What’s your favorite Guy Fawkes Night song, and why is it “Rocket’s Tail” by Kate Bush from her 1989 album The Sensual World?
The song follows that old cliche of your friend says it must be fun to be a firework rocket, and you say that’s dumb, only to realize that your friend may have a point, so you dress up like a firework rocket and jump off a bridge and have a great time, and thusly learn to better appreciate the perspectives of others.
You know that old chestnut.
Bonus fun facts: David Gilmour does a nice little guitar solo and Bulgarian ensemble Trio Bulgarka provide backup vocals on the track. They all sound great!
Happy Day Threading!
