Subject: Definitive "Wuthering Heights" Interpretation

After careful deliberation and thorough research, I have discovered that many of you are sadly misinformed in your interpretation of the song "Wuthering Heights." It is quite clear to anyone that has read James Osterberg's authoritative "Book of Screams" that the characters "Heathcliff" and "Cathy" refer to the characters in the comics section of your local newspaper. The "Heathcliff" side of Kate Bush's personality reflect her playfulness and love of fat cats (like Dave Gilmore). The "Cathy" side of her personality is the neurotic part that is afraid to leave her house and get her butt on tour for fear that some percussionist will drop a beat (causing a massive uproar of the fans, followed by hours of booing) or another roadie will go the way of Spinal Tap drummers (giving her another excuse to stay home and stuff herself silly with chocolate). What does the song title "Wuthering Heights" mean? Probably nothing. It seems those words were chosen by a random word generating program in KB's Fairlight word proccessor. - Don
