Just THINK of what got her successful in America. It was Running Up That Hill. And if you watch the 'video' that aired on MTV-USA *), then you'll see the most ordinary video Kate ever did. So this might be an indication for simplicity, but I rather believe not. Today's commerciality is for one part what you'd call boring, for the other part what you might call dancy, beating, techno stuff. And if Kate does do some of that, then I'd really want to hear that. Because then there would be more behind it that the massive but short-time listening to most commercial stuff of today. I dream of something let's say like Waking The Witch, such stuff may be made commercial nowadays. Not the original one, maybe that's too much for the unprepared, but into that direction. Bye, Uli *) for non-knowers: that was not the normal video with the dance scenes but rather one of Europes quite boring TV appearances, in this case the Wogan Show one.
