rolleyes It's the worst moment on what I consider to be a poor effort from her. If it was my only problem with the album, we wouldn't be having this conversation.


King Of The Mountain
Pi
How To Be Invisible
A Coral Room
Sunset
Somewhere In Between
Nocturn

You don't like any of those? eek


I like a few tracks on the album but overall it is crap and I didn't purchase it.

GangstaFam hates The Dreaming whereas you and I love it, so....

Hounds of Love is one of my all time favorite albums.

I wish there were an instrumental version of it, too. I love the lyrics and her singing style but songs like Cloudbusting and Running Up That Hill would also sound great as instrumentals.

Another favorite album of mine is The Sensual World. But I prefer Hounds Of Love.

I get really nasty looks from people when it's on. For some strange reason they're very irritated by her voice lol

Strange Phenomena is vomit inducing unlike anything on HOL

They’re just not tuned in properly; tuned into the frequency of coolness…

The Kick Inside has some of the most unique vocals ever committed to record, at least in my top 50 (though I never made a list of my top 50 albums) and superior to HOL (imo ofcourse, lest anyone think I'm making a decree)

I’ll take Strange Phenomena over the melodramatic And Dream Of Sheep or the contrived Goth of Under the Ice. The Kick Inside is more ethereal to me and captures the Kate Bush aesthetic more because it relies on her unique vocals, rather than the lush sounds of HOL. The Kick Inside doesn’t have anything on it as good as Running Up That Hill or Cloudbusting, but on The Kick Inside she’s soo young and soo high-pitched. I love it, I love everything about that record, everything about David Gilmour finding her. How great do those songs sound on the Hammersmith concert!


Ditto to that. It's just I have a thing for cold and wierd..

I still say nothing on TKI can compare to songs in my first post. Actually I think it's wrong to compare TKI with HOL. Very different in sound. More fair comparison would be HOL vs The Dreaming

My favourite songs:

1) Jig Of Life:
I dont even know what the hell she's talking about but it still is one of the most exciting music I heard


Going back to this for a second, it's about the future self telling the present self to hold on to life and see it through.

I feel more connected with The Sensual World. The songs on that album makes me cry.....but The Hounds of Love is her most thought out and creative pieces. I love how the songs tie in with each other to tell a story. For those hearing it for the first time....I tell them not to skip any songs.....or they'll miss the whole point. smile

Where'd you hear this. I need to read up.

In the 15th October edition of the London event guide Time Out, there is a report that one of their writers bumped into Kate at the premiere of "Maddie" at the Lyric Shaftesbury theatre, and that the conversation turned to Björk. It seems that Björk sent Kate a demo she had made of Kate's song Moving in 1989 and that they have since kept in touch. The article claims that "In fact they have been talking about the possibility of a duet".

Also, in the November issue of Q magazine, Björk has the following to say in relation to Kate:

"I remember being underneath my duvet at the age of twelve, fantasising about Kate Bush, but I don't want to make a big thing out of it. I would love it and hate it to be compared to Kate Bush, because I'd be very honoured to be compared to such a genius, but at the same time, It's important to me that I have my own individuality and my own voice"

I remember reading that.

For the longest "Heads We're Dancing" was my favorite from SW....but now it's "Rocket's Tail". How can you not love the vocals on that.

The title track is my favourite. What a beautiful piece of music.
Only Reaching Out and Between A Man A Woman pass me by. The rest of the album is wonderful.

I love Between a Man and a Woman.....but yeah "Reaching Out" is the only song on that album that I'm not crazy about. I remember reading a review and seeing someone say that it sounds like a bad Barbara Streisand song lol
