nice!

 

[financeguy]

Good stuff.

 

[annabelle]

Great news! Thanks for that

 

[joyfulgirl]

Wow! That should be interesting.

 

[yertle-the-turtle]

I've been very slowly getting into her music lately. She's got a wonderful voice.

 

[Bono's shades]

I've heard rumors about this for ages, but I honestly thought Axl Rose would release Chinese Democracy or hell would freeze over before it finally happened.

Double album

 

[dandy]

wow, i'm stunned and thrilled.

 

[jimmmm]

about time, hope the wait was worth it. Hope its similar to The Kick Inside, undoubtedly her best work to date

 

[{paintedroses}]

Exciting! Can't wait to hear the album..

 

[Dutch Partygirl]

Very curious about this one... I love The Kick Inside...

 

[Aardvark747]

^Ditto. I wonder how she'll sound
She lives near me now btw, I drive past her house now and then

 

[famous rungi]

NO WAY

 

[Aardvark747]

"Yes way Ted!"

 

[LarryMullen's POPAngel]

Wow, I haven't heard anything from her in years.

 

[Reggie Thee Dog]

Kate Bush is what Tori Amos wishes she could be. She is a musical genius if only because she takes all different genres of music and makes it accessible to all.

I love Hounds Of Love, and The Red Shoes. I'm glad she's finally gotten over her problems and decided to put some music together again.

 

[blueeyedgirl]

Very first single I bought myself was Wuthering Heights. Kate is so cool.

Prompted by this thread I went googling and found some Kate forums. One of them had a "Have you had sex to Kate's music?" I haven't seen that replicated here lately.

I've never heard the Red Shoes though, is it any good?

Oh, I love Tori but I agree, Reggie.


The Red Shoes is amazing.

'The Man With The Child In His Eyes' has got to be one of my favorite songs ever.

I might have agreed at one time but I feel Tori came into her own so long ago that the comparison to Kate is insulting, really, at this point. She is her own person doing her own thing and I honestly don't think Tori is wishing she were Kate in any way.

That said, I saw her at Red Rocks Monday night and one of the highlights for me was that she had reworked "God" (which had become very tiresome for me over the years) weaving "Running Up that Hill" into it throughout. It was amazing.

 

[yertle-the-turtle]

So...I downloaded the single. Am listening to it now. I'm still quite unfamiliar with Kate's work but so far (30 seconds) I'm digging it.

 

[yertle-the-turtle]

Ok I've uploaded it for those of you who want it:

Incidentally I found the original file on google. It brought up a YSI link for me. This is a new upload, though.

 

[joyfulgirl]

Thanks. I think I like it. I think it could grow on me. She sounds great.

Here's a link to Tori Amos doing "Running Up that Hill/God" at Red Rocks.

[jimmmm]

great to have her back

 

[Bono's shades]

I'm digging this song. Welcome back, Kate! I've missed you.

 

[Saracene]

That's fantastic news!

 

[drumkeeran]

Just received the news of new Kate from a dear old (college days) friend who introduced me to her music more than 20 years ago (I really am getting old)!

I cannot wait. I'll have to go check iTunes.

 

[mdw3935]

I love Kate Bush and cannot wait to hear this. Hounds Of Love was the first album I brought of hers. I remember seeing the video for Running Up That Hill on Mtv in the mid 80's and just being mesmerized by her voice.

The song This Woman's Work still can get me emotional when I listen to it.
