I love the way time can sometimes fold back on itself to catapult a past gem into the present. Take Kate Bush, for instance; not only has the resurgence of her 1985 hit ‘Running Up That Hill’ introduced the singer to a new generation, but it has also returned her to an older one.

I listened to her speaking to Emma Barnett on Women’s Hour on BBC Radio 4 and thanked the collection of strange forces that prompted her to do her first interview in six years.
