RIP, Del Palmer - a great musician and engineer who was integral in shaping the sound of Kate's music

What other person could have "pause for the jet", followed by the sound of a jet, in their song and it be perfectly okay? Yes its a fun and expressive song.

So to sum up...Kate Bush is a genius.

No doubt

Great memories - you can see me at the front of the “stage” towards the end. The music was pumping while this was being recorded - took you over completely. Kate gave us all “Big Sky” branded lighters (mine still works) to wave at one point. Trouble is they quickly got red hot. Became a test of loyalty how long you could keep your lighter lit for. This was on the second day of recording for the video - won’t ever forget it. Kate over indulged slightly and needed some time out while this was being recorded,

Hi Beth and thanks a lot for this from the incomparable Kate Bush. She called this one her getting drunk songs from this album. because she talked about getting drunk in order to do the freestyle ad libs at the end (the other was the wonderful 'Waking the Witch.' Now if you were to do an analysis of 'Hello Earth' from this album you would be giving a gift to the world - for her performance on that song is just spellbinding. Thanks again for this.

Oh my gosh, I LOVE "Hello Earth". Yes I hope Beth covers that one!

Absolutely agree! Waking the witch is a stunning track as well, but hello Earth is just spell binding.

The Hounds of Love album was that rare combination: both an artistic and a commercial triumph. Her masterpiece.

Very interesting. I’ve heard of Kate Bush and even a reference to Wuthering Heights, but knew nothing. Now I need to go on a treasure hunt! Thanks for introducing her to me. MB

"The Dreaming" is her best album, to me. I would start there if not her first album. She's really the kind of artist that you'll understand better if you listen to her albums chronologically. ❤

@@mysticmerman I would say The Dreaming is her most creative album, Kate at her most adventurous and free. But not necessarily the best place for a Kate newbie to begin. It's more of a master class in Kate Bush.

Kate almost always did her own background vocals. At least until she used the Trio Bulgarka on her Sensual World album. I like it when she uses 4 or 5 different voices within one song, such as Suspended In Gaffa. Can't go wrong with Kate. By the way, have you reacted to Peter Gabriel and her duet music video for Don't Give Up?

Back in the eighties and nineties Kate was in a league of her own. From 'Song of Solomon' she sings 'Dont want your bullshit. Just want your sexuality. Write me your poetry in motion'. And in the Sensual World when she paraphrases Molly Blooms soliloquay from James Joyces Ulysses 'And then I took a kiss of seedcake back from your mouth. Going deep south going down. With six big wheels we'll roll our bodies out off Howth Head and into the flesh. You said I was a flower of the mountains. Yes. But now I have the power of a womans body. She really was way ahead of the curve.

Thanks for doing this. I love Kate Bush and this song. Your analysis is amazing!

Viva Kate Bush! ❤

This is one of my favorite songs off one of my favorite albums by one of my favorite artists. Kate is an actual creative genius! The REAL deal!

I enjoyed your analysis of that one from the incredible Kate Bush. I think Kate is probably quite a challenge for vocal coaches to analyse given the extent of what she can do and how far she diverges from the norm.

Great, entertaining analysis of a brilliant and highly original artist! Thank you.

Kate Bush is in my top 5 vocalists of all time. Such a unique, expressive and versatile voice that very few artists can emulate.

Pure genius vocally, and a supremely gifted song writer.

I love her little effect at 3:37. It reminds me of the Diva Dance from the Fifth Element movie.

I'm wearing my Kate Bush tshirt today btw ,, this is a killer song

Your best review yet (made easier and difficult at the same time by the amazing voice and production of Kate Bush!). You could get away with a 1 hour version of just this one of her songs.

Great reaction Beth! I think many people don't 'get' Kate, but once you do that can of worms is open forever. If I could afford to Patreon you I would, but in hope I would love you to review Army Dreamers by Kate Bush please.

There really aren't words to describe how special she is.

Thank you, Beth! I have been a massive fan of Kate Bush for many years. I still remember going out and buying the, "Hounds of Love" album, when it was first released in 1985. Please can I also put a recommendation in for you to look at some of Laura Marling's material. Perhaps the official video for "All My Rage" might be a good place to start. I honestly believe Laura to be the best female singer and songwriter to have come out of the UK since Kate Bush.

Love this song. Thanks for this ! You should listen to "Get out of my House" from 'The Dreaming " album.

Could do this with nearly every song on that album. Kate's vocals on that record are insane.

That was fun listening to your analysis and obvious joy reacting to this amazing song and artist! Bravo!

So glad you discussed some of Kate's techniques. She's one of 3 favorite female vocalist: Kate Bush Johnette Napolitano Beth Roars!

nice! so cool to see you geek out about her! she's a complete original artist in all she does!

I love this song and the way it transforms into a full-on rock number. It also has one of the most varied vocal performances by Kate in terms of styles - she's throwing everything in there at the end.

Love your description of Kate as a painter of sound. But when you mention layers and complexity with subtle expression (true of Bush) I think if Genesis, both with Peter or Phil. Impressionists. (love Kate's creative, tongue-in-cheek sense of humor)

RIP Del Palmer. A huge part of Kate's sound.

@@Missjunebugfreak I do concur. Bjork can also scream. I love when women singers scream. It's just as exciting when male rock singers do it.

#2 on my Kate Bush list (Wuthering Heights in at #1 obviously), just love this track, the vibe, very catchy. The video rocks! The “cloud looks like Ireland” helped push it up the Irish charts, no doubt. :D

Yes! This is her best vocal delivery. It's truly fearless, especially toward the end. The other songs on this album get all the attention, but "Big Sky" deserves some of it. I'm joining your channel now! 😂

The Fairlight synth was named after a hydrofoil ferry in Sydney that the maker used to see out of his window. The ferry was probably named after the Fairlight homestead in Sydney, which in turn was probably named after Fairlight, a village in East Sussex, UK. The software piracy group Fairlight got its name from the synth... or a C64 game which got its name from the village...

Wow this song is insanely complex! Love it

Kate Bush is a true artist.

Really enjoyed this, thank you for your expertise and enthusiasm.

Kate is my all-time favourite artist, and I love this song. Thanks for the great reaction!

First of all, love it when you analyse my fav artists haha Second of all, it's so wonderful to see you happy and enjoying your work haha Third of all, keep it going Beth, you're sucs a sweetheart and teaching us valuable information around compositions and singing techniques, really love it ❤

Thank you for choosing this song! I don't know why this is not more well known, I think it could be massively popular in any age, just like "Running Up That Hill" became. Lorde clearly borrowed from this song in "Green Light", and I say good for her.

Thank You for the lesson/I heard her first Album many years ago-then-nothing until now--One of her songs was a soundtrack for some TV thing.

God i love this track. A top 10 album of all time for me. ❤

There are not enough surpurlitves for Kate Bush! I've been a fan since her 1st album.

Vocals!! No one sings like Kate Bush. The Meteorologicial mix of this is my fave track of all time. Kate just lets rip with her vocals. Incredible. Great review too! Thanks.

Somewhere I thought I read that she used her sampling board to sample her own voice and add it in so that she could be her own backing vocalist... I may have that mixed up with someone else, but I frequently hear backing vocals in Kate Bush's songs that sound like her herself... Might have imagined that or it might be someone else completely....

Kate Bush is definitely her own backing vocalist on this so you might be right!

I almost never listen to single tracks from this album- I treat it like a Pink Floyd album- in it's entirety or not at all... same with Lennox Diva or Peter Gabriel (first four albums- #3 my fave). Love Kate's voice, her songs, and above all else, this album...

I just realised the the traditional Tarzan scream is actually a yodel. He is yodeling through the jungle.

Genius work!!!

I was turned on To Kate Bush by a dorm mate in college back in the day when she was putting stuff out. She did have a way of making complexity sound great. Some time it can be just over load and busy. I didn't know how involved she was in the technology her self, amazing. Good recording equipment used to only the in the hands of a few major labels but now many more people have access to it. Another great reaction, thanks.

Mi H. Prrj ❤no sé mucho de música pero supongo que es música retro bella época bien Beth 👏👏🍀🍀

Fantastic analysis of my favourite singer. Please react to Moments of Pleasure.

Two artists in the 80's - I bought their albums Unheard. I saw they had a new album out and I snatched it off of the stands and bought it. Kate Bush was one. The Cocteau Twins was the other.

She is definitely cut from the same cloth as artists like Peter Gabriel. She is a talented artist.

Learned to appreciate her. Much more into the band era of the 70's-80's when she came out. Liked but wasn't crazy about. Duly chastised. 👍

Always waiting in anticipation for your reactions. Can you please react to, Ren's new song? The name of the song is "Fred Again Mash-up". Cheers.

Totally different sonic spectrum but you can see why i thought of Kate when I saw the younger Diana Ankudinova perform. Painting 🖌️🎨 with sound ... an excellent description of kates work then theres the whole theatrical dance aspect to her work. A uniquely creative artist... yet she was almost lost to the newer generations using her pioneering techniques. Untill they used one of her early hits in a cult TV show.... bang shes back with a new audiences and old fans.. So much good music 🎶 from one very quiet lady 😎😉🧙‍♂️

Beth thank you for your videos, I really enjoy watching them...Maybe some minute you can react to Karen Dalton.

Con mis respetos deberías reaccionar a "un dia de domingo de Gal Costa"

Listen to Kates backing vocals on Big Country song The Seer for insight....apparently she came in the studio heard the song and then jammed iti just a couple of hours....she is too low in the mix for me but still a great insight into how free she can be jamming

Please, do a Guns n Roses analyses. In the songs Patience he uses two kinds of songs but You Could be Mine e awesome too.

Listen Marcos Viana e Malu Aires performance Maktub. Brasil ❤
