Really-From: Woj <woiccare@clutx.clarkson.edu> Hmmm....I've been thinking...when I read one of the posted interviews (the last long one...I don't remember which one exactly), I remember remember Kate saying that TD and HoL were very male albums for her. As we all know, KT has also said that TSW is "the most feminine re- lease of hers to date. Perhaps that has a lot to do with how we have all reacted to it. I mean, most of us males have been comparing it to HoL and TD and say- ing that it doesn't live up to the old stuff, while as far as I can remember the females who post here have *loved* it. Anyone think there might be relationship between response to the album and sex? woj --- woiccare@clutx.clarkson.edu ps. As an endnote, I recently took a sex role test as part of a psychology test and came up androgynous - so I guess that means that I can like 'em all like I do!

Really-From: gatech.edu!mit-eddie!eddie.mit.edu!henrik@cs.utexas.edu (Larry DeLuca) Well, I guess I'm in touch with my feminine side (or someone's feminine side) 'cos I love the new album - maybe it's only straight men who are afraid to touch their feminine side who have problems with it... Anyway, enough about the Divine Miss B and onto the Divine Miss A! _Strange Angels_ is quite a break for Laurie Anderson from what she's done previously. If you wanted _The Sensual World_ to sound more liek _The Dreaming_, you should (blasphemy, yes, but still, to make a point...) return your copy of _The Sensual World_ and exchange it for _Strange Angels_ (or just paste your favourite picture of you-know-who over Laurie Anderson - oh, but don't do that, the cover is fabulous...). God, what a year!!! First Jefferson Airplane, then Kate Bush, then Rickie Lee Jones, now Laurie Anderson! 1989 is certainly becoming a year to remember! larry...
