Subject: Kate mentioned in new Peter Buffet hit

Has anyone else heard this??? Peter Buffet, the "Margaritaville" song guy, has done a recent, new cover version of James Taylor's old, familiar "Mexico" song. It's all over the airwaves, overplayed on soft rock stations in many cities. In the last part of the song, the singer goes into this sort of goofy stream-of-conciousness verbage that seems to completely be off the top of his head as the chorus sings "Ooooo-oohhh, Mexico!" over and over in the background. I don't have it all memorized but most if it goes something like this: "Oh yes, we got Mr. Nordstrom in the galley! We have the wind on our backs... Sailing into the land of the Mayans..." etc. etc.... The Kate mention is near the very end of the song. It goes like this: "...gay men in blue jeans - no, no, that's not politically correct, that's KATE BUSH in blue jeans!!!" I taped it and listened to it several times - it's Her name there all right!!! I am surprised I have not heard about it yet on the net - but then again, you guys probably caught it already; and it's all old news to you, which would be just my @#$%! luck. :) -E.
