Happy Autumnal Equinox!




Nick Drake-"Time of No Reply" with video of his home and grave. Film by Julian Davies.



Summer was gone and the heat died down
And Autumn reached for her golden crown
I looked behind as I heard a sigh
But this was the time of no reply.

The sun went down and the crowd went home
I was left by the roadside all alone
I turned to speak as they went by
But this was the time of no reply.

The time of no reply is calling me to stay
There is no hello and no goodbye
To leave there is no way.

The trees on the hill had nothing to say
They would keep their dreams till another day
So they stood and thought and wondered why
For this was the time of no reply.

Time goes by from year to year
And no one asks why I am standing here
But I have my answer as I look to the sky
This is the time of no reply.

The time of no reply is calling me to stay
There`s no hello and no goodbye
To leave there is no way.



Happy Vernal Equinox to everyone in the Southern Hemisphere.

The Dreaming turns 30 years old today.



 The Dreaming is a brilliant album! A true masterpiece. It was released on September 13, 1982. I'm listening to it as I post on all of my blogs and social networking sites. Celebrating the 30th anniversary of The Dreaming. It's a great day. :-)

Hurricane Isaac.

Photobucket We're riding out Hurricane Isaac. We're in the country on the outskirts of New Iberia, LA. The sugarcane is gorgeous, right now. I hope the winds are kind to the sugarcane.

 Isaac will make landfall either late this evening or early tomorrow morning. I will probably lose electricity for a couple of days. I hope everyone stays safe!

My precious cat died. I miss her so much!





Pictures of my beloved cat. My oldest cat, Little Kat, died on August 23. It came out of nowhere. She threw a blood clot. I’m devastated. All I’ve done since then is cry. I miss her so much. I’m going to buy a concrete memorial cat statue to put near her grave. I have pretty flowers near her grave, right now. She is buried near a beautiful Cedar Tree. 
I have two other cats, Pumpkin and Pepper, and they keep looking for her. It is breaking my heart.  
Thankfully, I have several pictures of Little Kat and I also have several videos of her. It’s a comfort.

Nick Drake-Saturday Sun



I just launched my Nick Drake Blog. http://nicholasrodneydrake.blogspot.com/   Nick is a singer/songwriter and a musician. His music means  the world to me. He has touched me so deeply. So has Kate. Such soulful music from soulful human beings. I have an autoimmune disease and Nick and Kate's music bring me comfort and courage. RIP sweet Nick. You were too good in your way. Too beautiful for this world.

Nick's Lyrics-Saturday Sun 

Saturday sun came early one morning
In a sky so clear and blue
Saturday sun came without warning
So no-one knew what to do.
Saturday sun brought people and faces
That didn't seem much in their day
But when I remember those people and places
They were really too good in their way.
In their way
In their way
Saturday sun won't come and see me today.

Think about stories with reason and rhyme
Circling through your brain.
And think about people in their season and time
Returning again and again
And again
And again
And Saturday's sun has turned to Sunday's rain.

So Sunday sat in the Saturday sun
And wept for a day gone by.

"Running up that Hill" 2012 remix.

The song is not available as a single in the US. You have to purchase the Olympics Closing ceremony CD, " A Symphony of British Music" in order to own the remix. Kate's worth it.   They have the song listed separately , but it is unavailable. :( http://www.amazon.com/Running-Up-That-Hill/dp/B008X8ZY0C/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1344905532&sr=8-2&keywords=kate+bush+running+up+that+hill+2012
Hopefully, it will become available as a single.

Will She or Won't She?

Rumors abound. Will Kate Bush perform at the Olympics Closing Ceremony?  I would be shocked if she did. Anything is possible, though. We will all find out soon enough. I adore Kate no matter what she does or doesn't do. She is a true creative spirit.
ETA: EdwardG: Latest on Twitter from journalist Patrick Strudwick, @patrickstrud: "Someone involved in the closing ceremony has just told me that Kate Bush will not be performing. I weep."  Kate Bush News Forum

Kate Bush

Under The Ivy

It wouldn't take me long
To tell you how to find it
To tell you where we'll meet
This little girl inside me
Is retreating to her favourite place

Go into the garden
Go under the ivy
Under the leaves
Away from the party
Go right to the rose
Go right to the white rose
(For me)

I sit here in the thunder
The green on the grey
I feel it all around me
And it's not easy for me
To give away a secret
It's not safe

But go into the garden
Go under the ivy
Under the leaves
Away from the party
Go right to the rose
Go right to the white rose
(For me)

Go into the garden
Go under the ivy
Go under the leaves with me
Go right to the rose
Go right to the white rose
I'll be waiting for you

It wouldn't take me long
To tell you how to find it
Kate Bush
