  • Official music video for the single "Wuthering Heights" -- Version 1 by Kate Bush.
    Wuthering Heights was released as Kate's debut single in January 1978. It became a No.1 hit in the UK singles chart and remains Kate's biggest-selling single.
    Two music videos were created to accompany the single. In Version 1, Kate can be seen performing the song in a dark room filled with white mist while wearing a white dress -- this was the UK release. In Version 2 Kate dances in an outdoor environment while wearing a red dress -- this video was produced for the American release.
    The song appears on Kate's 1978 debut album, The Kick Inside, and was also re-recorded in 1986 for the greatest-hits album The Whole Story.
    "Wuthering Heights" came 32nd in Q magazine's Top 100 Singles of All Time, voted by readers.

      The obsession continues-so powerful it does not recognize death. Heathcliff and Cathy are inherently selfish and cruel to others because of their obsession with each other. They are monstrous towards each other because of the obsession. This song is brilliant because she focusses on Cathy's ghost banging on Heathcliff's window, the very much alive Heathcliff. She expects him to willingly pass from life to death for her. And she is right. Obsession, the song is so haunting because I think part of us wants to experience that kind of intensity in a relationship. So intense it defies death.

      No fuckin way! Your generation was the last generation where normal people had access to do extraordinary things. You could say hi to John Lennon on his way in the door, go to Clive Davis and hand him your demo tape. My mom actually went out to California and did the hippie thing. I'm 43 and she STILL will occasionally catch me totally off-guard- "oh yeah, that must have been in '66, yeah, cuz that was before I spent that summer on Charlie Manson's ranch" ...👀... "What??? Oh, you knew about that!" I be like whatever mom. Y'all generation was a trip!

    To me, the most beautiful thing about this is that there is not a single drop of cynicism or apparent shame about it.
    YES, she wrote a song about a classic gothic novel. YES, it is from the perspective of a dead character.
    YES, she is singing in this ghostly dramatic soprano. AND YES, she made a whole interpretative choreography.
    DEAL WITH IT.

      Sorry, I disagree. I'm not trying to troll when I say that Kate Bush is an absolute rarity that was from a time when musical artists were more concerned with musical content and the integrity of their material; not their music videos.
      Granted, Kate is a timeless beauty who's music has that everlasting, magical quality, She is nothing like the musical artists of today's generation. She's authentic, eccentric, and in a league of her own.
      And this is coming from a guitarist that grew up listening to punk / metal / rock n roll / blues.

      Kate was and still is unapologetic for her style, her music and all of who she is. She has inspired so many great musicians. Just watch Tori Amos and tell me she was not heavily influenced by Kate Bush. Kate is a true artist - an true original. To have made it in the music business being this different is nearly impossible. I love her. Such a brave, brave women. Having sad that, I like listening to the Pat Benatar version of this song better. Benatar hits notes on this song that are near impossible.

    for anyone confused on what this song is about (understandably, too): it’s based off the book ‘wuthering heights’ and tells the (odd) love story between two of the book’s main characters, Catherine and Heathcliff. it is told in the point of view of Catherine, who [*SPOILER*] had died and spent the rest of Heathcliff’s natural life haunting him.
    the lyrics “Heathcliff, it’s me, your Cathy, I’ve come home, I’m so cold” come from a scene in the book where another one of the characters (Lockwood) has a dream in which Cathy’s ghostly figure has returned back to the home from her grave and is begging to be let back in by Heathcliff.
    funnily enough, Heathcliff and Catherine were never an ‘item’; they were just two people who loved each other but were never officially together, even though they wanted to be.

    I studied Wuthering Heights for my degree. About 15 of us sat in a seminar, and every one of us said there was just something unsettling about it, yet none of us could put out finger on it. Our lecturer suggested that this was precisely why it is a work of genius...it's like nothing else.
    A century and a bit later, Kate Bush did this. She took a novel that defies categorisation, and made a song that encapsulates exactly the same 'otherness'. Genius.

    The song is so much eerier when you realise its context. The song is about Cathy's ghost returning to Heathcliff to take him away with her because she's so lonely "on the other side" (afterlife/purgatory/whatever). At the end of the novel when Heathcliff throws open the window and lays in bed and dies with a smile on his face, we're supposed to believe that Cathy's ghost has come through and he's let his soul go with her. Creepy.
    It's amazing how much lyrical depth this song has, especially considering Kate wrote it at the age of 18.

    As a kid as I was sitting in the car listening to this and my dad came back. He got in the car and I told him not to start the car. He looked at me like 'my car' but he realised I was enjoying the music. We sat there for a couple of minutes, didn't speak a word and then when it finished, he started up and went on his way. I thought I was in for a telling off but the old man was quiet and smiling. God bless dad. Miss you.

    Out on the Wiley, windy moors
    We'd roll and fall in green
    You had a temper like my jealousy
    Too hot, too greedy
    How could you leave me
    When I needed to possess you?
    I hated you, I loved you too
    Bad dreams in the night
    You told me I was going to lose the fight
    Leave behind my wuthering, wuthering
    Wuthering Heights
    Heathcliff, it's me, Cathy, I've come home
    I'm so cold, let me in your window
    Heathcliff, it's me, Cathy, I've come home
    I'm so cold, let me in your window
    Ooh, it gets dark, it gets lonely
    On the other side from you
    I pine a lot, I find the lot
    Falls through without you
    I'm coming back, love
    Cruel Heathcliff, my one dream
    My only master
    Too long I roamed in the night
    I'm coming back to his side to put it right
    I'm coming home to wuthering, wuthering
    Wuthering Heights
    Heathcliff, it's me, Cathy, I've come home
    I'm so cold, let me in your window
    Heathcliff, it's me, Cathy, I've come home
    I'm so cold, let me in your window
    Ooh, let me have it
    Let me grab your soul away
    Ooh, let me have it
    Let me grab your soul away
    You know it's me, Cathy
    Heathcliff, it's me, Cathy, I've come home
    I'm so cold, let me in your window
    Heathcliff, it's me, Cathy, I've come home
    I'm so cold, let me in your window
    Heathcliff, it's me, Cathy, I've come home
    I'm so cold

Brilliant music, brilliant choreography, brilliantly sang. Kate really outdid herself with this one by challenging several norms releasing this in the 70s (1979) at the age of only 19.

      You have to record vocals like this in one take. It never ever works to piece together different takes, no matter what anyone will tell you. You have maybe a couple of full takes and if no joy, pack up and come back another day. Naturally anyone that lacks the incredible talent of Kate Bush, will struggle to do these kind of one take sessions. Technology has unfortunately given talentless people the chance to get involved in music, which degrades the scene and art of music making as a whole. So we desperately need new artists like the Kate Bush of this world to come forward and succeed.
