Kate's 'Rocket man' promo video at this link:
NOTE: Although Kate is seen strumming a ukulele in the choruses,
she is not actually playing it and only using it as a prop.
Still, it's a lovely video of hers, she looks so great,
and with all the posing and goofing around you can tell she was
having fun.
