    Which song are you referring to? The only song with some kind of
monologue that I can think of at the moment is "Not The Red Baron". Or
do you mean the 'he's chasing tornadoes'-bit at the start of "Talula"?

>Is Kate's use of this monologue original?
 
  That particular monologue, sure, but including (spoken and sung)
monologues and dialogues in songs has been done before.. .

   On many occasions Tori *has* said that Kate is an artist she
admires and respects a lot.

    So, what are you getting so worked up about?
