i think "trs" was a wonderful album.  i don't think that kate bush has peaked 
at all.  "the dreaming" was a great album, but it seems like more of an 
experiment in sound than any other album.  "trs" is a brilliant album.  people 
refer to it as "scattered and cluttered", but it isn't really.  it's life when 
you stop and look at it.  it's happy and free one moment, and the next it's 
sad and confining.  it goes through the joy of life and then back down to the 
heartache and pain that we go through.  so, it's not as mysterious as other 
albums, not as much much of an experiment, but at the same time it's the 
greatest experiment...life.   

lots of love,
