pardon my history if its wrong but if Persephone is the daughter of Zeus

as it says above/below does this mean then that Persephone is Kate Bush?

(as in the kick inside 'i'll send my love to Zeus) I also think that When the Levee

is the best ever song sung by a man. I thought the drums were loud!!!

@flaxlawna Not sure my friend, but I do recall Kate singing

that in her classic song from "The Kick Inside" :) love those great-

thumping drums here to :-))

@Arpeggio555 Hi there a classic track and classic album :)

In Greek mythology, Persephone is the daughter of Zeus and the harvest-goddess Demeter, and queen of the underworld; she was abducted by Hades, the god-king of the underworld.

In Classical Greek art, Persephone is invariably portrayed robed; often carrying a sheaf of grain. In Roman mythology, she is called Proserpina

@DinaTheNomad Hi there, thanks for that, its cool to find-out

the meanings behind the name Persephone my friend :))

[MsMetalBabe100]

fuck i am LOVING this song!!

[discoverydavid]

Persephone has the grace and bite of a Latin American girl fallen on bad times in a New York strip club waking up from the nightmare of the American dream.

@posypity Ha-ha sounds good to me, big purse,lots of money :)

[posypity]

before i got posh i thought this song was about a phone in a purse.

it would have had to have been a rather large purse at the time.
