    Other artists have covered Kate's music before - but they didn't own their version. They were just going through the motions of singing a song they didn't really feel. Ms Myers OWNED this. She put her heart and soul into using her vision to make this ROCK! Also have to thank her for helping me rediscover Kate. After 1985 she fell off the map - for me - for 34 years.

I did a double take and realized Megs version was not Kates. Im not trying to compare either versions they are both good. However, Megs voice has something magical and when I first hear her cover 😍 I was in love! She revamped and gave this song character and life. And to he honest, I thought it was her song originally I had no clue. Only because discovered this song playing on our local radio station I fell in love with Megs music. She is very talented 👏 😍 ❤

      I think everyone is forgetting Placebo’s cover of this song which is the version that received the most attention and brought the song to fame, at least for those of us who grew up in the second half of the 90’s to the early 2000’s.
      Placebo’s version has a melancholic darkness to it that has never lost its shine over the years. This version, whilst lighter, has a different style to it that remixes both the lighter aspects of Kate Bush’s original and some touches of the darker aspects of Placebo’s version, creating this kind of 80’s synth girl rock pop aesthetic that drives this version.
      I think Placebo and Meg Kelly’s versions are the best. Kate Bush’s original hasn’t aged as well as some might think whilst other covers have either not tried anything new or sound terrible. Placebo is good for the entire modern reworking of the song for a new generation whilst this version carries the spirit of Kate Bush with it but updates it considerably.
      Personally, I’d take this version as the Kate Bush original and Placebo’s as the cover, if you convert them through a modern mindset.

      A comment like this is only made by someone that has been hurt, and hurt others too.
      Shame and pain, love and forgiveness, suffering and joy… this version of this song brings those feelings to that type of soul. Hope you’re doing well now, bro. I have a feeling you are.

You have done an incredible job staying true to Kate's original and yet you made your cover stand out with your unbelievable energy, enthusiasm, creativity, and passion!
