    Kate Bush is a genius, a true original. I loved your reaction, and look forward to more videos. Kate was the first woman to achieve a #1 song & album that was self-written (in the UK). Her first song Wuthering Heights in 1978 was such an anomaly to anything on the radio, but so brilliant that it became a hit. She is a great vocalist, songwriter, keyboardist/pianist, Fairlight CMI programmer, producer and dancer.

    Back in the 1980's in the US, I didn't know anything about Kate's solo works. I just knew her as the woman with the beautiful voice in a few Peter Gabriel songs. The song 'Don't Give Up' with Peter and Kate is really gorgeous.

    "Tell me we both matter don't we?" This line -and the whole song gives me goosebumps every time I listen to it. She is so original and expressive. Her voice carries so much emotion and character. I think it would be impossible for anyone else to sound quite like her. And isn't that the best thing an artist could wish for?

    - King Of the Mountain (2005), on Elvis Presley
    - A Coral Room (2005)
    - Pi (2005), a song on the number pi, that shows how to sing digits... ;-)
    - Side B of Aerial: "A Sky Of Honey", 9 songs as conceptual cycle on a given day (2005), esp. Sunset ff.
    - Wild Man (2011)
    - Snowed In At Wheeler Street (2011), feat. Elton John
    - 50 Words For Snow (2011), feat. Stephen Fry
    It's not easy to create such a list, this is just a little excerpt, I've probably forgotten a lot of songs and included some, that others might not include.
    Remember: The "worst" Kate Bush song is still special and unique!

    Kate Bush is an artistic genius at many levels. She was a child prodigy who explored much regarding the 'human condition' including some taboo subject matter in her music. She choreographed her own dance, mime, music & video production. Her technical vocal skills are top tier as well as her understanding of musical mood presentation.

    Kate Bush used as one of the first artists ever, as did Peter Gabriel (Peter Gabriel 3 and 4) and Mike Oldfield (Five Miles Out and Crises), the Fairlight CMI (Computer Music Instrument) für her record 'The Hounds of Love'. This is where all the sampling age started. By the way Kate Bush was discovered by David Gilmour of Pink Floyd. He financed here first record 'The Kick Inside'. Suggestions from this record, 'Wuthering Heights' and 'The Man With the Child in His Eyes.

    New to your channel and a massive Kate Bush fan (since the 80s). While she isn't a large commercial success, Kate is widely regarded as one of the greatest female musical artists of all time. Not only was she ahead of her time, she composed all the music, produced, arranged, and wrote all her songs. She is also regarded as having a fantastic voice (she uses her voice like an instrument) and is also a brilliant pianist. On top of that she was a great dancer and physical artist, trained by Lindsey Kemp (who also taught David Bowie) and a gorgeous woman famed for her large mane of hair 🙂

      @@isobeljames1328 Yes I am talking primarily about America, but also, I would still say in general. While her albums did reach the top 10 (and some top 5), she's only had 2 albums hit number 1. Her singles also never consistently hit number 1 either. She's not MJ or Madonna in that regard for example. Also, she became a recluse from the late 80s and then again after The Red Shoes. She also famously only toured once in her life (twice if you count the Hammersmith in 2014). But by her own admission, she was never doing it for the fame. She never liked the fame that came in her early career. And even despite all that, she is still one of the greatest female artists of all time. So I don't see her commercial success as a negative tbh.

    when I was 11 years old in 1980 my older sister heard the record "never forever" with the hit single "Babooshka" a lot. I didn´t understand the real meaning of song and the artist. I was more or less impressed of the woman, the costume and this song. 1985, with "Runnig up that hill" I was so flashed that I explored Kates vita and older songs. At this time, with age of 16, I got a better understanding. I was impressed about her versatility, range of voice and the deepnes of her songs. Kates music still accompanies me today.

She created her own world of musical expression. I don't think there's been a musician in the entire history of the world that has done what she has. Multidimensional talent set free for our enjoyment.

    Stranger Things (ST) was the vehicle/catalyst for this 1985 song's revival, but not the reason why it had such a successful revival in 2022. After all, it isn't the only old song that ST has featured, but nobody is talking about any of the others. Rather, the reason is that this 1985 song is about something which would have been very unpopular in 1985, particularly in USA, but which in 2022/2023 is the subject of a big global social engineering bandwagon, namely the issue of gender transitioning and attitudes towards transgender people. Strangely though, still nobody seems to want to publicly admit that this song has a gender transitioning theme. Rather they seem to think that somehow by liking it and promoting it, it will help their cause. That is a bit odd!
