"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 guitarist Alan Murphy, film director Michael Powell, dancer Gary Hurst, lighting engineer Bill Duffield and others. Composer and musician Michael Kamen arranged and conducted the orchestra, expanding on Bush's original piano accompaniment. Bush wrote the chorus "to those we love, to those who will survive" for her mother, who was sick at the time of recording. She died a short time later. The Director's Cut version does not feature the chorus. 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", which has yet to be released on CD, and a third track entitled "Home for Christmas", which was also released on the US "Rubberband Girl", CD single. This was the first and only Kate Bush single (that received a physical release) not to be issued on 7" vinyl in the UK. ==Track listings== ;12" ;CD ;Collectors CD Box Set (includes four colour prints) ;Cassette 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Moments of Pleasure」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
