I saw the following article in rec.music.misc, and thought it might
give rise to interesting speculation:

Oh my, how can I miss that one!!!  I have 5 of Kate's CDs and I've
completely forgotten about her wide range!  NOw, my question is:
Which song(s) clearly shows this talent of hers?  "Sat In Your Lap"
is one song I could think of offhand that MAY show her highs
and lows. I'm at work right now so it's kinda impossible to go
thru my record collection and find another song :-)

Anyways, if someone could maybe post a list of Kate Bush's songs
that could show the wide range of her voice, I'd really appreciate
it.

I think maybe "Don't Push Your Foot ... " has the highest note, but I'm
not sure.  Ideas, anyone?
