Reviews4 stars out of 5 -- "Bush's husky vocals rise through an ominous piano fog, generating a silvery chill...", "It's all gorgeous -- even the 13-minute 'Misty' -- but SNOW peaks with a stunning Elton John duet on which the pair play time-traveling lovers." -- Grade: A-, "The mood is subdued, the backing spare, meditative....The album's most remarkable moments are its quietest.", "Her voice remains a thing of wonder, alternating between banshee-like swoops and hushed, sultry intimacy.", Ranked #40 in Uncut's '50 Best Albums of 2011'- "An Extraordinary Suite of Winter Songs.", "A languorous, self-produced vamp that might even qualify as a 'song cycle'....It's impossible not to get lost in the drift.", "'Cloud-like' is a fairly fitting adjective for 50 WORDS FOR SNOW which blooms into your headphones with "Snowflake," an immersion of pillowy piano ambience, synth pulses and guitars that flicker like a dying flame."
Additional InformationKate Bush's tenth album is an ambitious and mysterious -- yet accessible -- collection of songs about winter.

    Just sit or lie down, relax, close your eyes and listen.

    I've only listened to the first four tracks, quite slow, but a must for KB fans. 👍👌. Glad I bought it.

    Oh Dear Kate - Try to liven up a bit - what a very depressing album

    Remember 'under ice' from Hounds of Love ? Basically this is a whole album of similar depressing songs - don't mind one sond like that but please Kate Christmas is supposed to be a happy time !!!

  • A Masterpiece

    It took me 6 six years to buy this album as I didn't think I would like it. A big mistake! This is the most original piece of music I think I have ever heard. Like all Kate Bush's albums it must be listened to, being background music does not work. I don't say it lightly but this could be one of my favourite albums of all time.

  • Good on a cold day (and a hot ass well)....

    Im really into; Bod Dylan, Neil Young, Lou Reed, Cohen and so on. But then I heard 50 words of snow and its so beautiful, like she is. I hope she gets stolen, like Cohen, so she has to do some LIVE concerts, but hey, whats the chance ;)
