Cloudbusting -- Kate Bush In Her Own Words

Death

What's been the lowest point in your life?

: In my life! The worst moments are when I've lost people that have meant something to me, when people have died. They're definitely the worst moments. It's probably just the selfish feelings of why you miss a person. You want them to be with you again, you want them more and they're not there. [Makes ok sign] Because probably where they've gone, they're really having a good time. It you want to look at it, death, in a way, should be looked on as the greatest thing that's ever going to happen to you. (1980, Profiles In Rock)

Do you think about death much?

: Yes, my imagination's got a lot of negative triggers. Images are always much stronger when they're negative. (Blitz, 1985)
