Kate Bush Quotations

I am just a quiet reclusive person who has managed to hang around for a while.

People weren't even aware that I wrote my own songs. The media just promoted me as a female body. It's like I've had to prove that I'm an artist.

I was aware of a lot of my friends being into things I wasn't into. Like sarcasm. It had never been a part of my family - they still don't use sarcasm.

I suppose I do think I go out of my way to be a very normal person, and I just find it frustrating that people think that I'm some kind of weirdo reclusive that never comes out into the world.

I understand that people want to just listen to a track and put it on their iPod, and that's fine, there's nothing wrong with that, but why can't that exist hand in hand with an album? They're such different experiences.

The music industry is in such poor shape; it's in a really bad way, and a lot of people in the industry are very depressed.

The freedom you feel when you're actually in control of your own music is fantastic.

Thanks to everyone who's encouraged and supported my work over the years.

People said I couldn't gig, and I proved them wrong.

People ask what I really did in the three years between 'The Dreaming' and 'Hounds of Love.' I spent it with my family, living a normal home life.
