| | The Sensual World Lyrics | |
| | What it's about: Molly Bloom steps out of the black and white, two dimensional pages of James Joyce's Ulysses into the real world, and is immediately struck by the sensuality of it all. | |

| | The Sensual World (Instrumental) running time: 3:56 | |
| | Walk Straight Down The Middle Lyrics | |
| | What it's about: Trying to remain balanced and centered in our lives, instead of bouncing from one extreme to the other. | |
| | Running time: 3:48 | |
| | Etc: The Sensual World marked Kate's return from her second 3 year hiatus. Not counting collaborative efforts (and a couple songs written specifically for movie soundtracks), this was her first UK release in 35 months! | |
| | Etc2: This is a truly unique Kate release -- the A-side is double-grooved! Depending on where the needle drops, you'll hear either the regular or instrumental version of The Sensual World. (I thought it would become really rare when I acquired it back in 1989, but all UK stock copies were issued this way as well...) | |
| | Etc3: The tracks on the B-side of this release are in reverse order. Walk Straight Down The Middle is listed second, but it plays first! The error only appears on the white label promos; it was corrected on the commercial release. |
