    Can I ask, and I don't mean to cause any offence, but what is it about this woman that makes everyone so consumed. I'm not having a pop at her music, music is an individual taste. But I just don't understand the level of hype.

    She seems like one of those artists that could do a gig that involves her just on the mic singing "no one likes us, we are Millwall from the den" and NME would be falling over themselves to say stuff like 'epic journey to the soul of a master' or some bollocks like that

    I genuinely don't know why every time she has a tour or people talk of her she seems to be positioned as a musical goddess.

    Again this isn't having a pop, I like one of her songs that got played on extras. I just want to understand why the hype.

    This, a lot!

    I don't know really. I suppose it's a bit like being at your wildest house party and getting your groove on. Your mates think you're the funniest guy but you think you're the best songwriter then you stop and think one direction are better whilst reading Charlton life as you take a piss.

    I know your mates like to read what you read...

    She'd moved to Brockley by the time she hit fame, a few doors down from some friends of mine.

    Obviously not to everyone's taste but a musical genius, absolutely unique.

    She's this year's fleetwood mac , they were that year's kraftwerk . Artists or bands you never heard any of your mates mention they were that into but then they announced a comeback and those same mates cried because they couldn't get a ticket.

    Dont know about every time, I think this is only the second one she has ever done and the latest is hardly a tour, more of a residents.
    She was and is very original.

    I suppose if I lived in the UK I'd have fancied going to see the show. However, sounds like she did some weird stuff rather tan play the hits (that familiar chant from a few gig's I've seen....'play the old stuff'). That's all okay, but I reckon a lot of those who went wanted to hear Wuthering Heights, Cloudbursting and Them Heavy People, so really a bit of a beard stroking show for us arty type's who spend two hours in a pub drinking bitter and arguing about 'what Kate was really trying to express. In the end I'm glad I did'nt go. Maybe I'll spend the money I saved on a greatest hits CD.

    Never really thought of Kraftwerk in the same class as Fleetwood Mac or Kate Bush.

    Maybe more Paper Lace or The Brotherhood of Man.

    She was in the same class at School with my ex Sister in law. According to her, she was a very creative unusual girl, a bit of a loner.

    My mum went to school with Sheila Hancock.

    She had a certain allure a je ne sais quoi that other singers of the time did not.

    That's why I liked her anyway.

    From what I can gather speaking to others it is because she rarely steps into the limelight, so perhaps it is so anticipated when she does.

    Me to. Nothing to do with dancing without a bra in a skin tight catsuit in what must have been a chilly studio.

    if you don't like her music, then that's why you don't understand.

    Neither did I until I saw her in concert, she is more than a singer she is an artist. Hope HarryAMuse doesn't see this response. Wuthering Heights is still my all time hated record though
