At the age of 12 she translated the complete works of Alexei Sayle into English, and at 16 she was rumoured to be the first explorer to circumnavigate the M25. Bush has always strived to be different, but this quest has often led her astray -- an olive stone in the ashtray of life. `Hounds of Love' eschews the lentil nightmare as Bush reaches notes most groups never even dream of. The lentil nightmare? Besides, what better to be than an olive stone in the ashtray of life? >From Sounds (18 Feb 86?): Thousands of copies of Dirkheims's *The Division of Labour* hit rag rugs in halls of residence nationwide as `Small Blue Thing' occupies the microturntable. Nice. Celery, knickers on radiators, Snoopy posters, and Suzanne. She takes you down alright... I think I'm gonna be ill.... "Today I am a small blue thing" Doug P.S.
