    “Kate Bush, inspired by the Eskimo having, you guessed it, 50 words for snow, uses a backdrop of winter to explore themes of isolation love and intimacy across seven of her longest most experimental tracks on her 10th studio album. To sample some of what you stand to get into here — the opening track "Snowflake", was written specifically to use the high choir-boy voice of Bush's son Albert, who sang the role of a falling snowflake in a song expressing the hope of a noisy world soon being hushed by snowfall. Later on the album, "Misty" is about a snowman lover who melts away after a night of passion. This is Bush at her Bushiest. Stream on Spotify Stream on Apple Music Buy Vinyl”
