mizzell@earthlink.net informed us, over and over again,
that Kate did the music for the Fruitopia teevee commercials.
Well, folks may want to know that she's no longer doing them.
All gone bye-bye.

And two the one or two people out there who didn't know Kate
did the music for them, I thought I'd also mention these facts
before Mizzell scoops me on them (or before you read the FAQ,
whichever comes first):

o  Kate has an album out called "Hounds of Love" - I think a lot
of people who read this newsgroup would enjoy it.

o  Kate Bush was born in ENGLAND!

o  If you look at the cover of Lionheart carefully, you can see a
hidden symbol that says "KT" (it's written on the crate).

o  Gaffa is DUCT TAPE!

o  Kate does this one piece with Peter Gabriel which I forgot the
name of off hand.

o  Kate's song "Rocket Man" was NOT written by her!

o  "Army Dreamers", if you look at the lyrics carefully, you realize
is an ANTI-WAR song.

o  The song "Houdini" is about some magician named Houdini.

o  The version of "Wuthering Heights" on 'The Whole Story' is NOT
the same version as is on 'The Kick Inside'.

Any more facts we may not have known?

P.S.  Here's some more I forgot:  Kate Bush, despite repeated denials,
was heavily influenced by Tori Amos.  Kate invented the Macarena.
Kate discovered David Gilmore of Pink Floyd fame.  Kate has done
commercials before, most notably with Wendy's (she's the one who
popularized the phrase "Where's the Beef").  Kate will be touring next year.
