Kate doesn't care.  All she wants to do is to create artistically.
She keeps saying that she is "surprised" and "honoured" that people
buy her records faithfully etc.   Involved in the performing arts myself,
I know the satisfaction you get when you feel that there are at least
*some* people who are moved by what you do, no matter if you didn't get
a full house or are being panned by critics.

She prizes her privacy *WAY* above the number of record she sells.

>Flame me now and believe me later....

Not a flame, just personal observations.
