Bush, Kate - Moments Of Pleasure Lyrics






Some moments that I've had
Some moments of pleasure

I think about us lying
Lying on a beach somewhere
I think about us diving
Diving off a rock, into another moment

The case of George the Wipe
Oh God I can't stop laughing
This sense of humour of mine
It isn't funny at all
Oh but we sit up all night
Talking about it

Just being alive
It can really hurt
And these moments given
Are a gift from time

On a balcony in New York
It's just started to snow
He meets us at the lift
Like Douglas Fairbanks
Waving his walking stick
But he isn't well at all
The buildings of New York
Look just like mountains through the snow

Just being alive
It can really hurt
And these moments given
Are a gift from time
Just let us try
To give these moments back
To those we love
To those who will survive

And I can hear my mother saying
"Every old sock meets an old shoe"
Isn't that a great saying?
"Every old sock meets an old shoe"
Here come the Hills of Time

Hey there Maureen,

Hey there Bubba,
Dancing down the aisle of a plane,

'S Murph, playing his guitar refrain,

Hey there Teddy,
Spinning in the chair at Abbey Road,

Hey there Michael,
Do you really love me?

Hey there Bill,
Could you turn the lights up?

Bush, Kate Moments Of Pleasure Comments
  1. H.... ....

    See it was not this bad last time. She literally says it word for word in her videos, and still she doesn't wake up. I have literally no idea how you people would put your shoes on in the morning without the prettiest star to show you. Lucifer disagrees with God's sentiment in that last sentence. It is definitely Venus that is the prettiest star. God says I may have it, as David has said so. Ooh er, I do beg your pardon. I honestly did not mean to slip that in. Oh, what am I worrying about, you people never see the innuendo and you always miss the clues.

  3. L.... a....

    One of her greatest songs

  4. F.... B....

    Moments of Pleasure es, junto con sus tres primeros álbumes, la razón por la que, a mi parecer, Kate Bush es la nº 1 de la historia del pop. El título sugiere una temática erótica y, sin embargo, es un memorial de seres queridos fallecidos antes de 1993, es una canción cargada de buenos sentimientos y delicaleza.

  5. P.... P....

    The intro reminds me of the spoken word segments in Blind Gaurdian's Nightfall on Middle Earth

  6. K.... A....

    Okay, from the comments it’s not just me who cries when I hear this. Such a delicate and fragile song, but so beautiful.

  7. T.... B....

    She looks really beautiful in this video. ..Mahou's secret crush ...lol.
    oh what a voice. ..Amazing!💙👍
    "Eat the music" people.😉

  8. S.... ....

    "To live is to suffer, to survive is to find some meaning in the suffering."
    Friedrich Nietzsche.

  9. b.... ....

    yo im like really tired rn and that intro tripped me the fuck out

  10. M.... T....

    Yes a powerful song telling the pain missing loved ones. It's strange the anger the things you should have said can not be said. Gone but not forgotten

  11. S.... ....

    "I wish my shadow would get up and walk beside me."
    Jandy Nelson

  12. S.... ....

    "A hope beyond the shadow of a dream."
    John Keats

  13. S.... ....

    "The eye is always caught by light, but shadows have more to say."
    Gregory Maguire.

  14. S.... ....

    Whoever it was that told Kate that she could do "acting" should have been horsewhipped! She was awful, shocking, and beyond terrible. When the music starts, though... oh my....

  15. R.... R....

    Thank you once again darling Kate Bush! This makes me cry and think of my mom and my darling Gabriel every time I hear this ... may
    I meet them somehow someway someday again. SO BEAUTIFUL Is YOUR SOUL!

  16. P.... M....

    That made me dizzy.

  17. J.... F....

  18. W.... W....

    The whirling Dervish prayer and understanding. Love it. Deep prayer of the the self.

  19. Z.... Z....

    Thank you, Kate, for this song. It is a thing of true beauty.

  20. T.... E....

    Kate always had a way of investigating your soul.

  21. S.... Z....

    Kate..Magic Mystical and Beauty of Soul and Spirit in human form and human movement and wonderous haunting human voice.' 💙💜😏💙💜..'Who ever imagined that Faeries were not real an true knows not of Kate.'
    (/-\)..

  22. T.... F....

    hmmmmmmm .... What was that? This must be a transformation from an other world? Art is a transformation of words, those can't be heard.

  23. R.... W....

  32. B.... H....

    New socks must get very lonely.

  33. C.... S....

    Every old sock needs a new shoe.....Isn't that a great saying.

  34. C.... S....

    I can’t believe she invented ASMR with this video.

  35. D.... S....

    What a once in a lifetime talent!
    I once had a girlfriend who looked very much like her. To this day when I hear a Kate Bush song I visualize Colleen singing it.
    I know weird but hey what are you going to do
    Have been listening to her for a very long time and loving it all.
    I now tell others that she is the female David Bowie with the two of them worked together on some project.
    She is an amazing talent beauty and woman.

  36. N.... ....

    I want this played at my funeral, along with "Oh Thank You, Great Spirit" by Chicago.

  37. w.... l....

    Thank you for being in the world Kate , thank you for what you've brought and this song is beautiful

    These moments of Pleasure, Are a Gift From Time.

  48. S.... S....

    On September 6th, my best friend took his own life. The one thing we never aruged about was Kate. She is our Goddess. Now when I hear this song, I think of my bestie. He is no longer in pain. He is no longer disappointed by his family and friends who once there for him. I stood by him until the end. He called me 1 minute before he hung himself. I will never forgive myself for sleeping through that call. I no longer leave my house. I have no friends that I see in person anymore. I have given up.

    S.... S....

    What happened? I don't have many friends now. But I live for me and my family. My nephews. There is lots to live for. Don't give up, as Kate sang. Don't give up.

  49. R.... C....

    And this is why I don’t buy shoes at PayLess.

  50. R.... n....

    This is art.

  51. R.... A....

    I must admit...i listen to this most days, Kate Bush is the only drug i have ever taken, it started when i was 12yrs old with "the man with the child in his eyes" which was my cannabis, then i moved on to the "kick inside " album, that was given to me for free by a guy i worked with,now i am needing a fix of "the coral room" and "moments of pleasure" every day! but this drug goes in my ear.....not my nose... and it has a huge effect on my brain! HELP!!...i need more....come on Kate we all need more......please.....please ....please!...MORE.

  52. m.... ....

    Just. Wow.

  53. J.... H....

    hey....was the book-wall in the movie 'interstellar' lifted from this video???

  54. B.... T....

    Kate you must escape the tesseract! 30 years are passing every hour that's what a talking dalmatian woman told me! the talking dalmatian said her name was Anne Brand or something and to look out for tidal waves that come out from nowhere! also there is this dorky talking monolith from 2001 a Space Odyssey and i think Matt Damon just tried to kill me! the fate of the Interstellar Galaxy depends on you! don't let us down Kate!

  55. S.... S....

    She is a complete one off. Very very special

  56. C.... W....

    A song to carry us on its wings to heaven, when we finally slip from this mortal coil.

  57. K.... ....

    Kate Bush is absolute Great in this Performance!!..

  58. K.... ....

    Thats is my real life in GDR 1988!!..

  59. J.... J....

    I remember when this came out...I remember it on the radio at Christmas, still had my beautiful parents, reminds me of living at home with them ♥️"these moments given are a gift from time"...they certainly are x

  60. R.... H....

    The final part, the hills of time, is so moving. She dances with her deceased friends...

  61. B.... C....

    There's something so magical about Kate Bush. No matter how many times I've heard this over the years it still gives me chills. Her voice is so beautiful and she's mesmerising to watch. One amazing lady with one amazingly beautiful voice.

  62. B.... T....

    didn't this same thing happen to Matthew Mcconaughey at the end of Interstellar?

  63. C.... m....

    Fair play Kate all good. Not heard this 1 before. But all that spinning an half make me feel qweezie 😰🙃😉 xx

  64. h.... l....

    Man if this doesn’t pull the heart strings nothing will!

  65. b.... ....

    Bless you, Kate.

  66. j.... b....

    R.I.P Alan murphy. Kate, Go west, Level 42. + many more

  67. a.... n....

    I was getting dizzy

  68. M.... R....

    The word unique is tossed about when people discuss artists, this is that rare instance where the description applies, a genuine one of a kind

  69. L.... K....

    Kate, thank you for being there for us! Your music touches hearts and souls.

  70. l.... g....

    Kate Bush wonderfoul hello i am Brasil

  71. m.... f....

    Listening to this song was a true moment of pleasure.

  72. 7.... ....

    One of Kate's quiet classics. If it had been in a Broadway musical it would be regarded as a classic, but it is a 'minor' song from a niche artiste. A supreme emotional sonnet.

  73. F.... D....

    Les gens que l'on a aimés un ne les oublies jamais! :) <3 Magnifique Kate Bush forever <3 <3 <3

  74. L.... T....

    I can only think of 2 things in the world that are perfect. My daughter is one. This song is the other.

  75. P.... F....

    MAGICAL!

  76. F.... O....

    I think Tory Amos should do a version of this.

  77. H.... S....

    Sublime.

  78. M.... Q....

    Incredible musician...

  79. B.... 1....

    Timeless

  80. C.... S....

    Just wonderful.....

  81. A.... -....

    I could never even begin to tell you how much this songs means to me
    and I'll never not be able to listen
    to it without crying.
    It holds this feeling, worth a whole lifetime - so many memories...

  82. M.... H....

    The strings...wow.

  83. C.... D....

    Dear god... she's all women.

  84. W.... H....

    So Florence Welch, Björk, Lady Gaga and Sia all have the same mother...

  85. L.... P....

    💟💞😘

  86. K.... S....

    Heard this for the first time today...Gary Davies played it on radio 2...beautiful ♥️

    At this point, she was, no doubt, the most beautiful woman on earth.

  89. N.... V....

    she's a fairy

  90. J.... ....

    I was 13 days old when this album came out. Kate Bush is a timeless artist

  91. R.... A....

    One of the best ever..... so deep and touches places no other song can reach.... perfection.

  92. R.... S....

    Just incredible .. love you Kate ! x

  93. J.... C....

    BEauTiful BEinG.....

  94. k.... ....

    Confession. Forgive me for I have sinned. It is several months since my last Kate Bush binge.

  95. W.... C....

    😪😥😟😢😭

  96. b.... ....

    I'm reading some of the lovely preceding comments, age and masculinity are no barrier to feeling and loving Kate's voice.....as a 57 year old man, I can't quite quantify what she does to me, an inherent part of my strife torn youth perhaps, I find solace, a quiet and gentle satisfaction nowadays, thank you Kate Bush.
