I was curious to see exactly what "Five Star Rotation" means on VH-1, so I used my handy-dandy VCR and fast-forward button to determine the following: Between 4:00 am and 4:00 pm PST "This Woman's Work" was played four times, i.e. about once every three hours. There are nine videos currently in "Five Star Rotation" (_Billboard_ says eight; this is one of several errors in _BB_'s lists). From 12:00 noon to 4:00 pm a 5* video was played once every 20 minutes, on average. Note that this agrees with the frequency of four times in twelve hours for any one particular 5* video. Note for Jane Siberry fans: According to _BB_, VH-1 has added the video for "Life Is A Red Wagon". However, I didn't see it in all my viewing. In fact, I haven't seen any of the videos which _BB_ says VH-1 has just added. I suspect this is _BB_'s error, like when they said VH-1 added "The Sensual World" several weeks before it was actually added. But in any case this new Jane video probably will start showing up on VH-1 sometime. Note for Laurie Anderson fans: VH-1 has been showing a lot of short clips of Laurie lately. They give the name of the album as _Strange Animals_. Is this for real, or has VH-1 made a tremendous error? Ed Suranyi ed@das.llnl.gov
