      100% ...for me, there are/were a few artists who seemed to somehow transcend mere mortality and were more of a spirit or aura as an artist. Kate Bush, Prince, Sly Stone, Peter Gabriel, even Stevie Nicks are a few that come to mind. For me, out of all of them, Peter would be the most "earthly"--maybe because I had experienced him more in conversations than I ever did with the others I mentioned. Definitely Prince and Kate always seemed more like apparitions than human somehow. I know it may sound strange, but maybe others feel something like that as well...? At the very least, those artists are all iconic and geniuses in one way or another.

    Kate Bush was a child musical prodigy and when you consider she wrote " The man with the child in his eyes" when she was only 12 yrs old. You then begin to understand that she's a force of nature and a genius.

      The Dreaming is - imo - a jump into a deep end if you are starting to listen Kate Bush. She has herself stated that it went a bit far with the Fairlight sampler and self dependence. Hounds...is probably a return towards more digestible forms and did spawn hits. But that singing bass sound on Dreaming's "All The Love" is stunning.

    The Dreaming and Hounds of Love are Kate's masterpieces.
    The Dreaming is all about mini stories to do with knowledge, crime, aboriginal Australia, smugglers, vietnam war, a cursed house etc.
    Whilst the Hounds Of Love's First 5 songs are to do with 'love' in some way whether it be with nature, partner or parental.
    The following 6 songs details the story of a woman stranded in the sea drowning.

      The Dude
      Quote from kate Bush
      “I saw this incredible documentary by this Australian cameraman who went on the front line in Vietnam, filming from the Vietnamese point of view, so it was very biased against the Americans. He said it really changed him, because until you live on their level like that, when it's complete survival, you don't know what it's about. He's never been the same since, because it's so devastating, people dying all the time.
      The way he portrayed the Vietnamese was as this really crafted, beautiful race. The Americans were these big, fat, pink, smelly things who the Vietnamese could smell coming for miles because of the tobacco and cologne. It was devastating, because you got the impression that the Americans were so heavy and awkward, and the Vietnamese were so beautiful and all getting wiped out. They wore a little silver Buddha on a chain around their neck and when they went into action they'd pop it into their mouth, so if they died they'd have Buddha on their lips. I wanted to write a song that could somehow convey the whole thing, so we set it in the jungle and had helicopters, crickets and little Balinese frogs. (Kris Needs, 'Dream Time In The Bush'. Zigzag (UK), November 1982)

    Everything Kate did from her debut through to this album is still touched with magic for me. She debuted this song on Terry Wogan's BBC TV show and it sold out everywhere the next day. That she released albums so sporadically, by the measure of the times, only made them more special. The Dreaming is a challenging album, but that makes it all the more rewarding when you get under its skin. I suppose I bought it at a time when I was able to devote time to an album, and listen to it over and over again, headphones on and lights out. I still "make deals with God," sometimes, even if they are not exactly what Kate was talking about.

  • @1nelsondj
    @1nelsondj 4 года назад +12

    "The Dreaming" is Kate's most experimental album, but "Hounds of Love" is more cohesive and accessible. Side 1 has all the singles but side 2 is a conceptual suite, probably the best thing she's ever done. Every song on this album is a masterpiece, she produced it. Her next couple of albums are also worth hearing but just collections of songs. After that she took a 12 year break to raise her son.

    That "sampled" part you refer to around 9:40 is a Fairlight (with a cello sample), an early, powerful sampling synth that she, Peter Gabriel, and a lot of other creative artists used back in the day. Some of the other strange voice-like effects you hear all over this record are her voice and other things sampled on the Fairlight.
    This is probably Kate's seminal work. In 2014 she did a 22 night run of performances (after not playing live for decades) based primarily around this record, Hounds of Love (and also songs from Aerial).
    If you're going to do Hounds of Love all as reactions, definitely do it in order. It's a concept album, and the flow is really important. Luckily, you started with the opening track, so you're good to go!

    The whole album is a wonder! This song is the perfect intro to suck you into the whole thing and the first side gets better with every song right up to Cloudbusting, which is simply phenomenal. Then you turn the record over and all your expectations get turned upside down. Side two is a trip! All her Celtic influences are allowed their full expression and the whole side is much more abstract and expressionist than what went before. It’s a real album of two sides with no discernable relation between one and the other but both are sublime.

    Kate got one of the first Fairlights. Incredibly expensive and hard to get hold of, they were almost sold on merit. With it, musicians were able to sample and write their own sounds. As well as Kate being as unique as she is, all of these sounds were revolutionary, sounds we had never heard, and because she has created these sounds, they were straight from her mind to us, breaking the restrictions of the off the shelf instruments that musicians has previously been restricted to expressing themselves with

    One day, something will change within you in the same way our taste buds mature and change over time. Eventually, you will after a number of sessions (especially when in the background) you will notice the sheer layers and melding of sounds that I believe no other artist has ever achieved. I understand that the album is not understood or liked by many but if you like Kate Bush then many of the songs (especially the first half albeit not exclusively) will catch you with moments that pique your interest pondering the genius of not just using her voice as an instrument but sound as an orchestrated symphony. This was the first album where she was in full control and produced, was recorded during the dawning age of computers in music. Kate was influenced greatly by Peter Gabriel's use of the Farlight for Sampling e.g. the breaking glass on Peter Gabriel's "Games without Frontiers" which includes Kate Bush for backing vocals, and The Dreaming was I believe her first chance to apply her mind's ear to reality in a way that she wanted and was finally able to do with significantly less compromise (and completely when she built her own studio which led to The Hounds of Love). The Dreaming may take you some time to acquire a taste for but in the same way that time ages great wine, watching the difference between critics then and now has a similar trajectory. If as you say "The Hounds of Love" is perfect, The Dreaming was her step that needed to be taken before perfection was possible.

    Yes. It’s a perfect album and it propelled her back into the spotlight and high up the charts. Others have mentioned The Ninth Wave and you should definitely listen to that in its entirety. She also reproduced it live and it became a little piece of theatre and it’s stunning. Before The Dawn is the live album title and this is one of the movements in it. Cloudbusting was perhaps even more special as a single. But this whole album deserves a listen. It’s stunning.

    The Dreaming is definitely one of her least accessible albums. Her other albums in the 80s and 90s are a mixture of mainstream music and experimental songs. I would suggest to react to the popular songs and explore the rest on your own. Recommended songs:
    - The Kick Inside: The Man with the Child in His Eyes
    - Never for Ever: Babooshka, Breathing, Army Dreamers
    - Hounds of Love: Cloudbusting, Hounds of Love, The Big Sky
    - The Sensual World: This Woman's Work, Love and Anger, The Sensual World
    - The Red Shoes: Moments of Pleasure, And So Is Love
    - Aerial: King of the Mountain
    As for other videos: perhaps you can do album reviews for music you've listen to on your own? And maybe you have recommendations as well. What music do you like that most of us may not know?

    Hey JP! I’ve discovered Kate Bush in 2017 and have been hooked since! Love how you fully embraced Kate Bush’s art, music, and lyrics! You should definitely react to someone very different her name is Poppy - she used to make generic pop songs due to her RUclips character as a Barbie-like robot, but since she split up with her collaborator Titanic Sinclair she now focuses her sound on post genre or in simplistic words heavy metal with weird and interesting breakdowns. Some recs are X (where you see a change in the usual ‘Poppy’ sound), Concrete, I Disagree (the title track of her new album with the same name), or Play destroy! Love your channel and can’t wait to see more!!

Look forward to hearing your other reactions to the album, especially the title track and the "Ninth Wave" suite ("And Dream of Sheep" through "The Morning Fog"), all of which a Pink Floyd fan should appreciate.

Kate je la suivais depuis 1980 et là ce fut une claque... (déjà "The Dreaming" m'avait passablement impressionné par son radicalisme musical) ! ce disque est en équilibre parfait entre thèmes supposément pop (face 1) et titres expérimentaux et étranges (face 2). Un univers infini dans ce chef-d’œuvre qui ne prend pas une ride ! Kate je t'adore.

Very insightful about how she uses her voice differently within the song, and also from song to song.

Suspended In Gaffa is one of the big tracks for me. The album Never For Ever is the gateway drug, and you should definitely fully explore that one. Also as has been suggested, do the entire side 2 of Hounds Of Love, which is titled The Ninth Wave. It is perfection. One song from her later albums has a Dreaming vibe to it: Big Stripey Lie from her album The Red Shoes. However, my favorite song on The Red Shoes is definitely Lily.

    Good song, not my favorite of hers. I had The Dreaming album, like so many others! Very intriguing to listen too. This song just didn't grab me. I like her work with Peter Gabriel, she did backing vocals on his 1980 album, I believe the songs were No Self Control and Games Without Frontiers. Classics both. Wouldn't be surprised if her and Pete had a thing going on (he got divorced later...)
    I think it would be cool for you to do a live stream listing to a live Genesis album (continue your Genesis journey)! I would suggest their 1973 album Genesis Live. Fantastic sound with lots of Steve Hackett being featured.

    Your're so lucky to hear all those songs for the first time! Kate Bush is one my favorite artist and this album is so good! I did mention the album The Dreaming in my comments at some point as a guide to understand her progression from Wuthering Heights that eventually led to Hounds Of Love. If you like, you can listen to the second side of the album by yourself (track 6 to 12). It's a suite called the Ninth Wave and keep Cloudbusting and Hounds of Love for the channel! For the sampling, they used the Fairlight CMI synthesiser (appeared in 1979/1980). Kate Bush and Peter Gabriel were early users.
