OK. I’ll grant you your premise in re: Ms. Bush.

But once I do, can you reassure me that you won’t be following this up with the same pitch on behalf of Tori Amos? :dubious:

I’ve never heard anything by Tori Amos that didn’t go in one ear and out the other. Some people want there to be a connection between her and Kate, but there is none. Absolutely none.
