I adore it, but am saving it as a special "winter" experience.  I'll play it once or twice a year when snow is falling, and when I have time to sit there and really listen, then put it away till next time.  The magic isn't there on a hot August dayWink

Hi,
 
I can't vote for a favorite song ... for me the album is not a bunch of songs ... it's a magnificent stream of conssiousness, and beautifully done.
 
I could stand, at a party, and just read the poetry, and let it flow ... or publish it in a book ... and people would think that this is beautiful wording and work ... but in a place like this, it is totally wasted as just a song with lyrics!
 
Such a bummer!
 
Reducing this to "songs", is really sad ... and demeans, one of the most progressive albums I have heard in years ... but we can only hear songs and formats ... not music, anymore. We don't even know ... what music is anymore, unless it is, or sounds like, everything else!
  
How sad ... because this is, by far, the best album I have heard in the last 10 years. Djam Karet-Herd of Indentity get the 2nd nod by less than a millionth of an inch!

Music is not just for listening ... it is for LIVING ... you got to feel it to know what's it about! Not being told!

Have had the album for a few years but had never really digested it until recently.  I can't say I'm a great fan of Kate Bush - I'd always admired her stuff but there was something about the glossy production and 80s synths that drove me off.....but Snow is different, as was Ariel - both excellent albums.

 
Just a bump for a word of exceptional beauty....ethereal, yet real; spacy, yet grounded; hazy, yet accessible. 
I like to feel the suspense when you're certain you know I am there.....
