It says "Limited Edition Picture Disc" on the front, but that may not mean much if it was reissued. As for other things, in case my mailer is bouncing, I'll post this: Anyone who has the French lyrics to "Un Baiser D'Enfant" please send them to me. I'm driving people crazy by playing this so much-- I really like it. So now I sit and play the English and French versions over and over. Anybody know why she recorded it in French after _Never For Ever_ was released with the English version? Just curious... I guess that's enough for today. -- --------Susan L.

LE BAISER D'INFANT ------------------ (sic - that's how it's printed, folks - I know it's wrong) (see (a) above ) Je dis bonne nuit nuit Je le borde dans le lit Mais ca ne va pas Qu'est-ce que c'est? Un baiser Ca me fait fremir Je n'ai jamais avant Aime un enfant Sans controle Il n'est qu'un jeune Et a l'ecole Chez nous ils n'aimeront pas Sa petite main Joue dans mon coeur Juste la ou ca fait mal Toc-toc qui est dans ce bebe Tu sais bien y faire CHORUS Toutes les barrieres tombent Ca va se voir Ca se voit Je ne peux laisser faire Je le regretterais Oh il m'effraie Il y a un homme la Dans les yeux Je le vois en me penchant Oh il me fait peur Quand ils chuchotent entre eux Le vent souffle Sur leurs levres des caresses Qui parlent de l'amour Je veux frapper Je me retiens Je veux juste toucher Je dois rester et arreter Tout ca avant qu'il soit trop tard. > Anybody know why she recorded it in French after > _Never For Ever_ was released with the English version?

Because it was released in France in 1983 as the B-side of the single <Ne t'enfuis pas> (EMI Pathe Marconi 50999 1 65152 7), and I guess someone thought that it would sell better in French ... -- Another Fine Product from <mcvax!ukc!icdoc!bilpin!jim> <jim@bilpin.uucp> $JimG : Hatfield, England This line has been intentionally left blank

It says "Limited Edition >Picture Disc" on the front, but that may not mean much if it was >reissued. Are we talking about a U.S. release here or the British version ? I've seen the British original going for 140 pounds (work it out...) although I bought mine for 25 pounds ! It's crazy isn't it ? I could have had the re-issue for 40 pounds at a record fair but I'd already spent 100 pounds on Kate Bush stuff that day. That's life. The difference between the original and the re-issue are that they have different sized black borders at the edge of te record. I believe the re-issue has a very thin border while the original is about 5 mm. It could possibly be the other way around but I don't have the information to hand. I'll look it up when I get home tonight. +--------------------------------------------------------------------+ | __ | evan@tardis.ed.ac.uk |Are you selling your | | |_ \ / | ecwu59@castle.ed.ac.uk |soul to a cold gun ? | | |__VAN \/\/ELSH | ecwu86@ercvax.ed.ac.uk | Kate Bush. | | | rew@lfcs.ed.ac.uk | | +____________________________________________________________________+

I'll look it up when I get home tonight. OK, I've checked this and it's correct. Also the re-issue has "Manufactured in the U.K. by EMI records Ltd." added to the copyright clause on side two, whereas the original doesn't. Just for fun ... the re-issue wasn't as limited as the original with 15000 copies as opposed to 5000. Anyone out there got the infamous Canadian promo interview thingy (SPRO...) Just curious... +--------------------------------------------------------------------+ | __ | evan@tardis.ed.ac.uk |Are you selling your | | |_ \ / | ecwu59@castle.ed.ac.uk |soul to a cold gun ? | | |__VAN \/\/ELSH | ecwu86@ercvax.ed.ac.uk | Kate Bush. | | | rew@lfcs.ed.ac.uk | | +____________________________________________________________________+

The easiest way to tell whether you have the original or the reprint is to look at the "Picture Disk" sticker which is stuck on the cover. If it is round, you have the original. If it is oval, you have the reprint. The original also has the words "Remember Yourself" scratched into the runoff area of the record, while the reprint does not. Has anyone else noticed that the "This Woman's Work" 7-inch picture disk has "Up Yours Ugly" scratched into the runoff area. My, my! |>oug "S is for SUE who burned at the stake"
