"The Big Sky" and "Hounds of Love" Mainly because "RUTH, even though it's been beaten to death by airplay and remixes, is probably the best and most commercial song on the album (excluding "TNW") Also, Cloudbusting is my second favorite on this side. Instrumentally, I like "TBS" very much. The words don't set my pants on fire tho' "HOL" however, is beautifully composed and delivered. The use of strings, especially the Viola, build the interest and drama of the piece. The harmonies are quirky and unique. Just not a top 2.

"Hounds of Love" and "The Big Sky" ...ditto Al! Mainly because I LOVE RUTH and Cloudbusting... (Cloudbusting especially ) so those two had to be the two I chose...

The Big Sky & Cloudbusting

Right, I'm voting off: The Big SkyThe voices in the background are extremely effective in the build-up of this song. She certainly gets excited! Hounds Of LoveI voted for this last week, but since then I've been desperate to listen to it! Just goes to show how strong Kate's music is, if I'm desperate to listen to my least favourite!

The Big Sky--I do like it, but this song took the longest to grow on me. Although I am aware it is intentionally busy, I sometimes find this a bit distracting. Then again, the song is ABOUT being distracted! But I can't vote off the others...
Cloudbusting--I REALLY don't have a reason for voting this one off except I like the other two better.

I was gonna say something about the pentagram-like quality of the new stars but decided not to. Glad to see I'm not totally crazy. Well, maybe I am, but at least I'm not the only one who noticed that.

Oh no! What a Choice Deep breath - vote off Hounds of Love and The Big Sky. Why? Because I love the other 2 so much... For me personally its such a shame to lose TBS, its such a happy 'up' song and KB sounds like she's having a ball. Shame as well about HOL, with its striking imagery and stark instrumentation. Still, RUTH and Cloudbursting have just got to go through haven't they - its nearly a no brainer!

Oh I always used to say "Cloudbursting" too, it makes more sense to my brain! But then again I always want to call "This Woman's Work", "This Woman's Worth" because of the dreadful Alicia Keys song...

I have to say that if "Cloudbusting" doesn't win, I'll cry, scream and run around the board throwing temper tantrums and kicking my legs about like a squished fly. just kidding or am I?
