Kate Bush

50 Words for Snow received general acclaim from music critics. Both The Sensual World and The Red Shoes featured contributions from Trio Bulgarka the Bulgarian female vocal trio who sang on several tracks including "You're The One" and "Rocket's Tail". Her songs span genres as diverse as rock pop alternative and art rock.

After her 1979 tour – the only concert tour of her career – Bush released the 1980 album Never for Ever which made her the first British solo female artist to top the UK album charts and the first female artist ever to enter the album chart at Number 1. Bush was appointed Commander of the Most Excellent Order of the British Empire (CBE) in the 2013 New Year Honours for services to music.
