It's strange to hear Kate sing so plainly about break-ups - the mundane details like going to pick up your things. It's what makes You're the One so heartbreaking - it cuts to the core of it all and shows us some of Kate's vulnerability, which is what makes The Red Shoes such a unique album to me.

We've tied ourselves in knots
Done cartwheels across the floor
Just FORGET IT

Absolutely agree, the line about "I'll pick up all my things" is mundane but so effective. It always really stuck with me.
 
Get Out of My House inspired me to write an entire album of lyrics for URAPOPSTAR based on The Shining :disco: :D

It really is EVERYTHING.
 
The Kick Inside is GORGEOUS. I always forget the moments of sheer beauty in her early work. Again, mouth droppingly mature for such a young debut.
 
The entirety of A Sky of Honey is fucking amazing so Somewhere in Between is automatically fucking amazing. The GROOVE, the just after sundown atmosphere, MAGIC HOUR :disco:
 
Jig of Life is just an epic. The way it just keeps GOING AND GOING. The urgency.
 
Aerial really is such a euphoric closer and the perfect ending to a perfect playlist! Thank you @Iguana, gutted I didn't get to do this at the time with you all but I'm glad I got to experience it albeit a week late! :disco:
 
I want to be up on the roof
I've gotta be up on the roof
Up, up high on the roof
Up, up on the roof
In the SUUUUUUUUUN

Yay glad you liked it! I think you really need to give that bubble friend the boot. The fact that you didn't stare him in the eyes when he got there early and scream GET OUT OF MY HOUSE into his face before braying like a mule is, regrettably, very disappointing to me.

Oh the temptation to TURN INTO THE MULE was THERE ALRIGHT
 
I can’t believe I’ve lived with the Hounds of Love album all this time without realising there are two dogs on the cover. I only noticed because Nerina Pallot posted about just noticing. Having thought about it maybe I did know and just forgot I knew. I can’t decide.

If anyone still reads magazines this month’s Classic Pop takes an album by album look at Kate’s discography.

Tori Amos on Kate Bush in 1998:

“I’ll never forget the first time I heard about Kate,” Amos recalls. “I was playing in a club, I was 18 or 19 and somebody came up to me, pointed their finger and said, Kate Bush. I went, Who’s that?"

Kate Bush when asked by Mojo if she liked Tori's music in 2006:"*long pause* Can we talk about Rolf Harris instead?"

What does running up a hill really signify? I don't know POETRY CRITIC FOR THE TIMES, have you tried LISTENING TO THE SONG?
 
I mean come on, it's a song about seeing things from the perspective of a different gender with the lyric "Let's exchange the experience". OK, the terminology doesn't hold up well today, but that alone is KIND OF CLEVER
 
Today!

Some gormless little twerp in his twenties is offering his critique on the lyrics of Kate, Bowie, and Leonard Cohen.
 
The critic has clearly not had to run up a hill towards the end of a tough run to have missed the literal and basic meaning of the line and it’s context within this song. They just want a reaction.

Just what the world needed.

I guess with new Kylie, Garbage, Jessie Ware and Marina today, the universe had to somehow correct itself.
 
A good lyricist but not a great one?

Okay hun, that's why there are literal BOOKS out there of her oeuvre but you GO OFF.

There's a city, draped in net
Fisherman net
And in the half light, in the half light
It looks like every tower
Is covered in webs
Moving and glistening and rocking
It's babies in rhythm
As the spider of time is climbing
Over the ruins

Good, but not great. :)
