She sings like that because she's playing Cathy, as a ghost, reaching through the window to Heathcliffe asleep in his room. She's also a dancer and choreographs all her songs to enhance them, it's a full art performance.
Kate plays a Ghost in this video, that explains the way she is dancing, this is a Genius at work. I think you reviewed her song Cloudbusting, which is also based on a book, Tori is a big fan of hers.
Many years ago, I was awakened on a Saturday morning by my radio alarm, playing Cloudbusting. It was the best awakening from sleep I have ever had in my 56 years. I still remember it vividly.
Words struggle to pay tribute to this. She wrote it when she was 18. It's based on the book and film; she is playing a ghost. It's heavenly in one sense but in another sense quite dark because it's a ghostly and forlorn apparition at .... the window. Anyway, song, performance, dance and lyrics it's all amazing to watch. It's a performance like few others.
Not stictly true although there was a Catherine and a Cathy in the story they were different people. It was Catherine who was in love with Heathcliff rather than Cathy (Cathy being Catherine's daughter).
she knocked Take a Chance On Me out of the UK #1 slot! honestly though if anyone is worthy of taking the number one slot chart from ABBA, it’s Kate Bush
This was an iconic moment in the history of Uk Pop Music back in Februrary 1978. When this came out on Top of the Pops, I think everybody just went "Wow what was that?". An absolute classic track performed by one of the most talented artists ever to come out of the UK Pop/Rock Scene. Kate Bush brilliant singer, song writer, pianist and dancer...Love it.
This was her first single. She was only 19 at the time. It never charted in the USA,its follow up “The Man With The Child In His Eyes”(react to that one)got to #85 on the Billboard Hot 100 in early 1979. Pat Benatar covered this in 1980.
Derek, listen till the very end where she ends up on a very high note. Everything about Kate Bush is superior. Her voice, her persona, her musicianship, writing, composing, producing most of it all by herself too, there is no one else like her!
This original was so unusual and so good. But she decided to record again this song many years later. For me, the second version is more dramatic... You can feel the passing-by of life (with happiness and sadness) in her voice. I think because of this prime of life, she was able to perform an extra range of vocals in order to show the nuances and the complexity of the story she delivered. The one of Kathy and Heathcliff... The characters of Wuthering Heights
Kate Bush is like a female David Bowie, artistic to the max, versatile, consistent and always pushing the boundaries, a phenomenal songwriter and performer. And like Bowie was into almost every kind of art she also dances and acts during her song performances to make the audience experience the song not just with their ears. Did I mention that she's a genius ? Nominated for the rock and roll hall of fame twice already, a shame that she's still not in.
The Red Dress version is celebrated annually by women raising funds for Breast Cancer research. Here is a link: ruclips.net/video/Je75AtbrPh8/видео.html
My sister and myself thought she was a witch when we seen this- we were 6 and 7 at the time though. I love early Kate bush especially[ Wow] and [The man with the child in his eyes].
Wuthering Heights, 1978, singing as Cathy from the Oscar winning film "Wuthering Heights" 1939 staring Lawrence Olivier. Cathy is passed over and is waiting for her lover Heathciff on a mountain pass, their favourite place "wuthering heights". Written by Emily Bronte 1849.
She re recorded the song years later (it was included in her 'The Whole Story' album) with added vocals mostly featured during the instrumental outro of the songs but this version is better in my opinion. Her record label EMI didn't want 'Wuthering Heights' to be the first single to precede the release of her upcoming album 'The kick Inside', they wanted 'James and the Cold Gun' which sounded more rock/upbeat. She fought hard to change their mind and won. The rest is history, the song shot to number one and her career immediately took off becoming one of the most talented artists this world has ever known. She is a genius!!
she is the greatest music genius; her musical creation, her voice, her performance, absolutely magical and unique, I love Kate Bush from Chile 🇨🇱 I love you KB ever
Kate Bush is playing the ghost of Cathy Earnshaw - back from another ethereal plane, to collect the soul of Heathcliffe, her long time love from childhood. Kate Bush was taught mime by 'Linsey Kemp', who also taught mime to David Bowie.
I bloody love Kate Bush. So influential and always doing her own thing, never chasing trends to stay relevant. She's awesome. Please do The Sensual World, Sat In Your Lap, Running Up That Hill, Cloudbusting, Experiment IV, Army Dreamers, Babooshka etc . :) Ok i did a quick search and you've already done Running Up That Hill and Cloudbusting. Awesome. :)
This was made when she was 19, it was her first hit in the UK. She composed the song based on her school studies of the novel and she also created the choreography for this, the dance style became more commonplace in the early 80s so for the late 70s it was still quite unknown and unique.
This takes me back to my high school days. Kate is one of a kind . This song is so hauntingly beautiful it sometimes will give me chills. Thanks for this one.
Fun fact about the genius that is Kate Bush. Kate was born exactly 140 years after Emily Brontë (30th July 1958 (Happy 63rd birthday Kate for this Friday) & Emily was born 30th July 1818)
Great! 😍 I adore this Kate Bush song, I used to dance around listening to it when I was a bit younger... OK, I confess, I still dance to it sometimes (plus kinda sing) 😉 And the story, so deep, chilling, passionate, sad. Oh my god... The masterpiece!
The Harmonies, The Melody, The Feelings...!?! I found this song strange and uncomfortably to hear when I was a young teenager(13-18..) although I was into music a lot !! For every time I heard it on Radio it got to me more and more.. Today..well, there are not many songs more beautiful than this one!! ...and Imagine writing and perform this song at the age of 19.. just pure Talent !! :) :)
Such a coincidence - I could not bear not owning the compact disc format of THE WHOLE STORY, Kate Bush's first ever compilation released in 1986 that I ordered a used copy from Amazon (Japan) today. It has a new version of Wuthering Heights though. Despite having the LP and the digital copy, I just need to own the compact disc to complete the collection - the greatest hits album was a primer to the body of work from Kate Bush for me.
Kate is ans has always been a British icon, she has always been very theatrical in her dancing and expression she is brilliant and still has sale out concerts.
This was actually the first vision of Kate Bush to the UK public at large. One of those songs and videos that stopped people in their tracks. The lyrics and dance interpretation of the famous novel spot on.
In case you didn't know, Kate was absolutely original, and she was only 18 when she composed, wrote, and performed 'Wuthering Heights'? She was also the first British female artiste to write and perform her own No.1 record.
This was her first single. The first number one in the U.K. self penned by a female vocalist...ever!!! She was 19 here and if I remember correctly this song was written when she was 16.
“How’d it do in the US?” me: [laughs in Kate Bush fan who knows she only had a number 1 and it was on the billboard modern rock tracks list and it was Love and Anger off The Sensual World]
Kate Bush or, as I dare state, The One and Only Original Down To Earth Female Genius Musician, Dancer and Choreographer. I am delighted that a new generation will get to know her, come to love her like we did when she first fell out of heaven. (oh, that's so lame but you know what I mean....)
Kate was born on 1958. Tori was born on 1963. "Wuthering heights" was written in March 1977. Kate was 18 and a half years old. Amos was 14 by that time... Who's is copying who? Stop kidding me y'all
Dereck should react to Émilie Simon, she's often described by lazy journalists as "the french Kate Bush" while being so much more, as one of the only singer-songwriter and electronica sound designer of the current French scene. After a long hiatus (again, like Kate Bush) Émilie has been hinting at a new album on her official page.
'The sensual world' based on James Joyce's 'Ulysses' is the other book and 'Cloud busting' from 'book of dreams' by David Reich. She is a trail blazing genius!
She was the first female artist to have a number one that she wrote herself, it's based on the Emily Brontë novel written in the 1800s about Cathy who loves Heathcliff, then she dies and comes back to haunt him. Kate was a trained dancer as well as a classical pianist. Try "Man with the child in his eyes", written when she was 15.
She actually wrote 'The Man With the Child in his Eyes' at the age of 13, and recorded it at 16. It was one of the 3 songs (out of about the 50 she recorded roughly at the time) that Dave Gilmore picked out for her to record a professional level demo, which enabled her to get a record deal. It's almost incomprehensible that a 13 year old could write something that deep...... Kate is a phenomenal talent!
And her voice sounds so much better in the re-recorded version. In the original version her voice sounds so "squeaky"...when I heard it for the first time, I thought she was a child, when she recorded it. ;)
Wonderful Kate, this is one of the best songs ever written and of course she wrote it because she’s a genius. This song explains the story of Wutherin heights ( a very famous book) in a nutshell. It’s a heartbreaking love story, Kate expresses it perfectly. I don’t know if you did “a woman’s work” already or not. So many more great songs to pick from.
I remember a moment when I was at a store in Carnaby street London in 1987 and this one was played and I had to leave the store because I was crying. that is how much 16 y old me loved this song. 😁 And then I read the book that the song is based on. Heathcliff and Kathy was not very pleasant ppl, but daumn the story was good. And the story made Kate Bush herself make a song about it, so it is obviously amazing.
Love the way you go deep into the songs, musically and meaning. Kate is an amazing artist, check out her 'This Woman's Work', it's a classic that's been covered by so many other artists. ❤️🔥
Really, thank you so much for that reaction, Dereck. I really love that song so much. It's part of my favorite songs of all time. And Kate Bush is also a great singer with a so beautiful voice. So, thank you for that beautiful song, Dereck.
Thanks for the reaction! Here's a live clip of Kate performing "Wuthering Heights" while at the piano: ruclips.net/video/GaCDaXd5Xyw/видео.html . Another more unsual clip is this one, taken from the Efteling TV-special. It's a bit more obvious in that one what Kate is portraying - a ghost. I think that the line "Let me have it, let me grab your soul away" feels more sinister in this setting... The quality isn't the best, but what can you do: ruclips.net/video/JlxWW97JtbE/видео.html I have some vague memory that Tori said that she's not _consciously_ influenced by Kate, although she has expressed appreciation for Kate's music. Personally I believe that she at least to some extent is, but Kate's influenced many musicians. And they're both kind of quirky in a way I find very endearing 😊 [Edit] Oh right, forgot to mention a bit of trivia. Every year on Kate's birthday, fans gather here in Sweden (and I assume many other places in the world) to reenact Kate's dance moves from "Wuthering Heights", affectionately called "the witch dance". 😀
@@calanor4130 thank you, thank you! i originally asked about Running Up That Hill but he said he had made a Kate video before and even though i have notifs turned on i never saw it. did you know what song it was?
@@calanor4130 yep, checked it out and he’s done RUTH and Cloudbusting. can’t wait until he tackles anything off the dreaming (would love to see Sat in Your Lap as much as Suspended in Gaffa) bc it’s gonna blow his mind
@@calanor4130 also if you like my name, check out my one demo of me singing part of a Frida song because if i get like any subscribers i’ll probably be more motivated to keep making music!
One of the greatest talents ever to come out of the U.K. She's a genius.
kate bush est un chef d'oeuvre a elle seule...:)
Véritablement touchée par la Grâce, un génie musical.
Thanks England for giving us Kate 🙏
To ever come out of the universe!
@@Nico3039 Toot Toot la mon child ;-)
Correct.
She sings like that because she's playing Cathy, as a ghost, reaching through the window to Heathcliffe asleep in his room. She's also a dancer and choreographs all her songs to enhance them, it's a full art performance.

Yes I love this video, shows Kate at her best.
YES ! Maybe that's why he thinks the video is weird... if you don't get the reference lyrics/book, it's hard to understand !
Many years ago, I was awakened on a Saturday morning by my radio alarm, playing Cloudbusting. It was the best awakening from sleep I have ever had in my 56 years. I still remember it vividly.

This song is recounting the love story of Wuthering Heights, Heathcliff and Cathy.
Not stictly true although there was a Catherine and a Cathy in the story they were different people. It was Catherine who was in love with Heathcliff rather than Cathy (Cathy being Catherine's daughter).
@@madabbafan I know, but she referred to herself as Cathy in the song
I remember Kate bursting onto the music scene looking and sounding like nothing we'd seen before. I've been in love with her since. 💖
Me too ! it was certainly a game changer in 78 😊
she knocked Take a Chance On Me out of the UK #1 slot! honestly though if anyone is worthy of taking the number one slot chart from ABBA, it’s Kate Bush
The UK changed their mind and took a chance on Kate ;)
May 1978
That's strange I watched a video and it said every country she was number 1 but didn't include Sweden, I thought I bet that was ABBA
This was an iconic moment in the history of Uk Pop Music back in Februrary 1978. When this came out on Top of the Pops, I think everybody just went "Wow what was that?".

*"Kate Bush - This woman's work" You have to react to this one !!!!!*
Indeed
After 30 years she did a comebacks all her concerts were sold out in minutes a truly great artist
This was her first single. She was only 19 at the time. It never charted in the USA,its follow up “The Man With The Child In His Eyes”(react to that one)got to #85 on the Billboard Hot 100 in early 1979. Pat Benatar covered this in 1980.
Yes ! The Man With The Child In His Eyes is so good.
In Brazil that songs still play on easy listening FM radio stations
Wow, I didn't know that Pat Benatar covered this! - Just listening to it, not bad at all! :)
Elisabetta - agree 100%. Kate Bush is a genre unto herself.
@@helmutb2612 and there is the cover by Angra too
This was her debut track. Absolutely blew me away!
She's mesmerizing .... I love her voice !
Kate, the emperess of music! You need 1 year to discover her world, albums that are gems!!!!
Kate Bush is my favorite artist of all time. She is incredible! Absolutely recommend listening to her albums.
The chorus of that song is like a dream... No other words 😍😍😍
First British female artist to reach No.1 with a self written song (Wuthering Heights) and also first to have a UK no.1 album.
Derek, listen till the very end where she ends up on a very high note.
Everything about Kate Bush is superior. Her voice, her persona, her musicianship, writing, composing, producing most of it all by herself too, there is no one else like her!
One of my favorite artists. No one comes even close to her. This song is one of my all time favorites. I really have an old soul.
Oh my God I am so happy you’re tackling Kate bush! If you need some suggestions, let me know!
Love the song "Wow". That is amazing
"This Woman's work" a fantastic song.
"Kate Bush & David Gilmour - Running Up That Hill (live)" - It's something else
This original was so unusual and so good. But she decided to record again this song many years later. For me, the second version is more dramatic... You can feel the passing-by of life (with happiness and sadness) in her voice.

No one has a voice like Kate, she is and will always be beautiful. .
Good video as always. XD
You can also try her duo with Peter Gabriel "Don't give up" ^^
Kate Bush is like a female David Bowie, artistic to the max, versatile, consistent and always pushing the boundaries, a phenomenal songwriter and performer.

There’s a second version of the video,the red dress version,that was released internationally.
This video is better, the white dress gives more the idea of a ghost than the red dress.
The Red Dress version is celebrated annually by women raising funds for Breast Cancer research. Here is a link: ruclips.net/video/Je75AtbrPh8/видео.html
My sister and myself thought she was a witch when we seen this- we were 6 and 7 at the time though. I love early Kate bush especially[ Wow] and [The man with the child in his eyes].
The video shows her as a ghost. She is Cathy who was in love with Heathcliff in the book and film of Wuthering Heights.
I was 15 when this song came out, here in Italy it made a resounding success, how many memories of youth on these notes, I get goosebumps

Kate Bush never repeats herself. She does very different things. She's classically trained, which adds immensely to her quality.
Such a brilliant song and so well performed - This was the start of a phenomenal career !!
OMG, I love Kate Bush, this song is so iconic and yes it is not an easy song to sing and cover. She is amazing.
shes a genius
This is still my favorite of Kate Bush... iconic
Kate Bush is playing the ghost of Cathy Earnshaw - back from another ethereal plane, to collect the soul of Heathcliffe, her long time love from childhood.
Kate Bush was taught mime by 'Linsey Kemp', who also taught mime to David Bowie.
Finally!!!! It took you a long time...a looooooooooong time to get back to Miss Bush. Kate is THE Génesis off all

A wonderful song : music, lyrics and kate's voice. But my favorite song by Kate bush Is....army dreamers.
Great! 😍 I adore this Kate Bush song, I used to dance around listening to it when I was a bit younger... OK, I confess, I still dance to it sometimes (plus kinda sing) 😉 And the story, so deep, chilling, passionate, sad. Oh my god... The masterpiece!
One of the greatest reactions of this song and noting the music score especially the end guitar work.Good Job
Something that gives me a similar feel is moonlight shadow by mike oldfield. Maggie Reilly is the singer.
OMG! I thought the same thing! Jeez, you're only in a handful of people I know the have ever heard Mike Oldfield's vocal compositions. WOW!
@@cherylbohlender7341 He's a brilliant artist and has such a diverse range. Awesome to share it with you!

Oh Dereck, you're in for an amazing ride with Kate Bush
The story of this song is fantastic, she‘s dancing as the ghost from the gothic novel Wuthering Heights who‘s trying to enter the house.
This was actually the first vision of Kate Bush to the UK public at large. One of those songs and videos that stopped people in their tracks. The lyrics and dance interpretation of the famous novel spot on.
In case you didn't know, Kate was absolutely original, and she was only 18 when she composed, wrote, and performed 'Wuthering Heights'? She was also the first British female artiste to write and perform her own No.1 record.
the guitar solo in the outro… chef’s kiss
It’s epic! I can never get enough of it!
This was her first single. The first number one in the U.K. self penned by a female vocalist...ever!!! She was 19 here and if I remember correctly this song was written when she was 16.
Kate Bush, she is a great singer, songwriter, producer ... she is an incredible artist.
Realised 1978, she wrote this and the whole album “kick inside” when she was 17…. True talent !!
“How’d it do in the US?” me: [laughs in Kate Bush fan who knows she only had a number 1 and it was on the billboard modern rock tracks list and it was Love and Anger off The Sensual World]
Heh. Could tell by your name you a Kate Bush fan, yep. Cool song. And video too. :)
Number 1 everywhere but the us
did it even get a fair chance there? instead pat benatar made an americanized cover 2 years later that got some fame.
The first UK female artiste to have a number 1 hit song written by herself.
An absolute music treasure!
She wrote this when she was 14 years old. Mike (Tubular Bells) Oldfield on electric guitar at the end.
@jonforster656 More like 18 (March '77)....... and that was Ian Bairnson on the solo.
You did it, Dereck! Kate Busk is absolutely wonderful. Thank you Dereck! 🍀🍀🍀🍀🌠
Kate Bush or, as I dare state, The One and Only Original Down To Earth Female Genius Musician, Dancer and Choreographer. I am delighted that a new generation will get to know her, come to love her like we did when she first fell out of heaven. (oh, that's so lame but you know what I mean....)
👏👏👏👏👏💐
Kate was born on 1958.

Beautifull song of Kate Bush. Derek, the same music on the same time, Jerry Rafferty, Baker street, beautifull so !

Yes Émilie ❤️ excellent idea
A MAJOR TEAR-JERKER NOT TO MENTION EXTREMELY BEAUTIFUL!!
she is simply brilliant!
Your face when you started listening to this was just like mine back in 1978. Still listening now 😊
I REALLY ENJOYED EVERYTHING ABOUT IT!!
How can Kate Bush be compared to anyone - she is unique !
Oh my heart... Kate ✨💜💜💜 This song timeless...
She is wonderful. I have loved her for years
Great song for one of my favourite books Wuthering Heights
The video is stunning and so ofcourse is the song. She is a rare genius.
I love the novel and this song is so great!! I think it captures perfectly the essence of the story. I also like Angra's cover of this one.
And the movie with Ralph Fiennes and Juliette Binoche
'The sensual world' based on James Joyce's 'Ulysses' is the other book and 'Cloud busting' from 'book of dreams' by David Reich. She is a trail blazing genius!
She is sublime.
She was the first female artist to have a number one that she wrote herself, it's based on the Emily Brontë novel written in the 1800s about Cathy who loves Heathcliff, then she dies and comes back to haunt him. Kate was a trained dancer as well as a classical pianist. Try "Man with the child in his eyes", written when she was 15.
Waouaw Dereck c est une déesse Kate Bush
Her voice so special and catchy
Thank you so much for dont forget such an unbeliveable star ☺️💚⭐💚
Dereck, Tori Amos belongs to 90´s 😉 The AMAZING Kate Bush is from early 70's ... Without, Kate Bush, no Björk 😉 Even David Bowie copies her !!
The Man with the Child in his Eyes, written by Kate at 17, is a unique, haunting, and in my opinion, beautiful song also worth your attention.
She actually wrote 'The Man With the Child in his Eyes' at the age of 13, and recorded it at 16. It was one of the 3 songs (out of about the 50 she recorded roughly at the time) that Dave Gilmore picked out for her to record a professional level demo, which enabled her to get a record deal.
It's almost incomprehensible that a 13 year old could write something that deep...... Kate is a phenomenal talent!
Dereck you should totally listen to the NEW VOCAL version of this song because the ending is even more epic...!
but the reverb makes it sound like she recorded it in a bathroom wjfjsjfj
And her voice sounds so much better in the re-recorded version. In the original version her voice sounds so "squeaky"...when I heard it for the first time, I thought she was a child, when she recorded it. ;)
@@frederichorndasch9302 Part of the reason she re-recorded it from what I heard.
@@phoenixfire83 I actually don’t like the re-recorded version, I much prefer this version.
Wonderful Kate, this is one of the best songs ever written and of course she wrote it because she’s a genius. This song explains the story of Wutherin heights ( a very famous book) in a nutshell. It’s a heartbreaking love story, Kate expresses it perfectly. I don’t know if you did “a woman’s work” already or not. So many more great songs to pick from.

Heathcliff and Kathy was not very pleasant ppl, but daumn the story was good. And the story made Kate Bush herself make a song about it, so it is obviously amazing.
no one can sing this like Kate
I think "Cloudbusting" is what you were talking about. That one was also inspired by a book.
I've always loved this one, that high pitched feminine / girly voice is mesmerising.
Love the way you go deep into the songs, musically and meaning. Kate is an amazing artist, check out her 'This Woman's Work', it's a classic that's been covered by so many other artists. ❤️🔥

OMG i have been waiting for you to review a kate song FOREVER! can you please do Suspended in Gaffa?
Ooo, "Suspended in Gaffa"! One of my favourites, although there are a bunch of them when it comes to Kate 😊 Nice handle, by the way!
@@calanor4130 thank you, thank you! i originally asked about Running Up That Hill but he said he had made a Kate video before and
even though i have notifs turned on i never saw it. did you know what song it was?
@@ExperimentIV I was wondering the same thing 😮 I get way too many notifications, so things tend to get lost.
@@calanor4130 yep, checked it out and he’s done RUTH and Cloudbusting. can’t wait until he tackles anything off the dreaming (would love to see Sat in Your Lap as much as Suspended in Gaffa) bc it’s gonna blow his mind
@@calanor4130 also if you like my name, check out my one demo of me singing part of a Frida song because if i get like any subscribers i’ll probably be more motivated to keep making music!
