"And So Is Love" is a song written and recorded by musician Kate Bush. It was the fifth and final single release from the album The Red Shoes.
Released on 7 November 1994, the single climbed to number 26 in the UK Singles Chart.[1]
"Eat the Music" also appears on the UK "And So Is Love" CD single, in the same version as on the 12-inch single featured on the U.S. CD and cassingle. Additionally, there is a third version, the so-called "Extended Mix" which appears on the European and Australian singles, and which is in reality 12 seconds shorter than the LP mix.
Guest star Eric Clapton plays guitar on the track.[2] The Hammond organ is by Gary Brooker of Procol Harum.[1]
Bush recorded a new version of the song, with altered lyrics, for her album Director's Cut.
Critical reception
Upon its release as a single, Andrew Hirst of the Huddersfield Daily Examiner wrote, "Faintly foreboding, eerily ethereal, always arty. That's our Kate."[3]
