In the UK, she just has released 'How Can I Keep from Singing?' as a new single. I have heard nothing about any video for it. Has anyone in the UK seen it, it there is one?

Now about this 'Two Rooms' kufuffle. Heard the album: not bad. Sinead O'Conners and Kate's interpretation of Elton John's songs I found to be the most interesting. However, there was documentary shown in Melbourne tonight called 'Two Rooms' which is obviously about the 25 year writing partnership of Elton John and Bernie Taupin. I only seen the last 15 minutes, but it was still interesting what Elton and Bernie have to say about each other. Also Eric Clapton and Roger Daltrey have their say about them. But my question is: WERE KATE BUSH AND SINEAD O'CONNER INTERVIEWED AS WELL? If so: 1. What did they say of them? 2. Did they say why they interpreted their songs in that way? 3. AAAArrrgh! Why did I have to work so late?!! Cheers, Mik. /***************************************************************************\ * Mik Lipcsey, Computer Systems Officer, * I am home, I know the way, * * Victorian College of Pharmacy, Monash Uni., * I am home, feeling oh, so * * 381 Royal Parade, Parkville, Australia. * far away... * * Aarnet: ml@vcp1.vcp.monash.edu.au * Enya & Roma Ryan: * * 'Open the Pod Bay Door, please, HAL' * 'Evening Falls...'
