More quotes by Kate Bush
For the last 12 years, I've felt really privileged to be living such a normal life. It's so a part of who I am.
Kate Bush
When I was singing King of the Mountain, it was a pivotal point in the show. That's the song that took us from this concert setting of individual songs into the theatrical narrative piece.
Kate Bush
We have a female prime minister [Theresa May] here in the UK. I actually really like her and think she's wonderful. I think it's the best thing that's happened to us in a long time.
Kate Bush
I think quotes are very dangerous things.

If ever there's been somebody to hold as an icon of sheer determination and willpower, it's that guy [Stephen Hawking ], let alone any of the things he's done scientifically. I'm sure that's his driving force, but he's a miracle and an aspiration.

I split it up into working on the two narrative pieces that can tell a story. The scariest thing was whether I'd be any good performing live again. It was such a long time since I'd done any live work. It's so different for me than recording. Every night my audiences were what I would dream of. You could just feel their support.
Kate Bush
My desire was never to be famous. It was to try and create something interesting musically if I could.
Kate Bush
I saw Stephen Sondheim's Sweeney Todd, which I thought was a masterpiece. Not that long ago, I listened to Blackstar by David Bowie and thought that was a masterpiece. Those are two incredibly talented people who've left their mark with us.
Kate Bush
When I'm writing I've been playing something for a couple of hours and I'm almost in a trance. At two or three in the morning you can actually see bits of inspiration floating about and grab them.
Kate Bush
In some ways, when you re-envision a song like that [Never Be Mine], there's a completely different energy to it each night.
Kate Bush
I didn't dare let my mind wander off.
Kate Bush
As the people grow colder, I turn to my computer and spend my evenings with it like a friend.
Kate Bush
The whole positioning and atmosphere of the song [King of the Mountain] was to build up this thunderstorm that would take us all onstage off into a story where we were suddenly in the middle of the ocean.
Kate Bush
Don't ever think that you can't change the past.
Kate Bush
What am I singing? A song of seeds The food of love. Eat the music.
Kate Bush
You're never really happy. I'm certainly not. That's a good thing. It means you're always striving to do better. You hope the next piece will be better.
Kate Bush
All the time it's a changing And all the dreamers are waking.
Kate Bush
Using telephones, they would be so intrusive and would really disrupt the show.
Kate Bush
For me, having a child is a really great responsibility because you've got something there that is depending on you for information and love until a certain age when it goes to school.
