    Kate Bush is the real deal, an established all round artist, a 4 octave vocal range, an insightfull, intelligent, emotive lyric and music writer, a versatile musician, a classically trained visionary dancer and performer. Babooshka is a Russian fable that involves a Russian peasent wife who tests her husbands devotion, loyalty to her and their marriage by spiriting / morphing herself into a much younger looking temptress in order to lure and tempt her husband, and test his devotion, love and loyalty to his wife. Kate Bush draws from fables, fairytales, multy cultural myths, history and literature from around the world for inspiration.

      It is also the name of the "head kerchief " often worn by housewives and elderly ladies. I think Kate chose it because it is an appropriate symbol of the unhappy wife and the drudgery of housework, cooking and cleaning. My own mother wore one when she was cooking or doing laundry, it keeps the hair back, like a hair net.

    The ailment he suffers is the fear of aging which he projects upon his wife because SHE is showing signs of aging and because she knows this she wants to portray as in a kind of role playing enticement an excited young vixen Babushka keeping the disguise quite secret with scented letters. It's both a sad and beautiful and reconciling song about aging and renewal. Kate knows how to musically get inside these emotions in such a storytelling way that floors me.

      It's not that simple though as she decides to "test" him by sending the letters in the first place (why ?). He falls for her (again) but not who she currently is, but the woman he originally fell in love with (before the kids and real life catches up with everyone). Isn't that a reaffirmation for her ? However, it isnt its about peoples preference for a fantasy rather than real life they actually have.

    Great song, as always from Kate Bush. The reason the husband doesn’t recognize her is because she’s in disguise. And the two outfits Kate wears in the video represent the two versions - the wife as she normally is, draped in black and subdued, and the fantasy figure she created, wild haired and exotically dressed in chain mail and silk. The twist is that the only reason he falls for the fantasy version is because she reminds him of his wife.

    • @luisesteban9770
      @luisesteban9770 2 роки тому +3

      @@ennoiatoreador755 I don't think the crashing sounds are about physical things. If you take the video as canon, the crashing sounds coincide with the disguise being taken off. I believe the crashing sound is him realising who she actually is. That is, the "incognito" disguise is smashed. I also conclude that the song does not reveal the result of the revelation. I believe the conclusion is for us to make; what we would feel. Does the relationship rekindle the infatuation type love they used to have? Or, does the relationship explode and complete the slow destruction that has been happening for some time now?
      I think this is a brilliant song; so emotional, so emotive, so evocative. The veil has a double interpretation: one is that it makes her look older, being grey, and with wrinkles from the folds of the veil, but also represents the incognito disguise, which is lifted when the crashing occurs. When she appears as the warrior, does she represent the disguise of what she looks like now or does she represent what the wife looked like before she froze on him. Notice, when the double bass is turned, the lyric says, "reminds him of his little lady" and shows an image of the female warrior.

      Also consider, the narrator says that she couldn't have made a worst move! Her testing was really bad. Why? Was it the worst thing at the time she made the decision but turned out good? Or, was it the worst thing because the final outcome was really bad? It is perfect art because it is perfectly ambiguous with intense emotion for all possible interpretations.

    She sends the letters under a different name “Babooska” to test him to see if he will stray, and she arranges to meet him once he’s on the hook. She feels she has lost her beauty and her husband has lost his initial passion for her, to the point when they meet up he just sees signs of what he loved about his wife in her, it is left open at the end, does she continue the charade to maintain the relationship or reveal who she really is...who knows!

    Definitely has a Russian feel to it with the name, the balaliaka sounding riffs, and deep male backing vocals. I think the wife wasn't testing her husband to see if he would be unfaithful, it was more like rekindling what they had before by playing a romantic game. Taking on a persona and bringing the mystery back into their relationship. Maybe a better pseudonym for her letters might have been Matryoshka, a doll within a doll, a many faceted woman that he had begun to take for granted.

    The wife was enticing him with letters to see if he would take the bait and cheat on her, what she didn't know was that he was only enticed because she was reminding him so much of herself when he fell in love with her, so when she went to meet him incognito (which means in disguise) he just immediately fell into her arms because he needed what his frigid wife could no longer give him (sex for one thing...remember he said just like his wife before she 'freezed' on him). He was actually falling in love with her all over again, but I have a feeling she won't see it that way...lol.

    Well, there is, just as so often in her lyrics, a twist: The lyrics say: "she couldn't have made a worst move..." - This is a kind of comment on the future of this relationship. Whatever her plan was - it has moment of failing in it. And when they meet icognito "he laid eyes on her" - maybe he will fall in love with the wrong lady, fall in love with a fantasy which will drive him further away from her as she had intended. - I heard, that Kate Bush chose the word Babooshka just because it sounded good. It is actually not an existing word. But maybe it has a kind of exotic touch to it that supports the image of a secret and mysterious lady. Just a supplement - I was wrong: Babooshka (babushka) is an existing word. It means granny.

    English is not my native language (I'm from Brazil) and I discovered this song already as an adult. I didn't grow up on that. That said, I understand the language since my teenage years, and I also know Babooshka means "grandma" in slavic languages. And the song keeps me invested, locked in, almost in a trance, until I heard the BABOOSHKA, BABOOSHKA, BABOOSHKA YAYAAAA...
    I always imagine the man cheating on his wife with her grandma, and always laugh like a maniac at that part. I just can't! That the kind of curve ball that makes a man think about a woman for the rest of his life. I fell in love with her because of this video.

    She went to see him "incognito" = in disguise. And yes perhaps there was an element of sorcery with those scented letters! Kate did incorporate some strange (and prophetic) subjects into her songs: like Cloudbusting (1985) -- which has a theme of weather manipulation in the song and video. Something which until recently we didn't even know was being used (geo-engineering etc.)

    As others have said Baboshka means grandmother in Russian but at the time Kate didn't know that. It was the name of a friends cat and she liked it. Also this song was one of the first, if not the first, to use a synthesiser for the smashing glass sound.

    Babooshka is a Russian word.. B(a)booshka, stress in Russian grammar is placed on the second letter.Ba(boo)shka,accent doesn't sound respectful,vulgarly.Babooshka а grandmother is a woman who has grandchildren
    In Russian, have the word dedushka-grandfather

    Kate said this song was about a woman building something huge out of nothing & deciding to test her husband!
    BUT! Instead of his thinking it the advances of some exotic, exciting new woman, HE’S seeing his wife before her growing distant & cool!
    Also, she ghouythe word babooshka sounded exotic...not learning that it’s a a Russian grandmother till the song was recorded LOL!
    The woman is a towering genius with her aural sculptures & brilliant words!

    I'll explain this one. She was Babooshka and she was writing love letters to her own husband to test him to see if he was faithful and he did not pass the test that she put before him by writing these notes as she posed as a younger woman named Babooshka seeming to seduce him even though it was her herself. :) Great to see your videos K.S.O. much Love - BenjiRu

      yes; funny, it's almost the same premise as "Escape" by Rupert Holmes "The pina colada song". The lesson is the same: don't test your loved ones. Sneaky traps engender sneaky reactions.

    Sorry if I'm duplicating, but my take is Babooshka is the pseudonym the wife used to tempt her husband. First by the letter, then in person. Wife was heavily disguised at the meet. Husband fell for her because of her being reminiscent of his wife early in the relationship. But something had happened and so the wife had frozen on him. It all went horribly wrong - wife killed husband for infidelity.
    If you've not done Kate's Moments of Pleasure, it's one of the most gorgeous songs there is.

    The wife tests the husband to see if he would cheat. She showed up incognito. That is, in a disguise
    The irony is that he had felt like he knew this disguised women. She reminded him of his wife before the tears and the self doubts. He just wanted his wife back and fell for this women that reminded him of his wife, but when she loved him
    So the irony was if she just changed her attitude and showed interest in him, maybe he would not have strayed...not that it excuses this, but it can be a sad story played out too often.

    You poor dear!! The sound at the end, is glass breaking at the couple's home after he makes a pass at her in the bar. It's an auditory representation of the fight the couple had at home after the meeting. It can be argued either way that she shouldn't have done it (tempted him) or he didn't have to meet her (the writer of the note). But as the song goes, that was the point of the glass breaking sounds at the end of the song. Kate said in an interview it was fun smashing all the glass to get the right sounds for the song.
