Have a nice Bloomsday

Today is June 16, which is one of those nice literary anniversaries, as it's the day that the events in James Joyce's novel Ulysses unfold. 

To mark the occasion, here's the recently released remake Kate Bush did of her song The Sensusal World, this time as she meant to record it: with the lyrics of the Molly Bloom soliloquy at the novel's close. The James Joyce Estate had denied her permission for the original project, in 1989, but obviously came around. 

The new version is called Flower of the Mountain: 

Here's what the song sounded like when Bush wrote her own words; it's one of my favourites, and a great literary tip of the hat, too.
