When did I first hear Kate?
Hmmm...I'm not sure...I've narrowed it down to two possibilities:
a> I think I saw "Running up that hill" on MTV (the "live" version, not the 
dance version)...I was fairly impressed (considering at that time I was 
listening to junk like Duran Duran)
b> I think I saw some of "Live at Hammersmith Odeon" on USA 
network...specifically, I remembered the song "Wow"...how many songs have a 
chorus of "Wowowowowowowow!" in them?
Anyway, I remember my mom bringing me "Keyboard" magazine with Kate on the 
cover several years ago (she works at the library and gets lots of free 
stuff)...now, I'm fairly sure that she threw it away (grrrr.)

Anyway, I agree with the statement that "Hounds of Love" and "The Ninth 
Wave" are two different creations...in fact, I think it might've been more 
logical to release them separately as EP's (however, that probably might not 
have done as well economically...)
Here's my order of favorites:
The Ninth Wave, The Dreaming, Hounds of Love, The Kick Inside, and the other 
three tied for last...of course, they're all brilliant.

As for mixing Kate with "The Sky's Gone Out", I think that would be quite 
an interesting combination...do you think Kate would like "Spirit" ???

enough of my babbling.
