<引自北京音乐台网站>
这是Kate St John给我的第一印象。她似那游离在梦幻国度的折翼天使，一不小心堕入了世俗凡尘，
于是在这寒冷的大雪天里，用她那不食人间烟火的歌声，向人们诉说着她的内心故事。
自从邂逅了Kate和她的声音以后，我就再也不能自已，我用了最大的努力从咖啡店里买走了这张
专辑。以后的每个无眠的夜晚，我都会躺在那柔软的床上，与空气中的Kate作最深入的沟通。她的歌
声总能让我产生无边际的幻想，她的每一首歌都是一个唯美的古典世界。单一的钢琴声凄迷涟漪，加
上低音长笛的沉颤，真的能够摇撼人每一串隐秘的回忆。
再听听Where The Warm Winds Blow，犹如暖流似的弦乐，Kate柔弱的歌声，像虚浮在水
中央般的幽静和轻逸，是治疗烦忧浮躁心情的镇静剂。当然还有最让我着迷的Dark Heavens，这是
永远的迷失，也是永恒的美丽，于是我站在风大的悬崖上，感受这迷失后的美丽。渐渐的我也成为天
国折翼的羽族，头顶是圣洁的天堂，但却被黑暗包围着，因为暴风雨即将来临……

Roger Eno's liner notes:
The making of The Familiar has been a strange affair. It has entailed weeping
outside a Russian hotel and all but adding to a laundry bill in Sardinia. I hope
that what is heard reflects some of this considerable spectrum.
Music aside, the most enjoyable aspect of cracking this was a personal one;
that of making new friends and consolidating old. Kate and Bill, whom I met
purely through this project are a couple of gleamers; buy them a drink when
you see them. I now count these two lovely folk as good chums and that is a
marvellous thing. Among the old friends, Wayne McIntyre was again a pleasure
to work with. A big hand for him.
Among others I'd like to thank - my wife Bee for being a constant help and
support and the best person ever; Kevin Lafley, who in his wisdom introduced
Kate and I to one another; Edwin Maynard, whose laugh kills at fifty yards;
Julian Romanczuk who has lovely eyes; Misha Mahlin; Michael Brook and Harry
Atkinson Licensed Slaughterer who confuses people with his van.
