Kate Bush - Length of Time Between Albums and Perception of Perfectionism

Length of Time Between Albums and Perception of Perfectionism

The length of time in between album releases has led to rumours in the media concerning her health or appearance. In the past, stories of weight gain or mental instability have been disproved by Bush's periodic reappearance. In 2011 Bush told BBC Radio 4 that the amount of time between album releases is extremely stressful noting: "It's very frustrating the albums take as long as they do...I wish there weren't such big gaps between them." In the same interview Bush denied she was a perfectionist in the studio, saying: "I think it's important that things are flawed...That's what makes a piece of art interesting sometimes – the bit that's wrong or the mistake you've made that's led onto an idea you wouldn't have had otherwise," and reiterated her prioritisation of her family life.

Famous quotes containing the words length, time and/or perception:

    With the ancient is wisdom; and in length of days understanding.
    Bible: Hebrew Job 12:12.

    Man is always more than he can know of himself; consequently, his accomplishments, time and again, will come as a surprise to him.
    Golo Mann (b. 1909)

    What, then, is the basic difference between today’s computer and an intelligent being? It is that the computer can be made to see but not to perceive. What matters here is not that the computer is without consciousness but that thus far it is incapable of the spontaneous grasp of pattern—a capacity essential to perception and intelligence.
    Rudolf Arnheim (b. 1904)
