More quotes by Kate Bush
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.
Kate Bush
Normally I don't compromise at all but it felt important to give that song the chance to be heard.
Kate Bush
My desire was never to be famous. It was to try and create something interesting musically if I could.
Kate Bush
It's very unfortunate that war has always been and probably always will be a part of human beings on this planet. It's a terrible thing.
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 inspiration floating about and grab them.
Kate Bush
I love words, I think they're fascinating and incredibly wonderful things and part of the joy of my work is that I not only get to work with music but also with words. Sometimes it's a difficult process but a lot of the time it's really fun.
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.

In some ways, when you re-envision a song like that [Never Be Mine], there's a completely different energy to it each night.

The thing with 50 Words of Snow is that it was literally back-to-back from Director's Cut [also released in 2011]. It was more or less that I got to make two albums in one hit. I was already in this space in my mind to be writing and making an album.
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.

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
Sometimes when I look back on myself on those earlier records, there was so much effort going in, so much trying. With this, I was trying to make it much more laid back.

The great thing about vinyl is that if you wanted to get a decent-sounding cut, you could really only have 20 minutes max on each side. So you had a strict boundary, and that was something I'd grown up with as well. Also, you were able to have different moods on each side, which was nice.

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
My first Top of the Pops I didn't want to do. I was terrified. I'd never done television before. Seeing the video afterwards was like watching myself die.
Kate Bush
After I've done the salesman bit, I like to be quiet and retreat, because that's whereI write from. I'm a sort of quiet little person.
