There is a fantastic story to be told about Kate Bush, possibly the greatest woman in music history. Unfortunately here we are forced to listen to it via the pretentious musings of desperate fellow musicians, each trying to outdo the other with their superlatives and non sequiturs. Elton John, Saint Vincent, Bat for Lashes, the Alan Partridge guy (who starts one of his statements with "Byron once said of Keats..." - I assume he was in character), each of them has swallowed a thesaurus and spews out the results in front of us. Just imagine 20 people all saying "And I was like, wow!" and save yourself the trouble of watching this. It was made in 2014 so one can't escape the feeling it was just an advertising puff for her Hammersmith Odeon shows. Three stars for the Kate clips.
