Kate Bush - Rinfy The Gypsy

[IAmPlaysWithSquirrel]

So much raw talent at such a young age...

[MissNeverForEverKB]

@Citylight74 yay! Me too! I want to be just like her when I grow up, she's just amazing and her voice.... Beautiful.

I am pretty sure Kate is talking about her Animus (jungian) and the mythology discovering her animus put her through. Well that's what happened to me, and this song seems to describe it to a T.

[Citylight74]

@oddn: I think, she´s started to play piano in age of six !

[never4everuk]

i think this is my all time fave Kb song and that's like picking your favourite child.

[theawkwards]

there's only one kate bush!

favourited.

[CrimsonDiamond]

There's something about the nakedness of just Kate and a piano, so pure it pierces the soul. Gives me butterflies, but in a good way :)

[BewareTheSliverman]

Rinfey the Gypsy is my favourite Kate Bush character. You will find him on the Advanced Level of Beware the Sliverman. Thanks for posting.

[oddn]

The quality of her piano playing is exceptional, and she was only 14! God, I'm overwhelmed by the genius of this fabulous woman.

[Cyrus2182]

@oddn Excellent performance yes, but if this is actually from '76 she was 17/18 years old.

I loved this song the first time I heard it. Does anyone know where I can find the sheet music.

[arosegrowingold]

'Carry me away on his steed'

Anyone else couldn't sing that!

Pity Kate can't get away with 'hazy goldfish in your swimming eyes'

What a lyricist - and she was 14!

[ebdomero]

Most of her demo tapes are very nice...

[kikkiokioli]

I'm only familiar with about 20% of her official release output, but for some reason I know this one. I think someone on atforumz posted it for download several years back. I like it.

Lovely song, never heard this before. I have or had almost all of Kate's albums.

[KateFan]

Except the bootlegs. ;-) Theres dozens of songs like this that you won't find elsewhere. All from demo tapes.
