Think I'll stick with a couple of themes from yesterday for #TonightsListening - a 'wintry' album and - why the hell not - by another female singer-songwriter.
So #NowPlaying is '50 Words For Snow' by Kate Bush.
RIP #DelPalmer. He had a big impact on #KateBush’s work and development as a singer/song writer/producer. I think he was on every album since Lionheart and was on my two favorite albums, Hounds of Love and the Dreaming. He was on her later albums that were very good but less commercially successful like 50 words for snow and Arial. He was also on great songs like This Woman’s Work, Moments of Pleasure, and The Sensual World
My vocals are often compared to #KateBush and it's so flattering but I cannot compare to her so I wonder if I should lean into it or deliberately work on NOT sounding like her.
Also I will probably never be able to sound like #Rihanna no matter how much I try. 😭
"'SINEAD
It’s like a light has gone out, hasn’t it? A beacon on a high mountain. Sinead didn’t just move us with her incredibly emotive voice, she stood up with it.
I salute her. We were lucky to have such a magical presence move among us.
