at this point whatever she finally releases will be subject to so much scrutiny and criticism I almost hope she doesn't put anything out. it's been too long gestating, it might sound stillborn.

Yes but we are still in the realm of rumour - those websites haven't been updated for awhile - so I will shut myself and my enthusiasm up right now and just get back into "resigned" mode where I belong.
She cried when KJ broke up. HA ha ha! Yeah right! Reminds me of an English teacher I had who once told the class she was so easily provoked to cry that she cried when a new Safeway opened up!

Anyway, I see her occasionally in my local branch of Savacentre, so next time I do, I'll ask her how the next album's coming along, OK?
Of course it's possible that I won't see her because, like a lot of people, she may be avoiding the place for the next few months however, 'cos they're busy refurbishing the store so it's complete chaos in there at the moment....
While we're on the subject of supermarkets 'though - surely the opening of a new Safeway should be a cause for great happiness and rejoicing rather than sadness?

Beats me about Placebo, but then I dunno much about that band because, just like their name, they do nothing for me.
I'll be here all week, folks.
But anyway, the important q isSweet Jesus, when will Kate Bush release another album?
To be honest I think the rubberband has actually snapped and the laws of physics have her continuing in one direction and not coming back.

I thought the Red Shoes as an album had a lot going for it next to the surprisingly mediocre Sensual World.
I had forgotten about Mark Grout's poetry showing up here way before I'd seen it on another thread. I wish there was some way to just put "Mark Grout" and "poetry" into the search function and wallah...
Killing Joke doing any Kate Bush song would really be something to behold, I think.

Here then are a few addresses to less expensive places to buy "Aerial". Yes they are in Britain, but do take note of the "Free Worldwide Delivery" banners on the websites. And yes there may be extra import taxes but I don't think they would be much, not with the initial price being this good and no shipping fees to worry about:
http://www.bangcd.com/productDetail.aspx?prod_id=1678http://www.play.com/play247.asp?page=title&r=CD&title=742012&p=34&g=48&pa=rcshttp://www5.cd-wow.com/detail_results.php?product_code=21765
So paste these into your address bar and give it some thought. I've not used bangcd before but the other two I can heartily recommend.
By the way, £1 works out at about $1.80 at the moment. Bit more than you're used to paying perhaps but it sure beats Amazon's $47 import price!
Hope this helps.
BTW, if any of you find a complete set of "Aerial" album lyrics before the release date I'd appreciate a heads-up. Cheers.

Kate BushKate Bush’s new album cover reportedly contains a hidden message that fans are desperate to decode.
Bush’s first album in more than a decade entitled ‘Aerial’ has a soundwave image on the artwork that contains the cryptic message, apparently it is a “visaul representation of spoken, or sung words over music.”
A source told this morning’s Daily Star: “Sound analysts and fans alike have been agonisingly attempting to work out the message. The current favourites are wildly different.”
So far the leading suggestion are ‘We paint penguins pink’, 'Elvis is alive’ and 'Wind and waves of love’ although its not known if any of these are correct.
The source revealed that the plan was to baffle and intrigue the fans, they said: All the artwork on the album is interlinked and the cover art is supposed to get people guessing. The true message will only be revealed when you buy the album.”
The insider also quashed rumours that the second cd of the album will feature one continuous song, saying: The second disc, or B-side, is a number of different songs all linked together by theme to create one fluid piece of music.”

I'm not sure that I was overly keen on it, but at least it confirms the song is completely about Elvis.

I had assumed the reviewer was at the playback - there was definitely a sense of "I'm basing this on one listen and some hastily scribbled notes" about the comments. But if it was an invited journo, why publish on Amazon?

I wonder how much the fact that she isn't moving very 'naturally' is down to years of actual formal dancing & choreography? That said, you would think she'd spot the awkwardness in this video, but then the visual side of her work isn't always ... ummm, consistent to put it mildly.
― fandango (fandango), Monday, 17 October 2005 17:39 (twenty years ago)
Really the video isn't that bad, although some of the animation is a bit "Sledgehammer". If you don't get the Kane references, you're not listening to the song.
