Kate's first New Release after I became a fan, I think I hold TRS in higher esteem than many people do. I used to have it playing on endless repeat while I played a game on my Spectrum 128+3 where you were a frog hopping round a castle collecting runes. Wish I could remember what that was called.

Rubberband Girl - Has basically one chord, (G#sus4 or something) which she bends and strains at all the way through the song, which is terribly clever
And So Is Love - I dont like blues but I like this, and the (very underrated) video with the daed birdie makes me cry
Eat The Music - LOVE it and wish they'd gone with it as the lead single. The 12" takes the bassline to all sorts of funky places and the lyrics can be interpreted rather filthily. Let down by the awful cheesy drum machine though - imagine this with a steel band.
Moments of Pleasure - TWW pt2 but pulled off very nicely. Speaking of which, my official virginity losing song, TMI fans!
The Song Of Solomon - "Dont want your bullshit... just want your sexuality" Auntie Kate is emo-horny and it's brilliant
Lilly - And now an old lady is doing spells. This is a fantastic album.
The Red Shoes - Return of the shitty 'drums' but the song still soars. Odd choice for a single though when they overlooked ETM.
Top of the City - Perfectly evocative of what it's trying to evoke, sad but graceful, nice piano/bass interplay.
Constellat[SKIP]
Big Stripey Lie - Dirty scary stuff which I love
Why shou[SKIP]
You're the One - So sad it aches, I always had a soft spot for Whiter Shade of Pale (as a kid having keyboard lessons I could almost intuitively play it on the organ despite it being way above my level at that point)

So yeah, an amazing, unusual, 10 track album from Kate.
