      Indeed, which makes me think Beth should consider judging a video of ‘Pastorale’ by List & Shaffy: ruclips.net/video/IJsrqyfFOSk/видео.html
      The best duet ever.
      The language is Dutch, but I think the role playing does half of the translation.
      He’s the sun. She’s the earth.
      Come on, Beth, you can do it. You’ve reacted to weird old Dutch songs before.

      Yes, as the others have already pointed out, Kate is very skillfully singing out of key for macabre effect. Thanks to Steve, Annette and Keefie for noticing too. Keefie, I cut Beth a little slack just because she is younger, and today's youth really have no real concept of life BEFORE the computerized era. It's kind of like an abstract concept to them. It's kind of sad how we're losing our sense of talent and genius in ALL the arts. Are there ANY new songs that don't have computerized auto-correction of pitch in vocals anymore? I don't know because I can't listen to "modern" music anymore. Our children have lost the capacity to appreciate that someone like David Gilmour can sing a song like "Young Lust", then turn around and sing like "The Show Must Go On", then sing like in "You Know I'm Right." On top of that, he and his bandmates are the actual writers of most all of their songs too! On top of that, David plays guitar quite skillfully and has a signature sound. One his guitar solos is regularly voted as "one of the best ever", sometimes "THE BEST" in rock history. ("Comfortably Numb" -Pulse live version). On top of that, he is very skilled with many other instruments, including steel guitar and saxophone. Of course he also backed Kate Bush for a live performance of "Running Up That Hill." I fear the day may come when our youth CAN'T make music anymore. BTW, here ruclips.net/video/Ily36PPJmRc/видео.html is Pat Benatar singing Wuthering Heights as intended. Peace.

      New Falconer Records Someone on the .gaffa Usenet forum alleged that she’s naturally a mezzo. I think she’s more of a soprano - after all, she can belt up to soprano C and can connect into whistle range - but more of a dramatic one, who feigns a lyric sound. She does tend to have a pulled sound in the upper notes, that sounds almost like her voice has been warped in speed.

      Musical Neptunian Ooh! Those notes aren’t that high for a soprano (G#3 - F#5). I mean, footage from her first show has loads of passages exploring the fifth octave... heck, “Violin” goes up to F6! And she belts up to C#6 in a performance of “The Wedding List”. But she might have just trained herself into being a soprano for the time and then settled into mezzo by later on in her career. Her melodies became lower and her voice richer and more chest-dominant as time went on.

    Kate Bush is a non-linear singer. A national treasure, to be sure. There is no one like her.

I know of very few people, that are not heavily invested in music production, that see Kate Bush as anything other than a bit weird. Whereas, if you understand music, you still may not like her style but it is far more likely that you will.
