Many subjects are covered by this "working mother" including the dreamy "Washing Machine", which gives a good perspective on Kate Bush's unique approach to songwriting - a very special Washing Machine that is! . Also a cool song lyric about numbers titled "Pi", and many other tracks revealing her unique insights on life itself. Music wise, it's a great mixture of technology and acoustic instruments and these are used to great effect. The first release from the album is the typically Bush style "King Of The Mountain" - it sounds like eehmm ... Kate Bush! She's certainly like no other artist you'll hear, which I think is a very special and unique talent to have. Btw One of the album tracks also features one "Rolf Harris!" (ask your Dad :).

I was listening to an interview with Kate Bush on the BBC recently, and she really is a strong artistic style character, who know's her own mind and never stops "seeking" answers. She puts her questions and answers into her music and lyrics. For me, most of KB's songs have proven to be "growers" and take a few listens to really get into them. Reflective, introspective, and a true labour of love, with a haunting melodic  quality.
