the sensual world

• mmmmmmyesssssss, sensüelötesi kate bush yapiti, vespertine seksenler $ubesi.
  
  "the title song could give henry james a boner" buyurmu$ robert christgau^*. bunu bilemeyiz ancak bana verdigi kesin:
  
  mmmmm yes,
  
  then i'd taken the kiss of seedcake back from his mouth
  going deep south, go down, mmmm yes,
  took six big wheels and rolled our bodies
  off of howth head and into the flesh, mmmmm yes,
  
  he said i was a flower of the mountain, yes,
  but now i've powers o'er a woman's body, yes.
  
  stepping out of the page into the sensual world.
  stepping out. . . .
  
  to where the water and the earth caress
  and the down of a peach says mmmm yes,
  do i look for those millionaires
  like a machiavellian girl would
  when i could wear a sunset? mmmmmmmmyess,
  
  and how we'd wished to live in the sensual world
  you don't need words--just one kiss, then another.
  
  stepping out of the page into the sensual world
  stepping out, off the page, into the sensual world.
  
  and then our arrows of desire rewrite the speech, mmmm yes,
  and then he whispered would i, mmm yes,
  be safe, mmmmm yes, from mountain flowers?
  and at first with the charm around him, mmm yes,
  he loosened it so if it slipped between my breasts
  he'd rescue it, mmmmmmmyess,
  and his spark took life in my hand and, mmmmmmmm yess,
  i said, mmmmyesss,
  but not yet, mmmmmm yess,
  mmmmmmmmmmmyessssss
• deliler gibi sevismek istedigim albüm. yagmur altinda. (edit: kitsch albüme kitsch entry:) ama olsun. ben kendime biraz kitsch severim)
• müzik tarihinin en iyi albümlerinden biridir kanımca. hounds of love'dan daha çok severim.
• kate bush, meshur 'mmmmh yes'lerini esasen molly bloom'un ulysses'deki kapanis tiradindan esinlenerek bu sarkiya serpistirmistir. molly, gercek dünyaya adimini attigi anda icine düstügü duyusallikla mmm'lamaya, 'evet ... evet' demeye doymamistir:
  
  "mouth and it was leapyear like now yes 16 years ago, my god, after that long kiss, ı near lost my
  breath yes he said ı was a flower of the mountain, yes, so we are flowers, all a womans body yes that was one true thing he said in his life and the sun shines for you today yes that was why ı liked him because ı saw he understood or felt what a woman is and ı knew ı could always get round him and ı
  gave him all the pleasure ı could, leading him on till he asked me to say yes and ı wouldnt answer
  first, only looked out over the sea and the sky"
  
  kate bush, tiradin bu parcasini oldugu gibi müzigine uyarlamak istemistir ancak joyce miras birligi izin vermemistir (kate bush'a telif hakki vermeyen joyce estate'in ketumluklari cahillik olarak aciklanabilir sanirim). ancak cok sonralari, 2011 yilinda joyce'lar lisans izni vermis, kate de sarkiyi 'flower of the mountain' olarak tekrar kaydetmistir.
  
  mmmh, yes.
• aynı albümün sensual world adlı şarkısında kate bush ağaçların arasında savrulur. oryantal bir havası vardır şarkının.
