Belgian-Australian singer-songwriter Gotye has revealed that he wants to work with art rock star Kate Bush though he admitted he wasn't sure whether a collaboration between them would work.
The 31 year-old indie rocker is planning what to do next with his career, after achieving remarkable success with his third studio album 'Making Mirrors' and sees some collaborative work as the way forward. And, it appears Kate Bush is at the top of his hitlist, and would love to get a track done with her even though he'd be rather strarstruck if they met to work together.
Asked by NME exactly who he'd like to with, the star confessed: I go to say idols of mine like Kate Bush, she's amazing. But then again, when you'd idolised someone like that over the years, it's hard to meet them and treat them like a regular person.
He went on to talk about his newly-amassed fortune, which has come off the back of his aforementioned third album, and how he's handling having more cash than he's ever had before.
Even with a bigger balance in my bank account, it's not like I'm planning to splurge on property or anything. It'll be more like if I want to work with someone and they happen to live in Canada, I can fly over there and actually spend a few weeks there, which is quite luxurious to me.
He continued: I'm not thinking about moving house, I might build a proper studio though. I used a barn last time and I've dismantled that set-up. People have asked me before what I'm going to splurge on and if it's anything it'll be something musical like an organ or something for my girlfriend.
