Re: Kate Bush

Eh, I thought the content of her earlier albums was more thought-provoking than an entire suite of songs based around bird calls or her singing the numbers of pi and having some other dude reciting fifty mostly-made up phrases for snow. Granted those are some of the sillier examples from Aerial and 50 Words, but she consistently delivered songs like "The Kick Inside," "Kashka from Baghdad," "Breathing," and "Deeper Understanding" that had subject matter that were ahead of their time, really -- nobody in 1980 was singing about gay couples and she also basically predicted computer/internet addiction in 1989 before it had become a widespread reality.
 
Re: Kate Bush

She's so lovely!

I actually had a lengthy conversation on Friday night about wonderful this song is:

 
Re: Kate Bush

Thanks for posting that remix! I've always loved Running Up That Hill ever since it debuted in 1985. So haunting and tribal.

I love this song too. No wonder she and Peter Gabriel recorded a duet. They have some thematic and stylistic commonalities.

 
So, Kate Bush...

Back on stage after 35 years. Tonight was her first show.

Is anyone going to see her, during her run of shows at Hammersmith Apollo? I'm going with my other half, and two friends on Saturday 6th Sept. Can't wait!! Going to be one of few people in the world that will be able to say that I've seen her live!! :D :D :D
 
Re: So, Kate Bush...

Enjoy the concert. Didn't realize how big she is over there--I knew she was popular (she is on a music website I blog on) but it's like major news on the BBC website. Have to look her up and find out why she disappeared for so long.
 
Re: So, Kate Bush...

The only time she truly disappeared was when she had her son and simply didn't have time to record between her 1993 and 2005 albums. She is a very private, grounded person who does her own housekeeping and didn't rely on nannies to raise her child. She's been putting out material every few years again which is nice.
 
Re: So, Kate Bush...

I love her music.
 
Pick a song from the poll or specify which one you like in a comment.
 
Gosh, let me count them.

The Kick Inside - "The Saxophone Song," "Kite," "The Man with the Child in His Eyes"
Lionheart - "Wow," "Hammer Horror"
Never for Ever - "Breathing"
The Dreaming - "Sat in Your Lap," "Night of the Swallow"
Hounds of Love - like, all of it?
The Sensual World - see above, but my username sort of comes from one of the songs on this album, so...
The Red Shoes - "Rubberband Girl" <3
Aerial - "King of the Mountain," "Somewhere in Between," "Nocturn"
 
Don't Give Up and This Woman's Work and about 20 others.
 
I like most of her music.

She was before my time, but I have to say that she has a very unique way about her.

I will have to get back to you on this answer.;)
 
Right now (changes daily) I'd have to say Watching You Without Me. But the entire Hounds of Love is a masterpiece. Plus I have special affection for The Dreaming and The Sensual World albums. Aerial was solid comfort to me when my mother died. Most of the songs are great. Maybe Red Shoes is the weakest. But I still like the songs.

Kate Bush, Hammersmith Apollo, review: 'still wondrous, rich and powerful'

Singer defies weight of expectation on her comeback live performance to thrill audience with her theatrical imagination and undiminished voice

The weight of anticipation bearing down on Kate Bush's 5ft 2inch frame ahead of her opening night must have been near unbearable. With 77,000 tickets sold out in 15 minutes for the 22 shows, let alone the acres of column inches given over to her Lazarus-like return to live performance after 35 years, Bush, who has often confessed to stage fright, must have been petrified.

Not that any of us would know. Bush makes Kate Moss seem voluble and shrouded in secrecy, all anyone was certain of was that the 56-year-old mother wouldn't be doing something as unseemly as donning the tight leotard, or thigh high leather boots from the Babooshka video that caught so many men's attention when she arrived on the scene.
She has no need. Bush has proved over the course of ten albums to be a rare star who has, as shown by the hysteria over this return, gathered more fans over the decades, despite or perhaps even because of her singular musical path and elusive presence.

Re: Kate Bush

Tracey Thorn - Under The Ivy (Kate Bush cover)

Tracey Thorn writes:

"For me, like many others, the musical highlight of the year was Kate Bush’s return to the live stage, with her show Before the Dawn. It was an incredible performance, and after I saw it I wrote a piece for the New Statesman about how much it moved me.

When I was asked to be guest editor for the Radio 4 Today programme, I realised immediately that one thing I wanted to do was pay tribute in some way to Kate. I’ve never sung any of her songs before, and I’ve chosen a lesser known one called Under the Ivy, recording it with Ben Watt on piano, and a string arrangement written by Nick Ingman. Her version of the song originally appeared as a B-side to Running up that Hill, back in the days when every record had a B-side, a place where often a great song could be semi-hidden.

That feeling of concealment is particularly relevant to this lyric, which is all about privacy and intimacy, hiding “away from the party”, meeting someone in a safe and secret place. It could be about a lover of course, but I also think it partly describes Kate Bush as an artist. In contrast to many music stars, she’s lived a proper private life, devoting much of her time and her energies to her family. And even with these amazing Before the Dawn shows, I don’t really feel that she was entering back into the public arena of the music business, more that she briefly invited us into her world, giving us a glimpse of all the things she can do. For that, and for this beautiful song, I thank her and hope I’ve done it justice."
