When you think of the similarities between them, it really is staggering: both possess completely distinctive voices, both brilliant songwriters who've had hit songs with weird and wonderful material like Life On Mars? and Wuthering Heights, both know their way around around an old piano, both incredibly well read and eloquent... hell, they're both good looking bastards as well - of course, in the most unconventional ways imaginable; you don't have to be a homosexual to recognise that despite having different coloured eyes and (originally) very English teeth, Bowie is a fine specimen of a man. And obviously, Kate is simply gorgeous; big hair, ugly red dresses, and all.

And yeah, a Bowie/Bush collab. would've been ruddy amazing. I'm thinking 1985, when Kate was shit hot, and Bowie was in his career lull... Trying to repeat the commercial success of Let's Dance, Bowie lost his weirdness and his edge... Well if there was one person who could've delivered it back to him at that time, it'd've been Kate Bush.
