Dunno why - but I love it - Wasn't expecting it to sound like that and I have it feeling It'll sound other-worldly and beautiful in full.
Hard to say whether it's good or bad from a 30 second clip, but it's definitely a strange direction to take the song.

it's great to see that there's so much love for this project on here but I'm seriously having reservations. It could go either way I guess, it could either be fantasic or it could be atrocious, I'm praying it's not the latter. I think my reservations steam from the fact that I adore The Sensual World album, it's perfect as it is, this is a bit like doing a George Lucas - maybe 'Special Edition' would have been a more appropriate title rather than 'Director's Cut'.
![]() Anyhow, I don't mean to appear negative, it's just all a bit ...well, odd. |

I've got a feeling this is very much intentional promotion myself, rather than 'oh here's a clip' what with the first clip causing a divide, promo pic appearing, then clip being taken down, then this clip today. She hasn't employed Murray Chalmer to be a pretty face! |

They're there in the previous chorus clip, but much lower in the mix.

![]() LOVE the original of course but this reworking is really beautiful too very sonic too!Bertie does Britney ![]() ![]() Here's the 'press release' posted on http://katebushnews.com Quote:
Kate Bush releases her new single, a brand new version of “Deeper Understanding”, on Tuesday April 5. The single is released digitally and had its first play this morning, Monday April 4 on Radio 2. A new short film to accompany the track will be premiered in a few weeks. It’s directed by Kate and stars Robbie Coltrane, Frances Barber and Noel Fielding – and Kate’s son Albert plays the role of the computer programme. He is also featured in the song, singing as the computer programme.
Kate’s new album “Director’s Cut” is released on May 16, the first album to be released on her own label, Fish People, which will be distributed by EMI. The track-listing for the album, which sees her revisit and, in some cases, re-record tracks from two of her classic albums is: FLOWER OF THE MOUNTAIN (a new version of the song originally titled ‘The Sensual World’) SONG OF SOLOMON DEEPER UNDERSTANDING LILY RED SHOES THIS WOMAN’S WORK MOMENTS OF PLEASURE NEVER BE MINE TOP OF THE CITY AND SO IS LOVE RUBBERBAND GIRL Kate says: “Originally when I wrote the song ‘The Sensual World’ I had used text from the end of ‘Ulysses’ by James Joyce, put to a piece of music I had written. When I asked for permission to use the text I was refused, which was disappointing. I then wrote my own lyrics for the song although I felt that the original idea had been more interesting. Well, I’m not James Joyce am I? When I came to work on this project I thought I would ask for permission again and this time they said yes. It is now re-titled ‘Flower Of the Mountain’ and I am delighted that I have had the chance to fulfill the original concept”. All the lead vocals and drums on “Director’s Cut” are new performances, some of the tracks featuring guests including Steve Gadd, Danny Thompson and, on backing vocals, Mica Paris. Three songs have been completely re-recorded, one of which is “This Woman’s Work”. Kate adds: “For some time I have felt that I wanted to revisit tracks from these two albums and that they could benefit from having new life breathed into them. Lots of work had gone into the two original albums and now these songs have another layer of work woven into their fabric. I think of this as a new album”. Kate Bush is currently working on her new album of brand new material. |

A poor update of a track that wasn't that good in the first place. I can see why she decided to redo it, but this is even worse than the original.
Poor show Kate. 5/10 |
