[ButterTart]

Oh this will need a bit of thought.

 

[AGinAg (38)]

There are several I don't know. Flop Bush lover.

 

[lolly]

Are you going to give us a result show, @Soldi?

 

[Soldi]

Are you going to give us a result show, @Soldi?

I don’t see why not!

 

[lolly]

Perhaps we need to schedule a Kate Bush evening. Or two.

 

[VoR]

I'd definitely be here for a Kylie-esque Moopy discography deep dive.

Might be a touch more niche but there's only 10 albums to work through and most are relatively short.

 

[AGinAg (38)]

We did a couple didn't we?

 

[Iguana]

We did Hounds of Love, The Sensual World and The Red Shoes, I believe.

 

[Iguana]

I'll think about my rates too!

 

[Soldi]

We definitely did The Sensual World and Hounds of Love over the first lockdown. Not sure if we did anymore? And obviously I’d be more than happy to do both again!

 

[GNL]

Well it's the perfect time to do 50 Words for Snow...

Where did everybody go?

 

[AGinAg (38)]

Annie Lennox topic.

 

[Iguana]

Oh it seems we only did a rate of The Red Shoes and not a sync, unless I'm just not finding the thread

 

[Tisch]

They're literally all 10's though!

 

[Kate]

OH I will do this. But only 10 10s

The hardest part of this rate is to give an 11 when about 7 or 8 songs are totally deserving.

03 December Will Be Magic Again

*Inserts appropriate Outsynk gif except I don't have any*

 

[Raining on Me]

What's with the Lyra hate? I mean I know it goes on a bit but it's quite lovely

 

[Soldi]

I didn’t even know it existed before I complied the list

 

[Iguana]

She even said herself she had to do it in a rush!

It's nice and I liked it at the time but it doesn't really stand up against her other music I don't think

That all looks a bit shit. I do like Kate Bush and respect her a lot but she's just not in my sphere. My Kate big 4 are all spectacular.

 

[Tisch]

*Inserts appropriate Outsynk gif except I don't have any*

I don't it consider it CANON

 

[Iguana]

?? Sat In Your Lap
?? Suspended In Gaffa
?? Night of the Swallow

Well.

 

[Iguana]

This confirms we need to do a sync of The Dreaming and @funky needs to attend!

 

[Raining on Me]

She even said herself she had to do it in a rush!

It's nice and I liked it at the time but it doesn't really stand up against her other music I don't think

I mean it's arguably a bit BASIC BUSH but that sombre feel throughout is so beautiful and dramatic - it puts me in mind of Enya's May It Be as far as film songs go, which this basically was

 

[Raining on Me]

I don't it consider it CANON

Well it EXISTS, and a THREE? Quite surprised @Iguana hasn't stuck a butter knife in your throat after that.

An apologetic SIX would be okay

 

[Iguana]

I mean it's arguably a bit BASIC BUSH but that sombre feel throughout is so beautiful and dramatic - it puts me in mind of Enya's May It Be as far as film songs go, which this basically was

Have you heard Out of the Storm, the scrapped theme she did for the Disney film Dinosaur, which she then recycled for Lyra?

 

[Iguana]

In summary, lazy cow
