| Kate Bush – King of the Mountain Lyrics | 7 years ago |
| the song's about mortality. listen to the spooky vibe. Kate's mother had died and the album Aerial is about facing up to grief and mortality and choosing to live. This song opens the album and sets the scene. Losing a parent suddenly your own mortality is crystal clear. Fame changes nothing. The wind is whistling through the house. Kate thinks of Elvis and his obvious fear of death, filling his home with junk. Elvis are you out there somewhere? Did he cheat death? Will he rise again? The answer is no. Death not Elvis is King. The wind it blows the door closed. | |
