"Symphony in Blue" is the second of the three Lionheart singles to go. It was released solely in Canada and Japan as the second single. I personally think this is one of her most unremarkable songs, and possibly her worst song vocally, yet I still only gave it a 5. It's not that it's bad it's just it pales in comparison to lots of stuff. I've listened to it like ~8-10 times and I still can barely recall it.

A bit late, but "Them Heavy People" is such a funny song.

Erm, you guys probably overrated "The Man With..." a bit too much. It should not see the Top 20.

"Lake Tahoe" is the first song from Kate Bush's most recent album 50 Words for Snow out. It was not a single, however we desperately were in need for more recent singles in this rate, and it had a video, so I added it. The song is apparently about a Victorian ghost who summons her dog each night. I personally think it's the weakest of the three songs from the album, but it has its moments of pure beauty.

"Deeper Understanding" is the track to get the most 10s so far, I think. It's really no surprise why. The remix version (the track was originally on The Sensual World but edited in 2011 as the lead single to Director's Cut) is one of her most ambitious songs. It is the story of a human who becomes obsessed with a computer. Her son speaks through a vocoder as the computer's voice. I think it's a great idea but slightly awkward in execution, and I sometimes slightly prefer the 1989 album version.

I do prefer the original version a lot more, the new voice of the computer ruins it for me.

I'm not surprised Deeper Understanding got punched so early, you gurls couldn't take Kate READING you for filth?

LT is great, it should have been a bit higher
I prefer the original version of DU although the vocoder adds a lot to the song ! I love how Kate predicted the furure too
