Also she has a song that is definitely about wanting to gently caress a yeti. No, I will not be taking any questions. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uhh1KbeKr4M

How about Angra, a Metal band, covering Wuthering Heights? Singer is a dude. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Qrtf43qANkE I like it much better than the original. Also I really like her album Aerial, it‘s really something else.

Ror posted:If you're over 30 and you're never heard of this "Kate Bush" character, yes you might be out of touch. I guess out of touch with late 20th century pop music specifically, but even if you don't listen to music at all I would expect you to have heard her name. She's very famous. Ok. Late 20th tho? Not early 21st? My wife hadn't heard of her either, maybe it's kind of regional. I'll listen to her top tracks Ah! Uk chart topper from 78. Kinda makes sense I could miss that

This time by Australian pub band Mr. Floppy. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-ZjhMDPzlfs It is a silly pisstake of a song. I think it is fun. The album it is from is called "The Unbearable Lightness of Being a Dickhead", so they don't take themselves too seriously.

Here's a live version of Running Up That Hill with David Gilmour playing the synth part on guitar. But the real reason to watch is bassist's (Tony Franklin) hair. Just amazing in its 80s excessiveness in ways I never imagined. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W5wc1R0AQ_M

Kate Bush is excellent. Just so many cool, weird songs. And then she didn't release an album for like 12 years and then released Aerial, which was extremely good. Violin has a ripping solo in it. Also it is a song about the violin

The first half of Hounds of Love is quite exquisite and accessible, I think the main videos have all been posted except for the title track, which also slays. What is Running Up That Hill actually about? I feel like the "it doesn't hurt me" is like her explaining to a lover that sex doesn't hurt or something, or maybe her period? I dunno, I could never really figure it out.

Swapping lives with another person to understand your partner by making a deal with God. Deal with God was the working title I believe but the label was unsure if radio stations would play a title with God in it.

I took it as a war time nurse literally "seeing how deep the bullet lies" and "tearing asunder" lamenting that she can't go into battle "up that hill" herself because of gender roles.

No one hits that same tone and urgency in it for me. Meg Meyers gets closest but still lets me down on the "come on baby, come on darling" part. I was actually gonna bust into this thread and say I really like the placebo version and they make it sound like a placebo song.

I got into Kate Bush by listening to Pat Benatar’s version of Wuthering Heights in like 1980, it’s not a bad cover at all, but I don’t think it adds anything to the original. https://youtu.be/MnDijNVpngA

So I listen to Running Up That Hill all the time, but I’ve never seen the video for it. Until now. That was so loving cool. She is one of the coolest people to have ever existed imo.

I only ever got into Hounds of Love. you can recommended another one if you want, just never got around to it. one cool thing that i learned relatively recently is that Kate is the person who sings" jeux sans frontier/she's so popular" in Games Without Frontiers. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=95SWMqzM_Sg

No one hits that same tone and urgency in it for me. Meg Meyers gets closest but still lets me down on the "come on baby, come on darling" part. I feel like the Meg Myers version is literally just trying to recreate the original in every particular; I can't point to anywhere in her cover that diverges from the script. Which means it's also great and I enjoy it, but it's like a print of the original painting and not quite as good as a result (unless someone were to inexplicably dislike Kate Bush's voice, I guess). Also, I don't love the Chromatics cover, but I did appreciate the Twin Peaks revival introducing me to the Chromatics. Always down for more ethereal lady vocalists for my late-night highway drive playlist.
