From the official Facebook page:
Radio 2 will be the first radio station in the world to play the new Kate Bush single, “Deeper Understanding” on Monday 4 April 2011. The song will be played within the Ken Bruce show at approximately 11.10am. Ken Bruce told us ‘The listeners to my show are very vocal when it comes to their musical loves, so I know that having the world exclusive of Kate’s new single will surpass their extremely high standards. I can’t wait to hear it myself.’
The song will be the Record of the Week on Radio2 and will be played each day on the Ken Bruce’s Show and Alex Lester’s programme. Jeff Smith, Head of Music, Radio 2 and 6 Music – ”Kate’s music is as influential today as it was when it was first released, so I’m delighted to have this world exclusive.
To celebrate the news from Radio 2… We bring you love and Deeper Understanding…

Hm … not that enthusiastic about it yet but must listen to the whole thing. I’m curious about if she also has updated the lyrics for including something about social networks like Facebook.

You got that backwards. Social networks were just fulfilling what she foresaw.

Hello everyone !
I’m very excited (like a lot of you I think) since I heard about new material from Kate, few weeks ago. Though I’m agree with Mike, and I’m not enthousiast about this short extract (which maybe seem a bit too close from the original orchestration), I don’t want to make a judgement now. I’m too impatient :p. I can’t wait to be on the 5th of april ! Happy to hear and to see Kate again (she looks great !)
Thanks a lot to this excellent site who share all this informations with us.
Kisses from France 😉

I wish I could take a day off for that, but I have just reached the limit for Kate-days… 😉
Spring is now even MORE sunny!
