So relatable. Max's age, as well as her being in middle/ high school - it can be tough for anyone, but even when nobody seems to understand what you're dealing with, music always gets you through. What a great scene.
this scene broke me because not only can you tell Max is still mourning over Billy, but you also see how much has changed; including her relationship w/ Lucas, who she was closest to. she just seems so…. alone. 😟
I think Max & Lucas should get back together maybe they can stay friends cause i feel sad for her that she lost billy he was a asshole but still that’s her brother
There’s that instinct to push others away when someone you love dies is very real. When my dad died, in the first 12 hours I had thoughts of breaking up with my then boyfriend (now husband) because it was such a traumatic event, that the person I was closest to my whole life was gone, I couldn’t bear the idea of being that close to someone I could lose again
@@heyidaroo I totally relate to your comment. I did the exact same thing when my paternal grandmother died during the lockdown in 2020 (excluding breaking up with my lover because I don’t have one). I had a crush, I deeply fell in love with her 9 months ago but never had the courage of telling her, I never felt something more powerful and intense to someone. I never really talked to her, rare were the opportunities. She finally guessed it somehow last Tuesday evening and she respectfully refused. I respectfully wrote her back. My heart broke again like it happened when my ex girlfriend broke up with me 4 years ago, but this time, it was way more hurting, bleeding. This morning like every morning at school, same routine, I just take my headphones started to listen my favorites songs, (walking in the school, being calm and pretending to be a ghost because nobody sees me like I see people) but this time I started the songs I love but do make me feel sad (yes Running Up That Hill is part of them and the first one I played when I left my locker, followed by Don’t Come Close by Yeasayer and Sleepwalking by The Chain Gang of 1974). I tried a maximum to stay away from my friends and her. Tomorrow is going to be the same thing until I cure myself with the time I need to accept the situation.
Not just with Lucas … everyone. Season 4 went really dark and realistic when it came to friendships. Like literally everyone felt so disconnected .. which obviously was the point but still.
This scene hits harder now that we’ve seen the song’s significance in episode 4. I love how the camera zooms into El and then transitions to zooming out from Max; it shows a lovely parallel of how they both are struggling so much and how much they need each other. El probably would’ve gotten Max to open up and perhaps Max could’ve taught El how to stand up for herself (with words, not powers). I’m hoping so hard these two can reunite before the duffer brothers have a chance to kill either one of them 🙃 Edit: I am well aware that the last part of this comment didn’t age well 😢😢😢😢🙃🙃🙃
Regardless of the time period, everyone has experienced walking down the hallway listening to a song that just captures what you are going through. That is what makes this scene so powerful for me at least. I was a Freshman in 2010 and my Kate Bush song I listened to on repeat on my iPod shuffle was Sweet Disposition.
I was a sophomore in 2010 and mine were 1901 by Phoenix and 21 Guns by Green Day. I did not have an iPod shuffle tho, I had a blue Zune MP3 player that could only hold about 400 songs so I had to choose wisely lol
As a sad 19 years old guy, I totally relate to Max. As we all can see, she is sad and traumatized because of Billy's death and because of this event, se broke up with Lucas. I had a crush, I deeply fell in love with her 9 months ago but never had the courage of telling her, I never felt something more powerful and intense to someone. I never really talked to her, rare were the opportunities. She finally guessed it somehow last Tuesday evening and she respectfully refused. I respectfully wrote her back. My heart broke again like it happened when my ex girlfriend broke up with me 4 years ago, but this time, it was way more hurting, bleeding. Last Wednesday morning, like every morning at school, same routine, I just take my headphones started to listen my favorites songs, (walking in the school, being calm and pretending to be a ghost because nobody sees me like I see people) but this time I started the songs I love but do make me feel sad (yes Running Up That Hill is part of them and the first one I played when I left my locker, followed by Don’t Come Close by Yeasayer and Sleepwalking by The Chain Gang of 1974). I tried a maximum to stay away from my friends and her. Tomorrow is going to be the same thing until I cure myself with the time I need to accept the situation.
I remember watching this scene the first time. It hit me in a soft spot. High school, I always had some music blasting in my ears to get me through the day. In a crowd of people, you can still feel so alone. I still sometimes have those days. I hope you all are having a beautiful day. Please, keep living.
I first heard Kate Bush at my college radio station in the late 80s/early 90s. We got her to record a station ID! There was so much great music you only heard on college radio!
I like how we can sneak a little into Max subconcious here. It can appear to be just a scene to introduce the song that's goong to be important later, but if you pay attention she looks at people laughing, at girls talking and at a couple. It's kinda like she's missing Eleven and Lucas, missing feel alive as people around her and they show it just with the camera. That's genious
I feel like if Max and El would’ve still been together in the same place, Max wouldn’t have gotten so depressed. She didn’t just lose Billy at the end of Season 3. When the Byers moved, she lost her closest female friend too.
i cried a bit watching this, because it's been three years since high school ended. i grew up similar to max, didn't feel like any of my family was there for me, all i had were my friends who went through similar things that i was dealing with at home. now.. like el and will, i had to get away from home somehow, and in the process, i drifted away from my found family. after years of being the main person reaching out, i'm reconciling with the fact that i have to move on from them, too. watching the transition from el to max, and immediately after that, max's longing stare at the group of girls walking together... sometimes i wonder what my old friends think about, if like el and max, they're struggling without each other. even when i'm long past the grieving stage, a part of me will always hope we can meet again someday, and that a part of us still loves each other.
Damn everyone discovered and caught onto the song during the Vecna scene. Meanwhile I thought this was a catchy banger the moment I heard it in this very first episode ahaha. Immediately looked it up.
Great song and scene! This song takes me back to my days in college! I really wish that the music today exhibited an artists unique natural vocal ability. Too many artists sound the same today and use auto tune.
@MoyaBrennan6825 - It's the truth. The music today is awful. There's no unique natural signature vocal talent. Everyone wants to sing like each other and use autotune. It is just so sad. You should listen to talented vocal singers before 2000 and you will know what I mean. I will name a few here: George Michael, Freddie Mercury of Queen, Olivia Newton John, Elton John, Stevie Wonder, Paul McCartney, Whitney Houston, Michael Jackson, Steve Perry when he was with Journey, Natalie Cole, and others! What do these singers have in common? They don't sound like each other and they didn't use autotune!!!!
Max was literally me every time I went to school, listening to LINKIN PARK to help me cope and move on from my breakup. I don't want to talk about that.
Loving all the 80s tracks on season 4. This is pure class for its haunting melody and lyrics, if only I could make a deal with god to swap our places🥱 she’s missing Billy and would do anything for him. 😪. Then There’s Falco rock me amadeus at the roller skate rink. I used to tape all these tracks and played them on my Walkman at 15. Best times ever.
So I watched this a little later than most, but I know that Running Up that Bill played a big part, so when this scene came on I was like “oh! There it is, well that’s lovely I guess.” Not knowing what was coming later on 😭😭😭
0:22 nosotros desde primaria, secundaria, preparatoria y universidad hacemos eso de llegar a clases con nuestros audífonos y escuchar nuestras canciones de pop que tienen melancolía y observamos alrededor la gente que hay, tipos de personas haciendo cosas buenas y cosas malas, personas con problemas. 🖤🖤🖤🖤 ⚫🎧🎧🎧🎧🎤🎵🎶🎶🎶🎵
Cuando volví a ver la temporada por segunda vez esta escena me pegó mucho ❤️ quien sabría que está canción le iba a salvar la vida más tarde. Simplemente una obra de arte
Yes! My thoughts exactly. I mentioned in my own comment a few minutes ago that El may have been able to help Max open up, and Max could’ve helped to teach El how to stand up for herself. They need their besties and it kills me to see them in so much pain 💔
Şaiq, when you posted this the other day, I didn't understand the significance of what is happening. I don't have Netflix or anything, so I thought how cute Kate's music is being used. Had no idea she is freaking number one after 37 years all over the world, its insane.
Kids today word of advice, ditch your iPhones / cells whatever you generations call them today. Go outside to play man hunt… go play hide and go seek. Go spend a full day outside without technology, go home when the street lights turn on../ go for a long bike ride… go go explore somewhere where you aren’t aloud but come home to get in-trouble because you didn’t have technology on you. It is the best feeling. Feeling free… that’s what this song is all about
So relatable. Max's age, as well as her being in middle/ high school - it can be tough for anyone, but even when nobody seems to understand what you're dealing with, music always gets you through. What a great scene.

Chills...you can feel the emotion as if you're walking down the hallways of your own life.

have you watched season 4?
😭😭Yess I just rewatched it and it hits harder
Well lucas pretty much got max to open up. In fact he was the only who actually cared enough to try
@@annakateabcg oh yes. This comment is old and I am well aware that it didn’t she well 😂😂😂😢😢😢😢
She’s technically alive so, there’s a chance El could die. Maybe both. Who knows?

@@kendallbrooke3408 me with My Heart from Paramore. Nothing's stronger than a song that talks to you
I just loved the El to Max translation
Frr
I can’t stop loving this scene. Every look, every step, it all adds up to the start of the most phenomenal storyline
I just cannot get over either How tf she just walking can be such a great scene, bro
2ND BEST SHOW OF LAST YEAR AND WORTH THE 3 YEAR WAIT IN MY OPINION!
i couldn't explain to you how relatable she is in this first scene
BEYOND PERFECT SONG CHOICE, I LOVE THIS SCENE SO MUCH
Ok but the part of the song at 0:43 fits perfectly I love, the way he looks at her he still loves her
37 years to discover the power of Kate Bush
Lucas being the only one to notice Max speaks volumes after Episode 8, "I see you".
Beautiful song choice. We loved it then and still love it now. The fantastic Kate Bush.
I remember watching this scene the first time. It hit me in a soft spot. High school, I always had some music blasting in my ears to get me through the day. In a crowd of people, you can still feel so alone. I still sometimes have those days. I hope you all are having a beautiful day. Please, keep living.
When she looks at Lucas and the line in the song is “if I only could…”…

Missing LLucas, El has no connection to how Max is feeling.
This was once of of fave scenes. It was so smooth, and well put.
Just started season 4 and am bawling at this scene, goosebumps appeared at the first bars of the song😝
Same
Snap
I feel like if Max and El would’ve still been together in the same place, Max wouldn’t have gotten so depressed. She didn’t just lose Billy at the end of Season 3. When the Byers moved, she lost her closest female friend too.
0:39 hit with that stare

I love this scene and the transformation
Damn everyone discovered and caught onto the song during the Vecna scene. Meanwhile I thought this was a catchy banger the moment I heard it in this very first episode ahaha. Immediately looked it up.
So simple but beautiful!
so simple... (:
I wish I knew about this song in high school because I can totally relate to listening to a song while wandering the halls feeling unseen.
@0:06 fits so well.
sometimes i feel like max.. so iconic sadie and like a 90s kid i never hear about kate bush until now.. of course in love and obsessed with kate bush
This scene was amazing, lovely song choice
Great song and scene! This song takes me back to my days in college! I really wish that the music today exhibited an artists unique natural vocal ability. Too many artists sound the same today and use auto tune.
Check out Aurora, she has a beautiful unique voice. m.ruclips.net/video/d_HlPboLRL8/видео.html
The last sentence is 100% accurate. That’s why I have always and will always listen to 70s-90s music lol
Can’t you appreciate a song without speaking negatively of other songs? What was wrong with just saying “great song and scene!”
@MoyaBrennan6825 - It's the truth. The music today is awful. There's no unique natural signature vocal talent. Everyone wants to sing like each other and use autotune. It is just so sad.

this is why season 4 is my fav so far, all these cinematic flourishes
"Stranger Things" sounds kike a Kate Bush album title in the first place.
Woah there chill w the antisemitism.
@@czl09 wut?
@@czl09 I’m sure it was a typo
@@czl09 It's FUCKING OBVIOUS he meant to type 'like' you total tit.
Good point.
Max was literally me every time I went to school, listening to LINKIN PARK to help me cope and move on from my breakup. I don't want to talk about that.
One of my favorite scenes in this season.
She’s such a mood. I love Max in Season 4
This scene hit me hard
This was my first time hearing it. Immediately Shazammed & added it to my list. I knew. It’s a banger
Loving all the 80s tracks on season 4. This is pure class for its haunting melody and lyrics, if only I could make a deal with god to swap our places🥱 she’s missing Billy and would do anything for him. 😪. Then
There’s Falco rock me amadeus at the roller skate rink. I used to tape all these tracks and played them on my Walkman at 15. Best times ever.
this whole playlist fits the whole season like 😭💅
So I watched this a little later than most, but I know that Running Up that Bill played a big part, so when this scene came on I was like “oh! There it is, well that’s lovely I guess.” Not knowing what was coming later on 😭😭😭
It ended up being used for two of the biggest moments in this season
Little did I know when watching the first episode is how obsessed I would be with this song even to this day.
The chills.
This scene will live forever
Lucas still looking at her at 0:50
This video and this song so greatly synergies together ! ♥
can't beat this
Max in school: Walking down the hall
Max vs Vecna: Running up that hill
This scene😍
Yes.
This scene pretty much embodies the experience of walking down the halls in high school.
The second i heart this song at this scene, i knew i wanted it in my playlist lol
This is my favorite scene of season 4
i didn’t even make it to episode 4, right here was where i paused and downloaded this song 😂😂

Best series ever
As usual, they do a great job on transitions!
Cuando volví a ver la temporada por segunda vez esta escena me pegó mucho ❤️ quien sabría que está canción le iba a salvar la vida más tarde. Simplemente una obra de arte
The way Will tried to confront El and Max walking past Lucas is both chill and problems there
Im in love with the outfits
This is literally me walking to my dealers.
I can relate to this scene listening to Rock music helped me deal with everything
the transition from el to max! they need each other!!!!!
Yes! My thoughts exactly. I mentioned in my own comment a few minutes ago that El may have been able to help Max open up, and Max could’ve helped to teach El how to stand up for herself. They need their besties and it kills me to see them in so much pain 💔
The way she looks to everyone very emotional
Me gusta esta parte y del episodio 4 y 9🎵🎵
Poor El. Poor Max! POOR CHRISSY!! 😭
I'm still listen Kate bush when I walk in the street 😂
Max is me when I'm at university:")
900th sub!!!
Şaiq, when you posted this the other day, I didn't understand the significance of what is happening. I don't have Netflix or anything, so I thought
how cute Kate's music is being used. Had no idea she is freaking number one after 37 years all over the world, its insane.
If it wasn’t for Winona Ryder we wouldn’t have heard this song
Yep I’m in love with it!
I suspected she was behind it 😎
Anyone else listening to this song in headphones when walking around school?
Funny, I have been listening to this song and cloudbusting for a couple of months now since years. And now it pops up in stranger things
can't stop feedin on these all micro visual and audial (sweet) "thingies"... ♥ 4eva
Uma das minhas cenas favoritas!
Fav ❤️
The part where Max expressed her hatred towards Billy's father was very satisfying.
I want this song to play while im returning to school
I watched that episode last night
0:16 thats me still coming up on work like that after al those. I think Max is going throug trauma like ptsd or something.
Me too
Kids today word of advice, ditch your iPhones / cells whatever you generations call them today. Go outside to play man hunt… go play hide and go seek.

It is the best feeling. Feeling free… that’s what this song is all about
God damn this is me. Didn’t think I would ever relate to a tv show so much.
something up with guidance counsellor.
government agent /russian spy ish.
She might have some connection with Vecna. Victor Creel mentioned an angel that turned out to be bad.
weird how i only just noticed she was looking at the things she missed the best friends, happy couple and lucas
I’m really hoping eleven and max have a lot of scenes together in season 5
He's absolutely rocking that flat top
I am going to get 80s Hip hop stranger things if this goes on
Lifesaving song 🙃
Thanks
Kate song is a great song they should also include ASHES TO ASHES from David Bowie in Stranger things or A Forest by
The Cure or Dear God by XTC.
I love strangerthing Iam big fan
This Scene So Impact Because Of Max El And Kate Bush
love Kate Bush but check out=
Bo Bruce , the voice UK bbc version " running up that hill" the 2.09 minute her version is amazing too ❤👍
Is this scene the first time this song appears in this series?
Yes (:
Haha that my favorite song that is cool haha
She just like me fr
The First it was really shocking cause days before this season came out I tweeted that the song should be in Stranger Things
Netflix and the duffer brothers only did us wrong by not giving us more Happy ElMax scenes🥺
How do I save vid for edit on apple ipad???
