Jesus Christ, someone just turned me onto Kate Bush not less than three nights ago, and I've been lollering at the Wuthering Heights video ever since. The horrors of one woman being labelled "precocious" instead of "pretentious" and given free-reign over her own career. Jesus.
The video has two moments where she drops the bullshit feelings-conscious facade and for split seconds there's a real person behind the eyes. Then you can see her blink and remember to fear and oh Jesus the dancing.
Seriously, when I was at Cabrillo part of our final project in Beginning Improvisation was to do a choreographed dance. Four guys in one group, and you know how guys get even more self-conscious about dancing when they're in groups. Anyway, I can say with absolute righteousness that we were goddamn better than Kate Bush.
KRAZY KATE!!!troy_storyDecember 27 2006, 21:52:53 UTC
you hit the nail on the head. I couldn't have said it better. She must have had a lot of rich friends who were REALLY nice to her. It's like the kinds of embarrassing dances that you do in front of the mirror to really bad music, but you'd never show it to anybody ever, yet she made a successful pop career out of it! HOW IS THAT POSSIBLE!!!
