I too have been captured by Kate since I first heard her in the seventies.
To be honest I find myself a little irritated by people who must take too
close a look at an artist's style, talent or personal preferences.

So what if Kate doesn't want to tour. So, she changed the way she sings a
song. I'm lucky enough to be able to have seven of Kate's albums in my car,
and I listen to them almost every day, in order from the old to new.

It is great to hear her albums grow with her as time goes by. And I prefer
to listen to the songs in the context of their own albums and time. All 
things change, some for the better, some for the sadder.

Refresh yourselves with the continuing beauty of Kate and her music. Cast 
aside ye unbelievers your disbelief. Listen to her voice and the music at
the beginning of the second verse of Mna Na h-Eireann and be enriched.

Then for God's sake give it a rest about her touring.

I agree with Xina. Kate is simply beautiful, so leave her alone and just listen.

Ken.
