In the past two weeks, I've grieved the losses of two friends.  Just
yesterday, I listened to Moments of Pleasure for the first time since these
deaths and as I listened, I realized that is EXACTLY what Kate is singing
about.  I'd never thought about it much before.  While I have always loved
this song, for the first time, I seemed to really understand what Kate is
singing.  As I listened to her list of loved one's she's lost,  faces of each
of the loved one's I've lost in my life began to fill my mind and every note
and every word of that song suddenly became the expressions of all the
feelings I have for these people now.  Although I doubt I will ever meet to
Kate or speak with her, I did, for a fleeting moment, feel like she had seen
right inside of me and was speaking every single one of her words straight
out of the depths of my heart.  I don't believe I can ever hear that song
again without weeping...
