S06E09 - Rocket's Tail

Strange Phenomena - A podcast by Cecilee Linke - Sundays

Get ready to shoot off into the sky on a chilly November night, with track number 9 from The Sensual World, Rocket's Tail! And to join us on the show is friend of (and also outside of!) the show, Zoey, who cites this song as one of her underrated favorites from Kate's catalog! In this episode, we talk about the dialogue (yes, this is a dialogue song!) between the characters in the song, we speculate about WHO exactly is shooting off into the night, and we talk about, of course, the lovely Trio Bulgarka's contributions to the song and how there is NOTHING else like this in Kate's endless array of songs. A song that begins a cappella, then explodes into an 80s rock song? Not something you'll find everyday! Only with the lovely Kate Bush!
