My roommates and I have arrived at a consensus. (I don't want to be
flame-provoking, so I'll greatly tone down the wording used...)
We've often (~5 times a day) seen the Running_Up_That_Hill video, and
listened to the accompanying music, and we conclude that (while she may
dance quite well) Kate Bush is incomprehensible, boring, repetitive, and
tries too hard to be "artistic".
In all honesty, we much prefer Madonna. Or just about anyone else!

Well who is that a reflection on? I comprehend her quite well. My interpretations of her songs even match very closely (sometimes perfectly) with her own explanations that she published long after I reached my own conclusions. > boring, Well, you're entitled to your opinion. > repetitive, and.... I'm sure you're missing 90% of the song through a TV speaker. > tries too hard to be "artistic". Well that's just something to be *real* ashamed of! And all these generalizations from one song! A song that was so different from everything she had done previously, that it pissed me off totally when I first heard it.... (Though her lyrics are usually just as "incomprehensible", the throbbing drone dance beat is something she just recently discovered....) > In all honesty, we much prefer Madonna. Or just about anyone else! Well, that says it all, doesn't it? -Doug Alan nessus@mit-eddie.UUCP (or ARPA)
