Kate has admitted that Lindsey Kemp, her original dance instructor was gay in both an interview (I think), as well as in the book Kate Bush: A Visual Documentary. I do not remember if it was in The Whole Story or not. WOW is referring to him as well as being gay. That is where the lyrics "Putting [on] the Vaseline" comes from. Remember in the video in Live from the Hammersmith Odeon - when she sings that line, she slaps her bottom. She apparently had a crush on him while she was one of his students. Just out of curiousity - who is the narrator supposed to be in Kashka from Bagdad anyway, since Kashka and his lover are gay? Is it possible that this also has her infactuation with Lindsey was an influence on this son as well? Michael Scott mscott@cruzio.santa-cruz.ca.us
