authority (scepter) balanced by 
his his responsibility to justice (orb).   I saw these as corresponding
to the theme of the song, "Love and Anger", two forces that conflict and
balance one another.

Thanks for the tip.  I guess I'll have to pay closer attention to these
spots!

Well, my goal here is to bring some of these presumably glorious Kate
images out of the realm of high powered workstations and into the hands
of lowly microcomputer users.   I'm sure there are a lot of Kate fans 
who are micro users out there who would like to have these images in
in GIF format in VGA or Super VGA resolution.  This would make the images
accessable to PC, Amiga, ST and  (I think) Mac users.  If you can still 
help and you are interested drop me some E-mail.

I really enjoyed the video for "Express Yourself", although I don't think 
much of the song.  Somebody did a tremendous job of bringing the 
"Metropolis" atmosphere into full color.  Also I have to wonder how many 
of the dance moves she does in this video are meant to be taken seriously 
and how much of it is just a parody of certain other "artists".

If there is an anti-Kate it must be....Alice Cooper.  Don't believe it?
Alice did a cover of "Sun Arise" way back in 1972.  Right after "Ballad
of Dwight Frye" on "Love It To Death".
