Kate Bush 50 Words for Snow

"[A] languorous, self-produced vamp that might even qualify as a 'song cycle'....It's impossible not to get lost in the drift."
"It's all gorgeous -- even the 13-minute 'Misty' -- but SNOW peaks with a stunning Elton John duet on which the pair play time-traveling lovers." -- Grade: A-
Ranked #40 in Uncut's '50 Best Albums Of 2011' -- "[An] extraordinary suite of winter songs."
"[Her voice] remains a thing of wonder, alternating between banshee-like swoops and hushed, sultry intimacy."
"The mood is subdued, the backing spare, meditative....The album's most remarkable moments are its quietest."
4 stars out of 5 -- "Bush's husky vocals rise through an ominous piano fog, generating a silvery chill..."
Paste (magazine) - "'Cloud-like' is a fairly fitting adjective for 50 WORDS FOR SNOW which blooms into your headphones with "Snowflake," an immersion of pillowy piano ambience, synth pulses and guitars that flicker like a dying flame."
