I got inspired last night and pulled down all my boxes of Kate Bush paraphilnalia (I hurt my back doing it too!) and searched through all my magazines, meticulously searching for the interview where Kate refers to "Night of the Swallow" as "Nice to Swallow". I searched most intensely where I thought I'd find it, but it was to no avail. Just as I was about to give up, I spotted another magazine that was vaguely similar in size, color, and shape to the magazine I had expected to find it in, so I looked in there, and there it was! So, here is the quote that IED stubbornly refused to believe existed. I hope that IED will give me the *HUGE* apology that he promised. It is from *Sounds Fan Library No. 9: Lady Killers*. Pat Benetar is on the cover. Inside there is an interview with Kate (among lots of other junk), and on page 35, Kate comments on all of her albums. These are the comments on *The Dreaming*: Again I'm very fond of this because it's my latest and because it represents *total* control, owing to the fact that I produced it by myself. It's the hardest thing I've ever done -- it was even harder than touring! The whole experience was very worrying, very frightening but at the same time very rewarding. It took a long time to do but I think there are some very intense songs and the ones I like best of all are 'Nice To Swallow', 'Houdini', and 'Get Out'. All in all, I was very proud of this record. I am NEVER going to this much trouble again to counter IED's disbelief of my perfect knowledge. Twice is enough. |>oug
