- Official music video for the single "Babooshka" by British singer Kate Bush, taken from her album Never for Ever.
Released as a single in June 1980, it spent 10 weeks in the UK chart, peaking at number five. It was an even bigger hit in Australia, where it was the 20th best-selling single of the year.
The track features John Giblin on bass.
"Babooshka" became Bush's second top five hit in the UK and was certified silver for sales of over 250,000 by the BPI. - Hudba

being slav and watching this has me feeling weird, because never in my life have i seen a half-naked woman dancing and screaming "grandma" at the top of her lungs
I just spat out my tea laughing at your comment! Brilliant :D
God I nearly choked on my crumpet at that comment 😂
You don't have to be Slav to not have seen that.
My nickname has been babushka since forever, I was a baby when my family started calling me that. I learned its meaning when I was a little older and realized they knew all along. They knew they were calling me grandma.
Do you know Baba Yaga?
Why do people keep saying she's terrifying? She's ethereal and straight up breathtaking. And, I think I love her.
Berri Guido-Zeppeli her high pitched voice and large expressive eyes
She's fascinating
Straight. That’s why.
They can't stand flavour 😌
yes!!!!
The 70’s and 80’s were definitely creative times I can’t find much like this anymore
As an experiment I looked up the UK Top 40 and picked 3 songs at random to watch the videos. It was truly dire stuff.
Nonsense! That's cos you're not looking in the right places. There's plenty of _phenomenal_ modern music being made.
Yeah there's a lot of shite rn, but no doubt there was also a lot of shite being made in the 70's & 80's. It's just easier for rubbish music to find a platform these days
@@DodgyDaveGTXList some songs
Sia, Robyn, Aurora..
@@lewisnerthat's mainstream music, you won't find Kate Bush type music there at all. You need to look at more left field and alternative music.
I love how in all her songs, she tells a story.
I was pregnant with my daughter Kate when this came out...For some reason everytime i hear it years after, I get that morning sickness feeling ...how weird how music leaves a mark in strange ways sometimes.
Is she named after Kate Bush?
I feel the same about Orinoco Flow by Enya :)
That's fascinating. Sense memory is a powerful thing.
That’s beautiful!
Tunes are the pins that transfix the butterflies of nostalgic memories.
Loving the fact a new generation are finding this amazing, brilliant, beautiful women I’ve been following since 1978! Yes I’m old 👵🏻😂
I'm 20, just discovered this song today and I can't seem to stop listening to it.
She joined in 2010, I think you meant you’ve been listening to her since 1978? Either way that’s awesome!
@@wisterias8408 I hope you know that to 'follow' isn't a term used only on-line, in this context it just means to be interested in something
Your not old, your old if you are 100
I used to watch this everytime when I was 10 but now I'm back
I remember when I was 6, I would play this song over and over. So lucky have parents with great music taste. I love how all of Kate's songs tell these enthralling stories.
That is so wonderful!!
That IS lucky! I was trying to overcome Jim Nabors and others that I only now appreciate. But then? Just, no.
Im the same. My mum would play led zepp, deep purple, fleetwood mac, guns n roses, Rush and loads of others, obvs kate bush. I do the same with my kids now. My wife likes stuff from all the way back to the 50s, so theres quite a range of music in the house.
Kate Bush is a creative genius.
She'll be remembered long after other lesser artists have faded from cultural memory.
Testify.
Ik she used babushka as a mistake but I like to think in way it’s intentional. She’s
doing this because she’s an old women and using that as her fake name is so powerful. She’s kinda showing him how “yeah I’m old and maybe someone’s grandma but I can still make you fall in love me” that’s the babooshka power haha
that's exactly what i thought the whole song meant???
Superior interpretation
What was it meant to be?
@@leleticiaa yeah but she didn’t know what babooshka meant. She used it cause it sounded cool
@@alibyxe6400 well the usage of babooshka was cause it sounded good haha
“IM ALL YOURS GRANDMA-“ LMFAO- i stg ik it was a mistake but its still hilarious
I know it was a mistake but I do kind of feel like her using that name to catfish her husband gives the song another layer of meaning. Like she was hinting to him that although she is being all seductive in her letters and is making him think he is having an affair with a younger woman, she is still really his old wife.
Although calling your seductress "grandma" by mistake is still funny.
I’m polish and heard babushka used to also refer to a scarf
@Alexander Caplenor oh ok sorry for my mistake its just what i had heard what it meant
@Alexander Caplenor babushka means grandma. don't confuse people
@@arrowloll2574 babushka means grandma
This song was a monster smash in 1980 Australia. It is my first memory of a music video. The magnificent and theatrical Kate Bush performing an absolute classic. It was a thrill every time we heard it play on the radio in the car and on Saturday morning television. I was 10 ❤.

*The* *definition* *of* *a* *classic* *masterpiece* *.*
How can a song sound so modern get so much like the time the song was released
You should listen to her The Dreaming album. Released in the early 80s but it’s more daring than like 99% of music now lol
exactly
History repeats
A lot of indie has roots in 60’s and 70’s music lol (granted this was 1980 but still close enough)
To everyone commenting on why she uses the Russian word for grandmother to depict a sexy temptress, Kate explained in an interview once that she popped the name into the song, assuming it had come from some fairy tale she’d heard as a child, and that it just sounded right. She didn’t learn until later that it meant ‘grandmother.’
I was wondering about that too! Thinking the whole time, "damn that must be one hell of a cougar if she's singing about grandma like that"
It might be a coincidence but it kinda goes with the lyrics if you overthink a bit
Then again, if it weren't for our grandmas being sexy at some point, none of us would be here
Well grandmas can be sexy
Did she get it confused with 'Baba yaga'? I could see that happening.
I have a newfound appreciation for Kate Bush and her music. It's unique and it's wonderful.
So much talent and so much beauty in one woman. I'm dizzy.
“Babooshka” by English singer and songwriter Kate Bush tells the story of a mature wife who is feeling insecure in her marriage. So to ascertain how faithful her hubby is, she initiates a scheme to send him love letters but under the disguise of another woman by the name of “Babooshka”.
“Babooshka” is actually a representation of wife’s younger self who she feels her husband would be more attracted to than who she actually is in the present. The ultimate conclusion and thus meaning of the song has been interpreted in various ways. Babooshka’s generally interpretation is that the wife, in successfully tempting her husband with the promise of another woman, ended up destroying their relationship. However, it has also been suggested that ultimately the wife realizes that she indeed is “Babooshka” and in the process regains the desired admiration of her husband.
ugh not me misspelling disguise as guise😭
why do i have so much like thingys
damn shawty ty
ohhhh- as someone who speaks russian as his 1st language- i thought she was trying to say grandma and mispronounced it really badly.
because youre supposed to say 'bA-bu-shka', not 'ba-bOO-shka'

It's her intensity that keeps me coming back. No other musician/song writer/singer seems to pack so much expression in.
Idk, lady gaga's pretty crazy too lol
@@BananaRepublik Oh, no!
I think music is doing great today -- I am 70 and have been a music fan since I was 10 -- because of the history of great artists like Kate Bush. She is one of the Gods.
She has such a unique voice and style like you can always hear when a song is hers
I like how we’re vibing to a 40 year old song.
i wonder how these things happen..

Talent is timeless.
She's at No. 1! 😃
@Hisduchess But it was, and now she is. Better she is discovered by a new generation through Stranger Things, than never discovered at all.
*The* *best* *classic* *video* *of* *all* *time* *.*
In the late 80’s, my mate Jim and I would trudge home from art college depressed at having done another days rubbish painting. Once back at our miserable flat we would invariably stick on a well worn Kate bush ‘greatest hits’ video and watch it while downing a few beers, which would cheer us up no end. ‘Babooshka’ was one of our favourites. What a woman. What an artist. What a body..
Honestly, Kate is more than a singer, she’s an artist and performer. She can really do it all, write and sing and be a visual artist.
Ela entrega
That why shes got the CZcams For Artists symbol next to her name (the music one)
Writer composer and producer
Also a singer
She’s literally the worst thing to happen to music
Still can't get over the fact that she's basically screaming 'granny' at the top of her lungs and that it's supposed to be a sexy pseudonym, but holy balls do I feel this song in my very soul. Those vocals, that haunting chord progression, that fretless bass singing along, it's all great stuff.
@Jessica Buttgereit ask Elton John he cant write for toffee .... she was writing this at 17 ... what was you doing slipping a finger in yourself thinking you were a woman
granny in russian is "Babushka" not babooshka lol
WHEN does she sing those words???? Mmmm
I love how she isn’t saying grandma, babooshka is the name of the woman she is pretending to be, aka a younger version of her to see if her husband would be faithful in their relationship. You can tell she doesn’t mean “babushka” or grandma because it’s “babooshka” not “babushka”
@Jessica Buttgereit So? This isn't a video about Taylor Swift, who is nowhere near as creative as Kate Bush.
Just in awe of her. Her beauty, her artistry. Envious of her freedom. So inspiring.
Envious of her freedom?Why?Aren't you free?
@@siebdruck01maybe because she was unique in her approach to her talent. When I first heard Kate bush I thought she had a terrible voice and wondered why she had a record out, I thought she was really high pitched and sounded out of tune. I know now how clever she is and a phenomenal song writer
absolute legend she is ,
@@siebdruck01 her freedom of artistic expression. She’s fearless.
@@joeyhyland ah now I see....yeah,reaching this kind of freedom is so hard to reach, but by listening we can get a glimpse of what is possible...even for us "smaller"talented beings.
This was the first video I saw of Kate Bush as a child, on VH1 in the early 90's, I was fascinated by the minimalism, the costumes, and the powerfulness of her voice. Since then I have been a fan for more than 30 years.
i never realised how tiny Kate Bush was until i saw her next to that violin...amazing!!
well she is a fairy after all.
:D
It's a double bass!
+Maureen Redmond
Have you heard of jokes before?
Yes I heard it has something to do with "laughs"....wasn't it :-) ?
Anyone else notice that like in almost 40% of all her songs there’s a glass shattering sound effect in there somewhere? I just love that lmao
I just realized it’s because it was the signature sound on the fairlight, the first sampler she used 😅
Great observation! I've probably heard that sound in her songs ten thousand times since the 80s, and never realized it was in so many 🧐
@@aidandelgass4701 not just the first sampler she used but the first sampler period. She was one of the pioneers of using sampled sounds. She was also one of the first people to make and use a headset mic-the first one was a wire coat hanger with a mic attached to it so she could move while dancing on her 1979 Tour of Life. She’s insanely innovative.
@@razrv3lc so true 😤 she and innovation are synonymous
Sound effects from the Fairlight appear in her other songs too, like a train whistle at the end of Cloudbusting, as well as shipping forecasts in And Dream of Sheep
Thanks Kate...
Loved your music and talent since the first time on the radio.....
Your music brings back so many memories from my teens onwards.
Im 65 😮 this year and still listening...

What a true artist.... way ahead of her time. Quintessential performer. Breathtaking talent
Actually one of the textbook examples of “when you’re happy you enjoy the music, when you’re sad you understand the lyrics”
Absolutely. Another textbook example is Stoney End sung by Barbra Streisand which mixes the upbeat melody with the tragic lyrics to great ironic effect.
Another example of an upbeat melody but sad lyrics is Luka by Suzanne Vega
The lyrics have the same plot as The Pina Colada song 😂
I must be happy because I can’t understand the lyrics ???
@@isaackellogg3493basically she wanted to test her husband whether he would simply fall into her catfishing shit or not, so she used a pseudonym and started sending letters, as expected the husband got the letters and started reading it. So to test further, she decided to meet him with her character, thus putting her marriage at risk due to paranoia that she's getting old
She is really underestimated and never been given a credit which she cearly deserves. What a legend, and icon and a true star. I keep listening her for the last 10 years.
She wasn't interested in being very famous

She wanted to test her husband
She knew exactly what to do
A pseudonym
To fool him
She couldn't have made a worst move
She sent him scented letters
And he received them with a strange delight
Just like
His wife
But how she was before the tears
And how she was before the years flew by
And how she was when she was beautiful
She signed the letter
All yours
Babooshka, babooshka, babooshka ja, ja
All yours
Babooshka, babooshka, babooshka ja, ja
She wanted to take it further
So she arranged a place to go
To see
If he
Would fall for her incognito
And when he laid eyes on her
He got the feeling they had met before
Uncanny
How she
Reminds him of his little lady
Capacity to give him all he needs
Just like his wife before she freezed on him
Just like his wife when she was beautiful
He shouted out
I'm all yours

@@normanberg9940 ok

@@olivia5256 Female artists of that generation just never appealed to me. With the exception of Debbie Harry maybe. And I'm not entirely sure if that's not just because I had a teenage crush on her. That era was just so dominated by Queen, Roxy Music, Duran Duran, Simple Minds, Spandau Ballet, OMD and so forth (Not U2, highly overrated).
The next generation however would go on to spawn all the greatest female artists, Sinead O'Conner, Dido, Alanis Morrissette, Suzanne Vega, Via con Dios and many more. They completely outshone the men of that era. To be honest, besides The Verge none of them were memorable.
That's just my opinion pf course. But over the decades my opinion hasn't changed.

I agree with you if tiktok didn't exist my playlist would be very boring
I agree. My 14 year old discovered it on TikTok and I have always loved Kate Bush, so naturally I am thrilled she loves this song!
The chorus features the word "grandmother" not only in Russian (babooshka), but also in Greek (Yaya). Kate was unaware of both instances at the time she wrote the song, but that is one pretty big coincidence.
How can you say babushka coincidentally. And even more, say yaya after that? 🤔🤔🤔
fits pretty well with the fact that they are meant to be old and hallowed until they take up the mantle
@@MrCiberCiber listen to the lyrics, it's about a woman who tests her husband's infidelity by sending him letters in the name of another woman. the name she chose was babooshka, but it wasn't supposed to mean grandma.

She has such a beautiful voice. The way she sings just tickles my brain. I dont listen to many female artists, not many pop artists either but Kate Bush just has such a unique feel to her, in her style and her music. ❤

@@CocoTheMii exactly
u expect tiktokers to be better than anything? lol
@@zackzallie8735 I mean are you better than anything
Is she from Russia?
I know Kate Bush didn't know the meaning of the word "babooshka" at the time of writing the song, but I think it actually fits spectacularly?
The story behind the song is that of a woman who wants to test her husbands loyalty because she fears that her husband thinks she has became ugly and old. She writes him letters from an alias and makes him fall in love with "Babooshka".
It has the unintentional meaning of blindly following that which sounds beautiful. The husband betrays his aging wife in favour of "Babooshka", literally "grandma".
I like to pretend that in the world of the song the wife knowingly choose this alias to see if her husband would she through the persona or sense something was off. But her husband, only being able to see things for what they are on the surface, never did. I also like to pretend that this was the wife empowering herself through the word babooshka - reclaming her right to age and seeing herself as an old AND powerful woman.
Edit: Hi, everyone! This comment got a lot more attention than I expected so I just want to clarify something really quick: I am aware that there are many other interpretetions of this song, but this is just the story and reading I came up with. If you have any other opinions feel free to share them in the replies but please be nice and respectful to eachother. That's it and I hope you have a nice day :)
I like that interpretation, it fits with the theme of the song and video, which clearly depict a woman taking back her power in a marriage gone stale. The lyrics tells a really intriguing and original story with clarity and passion. Just love how sexy and strong KB looks in her 'warrior goddess' guise, WOW!
I also like how Babooshka in the lyrics also kind of sounds like; Ka(te) boosh (bush) ka yaya, referring to herself behind the alias
@@chocom.5392 Never thought of that! Everything about the song fits - it's simply genius.

Everytime I hear this song it reminds me of being 5, sitting on the kitchen counter , baking cake with mom on a cold winter day , my mom blasting this while singing and dancing with me also reminds me how I started to hit my head on the cupboard so I stopped sitting on there.

she hit the sweet spot between brilliant and insane
Thanos was Right You won the comment section!
she's insanely brilliant
I mean we say that, but she was the one to have the first ever self-written number 1 in the UK (while she was IN HER TEENS) meaning she was either lucky or she really, really knew exactly what would sell.
So yeah, she was brilliant and we were insane :P
All of the best people are at least little bit insane. (in a good way!)
Not really. she is cringe as fuck.
She's certainly one of the most unique and creative women in the history of music and she wrote and produced every one of her songs unbelievable talent and the fact she was doing all that in the 1970s and 1980s is more impressive for me she's one of the great talents of the last 50 years
Well said 👏👏👏👏☺️I love everything about her. She knew when to step back, and get on with raising her son. She’s awesome, the complete creative package in my view. She so deserves the interest from a new generation and the success that brings this time around. 🇬🇧
She spoke - SCREAMED - truth in her lyrics and her videos to the patriarchal society of which we American females are more than ever now under their thumbs in 2023. We're regressing, not progressing. But in the end, the only losers will be the patriarchs.

2020 - this song is awesome!
😊😉
Took me 40 year's to appreciate how good this song is .
Ja😁
Kate Bush music is timeless.
...Quando eu era pequena, sentia medo dessa mulher cantando...Continuo pequena rsrs🙈...
I've loved this woman since I first heard her in 1982. Such a great talent and pioneer. Pure emotion. Oddly, a black metal band called venom from the UK turned me on to her. They loved her too !
An amazing singer & an incredibly beautiful woman. My pulse always quickens watching this. Believe it or not she is 5 weeks older than me.
What a stunner she was!
This woman was beyond creative, to this day there is no artist that has produced similar sounding music.
There probably is
@@kieran40k89 like?
Kate Bush was the originator but Tori Amos was definitely inspired by her voice and theatricality, and St Vinncent was inspired by her electronics.
I personally prefer Kate Bush, but you can definitely hear traces of her in other musicians.
@@pipergc3469 but to have her range... Unlikely
@Akash Jha 👏👏👏
This song feels weirdly Ghibli-like
That’s true 😳😳
Tbh it kinda does
What is that name 🤔?
True. Maybe it's because Babooshka -> Old Woman -> Yubaba. That and the ethereal atmosphere of the song overall
i think its the piano
this song is so beautiful i love it. its so unique and inspiring, Kate Bush is so talented
Amazing 👏
I was roughly 15 years old when Kate appeared.
Changed the way I looked at music.
Lovely, seriously beautiful and nutty woman with a voice to die for.
She’s always done her own thing. Artistry in its purest form.
No compromise in her 😉
Kate is from a higher level, a true visionary.
Me being Slavic and watching her scream grandma for two minutes 👁👄👁
Where from ? Hehe
@@viktorijakarkle3563 Hm... Bulgaria, Russia, Ukraine, Belarus ?
Really? 😂😂👀
@@damianbarber6677 ye, what'd you expect?
Baba babooshka
I can remember standing in front of the tv mesmerized and I was about 5 when this song came out.
What a voice, send chills down my spine.
RIP John Giblin. Masterful bass playing on this tune.
Absolutely, very taste full melodic playing. RIP John Giblin
Jhon giblin pur génie qui a aussi été le bassiste de BRAND X
Kate Bush music is full of great bass players and bass lines
Absolutely iconic!
*Beautiful* *Fantastic* *Classic* *.*
Her expressions and movements are absolute gold. The video is relatively simple, but she makes it such an entertaining and interesting experience.
** 2:42 **
True of her work in general
@travelling man You like her or not ? 😉
@travelling man Extremely beautiful, talented, intelligent, humble. I worship her 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
@travelling man My feminine ideal 😍
I was 10 years old when this video was released. I used to freeze in front of the TV watching Kate Bush dressed as Valkyrie and wishing the video would never end. I'm glad that newer generations are discovering this phenomenal artist 40 years later.
I did thanks to MTV 80s. I was born in 1988 so i'm too young to remember the 80s.
Eu tinha 18.
@@svin7987 Sim, a década de 1980 foi sensacional.
I think I was 7 or 8. This video left a BIG impression on me. Something from another planet that's been happily burned into my psyche.
I wish ive could have seen this live🤩🤩
I was 10 years old in 1980, that's when I saw this video for the first time. I had a platonic childhood crush on Kate Bush for many years.
Great song, great clip
this women is absolutely hypnotizing. Fucking masterclass artist.
Keep it in your pants
@@sallthings3343 grimes messed that up by marrying elon musk 🤢🤢🤢
@@polly-fe3pq fr
Im guessing you're from the kingdom aye'
Bad language is wrong
Man, how are you born with so much talent??
She’s just on another level in regards to body , mind and spirit!
Just a continued pleasure to watch!
She's the best!
This song will be still listened to in an other 43 years.
Of course!
The Voice is AW!!🤩🤩
This young lady was so far ahead of her time, simply stunning.
Never thought of her as ahead of her time. She was right where she should have been. Big in the UK, the US didn't seem to get her, and what I'm reading is they still find her a bit "spooky, odd witch like" I even read today. None of these words would have been how she was described when I first heard her when I was in school and Wuthering Heights charted. Love her, glad she's reaching a new audience. 💃💃💃💃💃
@@jelly-baby Very big in Australia also.
@@jelly-baby To be fair her most successful song reached new heights 30 years later.
@@jackieblue1267 Yep. Saw her on Aussie Countdown circa 1979. What a babe. My wife was jealous.
@@jelly-baby Not in Canada. Many of us loved her and still do.
i literally listen to this song every day
So do I 😍
No need to say literally,we believe you 🤷♂️😂👍🏻
