Comparative Playlist for Director's Cut
I’ve made a useful comparative playlist on spotify for Director’s Cut and The Red Shoes and The Sensual World.
And Hugh with the double-play ‘Kate Bush’ late in the 4th quarter has sent the Tumblrs into over-time.
UPDATE:
here’s a youtube playlist of the same thing

Lots of questions! Kate Bush interview, remastered...
You can hear Kate Bush’s non-singing voice here:
I’ve never heard her talk before: it’s an emotional experience.
Kate Bush is my favourite musician ever.
The interview is incredible obv, talking about touring like she a) just never got round to it b) is from Bromley. How much would you spend on seeing Kate Bush? Would it clear £100? Would you turn LEONINE if she...
Respecting Plucky Local Cinemas
We went to the cinema on Saturday to go and see Attack the Block (best line ‘That alien’s blacker than my cousin Phemi’).
A sign on a seat by the door:
Please Respect Your Local Cinema And Refrain From Bringing Any Food Or Drink Into The Cinematorium
Screen on the Green is the 2nd nearest cinema to me.
Respect works both ways is a good phrase. And fits nicely with this...

The House is Burning WHERE ARE MY DOG PLAYING...
Around 4 years ago i had to leave Manchester to get a proper job that didn’t pay 12k/year.
My parents decided not to come and pick me up. If this had been the 90s i would’ve hitch-hiked. But Wolf Creek had come out 2 years earlier, and it simply wasn’t an option.
As a result i had to carry 4 years of life from Manchester to Stevenage. This meant not being able to carry anything...

Advertising on cash points
I was taking money out of a cash point this morning. It was amazing, i got a different bus to work? and it went past two cashpoints? and i withdrew some money?
No way!
After finishing my transaction (“Sorry, £5 are not available”), i get served a DIGITAL AD ‘Why not get an ISA?’ or ‘Lloyds charge you £20/day if you go over your overdraft’, some boring ad like...
