Kate will Eat Herself

[stev0@sti.com (Steve Berlin)]

Hmm, all this talk about Kate's popularity (or lack thereof) illustrates a
good point brought up a couple of months ago:

Is Kate Pop?

In England, the answer would have to be yes.  Never mind the music - a
string of Top-10 albums is Pop in my book.  If, say, Feotus had a string
of top-10 albums, the exact same garbag^H^H^H^H^H^Hmusic he put out, HE
would have to be called Pop.

Which is totally meaningless.  When has popularity ever been a sign of
quality?

In America, Kate "Who's That?" Bush is sadly still a cult figure.  Sure,
"cool" folks know who she is, but if you polled your average Miller-
drinking, Sylvester Stallone-loving American, they would never have
heard of her.

Also this means that in America, Kate is NOT Pop.

But coming from a country that fawns al over aerosmith and Z.Z. Top,
I take that as a compliment.
