Ken,
I've long ago stopped trying to evangelize people to my musical tastes,
especially Kate, and I'm sure you have too.  It's an impossibility.  Sometimes I
wonder if there isn't something lacking in the genetic make-up of those who
dislike Kate's music...what could it be?
My wife really doesn't appreciate Kate at all, she thinks she sounds like Tiny
Tim.
  
I suggested dancing the first dance at our wedding to 'The Sensual World',
thinking that it was just about the most romantic thing that I had ever heard,
and she thought it was just about the most ridiculous thing that she'd ever
heard! Then I suggested 'We'll Be Together Tonight', by Sting, and she was
ROTFL.  I gave up!

I suppose that it keeps our marriage fresh that we don't have all of the same
tastes, I kind of like that.
And I play Kate whenever I want, so long as I'm alone :-(  

Peace,  

Del
