Stranger things TV show takes place in the 1980's. My god, the 1980's is one of the most unique time periods of history. I hope clothes that the characters are wearing is true to history. I have been hooked to this show ever since it first came out.

Kate Bush is changing lives and winning hearts with her song, Running Up That Hill!! Thank you, Samuel Kim for this truly remarkable [epic] version of the ST S4 Trailer music!!
There are a lot of these remix versions doing the rounds but this for me is the pick of the bunch due to how incredible well you mixed Running Up That Hill' with the Stranger Things theme tune. That driving beat also really helps give it a soundtrack feel. Really well done.
Running up that hill, old clocks, Vecna, the whole season 4 - unforgettable summer 2022 vibe. I think I won't forget this series for the rest of my life!!
This show made me feel things i didnt know existed. You guys can argue with me all you want but this is one of the, if not THE best show netflix has ever made.
I read last week kate Bush was very pleasantly surprised this song has become a hit again for her . Thanks to the show . Its charted again i believe. Or her royalty checks have escalated.
Best version possible! You’ve always been amazing and I love seeing you experiment with new or different combinations of sounds! This is taking everything you’ve ever done and putting it together and turning it up to 11! I love your sound and look forward to how it continues to evolve and become even more amazing!
I know some main characters are gonna die and I'm not ready at all but still I don't think stranger things has ever been hyped up this much this is just crazy and ur covers are pushing me off the cliff of hype
okay listen I gotta be honest. I haven't seen ST. I know what happens and what makes this song so important, and I already loved it to begin with. I just enjoyed your castlevania pieces and now I'm here shouting "oh damn" because oh damn this is good. this real good
I'm pretty sure Samuel Kim is secretly a seer and saw that he needed to add that guitar riff in the middle to honor Eddie's heroic sacrifice! Thank you truly for this masterpiece!
I posted this on TOTEM's page, but Imma post this here afteer hearing this EPIC Cover!!!! I'm a grown a** man.... but when I saw Max running for dear life, sheer determination, to escape, and to live..... i bloody could've stood up and started yelling "GO GO GOOO! YEEEAAAHH!" at the bloody screen. Amazing scenes, amazing fight in that character, and amazing music. Absolutely moving. All I need now is an extended version of this song and I'll have my workout music set for the next 6 months haha. This is a beyond amazing cover by the way. The orginal remix by TOTEM is amazing, but this cover surely scratches that itch left behind by the shorter version. You've done something really special here. Thank you for sharing your talent and your skill by blessing us with this amazing cover!!!!
I love Max's character and I believe in all of the seasons so far, she had the most development, even more than WIll, a kid that was kidnapped and possessed. (The writers kinda killed Will's character because of this) But the show has a main problem, like other shows in the same genre. They are afraid to kill off a main character. In s3 it was Hopper, this season, it was Max. Like seriously, if you plan to sacrifice a character for plot, don't stop it in the middle. Just cut the limb fast and swiftly and move on.
Omg yes, agreed! Max’s running scene was a really, really good scene… but I already knew she was going to survive (because yes, writers don’t have balls to kill mcs off). If the writers did a better job at not being so predictable, it would’ve been an even greater, gripping and more emotional scene.
@@junejun8 I think that suggested ending would have been emotional, but the message of the scene, the difficult fight to get through depression and surviving through it, would have been lost.
Tottaly agree, I can't see the point of keeping her broken like that 😭 Max is my favourite character yet I wish they had closure for her like Eddie and died a hero not keeping her in a coma.
Will's presence really did feel lacklustre this season. However he did get his interaction once again with the Henry, so that should indicate that he's going to be the maim attraction for season 5. And I really hope so. It would tie together the season one and two feels again.
I love this soundtrack so much! Ever since I saw the first season of Stranger Things I haven't stopped watching it until it's over. Really, a lot of people recommended it to me, but I didn't listen! Then I realized that it was a very good and entertaining series. Season 4, not to mention, has an excellent plot and amazing storylines. Thank you Stranger Things for existing. :D
I loved the isolation of each instrument. I could hear the subtle clock ticking in the background…that was almost as amazing as the theme song for stranger things incorporated seamlessly into the beat. Title is correct. Epic version of this song.
@@soum1kan Nahh , don't get me wrong. He was an asshole but i enjoyed seeing his character through the series. It gave something else yk? Why would i lie? 🤷🏼♀️
@@MissMedeiros the moment i started to think that Alexei was gonna be one of my favs, he died. Idk about Barbara tho. I liked her but she didn't grow on me tbh 😅
that slowmo scene is just so powerful! idk but it does something to me... i feel so energized and motivated as if i can overcome my hardships and fight any battle life throws at me.
2:00 hit right as I was going through some old writings in my closet and the emotional punch hit right as I read that a character I’ve been digging up a lot of recently got killed off by my middle school self… and the worst part, he and his brother were like sons to a couple of other characters and now I’m shattered sitting here on the floor reading my tween’s heart-knife-twisty fun T-T
As a fellow writer, killing your darlings is always a bitter pill to swallow, but some characters - like real people - shine brightest at the end. Revisiting old writing is always fun.
