I was trying to gauge what you were thinking to this prog masterpiece. 😂😂😂 "it was got really weird toward the middle but that was a great song". The Dreaming was the first album of Kate's where she had near total control. She was doing it all. She was writer, arranger, vocals, and musician AND producer. If you didn't catch it, this song isn't about a house. It's about a person who is guarded and (somewhat) stubbornly won't let anyone in. She is the concierge "won't let you in for love, nor money". The "keeper" of her house. The only one with the key. The mule sounds at the end (ala the stubborness of mules) referring to her own stubbornness. Saying in the final verse ...she is the mule. I think you finally are getting that Kate's songs aren't just songs. They are experiences. It's like going on a journey with a storyteller. Like an old english bard (a bard being a singer writer who told in song what was happening in his time) for modern music. Now you hear in this both the use of her alto voice in the lead vocal and her soprano voice in the backing vocal. So, she is quite capable of a broad vocal range and adds so much inflection to her vocal. Plus the distortion she's adding to her backing voice on her own. Then there's the actual distorted voice of the Concierge lines in the break. Like they have picked up the phone to a guest's call. The guest being a potential love or just maybe the outside world at large. She uses her voice playfully and to tell the story of each song. Her use of her full range can vary from song to song or even within the song. If I had to peg Kate as a personality type I'd likely go infp. This is the introverted idealist personality type. Throwing that in bc sometimes it helps to understand who a person is in order to know how they come at life and for an artist ..how they approach their art I'm glad you liked this. This whole album is a hell of a lot of fun. She is all over the place on it experimenting with instrumentation, effects, accents, and topics of war ("Pull Out The Pin" and resource mining on Aboriginal Land ("The Dreaming"). On this album, Kate is really stretching and she said she had alot of fun making it. It's her first work where she was completely in charge of it as producer. However, her record company wasn't real sold on what they were hearing at the time. "What's that at the end? A mule"? 😂😂😂. Thankfully they trusted her enough to release it. Kate was only about 23 in that picture, and roughly only 22 when making this. That's her longtime boyfriend, band member and collaborator Del Palmer in the picture. I think this photo (as is alot of her photos) was taken by oldest brother John Calder Bush, a photographer and poet. I would have to read once again why the ring in the mouth. But I'm guessing either commitment is maybe being forced down her throat or she's lingering in the idea of it. To commit by figuratively maybe biting the ring like biting the bullet. Or that commitment is via saying and doing. Not in a ceremony or symbolism. In the end, her and Del went separate ways romantically but stayed close through musical collaboration. In between this album and her next album "Hounds of Love" she took full control by building her own home music studio. And, so then she no longer is bound by time limits with costly studio time. Not to forget early on her family was instrumental in making sure Kate did and would always own the rights to her own music. So you could say this is her full arrival (nearly) to being a full on baller and shot caller. She's the Picasso of music. She can do abstract very well. But also goth, pop, rnbish soul. Basically does it all. Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for the shout out. If you want to listen to another similar vocal on this album I would listen to "Pull Out The Pin". The Dreaming she's using a kind of vocal accent to tell the story. The video is kind of artsy fun on that one. You never really know what you're going to get with Kate except the fact that you never know what you're going to get. That's the fun. And she's definitely got 🔥
I'm so glad that you liked it, because when quite a few people who react to it, the first time wonder what the hell they've just listened to!. This was the closing track from Kate's 4th studio album "The Dreaming" and it was the first one where she was the sole producer. The album is considered to be her most experimental one, so there are plenty more interesting tracks on it. Because the album took almost two years to create and involved a considerable amount of expensive studio time and didn't contain anything which resembled a regular commercial track, some music executives at EMI (her record company), were extremely angry and suggested that the company reject the entire album. However, wiser people at EMI, knew that Kate woild never agree to rework the album, since this album was precisely what she wanted to do and she wouldn't back down. In terms of UK single releases there were: 📍Sat In Your Lap - released a year before the release date of the completed album 📍There Goes A Tenner 📍The Dreaming The following track was released in mainland Europe, instead of "There Goes A Tenner": 📍Suspended In Gaffa Finally, the following track was released in Ireland only: 📍Night Of The Swallow ====================== The meaning of "Get Out Of My House", it was inspired by the Stephen King Novel "The Shining" and the 1979 film Alien. The house represents a woman, who has for some unknown reason decided to reject everyone, to close herself away from any possible relationship. When someone attempts to get to her, she presents a stubborn front like a mule.
By the way your face during the mule sounds at the end "priceless" 👍✌🏼😅
