circumstantial tree Posted March 16, 2006 Share Posted March 16, 2006 I really need to start purchasing her back catalog. Somehow, "Babooshka" looks familiar. Maybe she had a video on MTV back in the early 80's? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nunavuter Posted March 16, 2006 Author Share Posted March 16, 2006 (edited) Start with Hounds of Love. It is perhaps unfare to send anyone to that album straight off, but it is the one that clinches or breaks the bond. It is her masterpiece.

"Running Up that Hill (A Deal with God)" and "Cloudbuster". I love both of these but never thought of buying the CD. I may just have to though.

circumstantial tree Posted March 21, 2006 Share Posted March 21, 2006 Anyone here have a favorite Kate tune? I only have "Aerial" right now, but I can only narrow it down to Disk 2, the one about the birds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moonraker Posted March 21, 2006 Share Posted March 21, 2006 Narrow it down to one song? There are many but if I had to just one, it would be Get Out Of My House off of The Dreaming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PuppetKing2112 Posted March 22, 2006 Share Posted March 22, 2006 Hmm, one? No, can't do that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nunavuter Posted March 25, 2006 Author Share Posted March 25, 2006 Just one? Like, if I was forced onto an island, and I was only allowed to pick one song and never get to hear any others? In that case, I would probably go with "Hello Earth" off of HoL, but I'd be second-guessing that the moment i said it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nunavuter Posted May 8, 2006 Author Share Posted May 8, 2006 Some Interesting vids from over on YouTube Kate rehearsing the "Sat in your Lap" video from a 1982 BBC show. And here is the most insane piece of Kate footage you will ever see. It is from a 1979 appearance on Japanese a TV. The video quality is awful, but you soon learn that this does not matter. It is a production of Rolling the Ball, played in the cheesiest "TV Variety Show" style (bad horn section et al), and Kate appears on stage in gigantic red bell-bottoms with a chorus of male dancers...and performs the most jaw-dropping, insenely over-the-top number you've ever seen her do. The video Kate does not want you to see Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nunavuter Posted May 10, 2006 Author Share Posted May 10, 2006 I am the Kate Bush missionary among the Rush fans. The original style of Them Heavy People is much less brassy. The Japanese show didn't even get the name right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greg Posted May 12, 2006 Share Posted May 12, 2006 I'm a fan of her and her music. She's very talented and has a beautiful voice. But for some reason, me and my friends have always called her Kate's Bush. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

circumstantial tree Posted June 10, 2006 Share Posted June 10, 2006 Nah, I haven't gotten anything else yet by Kate. I will eventually though. Here's a pic of Kate Bush I found by accident. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v312/kellyparis/k249.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nunavuter Posted June 23, 2006 Author Share Posted June 23, 2006 That would be about 1986 or 1987... I like this one. http://gaffa.org/wow/k157.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VT is where now? This isn't meant as a pissing contest. It is just an illustration of how niche acts that get little support try to survive in the current music industry.

2 Soups Posted June 23, 2006 Share Posted June 23, 2006 (edited) I bought Aerial the week it was released...before that, while Kate was away I found solace with Tori Amos, oft compared to Kate. I think they're both brilliant. Edited June 23, 2006 by 2 Soups Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
