As a fan of KaTe Bush and Pink Floyd, I would also like to point out that
in the vinyl liner notes of "Waking the Witch", it says "Helicopter used by
kind permission of Pink Floyd "The Wall"".   I love the fact that these two
great albums are connected! 
 
Of course, it is well known that David Gilmour, lead guitarist of Pink
Floyd, played an important role in starting KaTe's career, and played in
"Rocket's Tail".  Interestingly, I read in a KaTe interview that her song
"Wow" was meant to sound like a Pink Floyd song.  What do you think, Floyd
fans?  Any other KaTe-Floyd phenomena? 
 
Cheers,
