THE SENSUAL WORLD

Single which each side are the opening and the closing track of the eponymous album. The difference that this material bears with the content of Kate's cellebrated first three albums is, I think, basically a matter of dynamics and melodic construction:

In the first place, we don't have here the great sensation of momentum "always waiting to build up", but a climatic, cyclic, never peaking dynamic feel sustained by percussion.

In the second, we don't have melodic hooks gripping the listener's attention for good.

Just like the main album, this is a record where you have to want to stay, in order to seize the goods. With a little patience, it really pays off.
