melum46. Kate

This is the song that will keep me forever tied to Kate Bush and her music.

It has such an Orwellian feel (composed in 1986, by the way, two years after 1984, one year after Brasil).

Small trivia: you can find in this video two very well-known men. One is Nigel Kennedy (a genius I unexpectedly saw, listened to - and was blown away by - at the Enescu festival, last year). The other is Hugh Laurie.

They told us
All they wanted
Was a sound that could kill someone
From a distance.
So we go ahead,
And the meters are over in the red.
It's a mistake in the making.
