“Deeper Understanding”
– Kate Bush, from the album The Sensual World |
| |
| |
As the people here grow colder,
I turn to my computer
And spend my evenings with it
Like a friend.
I was loading a new programme
I had ordered from a magazine:
"Are you lonely, are you lost?
This voice console is a must."
I press Execute.

Review: The Sensual World was Kate Bush's last album of the 1980s, a decade in which she rose to alternative-rock stardom, propelled by her passionate lyrics, inventive song structures, aching melodies, and amazing voice. The Sensual World marked a shift to a slightly more pop-oriented sound for Kate, though stand-out tracks like "Heads We're Dancing," "The Fog," "Deeper Understanding" and "Never Be Mine" proved that she had not lost her progressive underpinnings. "Love and Anger" and the title track were both radio hits for her, and the emotionally powerful "This Woman's Work" is unforgettable. Like many of Kate Bush's albums, this one is a must-have.
