“Everything just seems to take so much time. I don't know why. Time… evaporates.”
Kate Bush (1958) British recording artist; singer, songwriter, musician and record producer
MOJO interview (2005)
Context: There were so many times I thought, "I'll have the album finished this year, definitely, we'll get it out this year." Then there were a couple of years where I thought, "I'm never gonna do this." If I could make albums quicker, I'd be on a roll wouldn't I? Everything just seems to take so much time. I don't know why. Time… evaporates.
