>> She really is.
My personal equation:
If
(Kate=God)
Then
(Jane=Jesus)
It's a fact!

Now, now. Let's be fair. The advantage to a polytheism is that you don't have to go around deciding who goes where. Everyone is a face of the same great Lady (although some are more attractive faces than others). Lessee... Kate as Brigid? Or maybe Artemis. Actually, I guess it'd change with the songs themselves. Like the Morrigan for "Babooshka," Aphrodite for "The Sensual World," or Diana for "The Big Sky." Can't put one to Jane yet (okay, okay, Vickie, I get the idea! I'll go already! :-) ). Any road. Kate Bush is God *and* Goddess. She really is. -- --------Susan L.

What is the name of the unauthorized biography of Kate in which she is constantly compared to Celtic mythological figures, and finally in the concluding paragraphs is declared an actual deity with the sentence, "Kate Bush is our goddess Frig"? If these people who are deifying her are doing it all in fun, then I'll join in the active worship: my friends introduce me to people with, "This is Meredith- she worships Kate Bush," and I nod my head and grin. But if any of you are serious about this (which I'd like to doubt), that's truly frightening. Kate is awesome, as a composer, singer, video artist,and woman. But could we please get this perfectly clear: *she's human*. She's mortal, just like us, and she was born of fully human parents, no vrigin birth or anything, the same way we all were. Got it? My apologies for this interruption to all of you who, like me, revel in our fandom. But to those of you who may be out there who seriously believe that she's a goddess (and as I said before I don't think that happens, but you never know- in a group of 11,000 people, lots of weird things can occur), GET A CLUE. Fanatic fanaticism leads to horrible results. So if any of this applies to you, seek help immediately! We wouldn't want some crazed fan shooting Margaret Thatcher to get KT's attention, or anything (well, maybe, but that's not the point)... ******************************************************************************** Meredith Tarr "Yeah, Paddy pulled up his trousers real tight, mtarr@eagle.wesleyan.edu and I stood in a bucket."
