whatwasthatsong: Actually, Wuthering Heights was written by Bronte, and has been around since before Any of us was born, and This song was written way before that Dalton MFtv mess was ever aired, but Kates voice is like a bird, and I just liked the song, dont be so critical, music is to be enjoyed, not picked apart :))) M dwarfish: In an interview, Kate said she based the song on something she saw on BBC. Its sad, I know.
That guitar solo at the end takes you places across the lands and over the seas
This was from 1979. The video is called Kate Bush Live At Hammersmith Odeon.
This is one of my favourite Kate moments. I just melt when she gets all emotional at the end...
@dwarfish The BBC program inspired the song, but she stated many times she read through the Bronte novel completely before a single verse was written.
Thank you for the comment. I'm glad everyone enjoys this... now if we could just convince her to tour again...
what year is this performance? is the video available?
This sounds like it is a lovesong from Satan to God
