I’m quite a private person and I like my work to do the talking.

I have intentions as a writer, but people – when they’re listening to a track – will take from it what they interpret.

The thing with 50 Words of Snow is that it was literally back-to-back from Director’s Cut [also released in 2011]. It was more or less that I got to make two albums in one hit. I was already in this space in my mind to be writing and making an album.

Nobody really knows, do they? They told Stephen Hawking he only had a year left to live and how many years ago was that? You can’t know it all.

Maybe if my songs feel personal, that’s very nice. I like that. I take that as a great compliment.

I think snow is so evocative and has such a powerful atmosphere.

Powerful Snow Thinking
Its so fascinating to think about how each snowflake is completely individual – there are millions and millions of them, but each one is so unique.

I love words, I think they’re fascinating and incredibly wonderful things and part of the joy of my work is that I not only get to work with music but also with words. Sometimes it’s a difficult process but a lot of the time it’s really fun.

Irish folk is probably the biggest influence musically that I’ve ever had. My mother’s Irish. And when I was very young, both my brothers were very into traditional music, English and Irish. They were always playing music, so I was always brought up with it.

It’s not that I don’t like American pop; I’m a huge admirer of it, but I think my roots came from a very English and Irish base. Is it all sort of totally non-American sounding.
KATE BUSH

Admirer Roots Thinking
I don’t really listen to a great deal of music. I love music, but since I spend a lot of time in the studio, we probably watch a movie rather than listen to albums. I get to hear stuff, but not on the grand scale.
