Back in 93, Kate Bush collaborated with Prince on Why Should I love You, a track from The Red Shoes album which seems to be about a broken-hearted woman seeking spiritual comfort, although maybe more like Madonna than Mother Teresa. Interviews from the time suggest that Prince dominated the track and Kate had to reign him in for balance.
We may never hear the demo he sent to Kate, so I've tried to reimagine how it would have sounded. Using many iconic Prince motifs, I've sampled The Purple One to raise his profile to the fore. Aside from percussion, guitars and backing vocals, I've used a line from Mountains which seems to chime with the sentiment of Kate's original demo and album track.
I'm hugely blessed to have additional vocals from Mandy Watson of Cloudbusting (see if you can spot them) thank you so much! The whole track was made over the last 6 months using Apple GarageBand.
For the video I used still images of each singer and animated them, either by hand using Moho Pro Animation Software or various AI apps and online services. In all cases I had to use my own mouth, lip-syncing to guide the software. All the animation is my own work, and I designed the Prince/Kate Bush symbol. I also borrowed footage from Light Moves at Washington National Cathedral by Colin Winterbottom.
I think the star of the show is Lenny Henry, whose gorgeous voice was used to cover the lines that Prince ignored. I've also brought him to the fore, where he deserves to be. He looks a bit grumpy, but you would if Kate was more interested in Prince.
Dedicated to Neil Scott for his dedication and triumphs.
In loving memory of Eva Georgieva of Trio Bulgarka and Prince Rogers Nelson.

This sould be a single. Love Kate Bush, Love Prince.
Thanks, I'm still waiting for Kate to ring me, hah ha!
Thank You for this! Makes me so emotional hearing all the Iconic Prince sounds I grew up with!!
Glad you appreciate the iconic motifs! I spent a lot of time searching for them and extracting them. I really wanted him to shine.
Huge Kate Bush Fan Here 👋….I absolutely love this!!!
Thanks! It's getting some very good reactions from both Kate and Prince fans. I tried to make it as authentic as possible.
This is Prince with Kate in the background. Interesting to hear, but I do prefer Kate's version and am proud of her for knowing what she wants with her own music and of her then being in total control of her own work. Don't get me wrong, I love Prince also! I appreciate the work you put into this; it's a remix of the song.
The original had Prince relegated to the background, so I've changed it back to more of a balanced duet. And Kate has an awful lot of vocals throughout for her to be in the background. I even added extra lines from the old demo of her original song. Give it another spin!
I watch this over and over❤
The reversal of the Trio Bulgarka part at 3:48! Multiple eargasms and I can't quit repeating that bit.
Thank you! I had a bit of fun there. Breaking up the flow of the song keeps it fresh.
Simply gorgeous! An awesome piece of work.
Great to have your feedback - much appreciated!
Fabulous 👍🏻❤️👍🏻❤️
Thank you!
I really enjoy this version as a big fan of Kate . I am just discovering Prince a little later in life! Thank you for putting so much love and effort into all of this!
You're welcome! I'm so glad you appreciate it - makes all my hard work worth while.
Well done!
Thank you so much!
I am going to share this until it gets the recognition it deserves 👏 Love it ❤❤❤
Thank you so much! I really appreciate it.
Love this track
Thank you so much! Glad you enjoyed it.
Because my loyalty is like the milky way, a universe of possibilities that never ends, my heart is like the sunshine that no darkness can extinguish without being exposed and burned in the light, my emotions are like seasons, summer always returns, I exisist forever in love and memory, all my lovers are immortal as ami in our heads and hearts. To my beloved🦋
2 emotional Voices meets there💖
3 emotional voices + The Trio Bulgarka! Heavenly.
Brilliant
Thank you Mark!
Great job! It's quite interesting and funky!
Thanks! I always thought the original needs some funk!
Great work buddy. would love to see and hear more. very creative.
Thanks! I really appreciate that. My other remixes are on my channel but there is only one other Kate Bush remix. I'm very tempted to do more Prince but it takes so long!
@@DeviousCorporation having recorded a bit myself I completely get that. Painstaking
So beautiful and fabulous ❤💋💜
Thank you so much! All credit to Kate Bush and Prince, of course!
Love this remix ❤️❤️❤️
It's wonderful to hear what might have been a great collaboration of these two icons. I was transfixed watching the beatiful video so I played it again not looking at the screen & it was even better. It feels like waking up after a good nights sleep with just the memory of a very nice & cosy dream that's still in your head. Props to Lenny Henry for joining in too. Brilliant mix & thankyou very much for this jem.
That’s good to hear! Glad you enjoyed it. And thanks for taking the time to write such a good review.
Wow!! I was a bit confused at first but then I got it. Great work!! (feedback from a Kate Bush fan)
Yes I know what you mean, but this is just an amateur imagining. Glad you like it!
Bet Kate Bush appreciate it very much x
It would make my day if I knew she'd seen it!
Love love this song new for me this April 2022
Keep Bustin
Holy Holy Holy 4who is 2come
Beautiful but some of the animation is a wee weird (mouths moving 😳)
I'm only an amateur, messing around. But you're right - some of it is clunky.
This is pretty cool.
Thank you!
Loved it ❤ Lenny is faB too 🤗😘
Thank you! Lenny has a wonderful voice - he should have done more.
this is absolutely amazing. kb and p fanatic... its as if an ai made this specifically for me
Thank you! I used all sorts of AI to isolate vocals and animate Lenny and Prince, but apart from that the concept and execution is all me. And GarageBand, of course.
@@DeviousCorporation awesome man!.. it's really wonderful and fresh work!
Dude I came across this while just surfing RUclips and I was blown away by how awesome it sounds. Any chance for other Kate Bush remixes?
Thank you! I did an Ibiza-sunrise style remix of An Architect’s Dream a few years ago ruclips.net/video/B1JpV0LVHFs/видео.html
Just wondering if you had any plans to maybe do some prince remixes? Now THAT would be cool.
@@EBSLovesGaming I sampled so many Prince tracks that I learnt that Prince’s style really does lend itself to remixing. I’d love to do another one, particularly Mountains, but it’s a long way off. Not enough hours in the day!
@@DeviousCorporation yeah Mountains is one of my favorite songs.
@@EBSLovesGaming mine too! I love the way it builds. It’s got a buzz of adrenaline in it.
Interesting
Prince eri un genio, perchè sei morto così presto, perchè.
Yes, a musical genius and a terrible loss.
Drugs
Haha. This is mad. Not sure about the video but the remix is beautiful and true to the original! Love it
Thanks! The video was originally going to be a still image, but I went off to explore deep fakes and animation. It is kind of crazy. I’m only an amateur. But I’m proud of the remix and I really appreciate your comment.
Great vidéo
@@aleflem-jx5kz Thanks! Its better than a static image, isn't it!
Love is. Should Could Would hypothetically nonexistent
It’s a very definite chemical state and a form of mental and physical mapping if you want to get scientific.
These pictures are from sensual world, but this song is from red shoes... On top of the other 3000+ mistakes..
This is a fan mix and a fan video. I made them. If I want to paint Prince purple I will. But thanks for your input.
I loved this till that unfunny so called comedian Lenny Henry appeared.
He’s the singer from the original song and close friend of Kate’s. He was brought in to sing the parts that Prince ignored. You might not like his humour, but he has an incredible voice.
Shameful
Really? And why’s that then?
Uhhh... NO! NO! NO! AND NOO! ... AND.. U... NO -IT! TOO!! TTTSK TSK! SHAME ON U!! this is ridiculous .. a disgrace.. and. Preposterous.!! How dare u. The only thing it is, is symbolic, slightly, and not the k in the symbol, at all. The fact that she resembles, me, with this short hair. Is what gives it proper reference to original identification where it came from. Anyways... WHATEVER WHATEVER!!!!
Word salad! I wish I knew what you meant by your comment, but thanks for taking the time to write.
Brilliant
Thanks!
