Kate Bush is pure feminine energy in a very powerful being. There was nobody like her at the time, in fact there weren't many women auteurs in 1978, she was something of a pioneer by having full artistic control over her music, videos & staging. Surely a genius.

Indeed - there still isn't anyone like her to this day. Completely unique, all the talent, timeless - one of the few that could genuinely be classified as a genius.

Couldn't agree more Singing Bee, ooops I mean Lavender Bee. KB is a remarkable artist that transcends every kind of musical genre. For me she also represents the essence of femininity.

There could only be one Kate Bush. Many artists tried to be like her but every single one failed. Every single one. God made this beautiful creature called Kate and gave her to us.

I remember vividly the first time I heard this on the radio, back in 1978. I stood transfixed, unable to believe what I was hearing. Not just the unique sound, but at the thought that a 19 yo could write such a song. It was so far ahead of its time. And it introduced me to the genius that is Kate, who has been an essential part of my life ever since.

Kate Bush manages to both bring back toxic maculinity's sex drive and women empowerment at the same time. God bless

Ah, what a nostalgy! Her face expressions... she really is a ghost calling his Heathcliff. - And, yes, you should read the book. :) It is a classic.

First Kate Bush song I ever heard. I was a 17 year old book nerd in absolute stunned amazement that someone had written a song from the standpoint of Cathy's ghost. It still makes my nerd self so friggin' happy.

Kate was 16 when she sang this , this song has made Kate to be the only British female artist to write, produce and perform a number one single ,and no one has beaten her yet, amazing,I've loved her and her music since day one .

philip jackson You're thinking of "Man With The Child In His Eyes". This was actually recorded in August '77. She turned 19 in July.

Outside of science I can't think of a better example of a genius than Kate Bush. I'm a metal head and rarely play her stuff .. but I know a genius when I hear it. Kate Bush is that rare thing. Cheers 🍺

That innocence is real. Kate Bush was 19 when this song was released. Phenomenal.

Your facial expressions says it all. You should read the book to get the references in this video. Classic. Great job, man. Regards from Brazil.

She is singing as the ghost calling to her husband who is still alive as she is at the window. It is from the novel Wuthering Heights.

Close, but not right. She never married Heathcliffe though they were soulmates. That’s part of the torment of this tragic tale. Both married other people though they were still obsessed with each other.

I am sure that Kate Bush would be enchanted by your reaction! Watching your emotions pass across your face is poetry in itself!

Kate Bush is my favorite artist ever, but I only found her 12 or so years ago. This was the first song I heard and her voice was just.. haunting. I could not get it out of my head, and then I listened to her music album by album and was just in awe. She is incredible.

I remember seeing this on early MTV and just being mesmerized by her. Of course as a young teenage male who listened to Sabbath and Priest I really didn't share this with my buddies at the time but man I was hooked.

And of course, Kate played the piano wonderfully on the song.

Thank you UK for giving us such an absolute outstanding music artist and treasure!

"Wuthering Heights"! Yes, this song by Kate Bush has a phenomenal energy, and the lyrics of the song are quite enigmatic, but very thought-provoking for those who don't know Emily Bronte's eponymous novel. Perfect is the adjective for this combination of singer, song, lyrics, interpretation, arrangement and performance in the video. One of the most beautiful things ever released on the world music scene; visceral! Congratulations on the choice and the analysis too.

It's a shame that most people nowadays have no idea what "Wuthering Heights" is or the story behind the song.

I agree..once read this song means a lot more

I loved your reactions! The book is not for everybody - for one it's complicated from a narrative perspective. There is an unreliable narrator so we never actually hear Catherine's voice. And the second thing is it is quite unnerving because it doesn't have a happy ending. You feel irritation for the characters and their choices. But it is the closest thing to real life and the complexity of the human character. I would reccomend the film version with Tom Hardy and Charlotte Riley. It was so intense and passionate they ended up falling in love and marrying in real life.

Luke u falling like heathcliff brother

I LOVE THIS SONG I REMEMBER MY YOUTH, KATE BUSH IS AN PERFECT SINGER. 👏👏🇧🇷

We need more Kate Bush reactions !!! ❤🧎‍♀️

I'm age 43 and heard this one here for the first back in 1998.This song here represents the end of the disco era in the late 1970's.It was released in Jan-1978 and hit the roof on the Bilboard charts for most of 1978.

So happy to see a reaction of Kate Bush that is just pure amazement rather than harsh judgement. You're facial expressions were mine when I first heard this song. Just at a loss for words and stunned at how anyone could have a song or music like this. She is by far my favorite artist and she isn't even of my time.

Your reaction was awesome beyond words . Your face told it all. I’m an Iron Maiden fanatic so this music is out of my normal scope. I came across this video by chance and I was totally and I mean totally blown away. Her incredible voice. Her dance her looks, the lyrics and story content. Wow, absolutely incredible. This is the most beautiful song I’ve ever heard in my entire life. She is simply from another realm. A portal to a previous existence from the spirit world . I have no words really. Simply phenomenal .

Kate Bush is a total artist, almost a separate galaxy. I'm glad that she gains new listeners, still having faithful believers:)

Surely she is not from this world

For some reason i love the part where she goes "Wuthering, Wuthering, Wuthering Heights."

I used to work in a night club during my late teens and twenties, called the Hip-e Club, during the 90s and 00s. After I heard this song, it was the only one I requested off the dj on regular occasions. Never could I remember who sang it, or what the title was, no matter how many times he told me. I'd ask for 'It's me, Kathy'. 😄 Sorcery, this song.

At last someone who does their research well done my man . she's the ghost .. I respect you for your looking into things

I would also recommend the "red dress" version which I prefer over this one, mainly cause I saw it first so it stuck with me

absolutely love your reactions, so terrific that Millenials love her! She is a one off. I recommend her songs 'The Sensual World' and 'The Fog,' they are absolute masterpieces in my opinion

Pure hypnotic beauty.

Love Kate Bush, she´s my fav. I follow her since 1978 :-) I have even seen her face to face back in 1997.

Kate’s magical isn’t she. She exudes the femininity of the 70’s. I’ll never forget watching her on Countdown on a Sunday night, then hopping on the school bus next morning ready to imitate her dance (red dress version). I bought the single and have loved her inventive work with keyboards ever since.

I am absolutely obsessed with this song, loved your reaction!

This wasn't even going to be on her debut album. Then one night there was a full moon and she decided to write it.

The Goddess of Art Rock claims another victim

She was so adorable.

Kate was and she´ll be a truly artist of soul

Totally in love when I first heard this, it never went away.

Your face mate, it's a picture. You've fallen under the captivating spell of Kate same as I did many years ago. There's no escape, you learn to live with it.

You're cute! You're mesmerised! She is brilliant and I've loved this since it came out.

Beautiful reaction! We were all completely haunted by this song and this artist when it came out. I am still under Kate's spell!

This song was my first experience of kate I was 17/18 bought the 12" version and i was hooked I have loads of kate bush still relivent to me now.......

maverick historian I have this one, plus the Japanese release. There are also U.S. and Canadian versions, but the previously mentioned are my favourites.

I missed her concert in Hammersmith in 2014, as I was on a flight to Amman on that particular day.

in the 80s she released another version of the song singing with a slightly deeper voice. It´s on the greatest hits album.

On Kate Bush the inside story CD her greatest hits there's an even better and longer remastered version Kate Bush is so beautiful you could have a sculptor make her into a miniature size and put her on a music box and let it play while she dances around it great reaction my man one of the best reactions I've ever seen your face tells it all look forward to seeing more of your actions my man

me watching your face during the reaction: yup, that's a celebrity crush

After finishing this recording the producer remarked 'now I have peaked'. I can understand his sentiment at that time.

Your in love, as we all were in the seventies when we first heard her sing.

Love Kate Bush!

I really enjoy that so young man is listening to this masterpiece.

She projects an innocent sensuality rather than sexual provocation. And you are right about those eyes. There are many sides to her - See her portray a woman driven to madness by her lust for revenge. Well that is how I read it: Wedding List kzread.info/dash/bejne/Yq2h2smMZLuugqQ.html

Cathy is a ghost and Heathcliff is her great love. Based in Wuthering Heights (1847) novel written by Emily Bronté.

I remember this song from the early 80's it made me feel weird and intreagued and scared. The barber shop I used to go to in Scotland where I lived had pictures of Kate all over the wall n the barber Robert had long wavy hair so as you can imagine the experience of having a short back n sides was a particularly unusual one bbbrrrrt

Great vid - loved your reactions - I think your reaction may have been quite calm compared to a lot of men in the 1970s...! 😁 Kate Bush was and is iconic - an amazing musical talent. There isn't anyone like her - maybe PJ Harvey, or Bjork, but Kate is in a class of her own... ❤️

dramatic soprano doesn't mean a soprano who sings high, or is dramatic, it means a really heavy, full bodied voice that sings in the soprano range, like the kind you'd find in a Wagner Opera. Kate Bush sings high because her range is soprano, but she has a very light and fluid tone. she's a lyric soprano

She's delightful.

I’ve loved her forever. Welcome to the adventure.

I was introduced to KB by a friend. Her greatest hits album in the early 1980s. Her zanyness and variety drew me in. A genius.

I love this music and her interpretation.. thanks for reacting to her!❤

Hey dude, I’m a new French subscriber of your channel and I love your reaction, you should start your Mylene farmer journey… lot of French people who follow you, she is huge and loved here in France, you should start with « avant que l’ombre… live Bercy 2006”. Have a great one 😎

She's a genius. Please react to Peter Gabriel featuring Kate Bush, "Don't Give Up"

Thanx for reaction...I am near 57 years old...and I`m absolute Metal Fan and play guitar....but Kate Bush for me is not a type of music...this hole woman with her songs and videos is ART!

She was only 19 I think when she made this video. Love her

Her and David Bowie had lessons with Lindsay Kemp. He was involved in movement etc. He died recently check his work out

It's a great book. Unrequited love and tragedy sums it up really but the ghost of Catherine plays an important role in the story. Kate's interpretation of this is so haunting beautiful it sometimes give me chills.

A MAJOR TEAR-JERKER NOT TO MENTION EXTREMELY BEAUTIFUL!!

great reaction mister!!!!

he ends up looking like the village idiot, like so many of us back in the day.

Em 1991 , creio eu, vi dois amigos comparando Lisa Stanfield e Kate Bush, com deboches à Kate, porque o som do momento era da Lisa! Nada contra A Lisa, mas para os desinformados do passado e de hoje, Kate é um fenômeno impossível de se repetir! Ela nasceu com um dom e não é nenhuma produção do passado ou do momento que irá se comparar com seu talento único! Viva Kate Bush, musa, inspiradora, artista, cantora, bailarina e de um fenomenal talento! Sem palavras para descrever! Não se pode comparar!

she was amazing!

yes, you have a nice expression. when youlisten this song of Kate Bush..!you going soft...! good !

Love Yr reaction to this song you was really into this

She is beautiful, right? 😉Kate Bush, is one hekk of a lady. Woooow

Souljar Ian Bairnson on lead guitar. Dave later played on "Rocket's Tail" and "Love and Anger" 1989. Plus backing vocals on "Pull Out The Pin" 1982.

Not Gilmour on that solo. It was Ian Bairnson (from The Alan Parsons Project) who recorded the studio version. On her concert tour, Alan Murphy played the solo. David Gilmour discovered Kate when she was 15 and put up the money for her to record 3 demos of her songs that he picked out, and got her signed with EMI. He later recorded background vocals for her on the song "Pull Out The Pin" from The Dreaming album. Gilmour played guitar on two tracks ("Love And Anger" and "Rockets Tail") from The Sensual World album. They also performed together live a few times (at the Amnesty International Secret Policeman's Ball 3 charity concert, where they did "Running Up That Hill," and Kate appeared at one of Gilmour's solo concerts where she performed "Comfortably Numb" with him).

She's Amazing ❤

Pls, check out the internationally celebrated annual event: The Most Wuthering Heights Day Ever.

If she just stood at the mic and sang like Edith Piaf it would still be a great song. But the dance, the moves, the eyes (!!) the whole thing. The camera work is of its age, it uses its technology to reinforce she's a ghost. It totally captures the essence (I think) of the character and the ghost out on the moors. It captures that the character isn't all one way, she's impetuous and made wrong choices (in some of Kate Bush's performances there's a childishness to some of the lyrics which again I think connect to the selfishness and immaturity of the character in her life) but comes back to her one true love, wandering on the moors as a ghost trying to get in through the window. Is there anything better than this? Who can you compare Kate Bush to? In truth, no one. She's her own artist, did her own art form in voice and dance and the whole thing is just wonderful.

thank you ...you can coment Mylène farmer, French singer!

Sorry it her greatest hits album is Kate Bush the whole story not the inside story That's Kate Bush the whole story her greatest Hits on CD hasn't even better version a longer version that's remastered also and sounds different

Dude, the face you make watching her is basically the same face any normal heterosexual man would make. During this period, Kate Bush was, without any doubts, one of the most beautiful woman in the music industry bar none.

i was 12 when this first came out , fell for her head line and sinker try this one love her appreciation of session musicians on this one this cover of Gershwin is so smouldering on her part and genuine in giving her fellow artists time on the video kzread.info/dash/bejne/hJ-NxaZme8udaNI.html
