	. . . Something that Sarah herself never had to begin with.  Well,
having said that, I must say I actually like her stuff, but she can be a wee
bit self-absorbed and pretentious.  Nice songs, but methinks she aspires to
loftier artistic heights than she's capable of expressing.  Or something.

	When I saw Sarah in concert, I got to speak to her for a sec
afterwards.  I asked her if she liked Kate Bush, and she said never listens
to Kate anymore because she wanted to find her own voice or whatever, and
didn't want to end up being too influenced by Kate (and others).  This was
right after "Solace" came out.
