This song was one of my favourite parts of the 'Before the Dawn' show on Tuesday. Never fails to move me and I don't know why!

Probably the best show I’ve ever seen - theatrical, epic, intimate, emotional - the memory of Kate strolling on stage and starting to sing will stay with me forever. Nearly 3 hours later, that voice was still in startling form. This song was one of the many highlights - good on record, but astounding live, and a prologue in the show to the moment when it all became something else. And one other bonus on the night - no idiots with camera phones for the whole evening!
HOLYSHITKATEBUSHISTOURING!!! Arrgghhhhh!!!

Been going back to Aerial a lot lately.
Not just because Kate Bush. Has a small band ever sounded better, or been better recorded? Drummer Steve Sanger in particular absolutely nails it.
Kate Bush - King of the Mountain ... she's obsessed with going up hills and mountains. Just straight up obsessed. What a weirdo. Just straight up weird. I last heard this song at K-Mart... when it existed.
