Now Playing: Kate Bush's The Kick Inside.
Have you listened to some Kate Bush today?
Maybe you should.
Wash: Mal, your dead army buddy's on the bridge! Zoe: He ain't dead. Wash: Oh.
'The Message'
Buffista Music 4: Needs More Cowbell!
There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.

Funny, I was just earworming myself with some of her stuff in my head. Oh, and plate o' shrimp.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Damn. The last Kate Bush album I acquired was The Sensual World, which came out in '89. Then I just stopped paying attention. She's only had two studio albums since?
I have The Kick Inside and Lionheart on LP and cassette, which means I haven't listened to them in decades. OTOH, Hounds of Love and The Dreaming are two of my favorite albums, and I still listen to them regularly.
Maybe you should.
Maybe I will. Maybe I'll download The Kick Inside and Lionheart from iTunes or eMusic and listen to them next.

One of them was a disc set, but yeah. She's very slow (one of the many traits she shares with Peter Gabriel). Too slow, I think, although I think she was also raising a family during that period.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Yeah, she was raising her son.
Her two disc set was interesting. There was a song about Pi. In fact, the lyrics were just the number of Pi as I recall.

I've only given it a cursory spin or two, and I really need to get back to it, because I remember enjoying it quite a bit.

There were more lyrics than that, but she does sing Pi to the 100th decimal point.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

It is quite good, and Rolf Harris of all people appears on it.

Oh, The Kick Inside was much better than I remembered it. Thanks, Hec!
Am now listening to Lionheart, which so far is not moving me as much as The Kick Inside....
