4.0 out of 5 stars I finally "got it", November 1, 2009

I avoided this album for years. I finally listened to it and I "got" it. What a smooth, sensual and complex album. Sonically amazing, with its bagpipes, American Indian flutes, penny whistles, church bells, electronic washes and spooky lyrics. I really love it. This Woman's Work is one of the best songs ever written. This is a Kate Bush album for people who would be terrified by any of other other stuff. Mature, mellow and something that needs to be listen to as a whole album. Just let yourself absorb this album on a cold autumn night.

5.0 out of 5 stars Calming, February 15, 2010

This review is from: The Sensual World (Audio CD)

I'm a relatively new fan of Kate's, having listened to her music for only a couple of years. A friend recommended her to me because I love Tori Amos and have since the late 90's. "The Sensual World" is the first album by Kate that I purchased and it's still my favorite. If I feel overly stressed or anxious, I immediately put this album on. It has an ethereal quality that is so soothing, but not enough to make me nod off. In fact, there is an energizing aspect to the album, but it's not overdone. My personal favorite tracks are "Never Be Mine", "Heads Were Dancing", and "This Woman's Work". This is a great album and I recommend it highly.
