Rate Kate

[a94mikja@ida.his.se (Mikael Jakonen)]

I've never really had any "first" album. I heard some KaTe songs while
visiting friends. At first I didn't even take notice of them.
One of the first that really stuck in my mind was 
Big Sky (meteorological mix). One day I heard a wierd song on the radio.
Realizing at once this was odd (there's one in a million chance of Kate 
being played on Swedish national radio :( ) I tried to figure out who it was.
Strange poetry being read in heavy dialect, but singing in the background
I recognized Kate. Marcus (my friend who introduced me to Kate's music)
identified the song as The Dreaming. At that point I decided to get all albums
as quickly as possible, so I taped them. Now I'm replacing them with CDs.

Album ratings:

1 Hounds of Love
2 Lionheart
3 The Kick Inside
4 The Dreaming 
4 The Red Shoes
5 Never For Ever
5 The Sensual World

Top 5 Tracks:

1 Big Sky (meteorological mix)
2 Under Ice (always makes my throat choke)
3 Waking the Whitch
4 Big Stripy Lie
5 Hammer Horror

Bottom 5 Tracks:

1 You Wany Alchemy
2 Mother Stands for Comfort
3 Houdini
4 Top of the City
5 Moments of Pleasure

I know there will be quite a few of you who will NOT share my view, but
I don't care. I don't like MoP! 
The Ninth Wave is a part of Hounds of Love. But if you split them, 
Hounds of Love will drop to no 4, and the Ninth Wave will climb to leave
two blank lines between itself and Lionheart.
