Description


A revamp of an image I played around with a while ago. The background is a view from Pendle Hill near Clitheroe. Unfortunately I had to reduce the size to upload. Hope you enjoy. Originally released on Kate's fifth studio album 'Hounds Of Love'. Released as the second single from the album on 14 October 1985. The song is about the very close relationship between psychologist and philosopher Wilhelm Reich and his young son, Peter, told from the point of view of the son. It describes the boy's memories of his life with Reich on their family farm, called Orgonon where the two spent time "cloudbusting", a rain-making process which involved pointing at the sky a machine designed and built by Reich, called a cloudbuster. The lyric further describes Wilhelm Reich's abrupt arrest and imprisonment, the pain of loss the young Peter felt, and his helplessness at being unable to protect his father. The song was inspired by Peter Reich's 1973 memoir, A Book of Dreams, which Bush read and found deeply moving. Kate actually contacted Peter Reich to explain her motives in writing 'Cloudbusting' and to express the wish that she hoped he would approve of the song. She received his reply a while later, saying that he loved what she was doing. The song was used in the eleventh episode of the third series of The Handmaid's Tale.

Steve, First this is a superb image! Then, before W. Reich became obsessed by the orgone, he was a very interesting man and I have read two very interesting books : The Mass Psychology of Fascism and The Function of the Orgasm,
