Is directors cut really not an album? edit

I think kate said that she considers it to be a new album, and it's all re recorded versions of the older songs, not remixed versions, but with entirely new vocals, I think that counts as a new album 92.24.144.253 (talk) 13:21, 18 December 2023 (UTC)Reply

List of artists Bush influenced edit

Impressively well sourced, but this isn't good encylopedic content. It's just an unreadably long shopping list of names. Popcornfud (talk) 16:45, 20 March 2024 (UTC)Reply

Additionally, the list is introduced as people who have "stated their admiration for Bush's work". This is not the same thing as being influenced by Bush. In the Sheryl Crow source, for example, Crow just says she "got so into" her, she doesn't say she was influenced by her, and so this feels WP:UNDUE and misleading for the article heading ("Influence").

Yes, I agree. I've looked back at the Talk page edit history for this page and this was raised quite recently as a question, but that discussion appears to have been archived rather quickly. https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Talk:Kate_Bush&diff=prev&oldid=1176101372

Man, I have no memory of that previous discussion, how troubling.
Your improvements to this section have been great. Keep up the good work. Popcornfud (talk) 22:41, 20 March 2024 (UTC)Reply

Musical style and voice edit

"her music has differed from American pop norms"... er, and also perhaps Arabic, Chinese, and Indian pop norms? What is the point here?2A00:23C6:AE82:5D01:E87F:C8F2:8BC:7C4F (talk) 19:23, 2 April 2024 (UTC)Reply
