Yeah my mum is a big KB fan, she wants to get the album next week! It’s a double I think!
I like the single in the charts now and it did well to get in the top 10! but I don’t know the name of it!

King Of The Mountain is the new single. Ken Bruce has highlighted Aerial all week. I didn’t think the album was out until next week though. I’ve planned to go get it Tuesday. The songs I’ve heard are great: KOTM, How To Be Invisible and Sunset are brilliant, and I rather liked Pi, but Bertie is a bit off. Mrs. Bartolozzi needs a further listen. I’m more eager than ever to hear the full double album. From what I’ve heard so far, it seems it’s worth the 12 year wait.
Eurythmics out the same day, so I’ll be getting them both.

I like Ken Bruce. He announced there’s an interview Monday night with Kate on some other show. I hope they put a link there. . .

Lived with it for the last four days. . . Love A Sky of Honey, especially from Sunset on. Somewhere In Beween has grown on me, Nocturn is great, and Aerial is just so exhuberent, it makes me happy. Never fails to make me at least smile and I’ve ended up laughing along with her when I listen to that track.
As for A Sea of Honey: How To Be Invisible (my absolute favorite here), King Of The Mountain, and to a lesser extent Pi and Joanni are my favorites. Mrs Bartalozzi may grow on me more. Bertie is a nice, but it’s sort of annoying.
A Coral Room may grow on me too, but like Bertie, it’s way too personal to her for my tastes. It takes me out of my own personal experience of the song. And it reminds me of my own mother’s death, so it may be a hard sell for me anyway.

Hey!
I only knew 3 Kate Bush-Songs before (King Of The Mountain, Running Up A Hill, the other one I don’t even know the name!)....
and now I just went to the shop and got me “Aerial” yesterday just cos I was in the mood for buying blindly something I maybe could like....
and I am FASCINATED by this wonderful album!!!!
Since I am not a Kate Bush *Fan* I can’t judge whether if the waiting 12 years was worth it, but I just think this album is a real jewel.
I especially love “Mrs. Bartolozzi”... wonderful.
