Overview Edit

"Moments of Pleasure" is a song written and recorded by musician Kate Bush. It was released as the second single from Bush's album The Red Shoes in 1993.

"Moments of Pleasure" was released 15 November 1993 and its highest charting position in the UK was number 26. In this song Bush remembers friends and family who have died, including her mother, guitarist Alan Murphy, film director Michael Powell, dancer Gary Hurst, lighting engineer Bill Duffield and others.

The second track, "Show a Little Devotion", is one of Bush's more elusive songs. It only appears on a small handful of CD singles that were released just prior to Christmas 1993. The version of "December Will Be Magic Again" that appears on this release is slightly different from all the other mixes previously released. It is basically the same as the original single mix, but it's brighter, and the percussion instruments are different. The CD release also includes "Experiment IV" which was released in 1986. The 12" and cassette releases contain an instrumental version of "Moments of Pleasure" and a third track entitled "Home for Christmas", both of which have yet to be released on CD. This was the first, and to date only, Kate Bush single not to be released on 7" vinyl in the UK.
