Well, I wouldn't expect much from VH-1 or MTV anyways. VH-1 not only disappointed me personally in not playing one Kate video, but also skipping over others whom I like, for instance Enya (but they had time to show almost all the En Vogue videos they had just prior). Oh well... There is some hope for the MTV Networks. I was shocked out of my couch potato position this past week when I was able to catch the Kate video to "The Sensual World" this past week on M2. First time I have seen a Kate video on any MTV network channel in years. So there are some Kate videos left in the MTV network archives afterall. We'll see if they play anymore for Katemas.
