Salon reconsidered Kate Bush's The Dreaming album on its 40th anniversary.
...Bush was never content to duplicate herself or stay stagnant. When "The Dreaming" arrived in stores on September 13, 1982 — with a slightly different version of "Sat In Your Lap" right up front at track one — it was immediately apparent that she had entered a new and powerful phase of her career. The album is about giving yourself permission to be chaotic and imperfect, to stop suppressing messy thoughts and emotions. Rage, anguish, sadness, grief, alienation — "The Dreaming" lets them bubble up to the surface and boil over.
