She is possibly the UK's most influential and unique female artist She writes and produces all her work all under her own strict control. It is sometimes years before we hear a Kate Bush album. "Hounds Of Love" is the album I think will really blow you away. I saw her live in 2014 (her first concert in 35 years) and she was breathtaking. I urge you to take some time to check out her back catalogue. In 1991 she covered Elton John's "Rocket Man" and put her own stamp on it. A artist who is definitely a pioneer in her craft.

Kate has an incredible 4 octave voice, and here she is singing in her upper register because she is playing a ghost (from the novel, Cathy dies and comes back to haunt her true love Heathcliff). Most of Kate's songs are character-driven and Kate becomes her character when she is performing. This is also from her first album and Kate said that on her first few records she wanted to explore the range of her voice, mostly in her upper register and therefore we get much more of her vocal gymnastics on the first two albums especially. By the time of Hounds of Love (her 5th) Kate sings in a much more mature, sensual style. Also, this is pre-MTV and Kate was one of the first artists to make musical performance videos

This was from her debut album 'The Kick Inside', she wrote this when she was 16. She started writing songs from piano and voice at the age of 11. By the time she was signed in 1977, she had written over 200 songs!! I am also more of a fan of her later work, check out 'Night of the Swallow' 'Pull out the Pin" and if you are ready for her epic ,'The Ninth Wave' is a seven part masterpiece that takes up the second half of Hounds of Love, and it is her crown jewel.
@Kae65022 жыл бұрын
YES! The Ninth Wave is epic. One of the greatest concept suites ever recorded. If you ever react to this do them all in order. The songs tell the story of a woman who finds herself swept overboard from a ship, alone in the vast ocean, wearing a life vest and a little light. The songs reflect her battle to stay awake and alive, while her subconscious thoughts play out in her mind.

Kate Bush is quite rightly a British music legend in her own right. Fair enough her style is not everyone's cup of tea but she has such an angelic, mesmerising voice and of course her hand movements. She actually took lessons from a Movement coach and has obviously incorporated this into her music videos. But the amazing thing about KB is that she had written her first album by age 14. One of her fans is Midge Ure who helped organise Live Aid with Sir Bob Geldof. Ure has said that she almost doesn't believe that people rate her as highly as what they do and if you were to sit down and speak to her she's like this very sweet wee girl with an incredibly soft voice.

This time, I remembered I was lying in the oak closet, and I heard distinctly the gusty wind, and the driving of the snow; I heard, also, the fir bough repeat its teasing sound, and ascribed it to the right cause: but it annoyed me so much, that I resolved to silence it, if possible; and, I thought, I rose and endeavoured to unhasp the casement. The hook was soldered into the staple: a circumstance observed by me when awake, but forgotten. “I must stop it, nevertheless!” I muttered, knocking my knuckles through the glass, and stretching an arm out to seize the importunate branch; instead of which, my fingers closed on the fingers of a little, ice-cold hand! The intense horror of nightmare came over me: I tried to draw back my arm, but the hand clung to it, and a most melancholy voice sobbed, “Let me in-let me in!” “Who are you?” I asked, struggling, meanwhile, to disengage myself. “Catherine Linton,” it replied, shiveringly (why did I think of Linton? I had read Earnshaw twenty times for Linton)-“I’m come home: I’d lost my way on the moor!” As it spoke, I discerned, obscurely, a child’s face looking through the window. Terror made me cruel; and, finding it useless to attempt shaking the creature off, I pulled its wrist on to the broken pane, and rubbed it to and fro till the blood ran down and soaked the bedclothes: still it wailed, “Let me in!” and maintained its tenacious gripe, almost maddening me with fear. “How can I!” I said at length. “Let me go, if you want me to let you in!” The fingers relaxed, I snatched mine through the hole, hurriedly piled the books up in a pyramid against it, and stopped my ears to exclude the lamentable prayer. I seemed to keep them closed above a quarter of an hour; yet, the instant I listened again, there was the doleful cry moaning on! “Begone!” I shouted. “I’ll never let you in, not if you beg for twenty years.” “It is twenty years,” mourned the voice: “twenty years. I’ve been a waif for twenty years!” Thereat began a feeble scratching outside, and the pile of books moved as if thrust forward. I tried to jump up; but could not stir a limb; and so yelled aloud, in a frenzy of fright.

Oh it will worm its way into your soul eventually. I didn't like it when I first heard it and now it's one of my favorites. The back story of Heathcliff and Catherine is played out well in this song and her voice is ment to be haunting as she is the ghost of Catherine.
