CAT is featured in a danish 1991 music video by danish artist Nikolaj Steen

OK, I understand I can't post the YT video, even the song has nothing to do with Prince,

But I guess discussing the video is OK:

Artist: Nikolaj Steen - feat. CAT with a rap - and appearance in the video,

Song: "Angel"

Year: 1991 (1992?)

The dansih musician and producer Nikolaj Steen had a big hit in Denmark with the single "Angel" back in 1991/92, and tried the US as well but with no luck. The single sold 300,000 copies international and went to #1 in 5 countries, according danish WikiPedia:

tracklist:

1. I Want You
2. Rock You Tonight
3. Angel
4. The New Message
5. Only The Love
6. Wild Child
7. Love Song
8. Don't Go Away
9. Waiting
10. Can't Get Arrested

Now go and see CAT in the music video elsewhere... cool

Nikolaj Steen was trying to have a hit in the US with this song and album, he toured in clubs and small venues in 1991/1992, and the "Angel" video was his try to have a breakthru in America.

The question is why Cat was in this "Angel" video back then:

I remember this...

Nikolaj Steen was in the studio or studio offices in the states (maybe LA?) to record some songs for his album. There was a girl sitting in a chair. Nikolaj thought she was an assistant and asked her for some coffee and she brought him some. It was Nokolaj's sidekick who recognised Cat, and Nikolaj apologised. They got talking and one thing led to another. This is how I remember Nikolaj Steen telling the story when the video premièred on Danish tv.

Ps Luv4u why do you believe the Nikolaj Steen & Cat video is fake. Cat is in this video "Angel" - you better believe this, it's 100% true. Please don't overrule this fact. I won't post the video, this is just discussing the video. I really hope this is allowed. Peace.

I posted associated artist video's from youtube on my "brief history" threads.

I also posted an entire thread made up of associated artist videos.

Obviously the mods in this forum were sleeping that month.

This video has nothing to do with Prince and therefore there is ZERO legal issue here. Cat simply working with Prince at some point is not a reason to enforce this rule. It's not Prince's music, it's not Prince's likeness, etc.

Moderators should not "have final say" when they are not even educated on the rules of this site.

I have to agree, but i will keep this short.

Out of four moderators for this forum alone, not one of them noticed that i had posted over 10 associated artist videos in my threads. Threads which were in the top ten threads of this forum for over two months.

I guess someone is not paying attention, or simply does not care and only applies the rules when it suits.

As Shango proved, it is her. I can also prove it as I own the album LOL.

She also co-writes the lyrics to another song off the album and provides backing vocals on said track aswell.

Interesting story in how they met LOL. I love a couple of the tracks off the album. Never liked "angel" much though LOL

Well produced hightech pop/AOR, with some dubious (but fun) rap thrown in.

^ As a dane, I'm not sure what "spill the beans" mean, but here is the little story again,

how Nikolaj and Cat met:

^ thanks ^ for your story thumbs up!

Idiom Definitions for 'Spill the beans'

If you spill the beans, you reveal a secret or confess to something.

http://www.usingenglish.c...beans.html

"Spill the beans"

Meaning To divulge a secret, especially to do so inadvertently or maliciously. Origin The derivation of this expression is sometimes said to be a voting system used in ancient Greece. The story goes that white beans indicated positive votes and black beans negative. Votes had to be unanimous, so if the collector 'spilled the beans' before the vote was complete and a black bean was seen, the vote was halted. That's plausible, but doesn't account for the fact that the phrase is first found in the early 20th century. It's probably best if we concentrate our search there and ignore ancient Greece. 'Spill' has been used as a verb with the meaning of 'divulge' or 'let out' since at least the 16th century. Edward Hellowes' Guevara's Familiar epistles, 1574, contains an example of that usage: "Although it be a shame to spill it, I will not leaue to say that which... his friends haue said vnto me." That 'let out' meaning was probably influenced by an earlier meaning of 'spill', i.e. 'kill' and the subsequent usage 'spill blood', which was in common use by the 14th century. The earliest uses of 'spill the beans' come from the USA. The meaning of the phrase was then something like 'spoil the beans' or 'upset the applecart', which harks back to the supposed Greek knocking over of a bean container. The first example I can find is from The Stevens Point Journal, June 1908: "Tawney, when he came to congress, wasn't welcomed within the big tent. He had to wait around on the outside. Then the blacksmith [Jim Tawney] got busy. He just walked off the reservation, taking enough insurgent Republicans with him to spill the beans for the big five." Soon after that the phrase was used with the meaning of 'upset a previously stable situation by talking out of turn', which is close to how we use it today. That is cited in The Van Wert Daily Bulletin, October 1911: "Finally Secretary Fisher, of the President's cabinet, who had just returned from a trip to Alaska, was called by Governor Stubbs to the front, and proceeded, as one writer says, to 'spill the beans'." We have 'spill', meaning 'divulge', but why beans? Well, it could have been almost anything. In fact, there are several 'spill the' variants - 'spill the soup', 'spill your guts', or simply, just 'spill'.
