“Moments of Pleasure” is the fourth track and second single from Kate Bush’s The Red Shoes. Perhaps her second most iconic piano ballad, it conveys Bush remembering various people who have impacted her life that have since passed on, most notably her mother Hannah who was sick at the time of recording.

The song also appears in the 1993 film The Line, The Cross and the Curve which depicts Bush’s character falling to the ground through snow. This section of film serves as the official music video.

It was the sole Bush single phyiscally released to not receive a 7" in the UK. Additionally, there weren’t any alternative mixes – other than the instrumental released on cassette and 12" – until it was later completely rerecorded and released again for Bush’s 2011 album, Director’s Cut.
