"Sat in Your Lap" (1981) is a song by English art rock musician Kate Bush.

[4] Critic Simon Reynolds called it "an avant-pop stampede of pounding percussion and deranged shrieks, a sister-song to Public Image Ltd's 'Flowers of Romance'.

[6] In his biography on Kate Bush, Graeme Thomson claims that the title of the song suggests the possibility of experiencing enlightenment through sex.

[7] Kate Bush stated in an early interview that the single version was remixed slightly for inclusion on The Dreaming, with some parts re-recorded for the album.

[citation needed] The demo version of "Sat in Your Lap" contains an extra verse at the start, which was later cut.
