No flame, but I'm at a total loss as to why you think it should matter how TRS behaved in the charts. Most everything I listen to regularly has never been anywhere near the charts, by those standards TRS is a blazing commercial success. Stayed in the UK charts long enough and high enough to be down right embarassing to buy. I suspect it wouldn't be possible for KaTe to have a big single hit in the US with anything that we wouldn't find embarassing. It would have to be aimed squarely at the single buying public, which means 13 year olds. On the whole, I'd be happier for the effort to go into songs aimed at, er, slightly more mature listeners :-). -- rjc@cogsci.ed.ac.uk Where's me zimmer frame...
