Kate Bush Live - “Wuthering Heights”

[@greebo5294]

My music streamer keeps suggesting Kate Bush and "similar artists"... Like who, exactly? There is not, and never has been, an artist like Kate. I was 25 when I first heard this, and I was in love.

[@HJPhilippi]

That's right, Kate is incomparable. The only artist I can think of who is nearly as artful and musically complex is Tori Amos. She was my "Kate Bush of the 1990s", if you like.

[@Stabby_Dave]

It's like suggesting a similar artist to Madness. Good luck with that.

[@greebo5294]

@@HJPhilippi I kinda get that, but I hear bitterness and anger from Tori. Never from Kate.

[@HJPhilippi]

@@greebo5294 You're absolutely right, Tori *is* bitter and angry. Because of her story. It touches me very differently than Kate. But it's comparably expressive and complex to my ears.

[@trevorgardner1932]

The only band I can think of is Sparks, who are also incomparable

[@ultratone]

Any live footage of Kate Bush is a Treasure!

[@AstroSam66]

This gives me goosebumps! She is so extraordenary in her voice and her dancing.

[@odairfernandes1912]

One of the most memorable songs of all times.

This is not only a beautiful song , a marvelous lady , this is pure magic !!!

[@annettereynolds7457]

1979, I was 12 years old and stood in a shopping outlet in Perth, Australia when I first heard this song. Been a huge fan ever since then. Still the best female singer/songwriter ever.

Well said! I'm about the same. Born 67. What a lovely lovely woman ❤❤❤

[@ONEFATE9]

There will never be any one like Kate Bush. Never.

[@Bruno-ck4hl]

That's impossible !!! She's the only one !!

[@Jezza-m5k]

Tori Amos!

[@ONEFATE9]

@@Jezza-m5k Close, but no cigar!

[@Jezza-m5k]

​​@@ONEFATE9Well, that's debatable. Tori Amos is most definitely "like" Kate Bush, that's undeniable. And Tori Amos was heavily influenced by Kate Bush, artistically speaking. Will there ever be anybody to surpass Kate's ground-breaking originality or creative genius? It's highly improbable, but possible...

[@jaylevzi7293]

There is one and will only ever be one Kate Bush, I wish I'd seen her live back in the day, but she is truly a one off, there will never be another like her.

[@skyboswell]

Thank you so much for sharing this. The most magical bit for me is the at the very ebnd when all the amazing performers come back on stage to take a bow. So many of them no longer with us. RIP Gary Hurst, Alan Murphy, Liz Pearson and Del Palmer, gone to that great gig in the sky.

[@Eleventhearlofmars]

Did you notice who was in the front of the audience at 5:12 ? If you were a fan of coronation street you might recognise him his name is Chris Quentin and he played Brian Tilsley from 1978-1989. A little useless bit of info for you there. 😂

[@prestoncrewnarrowboaters8619]

If you listen to the track used in the video, she's almost note perfect live with the difference being she's moving and singing at the same time, and the effort is emense, but beautiful at the same time. Thank you Kate for all your music

[@skipacuff5104]

Oddly, the mic repeatedly fails to pick up the “it’s” between “Heathcliff” and “me” at the start of each chorus.

[@Eleventhearlofmars]

What an impassioned performance! This song always gets me…💔

She’s a genius! The Kick inside is possibly the best record ever made….and she was 19 years old!

I cannot agree with you.... More!!

One Word AMAZING as always!!! First LADY of music !!! Golden voice then now and forever!!! Kate I ❤️❤️!!!!!

[@jacquelinemosforth8280]

Stunning! There will never be anyone like Kate.

[@vanderfleet-martin]

Awesome! When I was 15 I wrote a lame essay on Wuthering Heights, Kate wrote this.

[@SuperChrisDub]

Always loved Kate and took a lot of stick for it, being a teenage boy at the height of her fame in the early eighties. Didn't stop me listening.

[@Eleventhearlofmars]

Did you notice who was in the front of the audience at 5:12 ? If you remember coronation street it’s the guy who played a character called Brian Tilsley and he first appeared in Corrie in 1978 as well. Fancy a Corrie character turning up in the Manchester Apollo eh, it was only round the corner from where they filmed Coronation street. 😂

[@Michael-mm3fm]

Audience shots are brilliant, with the lights up.

[@Landofsmiles999]

That guitar lead just took this song to another level i didn't think possible. Amazing

[@lp2276]

I grew up with this song, and I loved it. Funny enough, for 20 years I never knew who the artist was and in the late 90's and early 2000's it was hardly played in the radio, or in stores. So, every time I heard it, I went around asking total strangers "do you know what's the name of this song, please, who sings it?" I did not grow up in the USA, so usually the answer was "no idea". As a child and a teenager, I could not understand the lyrics either. But even in the USA nobody was able to help me at all. I finally got my answer in 2004, when I heard the names "Heathcliff" and "Cathy" and the scene of the window. This wild, passionate song had already impressed me before I understood what it was about. Now I loved it even more, as it referred to one of my favourite novels at age 15. Coincidentally, I had just finished the original English version of the book a little before I heard the song and understood part of the lyrics for the first time. Everything came around, full circle, nicely.

[@mirka]

@@lp2276 Thanks, amazing how music knows no borders. I grew up in Poland, under Russian occupation at that time. And yet we had all Western music on the radio ( it was 1970/80). Kate Bush was often played, it's music I grew up with. Where do you live now ?

Gran expresividad, aquí se nota una mejora en su técnica de canto respecto a la versión original. La composición es bellísima y Kate la transmite con gran arte en el escenario. Realmente disfruto ver y escuchar a esta gran compositora e intérprete. Gracias por compartir !

[@maxcrc]

su voz de angelito, sus ojos , hasta sus hoyuelos , esa muchacha era un angel , escribio solita la cancion a los 18 anyos, diseno solita la coreografia, grabaron el video todo de una toma sin interrupciones. Que mas vamos a agregar hermano, ah bueno, agrego que 40 anyos despues escucharla me da las mismas emociones, escalofrios y llantos que el mismismo primer dia cuando era algo mas que un bebe.

Gilmour n'a pas découvert Bush : Gilmour a rendu service à son ami Ricky Hopper ( un publicist dans le show biz) qui était ami du frère de Bush. Kate rejetté par les labels, Hopper a insisté auprès de Gilmour pour écouter des demos.... Puis Gilmour a payé pour que 3 titres soient enregistré avec des musiciens professionnels pour donner à EMI... un contrat est signé...
