      Speak for yourself. She may not have been top 40, but plenty of Gen X’ers loved her and then “The Red Shoes” cake out, it was in every music store. This video was on rotation on MTV. I can’t remember what they called it, but they had a few hours of “alternative/grunge” music and Kate Bush was always on, as was Bjork.

      @@davidgollop2807 Not true. She made at least 3 trips to the U.S. and visited Canada to promote Hounds of Love. She appeared on Saturday Night Live in 1978 and was back in America and did record promotions for H.O.L at Tower Records in New York City on two occasions. She also flew back and met with record company officials in California in the late 80's. She did not do well commercially in the U.S. because she never toured and her record company failed to properly promote her and market her albums. Plans were in the works early in her career to tour the States, but the record company (EMI) pulled the plug because they thought it was too costly. And by that time, Kate preferred to be a studio artist and was not that interested in live performance after her European Tour of Life.

    This is the first comment on this video in 3 years, so I know no one will see it. However, Kate Bush is a Goddess who should be worshipped! As a singer, writer, producer, dancer, etc., name someone in the last 30 years that was as innovative and creative as Kate. Beyonce? No disrespect to her, but Kate Bush did all it without AutoTune.

    • @jimwilliams3816
      @jimwilliams3816 6 месяцев назад +2

      It was a mixed bag in the US. The Love and Anger video got pretty heavy rotation, and made me into what, at that time, was a late Kate adopter. But the local record shop had all her albums on CD, and I bought almost all of them in short order. Kate was the first artist I bought entirely on CD I think.
      In an era when viral blowouts are the expectation, it’s easy to look back and think her exposure in the US constituted obscurity. But remember the twin dynamic of the pre-internet era: massive exposure was harder, due to a handful of gatekeepers, but a number of small radio DJs still had some leeway in their programming choices. And albums were sold not streamed; I don’t think the royalties were princely, but they existed more than they do in a post-Napster world. Kate’s era was one where massive overnight fame was rarer, but musicians had a shot at living off moderate success.

Had she wanted to, she likely would be a top level performer in those arenas. But my ears and eyes absolutely appreciate that she stuck with music/dance. Such complexity and depth of insight, she must be amazing internally. C. Jung would have loved her I imagine.

    Kate Bush, Prince and Tori Amos taught me that music could give you life.
    NIN, Faith No More and NWA taught me you didn't need to feel bad about being you.
    80s/90s music had purpose.
    Current media makes profit. Salute the era that will no longer be allowed.

My eyes paused at the album cover. I had never heard of her, but solely decided to take a chance and buy it, because I loved the cover, and I am forever grateful that I did.her music library is excellent and I have everything she's released.thank you friends for taking me to buy random records and thank you Kate bush forever being in my heart, mind and soul for all these years.

    I've always thought this song is about her wishing she was flexible like a rubberband so that when bad things happen, she has the ability to bounce back quickly and not break. "See those trees, bend in the wind, I feel they've got a lot more sense than me". Trees don't try and stop the wind from hitting them, they bend in the wind because the wind's only there temporarily and then it's gone. It's about being adaptable and still managing to survive

      It fascinates me so much, how her accessible pop music sensibility can integrate meticulous artistry and composition without either aspect being compromised. Her works are pop songs with mass appeal and serious musical experiments at the same time. She is still the best example of art-pop around, I think.
