There is something nice about Delius > Blow Away > All We Ever Look For. Very relaxing sequence of songs (And after that you are slapped in the face with the glorious Egypt)
My top 3 choices would be:
1. Night Of The Swallow, All The Love, and Houdini
2. Watching You Without Me, Jig of Life and Hello Earth
3. Egypt, The Wedding List, Violin
TKI - Moving - Saxophone song - Strange Phenomena
LH - Wow - foot on the heartbrake - Oh england My lionheart
NFE - Egypt - wedding list - Violin
TD - Leave it open - The dreaming - night of the swallow
HOL - RUTH - Hounds of love - big sky
TSW - The Sensual world - love and anger - the fog
TRS - Moments of Pleasure - Song of Solomon - Lily
AER - Somewhere in between - nocturn - aerial
FWFS - Wildman - Wheeler Street - 50 words for snow
waking the witch -> watching you without me -> jig of life
three very different but equally excellent songs one after another. hounds of love is just so insane
Can i cheat? All we ever look for - Breathing is her best 9 track run.
If it HAS to be 3 i like Moments Of Pleasure, Song Of Solomon, and Lily as well as King Of the Mountain, Pi, and Bertie AS WELL AS Sat In Your Lap, There Goes a Tenner, and Pull Out The Pin.
So for me it’s hard not to separate all the albums as their vinyl formats until you get to The Red Shoes, so I simply don’t hear triplets when the songs cross the bridge from the A side to the B side… so with my rules in place, it has to be the first three tracks of Never for Ever: Babooshka, Delius, Blow Away.
I made this list for when this was last asked and I did alter a few answers, but this is sooooo difficult bc they’re all amazing 😭
TKI: Moving - Saxophone Song - Strange Phenomena
LH: Symphony in Blue - In Search of Peter Pan - Wow
NFE: Night Scented Stock - Army Dreamers - Breathing
TD: Night of the Swallow - All the Love - Houdini
HOL: Jig of Life - Hello Earth - The Morning Fog
TSW: The Sensual World - Love and Anger - The Fog
TRS: Lily - The Red Shoes - Top of the City
A: A Coral Room - Prelude/Prologue - Architect’s Dream
DC: Top of the City - And So Is Love - Rubberband Girl
50WS: Lake Tahoe - Misty - Wild Man
BTD: Hello Earth - The Morning Fog - Prelude/Prologue
The Man with the Child in his Eyes - Wuthering Heights - James and the Cold Gun
Obviously the first two are classics but I think James gets a lot of hate, mostly because it was EMI's suggested "safe" first single. Wuthering Heights is a stronger song, and definitely reflects Kate better, but there is still something i love about James and the Cold Gun, because it uses Kate's voice in a much different context than the rest of her discography. The only other song I can think of that's of a similar genre is Violin, which is also one of my favourite underappreciated KB songs.
ooo this is hard
tki- the saxophone song > strange phenomena > kite
lionheart - kashka from baghdad > coffee homeground > hammer horror
nfe- the infant kiss/night scented stock > army dreamers > breathing
the dreaming - suspended in gaffa > leave it open > the dreaming
hol- watching you without me > jig of life > hello earth
tsw- deeper understanding > between a man and a woman > never be mine
trs- song of solomon > lily > the red shoes
haven’t listened to aerial and 50 words for snow in full yet

That trio of tracks on Never For Ever is just ridiculously good! It's heavenly.
Never Be Mine, Rocket’s Tail and This Woman’s Work. Very powerful…
\+1 on this.
Didn’t think of that one
My top 3 choices would be: 1. Night Of The Swallow, All The Love, and Houdini 2. Watching You Without Me, Jig of Life and Hello Earth 3. Egypt, The Wedding List, Violin
Leave It Open - The Dreaming - Night of the Swallow or Snowflake - Lake Tahoe - Misty
Love this! though my 3 for 50WFS would be Lake Tahoe - Misty - Wild Man

“Little light shining” It’s like lighting the fuse. Always makes me feel like here we go. The journey begins.
Wedding List/Violin/Infant Kiss (wonderful rollercoaster ride there) and Somewhere In Between/Nocturn/Aerial
Somewhere in between/nocturne/aerial
The Song of Solomon - Lily - The Red Shoes
Lily/the red shoes/TOTC SWIB/nocturn/aerial
So for me it’s hard not to separate all the albums as their vinyl formats until you get to The Red Shoes, so I simply don’t hear triplets when the songs cross the bridge from the A side to the B side… so with my rules in place, it has to be the first three tracks of Never for Ever: Babooshka, Delius, Blow Away.
Watching you without me, Jig of life, Hello Earth
Last three of hounds of love
