Hi, Craig

> are you asking me to believe she doesn't love any of Kate's songs?

No, I don't. I talked about general reasons for artists doing cover
versions. And, of course, if Tori really loves a Kate song - and i
can't believe she doesn't - it would be a nice gesture to perform
one of her songs. What i said was, that I don't want her to do it
just because her voice or her style is similar to KaTe's.

> No amount of argument, violence or anything else is going to convince

I agree. The fact that Tori's first album "Y Kant Tori Reed" is totally
different from "Little Earthquakes" shows that there must be a kind
of influence. And obviously she has been influenced by KaTe.
But i'm sure that Tori will never commit this.
