Kate's first album The Kick Inside was released in 1978 but I don't think it made its way to the U.S. until 1979 when I first heard it, instantly enamored. These two songs are some favorites from this album. The Saxophone Song was recorded in '75 when 17.
#KateBush writes all her songs. Wrote her first noticed by David Gilmour at 13yo, starting at 11. I started writing songs, nothing close to her musical genius, when around 8. I begged for piano lessons when 4, but soon after was recommended I stop, told natural ear it would ruin.
But, I lost it as far as an ability to play and write. That's okay. Later, life gave me my child. Even better. I wrote T, I miss you! I love you! Replied with this and, I miss you and love you more! From preteen on, rare to ever hear those words, especially with "more" - beaming!
It's a shyness... in a way... and a little more complex. But, nothing against me. Just a stubborn habit never really outgrown. Too much in life thrown our way, but we have so much we're bonded with. So much. Alexandria says we're a lot alike. T doesn't like that, lol. It's true.
The Gentle Barn opened August 25, '99 so today is the 21st anniversary shared with John Lewis Thunderheart!
He's better but lungs still healing. Ellie shares photos & memories from over the years. I'm similar to Ellie in a lot of ways regarding animals! https://www.facebook.com/watch/live/?v=959864867794481¬if_id=1598403929713827¬if_t=live_video_explicit

I'll probably be deleting this thread of tweets. I'm kinda lonely today, fighting pain and symptoms, and reminiscing a little myself. At 8, I was infatuated with the cows behind our yard... I love cows. But, a lot of other animal care involvement over the years. Too much to list.
