KATE BUSH-THIS WOMAN'S WORK-WOGAN-BBC 1-.DEC. 6. 1989.

This could be the single most perfect song in human history.

IMO the live Maxwell cover was haunting. Absolutely beautiful.

100%😉

[@carlix8035]

Not quite…. But it is up there as pretty much perfect for the time. If she’d written it with 100% real instruments from the get go… I’d give 20/10. The melody and lyrics are timeless. The production isn’t unfortunately imo.

“I know you have a little life in you yet, I know you have a lot of strength left" this song hits me on so many levels in my life right now i can’t even describe it.

[@Wannabestartinsumthin]

I agree, wow, all my emotions come out at once with this classic, 😢

[@terryosborne9298]

I remember my mate, who was a sound guy on The Wogan Show that this performance caused some last minute changes. Back then most artists mimed, be it Top of The Pops, The Tube etc. Kate arrived ready to sing live. The piano was not one she was used to, hence her removing her boots to get better purchase on the pedals. A true masterclass in live performance by Kate here.

[@johnjamesduffy7653]

I was surprised to read that it only peaked at #25 in the charts at the time but then I remembered it's Kate Bush & everyone already had the album because when Kate releases an album you don't wait, you rush out to get it straight away because you know it will be exceptional.

This gives me goosebumps. Her voice is something else.

[@Ctrl_alt_deleteandrepeat]

I guess some people don't see the raw, exposed ,emotional beauty in a song like this because they have the emotional depth of a muddy puddle, which makes me sad for civilization... Some people don't identify with real empathic emotions, can't communicate them, dismiss them. They just don't relate. It's human behaviour and the world at large...unfortunately. I do get a bit deep. This literally makes me cry instantly..and I'm not ashamed of it.. Just perfection. Kate Bush is an incredible woman that effortlessly displays real beauty and delicate emotion both inside and out...❤

[@DavePA007]

Which is why trump still leads a political party. I chuckle when civilized and world are used together.

[@londonwilde]

I think people can reach this emotional depth but are too afraid to do so. As if they would appear weak by showing their true selves.

[@kimp2994]

Such a beautiful song. The lyrics resonate so much. What an amazing voice - one of my favourite live performances of all time ❤

not quite a Donahue but not a million miles away. Wogan was more lighthearted, generally, on his radio show and other appearances he was legit funny.

Back then Wogan was a bit of a British institution on the BBC with Irish wit and charm. Chat shows, TV quiz shows and his irreverent take on the yearly Eurovision Song contest!
