*Kate Bush Surely Defined Experiemental Music for the 80's Pop-Songwriter Scene!* Which song from her iconic album 'Hounds of Love' was your favourite of favourites?

Cloudbusting followed by RUTH....But honestly I love all of her music and this was an excellent documentary and I'm glad you used actual Kate music. I enjoyed the last thing you did on Kate awhile back and would love to see something on The Tour Of Life and why there was never even to this day and official record or filmed version as you think there would. Also a doccy on Toyah would not go amiss either!

Hounds of Love from Side 1 and Hello Earth from the Ninth Wave

People try to describe Kate in words, but it is impossible. Those who understand how unique, exceptional, and musically genius she is, don't need words. You just cry when you hear her music. I was moved beyond words when I heard Hounds of Love when I was a teenager in the 80s. I'm 51 now and still cry when I hear her music. Knowing the kind of person she is also brings tears into my eyes. The only woman worth crying over.

Kate Bush saved my sanity, my creativity, and occasionally her music has saved my life.

The Dreaming is still one of my all time favorite pieces of Kates work!!! 😊

Nobody, for me, since Joni Mitchell, ever made such visually evocative and imaginative word pictures set to such incredible music. I remember the first time I played Hounds of Love, it completely blew me away, I think I wore out three vinyl copies inside a year. There's never been an artist even remotely like Kate, she's incredibly unique and rare, almost like a visitor from another dimension but oh so human. Amazingly committed to her music and art, singular in her vision, I love that she has always just basically done Kate, never followed trends, never cared about charting singles much, never cared about being a celebrity. I salute you Kate!

i had forgotten somewhat how great it is. album of the decade with a lot of heady competition. but yeah. me too. i cried when i first heard it. only beethoven could do that. also... the dreaming was no failure, but fantastic.

One of my all time favorites period; male or female.

So pleased that I managed to see her in that first concert at the Hammersmith Odeon. Not knowing she’d never do another for so many years.

I love all the aspects of Kate Bush, she was a true original and massively creative who followed her muse come hell or highwater. As an American fan, she was considered a cult artist and wasn't well known. I had the good fortune of seeing her on Saturday Night Live in 1978, she ensorcelled me for life at that moment.

Brilliant gorgeous Kate

The most self effacing, humble yet unbelievably talented artist of her generation, as a kid I found her music almost scary at times but as I grew older it hit me on so many different levels and This Woman's Work can still get me blubbering whenever I hear it, also an amazing role model for any young artist on how to stay true to your art in the face of industry and media pressure

A masterpiece from Kate.

Don't Give Up with Peter Gabriel and Running Up That Hill from The Whole Story were my intro to Kate Bush living in Oklahoma were English progressive or alternative never touched our radio airwaves. It took MTV to expose me to this wonderful ethereal voice. After settling in and listening to Kate for a few years This Woman's Work and Cloudbursting are my favorites. I'm so glad her storytelling was able to be told visually as well as musically or else due to my geography I would have never heard of her or seen her in concert on tour.

I only know of Running up That Hill. This Album seems Way ahead of it's time for 1985. Definitely something different to listen to in this era, I'm even starting to like her voice. Very original.

Kate Bush has always produced music for the grown ups. It's only as a mature, experienced adult that you can truly appreciate her work and what it's all about. One thing it definitely isn't, is chart pap for teenies. That's why she has always stood out from the common herd.

@@ferdiemiddleton8910 Kate is a true artist because she makes her art for herself. If other people like it, great, if they don't, I don't think she is all that bothered overall, although I'm sure EMI was. Most filmmakers, writers, songwriters, musicians equate their art being great by number of units sold. Sometimes the public actually supports great art, there are plenty of top selling albums that were amazing artistic achievements that happened to have hit a chord and sold extremely well. But often the public is ignorant, as they were about The Dreaming, which is unequivocally a great work of art that didn't sell or hit a chord with the public at all. In pop music, often the public is clueless or too swayed by fad to focus in on a musical work that is great.

Back then it was Running up that hill and later even more Cloudbusting that fascinated me. I also had both Maxi-Vinyls. And the video with Donald Sutherland is still one of my favourites. But for me as a 16yo The Ninth Wave was a bit to artifical. It actually took me another 5 years when I finally got the CD. And my adolecent me started to love the suite. And the title track found its way through the trees to my heart.

Kate is a goddess!

This is the first time I have seen this documentary. Kate Bush changed my life from Wuthering Heights and release by release she improved on that, then there was the gap, then Hounds of Love. This genius is worth waiting for and her career shows to me that sticking to your guns is always best artistically. People will remember Kate Bush for as long as music exists ♥️

CK was introduced to Kate through, "The Dreaming." Was blown away by the photo, played the album and thought, "There's a lot going on with this girl." Explored the rest of her catalog, and the rest, as they say, is history.

Personally The Dreaming is my favorite of her albums, Hounds of Love is a perfect album

I agree. "Sunset" from that album is by far my favourite. Should have been a single, with a dramatic video.

She was a breath of fresh air for this, at the time, 25 year old, suffering through the agony of the disco & punk era, The Ramones being the one exception. 'The Kick Inside' was my first listen & immediately fell in love. Still am in love with 'The Girl With "Wow!' In Her Eyes'.

Great documentary, thanks, one of the best albums of the 80's. I have to say though this was ruined by too many ads.

1:25:30 Right. When I hear the whole suite, ending with The Morning Fog, it seems that everything before that point is a dream. It seems a lot like The Pros And Cons of Hitchhiking, which in fact came out about a year before.

I am slightly puzzled that the people speaking in this documentary seem to have difficulty decoding Watching You Without Me. Her narrator is the ghost, is one of a couple who died and is in a room with her/his loved one unable to communicate. A very similar topic comes up in This Woman's Work again, only turned up to eleven in emotional impact. A beautiful yet extremely painful to listen to song.

@kiwi-to1xk

The story behind "Watching You Without Me, during the story of "The Ninth Wave,the song in question is about the woman at sea traveling back to her family in spirit and watching them in their family home, where she should be,but not being able to communicate with them.i guess you could call it astral traveling,in a sense.but the character is definitely not dead.

I'm surprised at the criticism directed at The Dreaming album. For me, KB has been the "female Peter Gabriel" and that album really proves the point, or the way I see it. You can take a car ride with both KB The Dreaming and PG's 3rd album "Melt" and both blend very well.

dave gilmour knows artistry

Hello Earth is unbelievably gorgeous.

Kate was great ! She set the template of what a singer should be .Although pretty ,she never traded on her sex .Her skills have yet to be equalled ..

Bless you ❤

Forever Kate bush ❤❤❤❤❤

Awesome!

.....Side 2 hasn't ever been IMMEDIATELY apparent as SO dark thematically; there's a REMARKABLE, almost Ambrose Bierce-like 'Owl Creek Bridge' quality to it (evoked in a 'LOST episode as well) as if the protagonist was having an out-of-body experience, or lucidly dreaming back to a childhood on land.....

I absolutely love Kate. 💜

.....though accompanying a VERY anachronistic rhythm, "The Big Sky" shows off Kate's '70's influences MAGNIFICENTLY; hear it as a companion piece of sorts to Chi Coltrane's 1972 smash "Thunder And Lightning" (to which Brits are NO strangers) and NOT far removed from Laura Nyro's collaboration with LaBelle (or of course, JONI; early 1974's "Help Me" could arguably BE a Bush composition) around that time, either - while as for Reich and "Cloudbusting" his, Royal Raymond Rife's VITALLY-important work was actually CO-OPTED by Rock'er agencies to among OTHER things, facilitate machinations of THESE past three years: HIGHLY recommend exploring them both further.....

I always preferred the ninth wave section over the first side. I loved Waking the Witch and the haunting feel of it.

Kate is genius

A unique all-round musician very different from others.

It's the BEST

Suggestions for future videos please: Bauhaus Rush Van Halen from 77 thru 80 Toyah Devo The Ramones The Great Rock and Roll Swindle film The Monkees covering the formation as well as the movie HEAD and a second part on Mike Nesmith and such albums as Pisces, Aquarius and Jones Adam and The Ants Sisters of Mercy The Wax Trax record label bands such as Ministry and Front 242 and Revco

What is the version of Hounds of Love used in the intro?

A lot of people thought she was a bit weird at the time I was 9 years old when wuthering heights came out and hated it but I hated I feel love by Donna summer too as both on radio constantly and I've never liked the charts as I'd rather choose what I want to listen to, any how love both the songs I've mentioned having listened to them again years later, a lot of music grows on you with time but I can't say the same about today's so called music, kids are being cheated and you'll notice there hasn't been a music scene since rave culture started over 30 years ago and nor will there be popular music has run it's course I really can't see anywhere else for it to go, I listen to psychedelic rock from bands around before I was even born in 1969, so open the back catalogues people there is some amazing years old music already made well better than today's music and real talent too, kids who've taken they're time to learn there instruments and being a guitar player I know personally how difficult it is to learn and the dedication it takes. No auto tune in them days only reality and better for it, Bob Dylan could barely sing remember if you've got heart your already there.

Lionheart should have been given more time for orchestration and production. There was nothing wrong with the songwriting or the performances. In some ways it was a more cohesive album as one solid work than the debut which was a diverse collection of songs written over several years. Lionheart is her most underrated release.

Excellent album, but for me, her greatest will always be 'The Kick Inside'. THAT was popular music's quantum leap.

Rudy Giuliani played drums for Kate Bush? Wow, that dude has been everywhere...

❤

you could've edited out the ads

Actually this was a double album so the premise is false. Back when this was released CDs were a thing but LPs and tapes were the main distro media which allowed for a double album release on a singe media item. It was "Hounds of Love" and "Ninth Wave".

Jig Of Life for me.

Greatest British artist since Shakespeare. Ok, maybe Beckett...

Unfortunately she transferred her works on an indipendent label recently and she reissued her past production in very expensive records and about her hypothetical future new future work it will be very hard to purchase easily without a certain effort both about the price and places where to buy it

Re The Morning Fog: could Kate Bush be referring to fear, obligation and guilt?

Great retrospective, except Annie Lennox won the Brit in 86

I know this is a bit irrelevant, but I just feel the need to point out that mixers like this Mackie did not even exist in the 1980s. I should know, I helped build them.

For me ifrom 1st to fourth Baby!! The Dreaming Hounds of Love The Sensual World The Red Shoes! The rest are just kinda Blah!! Except for LIVE "Jame and The Cold Gun"!
