      Give me your - hand

    You chose a brilliant Kate Bush song to react to. The emotional impact of This Woman’s Work is so powerful. Kate is a masterful storyteller and visual artist as well as singer songwriter and producer. It makes me so happy being a life long fan that new generations of people are discovering Kates music. Thank you Derek ♥️

    One of the most beautiful songs ever written, always makes me cry. Kate sounds like an angel. She's out of this world. She did a new version of this in 2011, worth checking out too! It's very different.
    You were so mesmerized! Dereck you need to react to Kate more often, she should definitely be your next deep dive like you did with ABBA!

    One of her strongest compositions. Kate is a storyteller like no one. Her best gift: she leaves plenty of room to draw ones own conclusion. Another great one like this but also very personal to Kate herself is A Coral Room. Kate remeniscing her late mother.
    This Woman's Work made an impressive appearance in one of the most disturbing scenes on The Handmaids Tale: ruclips.net/video/u47-Dz83Oq4/видео.html

    I've been in love with Kate Bush since she first emerged in 1977/78. In Britain we had the punk explosion.....and we had Kate Bush. I liked punk....I love Kate. Even John Lydon thinks Kate is an angel sent down to us. I'm now so so envious of all you young people, especially in the USA, who are just discovering Kate for the first time. A world of untold joy awaits you. I almost wish I could start all over again when I see the reactions her music elicits. I'm not a religious person, (don't believe in heaven and hell even though I was brought up strict Scottish Presbyterian).....but as you are now all finding out, there are ANGELS. .

    This ladies and gentlemen, is Kate Bush. Nearly nobody covers her music cause they usually ruin it completely and she is an incredibly unique composer, singer and producer. And she never gave a shit about what others wanted or thought would sell. Full artistic control. She tells stories like no other, no wonder Dereck is speechless. And no, she dies.

    She died! This is from Wikipedia:
    The music video for "This Woman's Work", which was directed by Bush herself, starts with Bush, spotlighted in an otherwise black room, playing the introductory notes on a piano. In the next scene, a distraught man (played by Tim McInnerny) is pacing in the waiting room of a hospital. It is then revealed through flashbacks that his wife (played by Bush) has collapsed while they were having dinner. The story blurs into a continuous scene where he carries her to the car, a desperate race to the hospital, and his wife being wheeled away on a stretcher as he races in behind her. While waiting, the husband is wracked with fear and imagines his wife in happier times, kissing him in the rain, and even imagines the nurse coming to tell him she has died. The nurse then pulls him out of his reverie, as she reassuringly puts her hand on his shoulder and tells him about his wife's situation, though we cannot hear what she is saying. The final scene of the video returns to Bush as she silently covers the piano keyboard.

    • @j.k.1963

  • @lewismaddox4132
    @lewismaddox4132 2 года назад +1

    I suggest you listen one more time and pay attention to Kate's amazing agonized screaming in the background during the closing stanza which so perfectly conveys the agonizing moments of crisis and uncertainty as the wife and mother's life as well as the unborn child hang in the balance. It is so frightening and such a helpless feeling from the man's point of view. My wife and her child were a week overdue and the doctors decided to induce labor. Two days of frustration until they told me she was heading toward pre-eclampsia, shallow breathing, weakened pulse and heart rate, upside down iron in her blood, the whole thing. Two days of strife only to be forced to have a c-section in the end. My wife is Korean and she couldn't pass our child cause he had a big European melon like his Dad. I'm telling you this from my perspective which pales to the agony and terror that she went through. But, of course, that's how Kate produced this song, from the man's perspective. She's an absolutely uncanny empath.
    The look of stunned and drained oblivion on the face of the man at the end is something I relate to very strongly. He was going through, "All the things I should have said that I never said. All the things I should have done that I never did." To realize it wasn't too late, that he still had the chance to have those moments back must have been overwhelming, draining. A whole new mind-set.

I played it for both of my sons, who ALSO thought it was the most beautiful song they'd ever heard. Finally having seen the video for the first time about a year ago, I think, frankly, that I preferred watching the beautiful figure skating performance with this song as the backdrop.

    Whenever I hear this song, and I’ve listened to it for decades, it always brings me to tears. It’s so brilliantly crafted.

Ever since my boyfriend was murdered when I was in my early 20s I’ve made a point of being sure that those I come in contact with know how much they mean to me.

    I feel like I've had this thought on more than one occasion.
    A lot of guys read this song exactly as it it was written. Fucking painful. The pull of love and pleasure, pain and togetherness. Whichever wins causes a casualty and a bad one at that.
    I wish I could decide which narrative was the best to follow.

    might want to look at Tim Mckinnory's expression again (the Actor) as in the song she's dies.

      @jonsouth1545 If Kate follows the narrative of the movie she originally wrote the song for, Tim's is an expression of relief, as a result of the reassurance expressed by the nurse.

      @avelonavelon1611 A few KB songs were like that. Went to #25 in the U.K. The album went to #2.

      Stephen Bateman Don't know where you get that from. In the movie Kate wrote the song specifically for, no one dies. The nurse in the video is smiling as she delivers the good news.

      @@warrenbridges1891 I was always under the impression the song had a dark undertone and when Kate closes the piano it indicates her passing. I am very pleased to be wrong. Thanks you for your information. Seriously thank you .

      @@stephanbateman5410 I suppose that (the unresolved music) added to the dramatic tension in the movie. They usually tease you before eventually revealing the happy ending. Closing the piano does look symbolic though.
