Subject: Junk from new fanzine and lyrics to "Jig Of Life"
I just received issue two of "Under The Ivy", yet another Kate Bush fanzine (British). It says that "Hounds of Love" is being released as a single in England on Feb 24th and the B-side is "Jig Of Life". (I guess this means we don't get a new song from Kate. Oh well! Maybe on the next single....) It also contains some pieces of trivia: Did you know that Kate was invited to be a presenter at the recent Fashion Aid show at the Royal Albert Hall? Did you know that Paddy Bush writes music for "Take Hart" on T.V.? Do any of our British correspondants know anything about this show? Did you know that in circulation there is a Dutch mispressing of "Running Up That Hill" with Baltimora's "Tarzan Boy" on the B-side? Did you know that when asked recently what was her favourite track, Kate replied "Infant Kiss"? Did you know that Kate backed No. 1 singer Whitney Houston on German Top Of The Pops last week? Anyone know who Whitney Houston is? Did you know that Kate was a guest at the wedding of Kate St. John of Dream Acadamy fame? Did you know that Kate has donated the "Wedding List" to the new Prince's Trust L.P.? Did you know that Fish of Marrillion has said that the person he would most like to work with is Kate? Oh, boy! Did you know that Kate was 10th in a poll of producers recently produced by Music Week? Well, wasn't that stuff exciting? In any case, the rag also printed the words to John Carder Bush's narration in "Jig of Life". I'm not sure if they are official, but they sure seem like it to me. If they are not, whoever transcribed it sure has a much better ear than me: Can't you see where memories are kept bright Tripping on the water like a laughing girl Time in her eyes is spawning past light Run on the ocean and the woman unfurls Holding all the love that waits for you here Catch us now for I am your future A kiss on the wind and we'll make the land Come over here to where when lingers Waiting in this empty world Waiting for then when the life spray cools For now does ride in on the curl of a wave And you will dance with me in the sunlit pools We are of the going water and the gone We are of water and the holy land of water And all that's to come runs in With the thrust on the strand -Doug
