| Kate Bush |
O que dizer sobre Kate Bush? Tanto e tanto. É tão bom ver o quanto ela é importante para todas as gerações. Há muitas versões dela cantadas e interpretadas por outros, outras artistas, de tal forma que ela inspira uma nova geração de cantoras, as que estou a gostar como Christine and the Queens e Aurora. Há nela uma outra dimensão. Uma das primeiras a fazer dançar as palavras na sua música. Além disso, havia toda uma expressão teatral na música bem como nos seus concertos. Quem viu concertos dela da época não pode ter ficado indiferente, mesmo os vídeos eram uma junção de teatro com dança. As letras são sempre de uma beleza, poesia incrível. Vou colocar algumas, mas, podem, mesmo as mais divertidas, encontrar algo de profundo. Bom, em "Babooshka" é um pouco diferente...
Wuthering Heights
"The Kick Inside" é estrondoso como primeiro álbum. Ainda sei todas as letras.
The Man With a Child in His Eyes
Moving
Moving stranger does it really matter?
As long as you're not afraid to feel
Touch me, hold me, how my open arms ache
Try to fall for me
How I'm moved, how you move me
With your beauty's potency
You give me life, please don't let me go
You crush the lily in my soul
Moving liquid, yes, you are just as water
You flow around all that comes in your way
Don't think it over, it always takes you over
And sets your spirit dancing
How I'm moved, how you move me
With your beauty's potency
You give me life, please don't let me go (please don't let me go)
You give me life, please don't let me go (please don't let me go)
Oh, you give me life, please don't let me go
You crush the lily in my soul

E "Lionheart" chegou. A teatralidade das suas performances faziam-me sair e viajar perto dos seus sonhos. As letras sempre foram lindas. Um bonito lugar para se estar.
Hammer Horror
Wow
Oh England My Lionheart
E "Never for Ever" apareceu com "Babooshka". Um vídeo cheio de sensualidade. de tirar o fôlego com uma historia sobre um estranho esquema para enganar o marido.
Babooshka
"Army Dreamers" é uma das suas preocupações sociais.
Army Dreamers
"Breathing" uma das suas mais belas canções.

E "Hounds of Love" chegou com "Hounds of love" que começa com a um áudio do filme "The Night of the Demon" de jacques Tourneur. Um filme que convido a ver aqui no meu blogue. Ainda está disponível.
Hounds os Love
"Running up that Hill" estava sempre a passar na rádio. Foi um sucesso.
Running up that hill
E "Hello Hearth" é um hino ao nosso planeta. Umas das primeiras a cantar a beleza, com beleza, da terra. Numa altura em que se começava a perceber os sinais das alterações climatéricas.
Hello Earth
Hello earth
Hello earth
With just one hand held up high
I can blot you out
Out of sight
Peek-a-boo,
Peek-a-boo, little earth
With just my heart and my mind
I can be driving
Driving home
And you asleep
On the seat
I get out of my car
Step into the night
And look up at the sky
And there's something bright
Traveling fast
Look at it go
Look at it go
Hello earth
Hello earth
Watching storms
Start to form
Over America
Can't do anything
Just watch them swing
With the wind out to sea
All you sailors
(Get out of the waves, get out of the water)
All life-savers,
(Get out of the waves, get out of the water)
All you cruisers,
(Get out of the waves, get out of the water)
All you fishermen
Head for home
Go to sleep, little earth
I was there at the birth
Out of the cloudburst
The head of the tempest
Murderer
Murder of calm
Why did I go?
Why did I go?
Tiefer, tiefer
Irgendwo in der tiefe
Gibt es ein licht
Go to sleep little earth
A Dream Of Sheep

"The Sensual World" veio com um vídeo de uma beleza e sensualidade extrema.
The Sensual World
Mmh, yes
Then I'd taken the kiss of seedcake back from his mouth
Going deep South, go down, mmh, yes
Took six big wheels and rolled our bodies
Off of Howth Head and into the flesh, mmh, yes
He said I was a flower of the mountain, yes
But now I've powers o'er a woman's body, yes
Stepping out of the page into the sensual world
Stepping out
To where the water and the earth caress
And the down of a peach says mmh, yes
Do I look for those millionaires
Like a Machiavellian girl would
When I could wear a sunset? mmh, yes
And how we'd wished to live in the sensual world
You don't need words, just one kiss, then another
Stepping out of the page into the sensual world
Stepping out, off the page, into the sensual world
And then our arrows of desire rewrite the speech, mmh, yes
And then he whispered would I, mmh, yes
Be safe, mmh, yes, from mountain flowers?
And at first with the charm around him, mmh, yes
He loosened it so if it slipped between my breasts
He'd rescue it, mmh, yes
And his spark took life in my hand and, mmh, yes
I said, mmh, yes
But not yet, mmh, yes
Mmh, yes
Mmh, yes

Sweet dreams
On this Midsummer night
Everyone is sleeping
We go driving into the moonlight
Could be in a dream
Our clothes are on the beach
These prints of our feet
Lead right up to the sea
No one, no one is here
No one, no one is here
We stand in the Atlantic
We become panoramic
We tire of the city
We tire of it all
We long for just that something more
Could be in a dream
Our clothes are on the beach
These prints of our feet
Lead right up to the sea
No one, no one is here
No one, no one is here
We stand in the Atlantic
We become panoramic
The stars are caught in our hair
The stars are on our fingers
A veil of diamond dust
Just reach up and touch it
The sky's above our heads
The sea's around our legs
In milky, silky water
We swim further and further
We dive down
We dive down
A diamond night, a diamond sea
And a diamond sky
We dive deeper and deeper
We dive deeper and deeper
Could be we are here
Could be in my dream
It came up on the horizon
Rising and rising
In a sea of honey, a sky of honey
A sea of honey, a sky of honey
Sweet dreams
Look at the light, all the time it's a changing
Look at the light, climbing up the aerial
Bright, white coming alive jumping off of the aerial
All the time it's a changing, like now
All the time it's a changing, like then again
All the time it's a changing
And all the dreamers are waking.

Antes de "50 Words for Snow" o seu último álbum houve "Director´s Cut" com versões novas dos seus álbuns "The sensual World" e "The Red Shoes". " 50 Words of Snow" é um álbum de uma grande estética e beleza.

50 Words for Snow
Uma artista extraordinária com álbuns fantásticos e os seus concertos eram diferentes de tudo o que havia na altura. Contos de fadas. A dança é uma das suas formas de expressão.
Kate Bush fazia parte do meu quotidiano quando era adolescente, hoje faz parte do meu "Nocturn" como é bom envelhecer com ela. Não havia muitas mulheres na altura como ela. Siouxie berçava o meu lado punk e Kate Bush o meu lado interior.
Nada de melhor que descobrir ou voltar a descobrir Kate Bush. Adorava ver mais dela.
Love her!

What to say about Kate Bush? So much and so much. It's so good to see how important she is to all generations. There are many versions of her sung and performed by other, other artists, in such a way that she inspires a new generation of singers, the ones I like Christine and the Queens and Aurora. There is another dimension to it. One of the first to make the words dance in her music. Furthermore, there was a whole theatrical expression in the music as well as in their concerts. Those who saw her concerts at the time could not have been indifferent, even the videos were a combination of theater and dance. The lyrics are always of beauty and incredible poetry. I'm going to put some, but even the funniest ones can find something profound. Well, in "Babooshka" it's a little different...

"The Kick Inside" is a smashing first album. I still know all the lyrics.

50 Words for Snow
An extraordinary artist with fantastic albums and her concerts were unlike anything there was at the time. Fairy tales. Dancing is one of her expression forms.
Kate Bush was part of my daily life when I was a teenager, today it is part of my "Nocturn" how good it is to grow old with her. There weren't many women like her back then. Siouxie nurtured my punk side and Kate Bush my inner side.
There's nothing better than discovering or discovering Kate Bush again. I would love to see more of her.
Love her!
