   Some other Kate/Paul connections: 

    The group video for "Let It Be" done for the Zegrebb (sp?) Ferry Aid
Diaster Relief Fund. Mac is the first singer and Kate sings the "...when
I find myself in times of trouble, Mother Mary comes to me speaking
words of wisdom, let it be.." part.

    On page 29 of the Fred and Judy Vermoral book "Kate Bush:  Biography
(Princess of Surburbia)" Kate was photographed with Sir Bob of Geldof
and "The Cute Beatle." They are all holding their Daily Mirror British
Rock and Pop Awards. Kate won (I believe) for "Best Female Vocalist"
and Paul for "Outstanding Music Personality." I can't see Bob's award
but it was probably for a Boomtown Rats single.

    A couple of odd things. Maybe it's just something about Kate, but
in both of these photos, Paul has the *dopiest* open-mouthed expression
on his face! Maybe it's just something that Kate brings out in him.
Also, Kate in heels is almost a full head shorter than the
not-tall-at-all Paul.
