S05E14 – Burning Bridge

Don’t worry, you won’t have to be waiting all night long for a new b-side episode! We’re indeed going to tell you all about this week’s song, Burning Bridge. Recorded specifically as a b-side and stated as such by Kate herself, Burning Bridge is a frenzied, militaristic song with tons of background vocals, a charging beat, pounding piano, and an intense lead vocal. This b-side continues the tradition of Kate releasing a song that’s completely different than the a-side (in this case, Cloudbusting). Diego Ortega, another young Kate fan, is on the show this week to discuss with Cecilee why this is one of his favorite Kate Bush songs, and they discuss the musical structure, its release, and also try to figure out why they both love this song so much!
