Funny--I was just commenting to a friend about the fact that Gabriel
is one of the few male singers I listen to who has what I consider
to be an incredibly sensual, sexy, and appealing voice.  But then I
s'pose I've always wanted Gabriel all to myself...;-)

obKaTe--"The Sensual World" is one of the most sensual songs every written/
performed.  KaTe makes this kinsey6 quiver in the knees when she 
sighs "mmmh, yes"

(and to jump into the recent thread, I was disappointed by TSW when it
came out, but it's probably my 3rd or 4th favorite KaTe album and I
listen to it a lot more the TKI, LH, or the two B-sides discs.  No question
that it's got problems, but they don't get in the way of my enjoyment)
