Hello all you Kate fans.  
Just got back and the reading is interesting.

Just a couple of questions/observations

I had a tip from a source in New York that Kate was going to be there
sometime.  This was in about May.

Next thing I know, I saw a video for some sort of environmental group
doing a Live - Aid type song, and Kate was in it.  I only got a glimpse
and a quick listen before someone change the channel on me, and I
have heard nothing of it since.

Any one know what the song, video, orginization was, or is this 
something no one has heard of.

And no, I am not crazy, I am sure I saw her.  If I remember, she was a little 
plumper than on the last album, but coming down nicely from some pictures
of her about a year ago.

Thats all for now, talk later, Danny

PS, and don't flame me for this.  This is about the song 'And dream of
sheep" (spelling is off I know that)

To me that little section in the middle where a voice comes in sounds like
a radio anouncer and he is giving a radio forcast.

Yes, Yes?, No, No?  Which is it.

Again, Danny

Hello my fellow Kate worshippers(is that word strong enough..?)-

	I am not positive of all the details, but I am quite sure that the song
in question was by an organization called Ferry Aid, which was put
together by a bunch of well-known English recording artists a few years
ago to raise funds for the survivors and families of the victims of a
ferry disaster in the U.K. somewhere.  Sorry my memory fails me but if
any of this can help you at all.. anyway, the song was a remake of `Let
It Be' by you-know-who, and Kate had one line near the end, which ends
in `Mother Mary comes to me'.  And that is really all I know.  I have
seen the single for sale in record stores that carry a lot of imported
singles, so I don't think it would be impossible to find at all.  And
Danny, you are not crazy or else I am too, and that would be very
curious indeed.
