Kate and Primus (!)

Kate was mentioned in the song (Flight of the Parrot, I think; I don't
have the CD in front of me) on the new Primus album:

   I've seen the likes of Kate Bush
   and Van Morrison
   teaching the parrots to sing

(suggesting that Kate and Van Morrison are oft-copied originals)

IMHO, Primus is one of the handful of bands who are qualified to make
comments about originality. I wouldn't have thought Les Claypool to be a
Kate fan, but then again, they're both way out there. :)
