Sorry, KB fans, I suppose there's no accounting for taste.

I always found Kate Bush repulsive - both to listen to and watch, and about as sexy as a Praying Mantis.

She swoops and dives at the words until they seem to duck, squirm away and run for cover, while visually splaying out pointy limbs like a drunken Buddha in a hideous attempt to be sensual.

For a female vocalist spanning the decades, gimme a rock chick like the truly divine Kristin Hersh any day.

Gads you KB haters

have any of you haters actually listened?

just to name a few great songs:
hello earth
running up that hill
infant kiss

Nah, they just doesn't know what are good.

You forgot to mention Babushka.

I'm quite curious if she can sing just as good as she did back then.

I'm also a little curious about what kind of women that ticks CH - or maybe more correctly - scared. I'm not sure I want to meet them in an dark alley.

Infant kiss

The Infant Kiss
I say goodnight - night,
I tuck him in tight,
But things are not right -
What is this? an infant kiss,
That sends my body tingling.
I've never fallen for,
A little boy before,
No control,
Just a kid and just at school,
Back home they'd call me dirty,
His little hand is on my heart,
He's got me where it hurts me.
Knock, knock, who's there in this baby?
You know how to work me.
Chorus
And all my barriers are going,
It's starting to show.
Let go, let go.
I cannot sit and let,
Something happen I'll regret,
Ooh, he scares me,
There's a man behind
those eyes,
I catch him when I'm
bending.
Ooh, how he
frightens me,
When they whisper
privately,
Windy - wailey, blows me,
Words of caress on their lips,
that speak of adult love.
I want to smack but I hold back,
I only want to touch.
But I must stay and find a way, to stop before it gets too much


not all her songs are siren like (this one is)

I'd recommend 'Army Dreamers' and 'The Sensual World' too.

I could go on and on

just keeping it short and simple

I knew you had taste molly

I remember hearing her first single on the radio among all the usual late 70's trash that came out. Next day I bought her first album

[Heresson]

I don't really know her. I have one album, and I love two songs (one outside this album):
- Wuthering hills. I love it.
- Babooshka. It has very nice lyrics, and nice idea for a video-clip. Moreover, there's something that I really like in this videoclip; there's synchronisation between the music and what happens in the videoclip, also there's synchronisation between the text and what she's doing.

[Mr. Harley]

Kate Bush. Tori Amos.

I like artists that take chances- and she certainly did, in an era when to be young and happening was to have bondage trousers, a nappy, a binliner and a safety pin through your brain, there she was utilising Emily Bronte's novel for her first single and following it up with single b-sides called 'Delius' and songs about dubious sexual relationships and Harry Houdini.

There were few artists I could have thought of as carrying off a 'Ulysses'-inspired song or concept album, but when I heard her song, 'The Sensual World' with its fragmentary references to Molly Bloom's soliloquy and the narrative of Leopold Bloom, I knew she'd done it.

Add that to the Trio Bulgarka (whose music I was also grooving to) and you had an album that has never been far away from the turntable or c.d. player.


And yes, she had those assets which kept the hands of many a teenage boy gainfully employed in the 70s and 80s, too...

Without going into details, I quite agree. She darer to be both aparte and have a brain wich was quite uncommon in those times.

That is the most "katten om den varme grød" description I ever have seen

Oh, and just to scare people a bit :
