I love Kate she is very creative through both her lyrics and music videos, I love both Babushka and Wuthering Heights

When it comes down to it there is no other and will never be another kate bush
Oh, I don't know. The excellent PJ Harvey doesn't sound too unlike her these days.

I love Kate for her ambiguous lyrics and her simplistic eccentricity!

Kate i really hope when she releases new material puts herself out there a little bit, maybe an interview with Norton or on Jools Holland too

Hounds Of Love is just one of those defining landmark albums for me and i absolutely love blasting it, if only for The Ninth Wave too!
A Jools Holland special with short interview and half a dozen piano songs would be amazing wouldn't it (not such a fan of Norton myself).

Completely agree about The Ninth Wave - more of that please Kate!

Hey digit al + oldtimer55

*edit - few weeks since he released it on Kate's Birthday, but if you haven't listened to Alphan's Song Of Solomon - Music Box version, check it out - beautiful!

Cheers for the link!

Added a link to my above post, hope it's your cup of tea, I really like it.

He's working on another more traditional Alphan 'early Kate demo' remix at the moment, so looking forward to that!

Yeah, doing good, thanks. New job as assistant network manager in a secondary school and we've ripped the whole thing to bits (the network, not the school! heh), so here's hoping it's all back up and running before the kids are back in a couple of weeks! *gulp*.

Hope all is good at your end - Mark.

I cannot wait for an actual return soon musically! Something different. I mean i dont have Directors Cut just yet but it proved how faithful fans are

ROCK ON KATE!

Good news!

"There will be a new album this year. There is a track called 'Wild Man'. Tomorrow (September 7th) there will be an announcement on Facebook. BUT probably NO name and NO date will be announced. Just that the album is ready to be released later this year.
Speculations are that Wild Man will the first single and the release date is November 18th in Europe 21th UK... BUT THIS IS NOT CONFIRMED!"

That's great

I have a feeling she could win the Achievement award at The Brits. She is worthy of it.

Oh definitely, i know she loves to keep low profile! BUT I think this is the time where she really is recognised. I mean PJ Harvey had a low profile and a sustained following.....and now get her with her well deserved mercury Prize and she is practically all over the shop with what she has achieved....imagine that for Kate!

New material, and some live performances televised and a commemorative Brit Award for her too (she may not be required to perform but for her to win it would be phenomenal!)

I love her low profile and her underatedness. I think that's what keeps her unique and very much down to earth.

hi guys, Kate wont ever tour again....i think we can be sure of that but i'd love to be proved wrong. anything she did do, i think would be on a small scale. i'd love to see her headline Glastonbury and maybe do a week of gigs at the albert hall or some such place but thats just me wishing!
[B]regarding the new album, i'd put money on a november release with nothing more than a couple of promo interviews...all done and dusted in time to get her christmas shopping in
[/b]and, i very much doubt Kate reads this or any other thread.....Del palmer on the other hand?
could my prediction be true

This will be a beautiful album....cannot wait to hear her new material. Been too long, stil dont have her Director Cut album yet! May buy the deluxe soon as i dont have Red Shoes yet either....complete my collection that way AND have 50 Words For Snow

But i think it will be a magical album for Winter mood. Like an album you can play different points of the year and have a winter vibe i think

well at least she resisted the temptation to call it bonemeal
considering that the track wildman was mentioned in the internet rumours before the official notice, i wonder if this will be the lead single?

me too, i'm hoping for the coldest, crispest white winter ever!!
lots of long dark frosty nights in which i can listen to Kate's new concept. very few capture a mood like Kate does
