kate bush not everyones cup of tea but im a big fan

[zzxxee]

is she working on any new material ??
or is she still a recluse living with her secret child??

[andy-hughes]

Kate Bush is not a 'recluse' - she simply proves that anyone who is famous can live a normal life if they so choose. Her child has been to nursery and is in school, and she takes him, and chats with the other mums.

Walk down the street - no problem - Kate Bush. Go jogging in Leeds at six a.m. wtih half-a-dozen mam-mountain black guys wearing shades and yabbering into radios - cause a fuss - Madonna.

The writer Quentin Crisp told me that famous people who 'hide' in this way convince themselves that the world is desparate to see and know them, but the reality is that the world is really not that bothered.

For the record, i think that Kate Bush is one of the few musicians to whom the word 'genius' can be legitimately applied. the fact that she wants to be a musician and not a 'celebrity' simply increases her worth in my eyes.

i think we all get sucked into what is posted in the tabloids its good that she lives a normal life with her child
will she be relesing any new stuff anytime soon andy ???
i think shes fab xx

[Bbbananas]

I think Kate Bush is fab also. (I got mistaken for her a couple of times when Wuthering Heights was at its height (!) Doesn't she live on the south coast of Britain - and not a recluse, but just keeps herself to herself.

[gazzawazza]

Good for her. Well said Andy.

[LoftyLottie]

Amazing singer. I agree with Andy. On a par with Bjork for me. Wonder if Andy will agree though ;o)

Great fan of Kate - I have bought the Kick Inside 7 times 2 Vinal - 3 Tapes (wore them out) - 2 CD Lost one but found it now :-)

She has a house in Blackheath london and I once saw her in a pub and no one bothered her, no even me.

[zzxxee]

[Sachs]

Hi z !
I've always loved Kates music! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kate_Bush

[Davethedog]

She had an album a couple of years ago called Ariel - It was about then

[Justincider]

The Kick Inside is my 2nd favourite album of all time. I saw her at the London Palladium in 1979 one of her few live performances.

[Backdrifter]

She's one of those people who, for me, falls into a sort of Bob Dylan category - I respect them and acknowledge their creativity, longevity and influence, but I don't really much like their work myself. I find her vocal style very mannered and not easy to listen to, but at least it's not formulaic identikit R&B warbling

[Backdrifter]

Ariel "a couple of years ago" Dave? try 2005! Time files...

[Davethedog]

2005?? Your not wrong Backdrifter.

Justincider - Whats No1?

[zzxxee]

[Justincider]

In answer to davethedog my favourite album of all time is 'a trick of the tail' by genesis

[BillyBB]

Sorry OT
DaveTheDog do you happen to live near the portobello road and drive a white van?

Why did I think Kate Bush lived in Ireland?
