I'm super excited about this new offering from Kate and also intrigued...I always thought of Kate as someone who would always be moving forward in terms of her work and not want to look back on projects she had already done. Obviously, I was wrong and actually glad I was. I, too, am puzzled by the album choices. Why just choose two specific albums and not songs from across her entire catalog? Kate is obviously quite the perfectionist so I wonder if she was in someway unhappy with the way these two albums turned out? I sense the reason is far more complex than that since after all she has been producing and writing her albums entirely since The Dreaming. She's been in the driver's seat and certaintly cant' be accused of rushing through an album just for the sake of getting it out to the masses.I hope she does a few interviews regarding this project to give us some insight into its origins. But I'm very much looking forward to hearing these reworked songs and very curious to see which ones she decided to overhaul.
