3 stars 7th January, 2022: Kate Bush - The Sensual World (art pop, 1989)

As much as I'm hesitant to admit it, I'm still struggling a bit with Kate Bush outwith Hounds of Love. It's one of my favourite albums of all time, and yet I struggle to find another album of hers I even consider a quarter of its quality. This, its direct follow up, is no different. The first few tracks present interesting ideas, and are certainly unique enough to call them enjoyable, but there are no otherworldly emotions or memorable hooks or passionate performances to lock me in. The only real time we come close to the truly transcendent work of its predecessor is on "This Woman's Work", which is a fine way to bow out. Maybe I just need more time. Not just with this, but most of her other records.

6.1 (5th listen)
