on the summer solstice (21st june) i went with my friends to the beach to watch the sunset and swim in the sea and scream a bit. we played car seat headrest and kate bush back-to-back for about an hour, and the next day this dropped. so basically. you're welcome we manifested this.

[@xerilaun]

"I was trying to say that, really, a man and a woman can't understand each other because we are a man and a woman. And if we could actually swap each other's roles, if we could actually be in each other's place for a while, I think we'd both be very surprised! [Laughs] And I think it would lead to a greater understanding. And really the only way I could think it could be done was either... you know, I thought a deal with the devil, you know. And I thought, 'well, no, why not a deal with God!' You know, because in a way it's so much more powerful the whole idea of asking God to make a deal with you. You see, for me it is still called "Deal With God", that was its title. But we were told that if we kept this title that it would not be played in any of the religious countries, Italy wouldn't play it, France wouldn't play it, and Australia wouldn't play it! Ireland wouldn't play it, and that generally we might get it blacked purely because it had God in the title" -Kate Bush

@@KnoxEmDown Radio stations and the religious lobby were a lot touchier back then; look at what happened to Sinead O'Connor in Ireland a decade later.

[@adamazzalino5247]

​@@KnoxEmDown This was only 19 years after people freaked out cuz Lennon said the Beatles were more popular than Jesus, the church being offended had a lot more sway in the 80s. Plus, Running Up That Hill is a much better song name than Deal With God.

[@kelpy3027]

I've seen a lot of people hate on this cover but I honestly don't think it's too bad. Yeah he sounds monotone in the beginning, but Will's version is more about the gradual buildup to the final chorus which is a staple in a lot of his music. Also doesn't help that tiktok has damaged people's attention spans lmao.

[@dezd7852]

last part is so true

[@FreeCatCheese]

The funny thing is that to me this cat and his band created one of the best tunes ever (Hippie Powers), that sounded like everything that was my mother's milk, and I could not get over it. But that was the only thing I got excited about. Now here's this entirely different, thick and tweedy and leathery and "British Motoring" cover of the dames tune, and its fucking amazing. Peace on Fucking Earth. And Good Will to People with the Souls of Wolves.

[@Lucas-wn3te]

I think it's a swell painting

@@FreeCatCheese list en to , ,,, how to leave town

[@ivomarques1190]

i personally consider this version better, and it is because they respect the sample and prolong the dynamics of the song from them. That gradual build-up gives it this interesting mystic, allthewhile will's voice has really sweet points in this specific lyrics, which is very very interesting for him

[@garageboy2172]

So I live in Bloomington Indiana, and we had a big outdoor street fest where CSHR was the headliner. You gotta realize that my son is a big fan and he was pumped about the show so I decided to go to the show . it should Be noted that I am 60 years old and I am a deadhead from back in the 1980s -1995 era. Back then I was a taper . That is I brought professional recording equipment including expensive microphones and cassette recorders into the show and I was allowed to record The Show by the band. So I decided to dust off my recording gear to tape the CSHR show. Being out of practice. I committed the trifecta of doing everything wrong. Firstly I did not test out and prepare my rig with new batteries. Secondly I got to this show late. This was kind of weird as when I got there it was 15 minutes after showtime. So I stated to set up my gear (tripod, Nakamichi CM-100 microphones, Tascam DR-680 digital recorder and all the necessary cables, etc). So I stated to set up my gear and this lady came up to me and said I could not set up my gear there as they needed to keep a "medical corridor" open. So I stated to break down my recording gear to find a better place to set up to record from. Meanwhile these two cops came over should I cause any problems..So I stood up to address the cops and they stood up straight and backed off...you gotta know here that I was wearing my US Marine Corps beret with all my rank, medal hatpins, etc, so the two cops told me "thank you for your servicd" and we fist bumped and right then the. CSHR sound mixer came up and told me to bring my recording rig up to the sound booth and set up there (props and righteousness to the sound and light guys). So I went back to the mix booth and set up my rig. I got it set up just in time for the band's (first song?). All was good and I asked one of the nearby security guys and asked him why the band started late and he told me they started on time but there was some kind of medical emergency and they had to stop the show so that the EMT folks could address the problem. Anyway the band started up again and they ROCKED! It was awesome! They had a great PA system and it was cranked UP! The band rocked and the light show was out of this world!! I thought about it, and then I was told that the medical emergency was some girl went into seizures...Well with that light show it was surprising that the entire crowd didn't seize up. Lol. So anyway all was good until my recorder ran out of battery power... Rookie mistake. I shot a few songs on my phone, packed up and split the place. I still had a lot of fun. My son had a blast, and I remembered all the mistakes made by rookie tapers... I really like this band and I hope to see them again sometime soon. New batteries, arrive early, and make friends with the sound and light crew... Thanks to all from Bloomington Indiana USA. Hope to see you again soon.

[@garageboy2172]

Wow after reading all these comments it just blows my mind I went there to listen to some good rock and roll loud great light show it was fun!! the hell with all the messaging. Just listen to the music and enjoy!!

[@quailmint8015]

this cover is good idc what people say.. i love the build up and the emotion of it☝️☝️ it feels different than the original and i feel like thats what makes it good. i love kate bush and running up that hill, but i feel like this cover is a whole different emotion. saw someone say it sounds more hopeless than the og, and that this cover is the feeling of acceptance (?? dont remember what they said the og was but????)
