21. The Red Shoes (7.75)

The title track from The Red Shoes is up next. I really like this although from this excerpt from The Line The Curve and The Cross (or whatever it's called) shows she really shouldn't act.

What is this doing down so low. This was so different in 1982. Nothing sounded anything like it. f***ing amazing!

20. The Big Sky (7.92)

The lowest of the four singles from HoL takes us into the Top 20. I always loved this track especially the moment she says a cloud looks like Ireland. :wub: Just something about the way it comes across.

 

I just woke up from a dream that Kate Bush was in. :o

 

The Dreaming is difficult enough for a Kate fan to love never mind the general public. It's too manner and wilfully strange.

A truly gorgeous track and one of the highlights of The Red Shoes.

 

Woe!!!! Moments of Pleasure very low but I guess everything else above it is absolute genius. Apart from Rubberband Girl :heehee:

The perfection just keeps rolling on with the title track from The Sensual World. Yes.

3rd track in a 3-way tie for #16 is what I think is one of her most addictive tunes.

One of Kate's great story songs telling the tale of a robbery going wrong, this was her only single not to trouble the Top 75 during the 80s.

Lionheart's biggest hit was another bittersweet tale of actors and outperformed Hammer Horror, hitting the Top 20 (and the vaseline...)

Just for Tony ;)

A good track but why it is quite as high as it is seems a bit strange.

 

It's not awful but I mean, there's at least 25 Kate Bush singles that are better.

Her first single to show what she was really capable of. A truly brilliant and original take on the horrors of nuclear war.
