When this video is on, I can't take my eyes off her... She's not naked, slutty, or anything... Someone explain this phenomenon. www.youtube.com/watch?v=AJc64xncBt4Oh yeah, I recently got into her with the Sat in Your Lap video off of youtube. I bought 5 CDs, 2 VHS' that I converted to DVD, and downloaded some stuff... Call me hooked.

Hey Hooked. The phenomenon is best explained, to me, by the sensual delivery of provocative lyrics. The sexual imagery and metaphors, inspired by the Joyce's "Ulysses" makes it a vicariously visceral experience.

All I had ever heard, in the past was Running Up That Hill...
I thought it was mediocre, when I was a kid.
She's for adults.

A late welcome to the site from me..
Running Up That Hill is a profound piece of work indeed. As you say, It needs a set of adult ears of course, but heard at a time when one is ready to appreciate it, then mediocrity is not a factor..
I enjoyed your comments on TSW, look forward to reading more..

As you say, It needs a set of adult ears of course, but heard at a time when one is ready to appreciate it, then mediocrity is not a factor.. I enjoyed your comments on TSW, look forward to reading more.. Well, I am just discovering this great artist. As I said before, when I was a stupid kid, it didn't appeal to me at all. But hearing it, now, I don't think it was meant for teens, anyway. I just watched the "Under Review" DVD. I think she's amazing, in how she puts out a CD & vanishes for a few years. Only toured once. Amazing. She doesn't bow to record exec's whims, except the name "Running Up That Hill" (The original title was "A Deal With God"). Of course, being extremely hot doesn't hurt anything. But she is hot in full dresses. She doesn't need to show skin to turn on a male. I swear, if I were rich & lived where she does, I'd marry her.

Lol..
I don't think you'd need to be rich. Her previous track record suggests that being a musician might help. Given their comparative lack of success, I doubt that either Del or Danny were wealthy when she became involved with them.
As for marriage, join the queue my friend..

I completely agree and I understand why she appeals to men and no doubt lots of women too and I'm a hetrosexual girl! She doesn't force anything I suppose, she doesn't look desperate for attention - even, oddly, when she was young and theatrical. Untouchableness is very sexy in a man so I guess it must work the other way. It's so refreshing to not have to look at acres of flesh too. Christina Aguilera must be the complete female antithesis of Kate, which is probably why she is boring (to me folks, to me)
She (Kate) can look anything from nice and sweet to shockingly stunning. But ultimately - interesting. I think she must be THE most beautiful woman in the world - I don't understand the Kate Moss or Naomi Campbell thing? She definitely has the WOW factor. The only other woman I think looks fascinating and have trouble taking my eyes off of is Catherine Zeta Jones but she doesn't have the delicacy of Kate. I like her though. She looks like a robust spades a spade kind of girl.

You know; someone who calls a spade a spade is someone down to earth - they don't try to 'big' it up. Hang on,
"To speak directly, precisely, and forthrightly" is the definition.

I think she must be THE most beautiful woman in the world ... I must agree with so much of this. She moves me and is attractive to me in ways I don't begin to understand. She is a complex and challenging woman without doubt. I recall the first of my 2 very brief meetings with her (sorry, I'm not boasting or name dropping). I was surprised at how petite she was, and how she was actually entirely unremarkable. But when she actually looked at me and her eyes opened wide.. in a flash she was a whole other person.. Never experienced anything like it before or since. Apparently, Marliyn Monroe had the same effect on people - she could pass you in the street unrecognised and then stun you with the briefest of looks. Somehow though, with MM, you suspect that this was the contrived skill of an actress and the effect was always calculated to dazzle..
