One of my Muses.... Kate Bush

I Love Kate Bush - I have been a fan of hers, ever since the first time I listened to "The Ninth Wave" (side 2 of her Hounds of Love Album), back in the mid 1980s.
I find her music to be timeless. It is everything from inspirational to disturbing, humourous to haunting.  The Stories she tells through her music are almost always breathtakingly creative.
Kate Bush's voice and the imagery in her lyrics embody an ethereal beauty and magic that always stays with me long after I turn off my stereo.

Her music makes up a big chunk of my all-time most played playlist, and will definitely be playing in the soundtrack of my dream studio.
The following videos show just a sample of her genius.

The Haunting Beauty:


The Fun Cover Songs:


The Wondrous ...


... and the Frighteningly Moralistic Storytelling:


Blissful Pleasure:


and Sheer Horror:


If you have never done so, take some time to really experience Kate Bush's music. Allow yourself to drift away to surprising and mysterious places.

and above all else, enjoy the moments...

As Always,
Dayna
