Not exactly ecto material (what isn't these days? :)), but since it appeared here I might as well post here too. Meredith writes: m>Why Should I LOve You: This song has GOT to go.

I know these are your opinions, and I respect them, BUT: ;-) KaTe is obviously a Prince fan (see Constellation of the heart) and can write damn good and catchy funk, and who is better than Prince to jam with on such a tune? (even though they didn't quite interact in its creation). I listen to music like that, and think that the song is outstanding. In fact I've never imagined the Trio Bulgarka as being funky divas :), and yet they add to the brilliance of the tune. I love the way their voices blend into the keyboard riff in the intro. I would judge the song for its own merit and not for who is in it. m> There you have it, MY *OWN& OPINIONS.

If we want to be critical, we should start accusing KaTe for plagiarism, because 'Constellation of the heart' sounds a bit too much like 'New Power Generation' a Prince song from the Graffitti Bridge era, and the bass line on 'Top of the City' is a blatant ripoff of Tony Levin's style. But I like both songs, so I won't. :)
