До того, как наткнулась на Илюшу, проревелась и начала слушать его лекцию перед студентами, я собиралась написать веселое про контакты и здешний никнейм.

Я прямо почувствовала себя сверхоригинальной, заполняя контакты в профайле.



Да-да, здесь я выпендрилась. Это моя любимая песня моей любимой Кейт Буш (моих любимых песен у Кейт Буш не перечесть).



Ну и слова самой Кейт, сначала полушуткой:
Kate: 'It's a song about searching for a glimpse of god and being hampered by life's obstacles and your fears.'
EMI: 'Okaaaay'
Kate: 'It's done to a polka tune'
EMI: 'Riiiiight - so what's 'Gaffa' Kate?''
Kate: 'I've no idea.'
EMI: 'An album track, eh?'
Kate: 'No, a single, of course'

Потом чуть серьезней:
""Gaffa" is Gaffa Tape. It is thick industrial tape, mainly used for taping down and tidying up the millions of leads, and particularly useful in concert situations. Suspended in Gaffa is trying to simulate being trapped in a kind of web: everything is in slow motion, and the person feels like they're tied up. They can't move. Defeat".
"I could explain some of it, if you want me to: "Suspended in Gaffa" is reasonably autobiographical, which most of my songs aren't. It's about seeing something that you want - on any level - and not being able to get that thing unless you work hard and in the right way towards it. When I do that I become aware of so many obstacles, and then I want the thing without the work. And then when you achieve it you enter... a different level - everything will slightly change. It's like going through a time warp which otherwise wouldn't have existed".
