Hi, all.
	While watching VH1's 'Big 80's,' I noticed that the end
segment of Fleetwood Mac's 'Gypsy' was remarkably similar to Kate's
own video for 'The Sensual World.' 
	In both videos, Stevie Nicks and Kate are slowly step-dancing
through a forest. Stevie is then showered with glitter (which from the
expression on her face, is NOT a good thing) while Kate dances through
floating flotsam and jetsam. (Exactly how does one spell jetsam,
anyway?) Kate later does the glitter thing in 'Love & Anger.'
	Of course, Fleetwood Mac spent some serious money to provide
Stevie with some serious foilage -- and a matte painting of a cliff to
boot. But Kate acquits herself very well in the set department.
	Wonder if she saw their video? The song didn't do so well in
the UK back in 1982, but it was a HUGE hit here in the US.
