I actually think Prince & Kate Bush have commonalities -- they were born one month apart in 1958 and were both child prodigies. Both introverts (Prince was shy like Kate), they both were wildly creative with clear visions and forged their own path come hell or highwater. Kate famously insisted her record company release Wuthering Heights as the first single, Prince famously told his record company that he was producing, writing and playing all the instruments on his first record. First albums released 1978. Kate & Prince incorporated dance and theatre into their stage shows, both were beautiful & petite with huge expressive eyes. Both were attached to their homeland (Kate: south England, Prince: Minneapolis area). Yes, their styles were different-- but it was born out of place - Kate's Englishness vs Prince's funky Minneapolis roots. Both genius and my favorite artists.
Plus I think they both have SCORPIO as their Rising signs (introverted demeanor) yet Prince was a GEMINI Sun with PISCES Moon whereas Kate is a LEO Sun with Aquarius Moon.
@@princebootlegchannel Quite true and both Prince and Kate Bush were explorers of their own imaginations! Love the article you included with the song too.
I remember hearing this song for the first time and listening to the chorus thinking "oh prince would have been great in this". Well now I feel quite silly, lol.
I love how Prince was too mercurial to capture and describe in a sentence.He did so much and was unashamed to go speeding through where others would have preferred a measured and analytical pacing. Kate Bush is a favourite of mine too but it's easier to pinpoint her best work for me. And it would be around the time Prince was doing Batman.I remember that it was a great time to be 19 !
Here cause I read about this collabloration. Now that I've heard it Prince's involvement is unmistakable and undeniable. So happy these two legends worked together and formed a tight friendship.
I love the song and have only learned tonight of Prince's involvement and listening to it now, it's so obvious. Big fan of Kate's and Prince. Great collaboration.
I have always liked the track. Apparently Kate Bush sent it to Prince and he broke it down into pieces and reassembled it, with his contributions, into something totally different. Kate Bush and her engineer had to break it apart again and reassemble to get this. Thanks for posting as always. Isn't Lenny Henry on vocals here as well?
It shows, it's a bit of a mess but to be fair to Prince the original demo had about three completely different feels going on and needed sorting out. Sounds like Kate and her producer still couldn't make their minds up even after Prince streamlined it.
This is one of my all time fav songs. There is so much happening and it's saying so much but with such finesse that in less capable hands it would have been a mess. I love that it sounds like Kate Bush and Prince made a song and you know it from the minute it plays. It's so funky and wistful and you can almost hear all the intricacies of their process and their whole relationship with each other both musically and personally. It's fascinating.
I know what you mean about a young Kate😍 Haven’t heard this before - put it on the same level as ‘Jughead’ and ‘Arms of Orion’ (I don’t like it😉). Certainly not as good a collaboration as the one between Kate and Peter Gabriel - ‘Don’t Give Up’. Thanks for educating me😂🤣
@@jeffs9300 I am very pleased that you find it funny and not offensive. Not all of Prince’s stuff was good - the above comment contains three examples😉).
Society as it stands today as phocked up as it is in 2021 would crave this imo.... The Kate "Camille Scarlet P Experiment "worked imo..Kate took it to another place all together.. but I do understand peeps begging to differ.. all good:)
It was a long shot from the start bcz the 2 artists needed to be together, at least in the gestation process - and neither of them work that way. She was probably looking for 1986 Prince (Linn Drums/ minimalistic atmospheric production) and instead she got 1990 Prince (Partyman!) - still tho, great track nonetheless
coup de foudre - A sudden unforeseen event or instantaneous and overwhelming passion, such as love at first sight; it is French, literally, "stroke of lightning."
I prefer the Demo with Kate Bush singing alone. Yes, she has sang with a few different Music Stars in the past. This, with Prince, (I love Princes Music.) Is so unlike the way Kate Sings. She sounds Great I cannot argue with that, the Tempo is Horrid. Backing singer's over powering Kate at times. A lot of people will love this song with Princes input sounds like a Pop Song in parts. Totally Unlike her beautiful Songs Kate sings so eloquently. This is only My Opinion. 👩🏽🦽😷🕊

I like this. A very thoughtful and comparative comment. Thank you. I'll make it top comment for others to enjoy.🕊👁💜

Coincidentally, Lenny Henry was also born in summer of 1958 -- all three of them around a month apart
Well said, they are connected Prince and Kate 🎸💜🔮🎩👏
Brilliant comment! Well observed!
the most underrated musicians ever. the beethovens and verdis of our time.
I just want to imagine in my head, Prince and Kate dancing around the studio listening to this song.
I think imagination would be required as they contributed independently and never sang it together.👀👁💜🦋
@@princebootlegchannel Quite true and both Prince and Kate Bush were explorers of their own imaginations! Love the article you included with the song too.
ThankU. I aim to please and inform.👀👌💜👁
Can you believe they both have the top 2 spots on Billboard after all these years?! Great music never fades away!❤️🔥
It is unbelievable.👁💎
What spot did Prince have? I really have been in my own world the last couple of years🤑
I remember hearing this song for the first time and listening to the chorus thinking "oh prince would have been great in this". Well now I feel quite silly, lol.
Righteously masterious excellence.
Kate Bush is everything
👏👏💜
... and more

I love how he tempers her passion without quashing the spirit of the song. A bit like slow sex.
My ideal woman too 😍
I'd never had guessed...😏😂👏👏👏✌👑
@@princebootlegchannel But it's her fault 😂
Love this song so positive 💕 2 gentle souls pouring out their hearts in worship
🙏💜🎶🎵🎶💜
Because of your comment, I will always hear this as a worship song, and it will forever lift my heart in praise.
Fabulous album

Indeed connecting the dots with Lenny and Prince that our friends across the pond won't understand..( lenny doing Prince)...😉😉👏👏👏
There were some odd collaborations on that album. Percy Thrower and Rolf Harris too.
@@princebootlegchannel We also watch the Simpsons

This song is beautiful ❤️
I needed it when I was praying for help in helping someone...
I love this song so long time in my life.
💜👁💎🐘🌻🦋
So real connection there. and the production is masterful (like Prince) who he surely did.
👁🙌🕊💜
It's crazy that my 3 fav female artist Stevie Knicks, Tina Marie, and Kate Bush. All have 1 thing in common . My fav male artist Prince. Crazy.
this go hard.
I fucking live this album!! No fucking way! I didn’t know!! I’m so glad I love both artists!! RIP Prince and and health to Kate
cuss language is insulting, but mostly to you
My ultimate idol & I adore Kate & their music wonderful ❤️ 🎶
💜🕊👁💎
stunning track. only wish we heard more of Prince and less Lenny...and had more collab between the two, sigh. Kate Bush is a genius.
To my mind it was musical perfection
Dope

Wild

この曲を探して、ケイト関連の方から辿ってやってきました。このコラボは当時、ものすごく意外でしたが、天才同士上手くマッチングしたようです。もちろん今聴いても、カッコいい曲だと思います。(*'▽'*)
👍🦋🕊💜🎶🎵🎶🎶👁
Who is related to her, I wonder?
I know what you mean about a young Kate😍
Haven’t heard this before - put it on the same level as ‘Jughead’ and ‘Arms of Orion’ (I don’t like it😉).
Certainly not as good a collaboration as the one between Kate and Peter Gabriel - ‘Don’t Give Up’.
Thanks for educating me😂🤣
Yo, I was just listening to the podcast where you were talking about Jughead, Arms of Orion, and T.C. Ellis. Had me crackin' up!!

This is Wild too.. OutKast on KB ruclips.net/video/oSdHgq3oBD8/видео.html
Ever wonder what his version (the one hr sent back to her) sounded like?
It's on RUclips somewhere. It came up in my suggestions...😜
