ok - I agree that looking at worst 5s could be "kinda interesting", my "pissed off gaffacomputer" yarn was meant to be slightly tongue in cheek. I suppose it just feels wrong though. We're not analysing a long deceased artist. but a living, breathing one, who is highly self critical and has asked us "to be kind to my mistakes". And then the plea to "the heavy people" to "please feel it". Maybe where a song doesn't seem to work it is us who have failed to keep up and understand it, and not Kate who has written a pile of poo. And as for "Dongerous!" well...you can't stand The Ninth Wave??? HOW CAN YOU S A Y THAT??! My point proven? Each to their own I suppose.
