Hey, I'm one of those kids that helped color this in.
That’s awesome, Joshua. Which one was yours?
The whole thing looks amazing! You and all the colorers should be proud of yourselves.
You should be proud that you helped make this piece of art! Nice job, Joshua! 👍🏼
I really liked that. The art work was great and creative
I hope I am one of them
thank you guys so much for the support!
You’re amazing Meg!! 💓 merry christmas ✨
Thanks for the song.
Thanks for the song, Meg! ❤️
Love it!
"you won't be unhappy" sounds amazing
“Come on baby, come on darling, let me steal this moment from you now”
I love that line
I love that line too
I'm not gonna lie, Meg Myers voice is perfect for 80s style of music. Her voice is so powerful
That's why it reminds me of the music years 80s and 90s. Epic!!
I thought the same! Her voice and song partly remind me of Eurithmics, Roxette, AHA and other...
Meyer's Voice brings a new energy to the song!
Respect to Kate Bush's original, but I like this version better! 👍
@@theguardian908 same
Well it is a cover from the 80's
3:18 Shoutout to TOM for being the only kid gangster enough to write his name smack dab in the middle of the drawing
lol
I hope he’s living his best life rn
The odd aspect of this is how you were able to notice this since it only flashes for a fraction of a second onscreen -- a very LOW fraction of a second. Lile probably only 1/10th of a second. You must have been bored.
@@kenwhitener985 I was blown away by this song the first time i came across it on CZcams. I also found Meg to be extremely interesting and I ended up watching the video a dozen times at least that day.
@@kenwhitener985 lol
Stranger things gonna push 80's music back to number 1 on every chart out there and I'm all here for it !
This is a cover, the original is by Kate Bush
>Insert reddit soy comment here relating to STRANGER THINGS
I hate normies.
NAHHH WHEN THIS IS MAXES FAVOURITE SONG IN STRANGER THINGS AND IN RL LMFAOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.
thought it was just me . stranger things brought me here
frr!!
With the original getting so much radio play now thanks to Stranger Things, I hope people don't forget how outstanding this cover is. Meg's voice is so rich, the instrumentation is so powerful, and even the video was made in such a lovely way. I honestly prefer this version.
I agree, amazing rendition.
Love that she kept that 80’s synth goodness 😊
I wonder if the “Myers” tombstone in front of Max in the upside-down is in reference to this?
i feel like this cover pushed it to being popular enough for stranger things to focus on the bush version
@@moshjoshpitchief4418 I totally agree.
The song's energy totally explodes after "you won't be unhappy!" Just pure epic!
"pure epic"?
Best part to be sure
Ya that boom when the drums and instrumentation drop back in
@@robertjohnson8250 you got a problem with what was said? Or is it you just don't understand?
Shifts it into 4th gear for sure.
This is the coolest idea ever!! And the song still gets me everytime
kinda gives a flip book vibe without seeing pages flip through but its extra cool
child labour /s
@_ Solus_ they had to color AT LEAST TWO based on the number of frames.
I think we found the kid who hated drawing in class ;)
Occultic number of children
It's sad that so many incredible pieces of art like this are so often lost to time. Glad pop culture is able to bring back a new audience to timeless works at least for a while
Yes, lost from 2019. This is just a cover of the original. And it’s been playing all over the play for like 3 years now
@@jonosterman2878 😆😆
@@jonosterman2878 calm down, lmao 🤣
This song albeit a cover sounds quite timeless
@@dariamorgendorffe8
Man thought that comment was a personal attack
... with enormous respect for Kate Bush, I can, personally, say that I find Meg's cover to be a masterpiece... that both carries-on and improves upon the genuine piece-of-art that was the original. It's hard to imagine that this song could have become any more powerful. Yet... that is the indescribable impact of Meg's voice and personality.
calling a cover that doesn’t bring nothing really new to a song a masterpiece...
@@lll000l00o cry about it
It’s literally the exact same song with the advantage of 40 years of sound production technology lol
@get spun that's such a bullshit! Meg has a great voice, putting so much emotion on every line.
@@momerion yeah her voice is so great with that obnoxious effect laid over it huh
It makes me fking cry every time I watch this. Hundreds of endless universes, whole lives. Unicolored, multicolored, with extra details like dots, figures, animals, names, all so different but equally beautiful and deep. Colour of Everything.
It feels a lot like Kate Bush’s version is post-grief. Whereas they’d accepted the situation, this version feels raw. Denial, anger, bargaining… it’s all there.
YWNBARW
this is like a revival song..
Great way to put it I agree 👍
Listen to the placebo cover from the 90s that one is real rawww
Well said
This was the version I heard first, but it truly does such justice to the original. A truly amazing cover! 💜
yes is a cover , but i prefer this version
Agreed!!!! An amazing remake!
I heard this the first time on 89.7 alt rock Detroit a few months ago driving home from work got a little teary-eyed with all the passion in meg myers voice! Stranger things Katie bush original does not come close!!
@@harumidelgado4475 and long before Stranger Things season 4 lol
increase 5% to the speed and it sounds great !!
Other artists have covered Kate's music before - but they didn't own their version. They were just going through the motions of singing a song they didn't really feel. Ms Myers OWNED this. She put her heart and soul into using her vision to make this ROCK! Also have to thank her for helping me rediscover Kate. After 1985 she fell off the map - for me - for 34 years.
I have yet to see anything Meg does not own. I looks like she pours herself in, and then pours it all out so we can feel what she felt. Kinda beautiful, scary beautiful.
Heard this song when my son was hooked up to breathing machines and we were praying for his life. Thank goodness he survived! But hearing it a few years later still gives me tears because it gave me strength when my entire world was falling apart. One of the best covers of a song!
Vecna was trying to get him, you saved him with this song.
Honestly one of the best covers I’ve ever heard but also one of the interesting concepts for a music video. Love it!
Yes
No
It's really not the best cover for the song lmfao
yeah it's good, but the one from placebo is good as well. But nothing better than the original of course :)
MV for justin bieber where are u now is similar and pretty sick.
I have no clue who Meg Myers is, but I love that she has a voice that really fits the energy Kate Bush had in the original.
I strongly recommend giving Meg's other music a listen 👍
@@bd007h I'll second this suggestion. Even if her music isn't your style, you'll see that she's truly an inspired artist.
Lemon Eyes, a treat for the eyes & ears. But all her music is great 👍
Hear hear. She has the energy in her voice..
I like Placebo’s cover of this song
As an old Duffer, who still has the original vinyl album, I'm shocked at how good this version is.
The video concept is brilliant too!
What's a duffer?
@@julianphillips7978 an old person. Northern English slang.
She's the only one who meets, at the very least, the young Kate Bush who came out the gate with this self written & self produced masterpiece (as a teenager)...
The Duffer brothers are the creators of Stranger Things series lol
If I remember correctly when I read through comments for this video, a child that coloured a portion of this video passed away. What a memory!
Meg, words can't describe the justice and beauty you did for the original song. Thank you for helping introduce Kate Bush to a new young audience.
Reminds us of the original, different and unique in its own way.
Don't worry they'll be back to ball slapping that dangling thing in the back of cardi b's throat soon enough
Yep when I saw stranger things S4 and heard Kates version I was like - wait - I used to play Megs version on repeat on my way to work couple years back. I did a double take and realized Megs version was not Kates. Im not trying to compare either versions they are both good. However, Megs voice has something magical and when I first hear her cover 😍 I was in love! She revamped and gave this song character and life. And to he honest, I thought it was her song originally I had no clue. Only because discovered this song playing on our local radio station I fell in love with Megs music. She is very talented 👏 😍 ❤
Pictures in colorful crayons can describe.we have some talented young generation of art artists!beautiful video!
@loudnsounds - Hardly. This sounds canned. Kate Bush was well ahead of her time. This version is one of the worst copies of Bush's song. You can literally hear how it was produced, and the singing sounds strained.
This is not a mere cover, or update. It is an honest tribute from the one artist to the original. I was a fan of Kate Bush in the first run and this is just...amazing. Not a cover, not an update, not just a tribute. This is Adoration.
Nicely put.
Well said! I’m embarrassed to admit I only knew the Placebo version and loved it, but already see how much better the song can be, now I have to listen to the original. Gonna be hard to top this, though
I disagree.....I was about to get into this chicks music. If you seen me an hour ago I found her today , watched desire and one of her other tracks. But no this kate bush track should have NEVER been tampered with. Its a cop out and a heartbreaker for me. I thought this chick was the bomb until she did the kate cover. Its a mockery version at best.
Call it what you want, it's still a cover
Umm? So she didn't write this? That's news to me.
This song helped me get out of a really dark space & still does when I find myself in my shadow 💛
Meg - I've been listening to this song for a couple of years and it has honestly pulled me through some of my darkest times. Thank you, and the rest of the artistic team, for creating this masterpiece. Much respect to Kate Bush for the original, but this is the version that grabs hold of my soul.
I randomly paused it (4:23 almost 4:24) and there is the picture of kittens floating in space. The sweetest thing!
Cat Wars!
Catronauts!!
@@bebemusic9844 ...with Catitude!!
Wow!
Very important comment!
This is a really great and interesting cover. Has more “anger” to it than the original… if that makes sense.
the original was more sad, this is more of a" fight me for it" .
Some people say they prefer the original over this, but honestly I think this cover is way better than the original. It has so much more passion in it, more energy, more life.
@@neonlovegalaxy not a chance ! This is great but saying it’s way better than the original is nonsense
Makes good sense. Placebo did a great cover as well.
@@pearljammer7689 nah, I absolutely love this one more than the original. What are you gonna do, fight us for our prefences?
This will always be the hyperborea song
I remember the comments here before the stranger things crap lmao
along with "Little dark age" by MGMT
After the fall of Atlantis and before the rise of the sons of horus
Meg Myers deserves an Oscar for such a performance! 👏🎬
Now THIS is a cover. I've loved this song for decades, and this is by far one of the best covers. You got the emotion, the frustration, the passion. I'm absolutely moved. Beautiful!
Perfectly said. Thanks Meg!
Chromatics version is good also
quelle belle chanson reprise de kate bush
Better than original!!
@Headoverheels88 the *best cover
I never would've heard this if it weren't for stranger things. Such an addicting and beautiful voice
(i realize this is just a cover but i really like this version)
Same reason I'm here. This song made me cry
YES RIGHT!!
Saw episode 4 today and all of the season after . Exquisite piece and magnificent use of song in this series.
Same here! This song touch me deep into my feelings, but this cover its just an unique piece of art
Me too
It doesn't hurt me
Do you wanna feel how it feels?
Do you wanna know, know that it doesn't hurt me?
Do you wanna hear about the deal that I'm making?
It's you
It's you and me
And if I only could
I'd make a deal with God
And I'd get him to swap our places
Be running up that road
Be running up that hill
Be running up that building
Say, if I only could, oh
You don't wanna hurt me
But see how deep the bullet lies
Unaware I'm tearing you asunder
Oh, there is thunder in our hearts
Is there so much hate for the ones we love?
Well tell me, we both matter, don't we?
You
It's you and me
It's you and me, you won't be unhappy
And if I only could
I'd make a deal with God
And I'd get him to swap our places
Be running up that road
Be running up that hill
Be running up that building
Say, if I only could, oh
You
It's you and me
It's you and me, you won't be unhappy
Oh, come on baby
Come on, darling
Let me steal this moment from you now
Come on, angel
Come on, come on, darling
Let's exchange the experience
And if I only could
I'd make a deal with God
And I'd get him to swap our places
I'd be running up that road
Be running up that hill
With no problems
So, if I only could
I'd make a deal with God
And I'd get him to swap our places
Be running up that road
Be running up that hill
With no problems (For the ones we love)
See, if I only could (If I only could)
With no problems (There's so much hate for the ones we love)
Be running up that road
Be running up that hill
Be running up that road
Be running up that hill
Be running up that hill
Not all hero's wear capes
This is the best rendition I’ve ever heard. I love the music video and has a very spiritual feel.
You are feeling the VRIL!
Absolutely phenomenal!
whats up jesus?
I’m pretty sure it’s heaven 😲🧐

Dear diary,
Today youtube suggestions was awesome and found me a new favorite artist with an amazing video concept.
You are not alone. And sorry about your Diary.
@@Baex21 thanks for commenting so I knew to edit that unfortunate autocorrect mistake :)
definitely check out some of meg's other songs. she's the bomb diggity
Ahhh-men to this
Hear Hear!
I love how this manages to sound more 80s than Kate Bush's original. An outstanding cover😁
lmao whatever.
And so crazy clip...
This is probably the coolest idea for a music video ive seen to date
Those who also loved this song even before the hype, you're people of culture ♥
Me in december
It’s impossible to overhype Kate Bush , one of the most influential musical talents of the 20th century. However you came to discover this song is valid . Most of us probably heard Placebo’s version in The O.C. . Now the people born since then get to discover it. Welcome welcome
found this song in 2019 😫
I was cool before it was cool to be cool.
The minute it came out :)
Love the 80s vibe she left all over the song! I can smell that Crayola box through the screen... 🖍️📺
that's because it IS a song from the 80s.. this is a cover...
@@robdatta8767 That is why I commented "she left" the 80s vibe. Some artists do covers and change the song entirely I'm so happy she kept those 80s feels in it 🤗
@@anariel86 gotcha.. which version do you prefer?
@@robdatta8767 Placebo did a nice version but I enjoyed this one more!
@@anariel86 I prefer placebo's, not a fan of the vocals on this one
Her voice is just so perfect for this song
I heard this at work and thought it was better than the original, so I had to find it. The production is amazing.
There's a single frame in there where she has cat whiskers, brilliant. Kids are amazing.
I'm wondering if Meg herself colored that scene. She did color a few alongside the kids.
There's also multiple pages of cats in space suits, including one page that actually says Cat Wars and cats battling in space.
And I want to shake Tom's hand for putting his name in there. Good job.
@@modusponen1447 but who is Tom?
Tom is someone who wrote his name on the frame near 3:18
Thank you, Meg, for bringing joy into my world. My 3 year old son asks for "Butterfly Rocket Girl" every single night, and thinks that you're his older sister. It's very sweet to see how excited he still gets every time he hears the opening notes.
That is so cute!!
That's beautiful 😍
That’s really cool! Thanks for sharing this with us!
How sweet is that! Perhaps your son will be an artist of some kind, he definitely has a good ear for music at such an early age!
@@jaredmello Oh, you're welcome! I'm glad my comment brought some joy to others as well. ☺
I found Meg Myers & Kate Bush through this song blowing up via Stranger Things.
On YT, I came across so many artists who had done the cover, before the song blew up (again, it was an 80's hit). Most were okay, some were really good, but only one was truly otherworldly...to the point where, to me, it's even better than their original.
The original is an unabashed example of musical genius as that was the first record & sound that Kate Bush created and produced herself as a *_teenager_* .
But Meg's live performance that I saw, before this video came out post ST, immediately had me dive into Meg Myers music. I've been *_hooked_* ever since.
*the Fact the This Was Made by 2130 Children. that’s Amazing*
This track has been covered a quazillion times, but this version has some bad ass thickness to it and Meg's voice (tuned and all) is fn awesome.
I like the placebo version as well Meg's good too
the drums hit hardest on this one
Iv never heard this song before
It was as if Linda Perry herself covered the song. Great vocals!
the chromatics cover is the best by far
Hey i am one of those kids that eat their crayons.
Me and the Hyperborean Aryan boys making sure this cover stays relevant
She really channels Kate Bush like nobody’s business on this track. It’s a perfect modern interpretation.
I love her voice she sings with such intensity
Yes! I just heard this for the first time today and it took me back to the 80s and Kate bush. Beautiful vocals!!!
I like how Tom wrote his name.
😂
3:18 ish.
YES TOM
@mcdouche2 the fly in you profile picture confused me for a sec
Shit Tom is getting some recognition for his work. Sounds like a smart kid to me lol
That happens when an artist gives a great song her special touch - you gotta love it!
I remember finding this song 4+ years ago when it only had a few hundred thousand views. So happy that it blew up and other people get to hear it now!
here's to hoping Meg blows up with this now... too talented to not have more recognition
I've been waiting for this for years now
same! after hearing the song in stranger things i immediately thought about this since i love this cover and i was happy that Meg Myers would finally get more views!!
Song came out in 2019, if it hasn't happened yet it ain't gonna happen. She literally covered the song, and did nothing to make it her own. That's the definition of plagiarism
It was all over the radio up here in NY since it's release. Since stranger things everyone went back to the original. This was the first version i ever heard
@@nyreppin1 same, 92.3 has been playing it for a long while before stranger things came out lol
I remember this cover from radio play a few years back. This versions the best cover. Far more impactful use of drums. Her voice has range and a depth to match the heavyness of the message.
I remember it playing on Alt Nation for quite sometime. It's actually where I first heard it.
I came here to say this! I remember it playing a lot in the beginning of 2020! I used to arrive on PF and it would play nonstop!
For sure. Way more emotion in her vocals than the original and just a way better overall mix/master.
Thank you! I always thought Megs version was the best
Same, at like the end of 2019. Reminds me of nights at the bar.
I Love Megs Version of this song. She looks BEAUTIFUL in that make up and Her Voice has an Angelic Sound.
Better than the original! I met with this song back to 2019 - and I didn't knew it's original version until now :)
original is better
Thus version was all over the radio and tho I do appreciate the original I LOVE this version
This is nowhere near as good as the original.
She’s just coloured with skin tones for most of the video but there’s that odd time when she’s green or purple and I truly think that those children are what made this video come alive, as well as all the rest,
She was also blue
Yeah but then there are the kids who made her eyes red.
@@Gh0stChili lol xD
Gets 100s of kids to colour the same pictures then makes a stop motion out of them?
And a little cat face/ nose I see 😍😍
I literally listened to this song for 2.5 hours on repeat at the gym, no bullshit. I know I am insane.
Joe S that sux
😆😆😆😆😆😆
Don't worry, i do the same damn thing when I really like a song. The repeat button hates me lol.🤣🙌
It's on my repeat album on Spotify. I have listened to it so much.
Heard it at the gym and had it on repeat during my workouts last couple of days as well
I totally understand.
May God Bless Each And Everyone Of You
❤❤❤
Meg was way ahead of the curve with the revival of this song 😂
What a cool idea!
Makes me think back to the first MTV Music Video days and liquid television!
Like seeing Aha and their cool video back then.
Loving it 😁
😯
Probably Meg’s intention. She is pretty vocal about loving 90’s music and culture.
Liquid Television was awesome!!!

Shoutout to the kid who wrote “THE END” on the last frame
Hello “(of the rainbow)”
I have never heard of this artist before-but I’m a huge fan of the original. Honestly, I expected to be disappointed. I am blown away. The concept, execution, and new recorded version are all UNBELIEVABLE. So good.
Do yourself a favor and check out Meg Myers' original material. You won't be disappointed.
Check out her other music. It's fantastic! She pours herself out in all of her songs and you will feel it.
I had the exact same reaction. I'm totally in love.
Best version of this song, best video. Period
This is quite possibly the best remake of this song, perhaps even better than the original video version.
This is 6969x worse than the original one
@@agiftedbubblebee6056 - Well, at this point in time, at least 23 people disagree with you, but you're entitled to your opinion.
I do like this version more, mainly because the instrumental sounds better to me.
To me this version IS so much more better than the original. Don't get me wrong, the original is amazing too but this one just reaches hights that lack from the original. Perhaps different era recording equipment have something to do with it but anyway.
Anyone for Placebo?
The aggression in her voice makes me feel so powerful
She's really good at that!.
Same here.
Absolutely.
yes i agree (;
how can you tell with the affects and auto tone?
Anyone else self-quarantining right now listening to this to keep their spirits up? Thank you Meg, this is our anthem right now!
Richard Bartlett hell yes
Richard, I thought just that this afternoon. I am quarantined in Brazil with my mother, afraid of what is to come. I listened to this song on the radio for days and only today did I discover who sings and listened to it several times and I thought "this song will mark my period of seclusion in a good way"
:)
yes
Richard Bartlett oddly I just found it a few day’s ago, and it DOES perk the mood up. Lol. Hope everyone is staying healthy!!!!

Glory to Europe and its sons
It's fun randomly pausing and seeing these kids art.
Just remember people, Kate Bush is the original *Singer, Songwriter & Producer* of this song, So thanks for maintain the original structure of this song, that's a great cover
I agree, great cover!!
@Steph SMT
I still blast Kate Bush all day long, and I grew up listening to her when she was topping charts all over Europe.
Wait, so you're saying Kate Bush did a cover of this Meg Meyers song? ;)
@@ksaavedra_Immortalbelovedmusic No she didnt said that ;)
I think everyone is forgetting Placebo’s cover of this song which is the version that received the most attention and brought the song to fame, at least for those of us who grew up in the second half of the 90’s to the early 2000’s.
Placebo’s version has a melancholic darkness to it that has never lost its shine over the years. This version, whilst lighter, has a different style to it that remixes both the lighter aspects of Kate Bush’s original and some touches of the darker aspects of Placebo’s version, creating this kind of 80’s synth girl rock pop aesthetic that drives this version.
I think Placebo and Meg Kelly’s versions are the best. Kate Bush’s original hasn’t aged as well as some might think whilst other covers have either not tried anything new or sound terrible. Placebo is good for the entire modern reworking of the song for a new generation whilst this version carries the spirit of Kate Bush with it but updates it considerably.
Personally, I’d take this version as the Kate Bush original and Placebo’s as the cover, if you convert them through a modern mindset.
the kid that kept coloring her eyes red is the real mvp
The real question is, how come have I never heard of Meg Myers until now?
my brother passed away from cancer last June, i always listen to this song and feel so guilty. i think about swapping places. i wonder if i'd have the guts to actually do it. he was the strongest person i've ever known. i'd like to think i would swap places with him any day, he was so happy, he had a daughter and a wife, he had so much more to live for.
You would swap places because you love him so much,but his time was up and he had accomplished what he was set here to do and your journey still has things to be done.
I can feel the pain in your comments but the love and happy memories of your brother will help soothe that pain in time.
Im so sorry about your loss, I hope you find peace and comfort
Best wishes for you and your family. So sorry for your loss
Im so sorry for your loss my condolences
😭
This cover is so underrated
10 million views is underrated??
@@hysteria008 compared to others, yes. and 10 millon isen't that big as others.
@@RealBoredPerson And compared to others, 10 millions views is huge!
not really
Don't be so harsh. People often confuse "underrated" with "underappreciated". It's just semantics.
Diehard fans of this version are almost instantly able to recognize her voice and this music video. It's possibly one of the best covers ever.
I heard this cover before the original because i always heard it on the radio
Years from now, those kids will really appreciate how they had the opportunity to help on a project this cool
Best cover of the song. A modern sounding version but still keeps the tone of the original.
You guys were ahead of the curve on this one.
i actuallly like this more than the original song
I adore the song, but the way you did the music video was pure genius. You constantly amaze me with your creativity and willingness to take chances for your vision. Absolutely lovely.
if you like this kind of creativity, check out K.Flay- Giver and High Enough Lyric videos
@@dorika85 I agree. I've become a big fan of K Flay and love her simply drawn videos quite a lot.
I'll admit she's pretty good
this was great ya know
I love the fact that she involved so many kids with this. It's clear from the colouring but my God is it endearing
I've liked Kate Bush for years and years. This is just a spectacular cover with it's own character and strengths.
As an 80’s kid - this version is better.
That is one of the best bridges ever
We often say new versions aren't as good as original, but this one is very cool and keeps the Kate Bush's vibe. Good work!
Sounds exactly like Kate Bush. At least she could have done something that was her own style.
@@tvtubetelle I don't think so. she improved the Kate Bush original by being vocally more powerful, which is perfect for the song. nothing bad about improving an already great song.
Ha! No one sounds exactly like Kate Bush. An impossibility.
I enjoyed it, people always say that a cover has to be remarkably different to the original but there isn't a written rule that it has to be. I love covers that remain true to the original whilst adding a little spice to alter the flavour ever so slightly and I love covers that throw out all the ingredients and start over fresh. I think this is a fantastic interpretation personally, it's her experience of the remarkable song and powerful lyrics with a contemporary contextualisation.
Yes, this exceeds the original
Its so cool when a song is your favorite for YEARS & it suddenly becomes popular & you hear it all the time. I've listened to this song on repeat for years- unknowingly protecting myself from Vecna 🤣I was so genuinely excited to hear this song in Stranger Things & knew that both Kate & Meg were about to have good fortune come their way. Well deserved ladies ♡ grateful Stranger Things is bringing back the 80s & 90s, when I grew up!
Lol
💯
I suffered the grief from losing Jenks in Warehouse 13 with Track and Fields' version
Came across the song because of Placebo. Being a fan of Tears for Fears, ended up loving the original too. :)
Lol, "unknowingly protecting myself from Vecna"
I love when i find a cover of this song from before 2022, because somebody legitimately loved the song, not because of the hype
Meg Myers STILL OWNS the BEST cover ;-)
in the "coloring artitst" part at the end it says "one anonymous little boy". for some reason that gets to me.
Really I Didn't Notice That Maybe That's Why She Says She'll Make A Deal With God To Swap Their Places With No Problems Could She Be Talking About A Child or Love One She Lost For Them To Be Alive And She's In Heaven💁💁💁
@@keneshiaallah795 this is a cover of a song by Kate bush.

Yes I listened to the original version How ever I enjoy this one much Better I Can't Stop Playing This Song Still Listening Today 😜😂😜
i wonder if he related to the anonymous mother in the special thanks section, hmmm.
Maybe because his name is literally one anonymous little boy
This synth was everything this song needed to be perfect. It max the dramatization of the vocals very well.
Both songs are good tho!
This one is the best
max😉
How the duck did this lady coordinate 2000 children to draw out her whole music video lol Meg Myers and her staff are badass lol
I grew up listening to Kate Bush a bit as a kid. So I already knew and still love the original masterpiece. But today, Friday 08-26-2022 at 9:43am is the first time I've heard this cover of it.
I heard of you before Meg Myers but haven't listened to your music yet. I should have listened to my friend's sooner about listening to your shit lol. This is now my favorite version. You have a new fan that can't wait to be see you live!!
Some songs are good, some are haunting in a way that makes you feel like your soul has been in contact with another soul. This song lays me bare and opens old wounds
well said
This comment is spot on.
I’m so out of touch with how I feel. But, what you said made me realize this song reconnected me with my deceased wife. Thank you for that.
Heh…. I another person that seems to have been through the same amount as I have.
A comment like this is only made by someone that has been hurt, and hurt others too.
Shame and pain, love and forgiveness, suffering and joy… this version of this song brings those feelings to that type of soul. Hope you’re doing well now, bro. I have a feeling you are.
Listening to your cover of "Running Up That Hill" for the past 3+ months since it's been released have been nothing short of an amazing experience for me and now that this awesome video is here, it just deepens and intensifies my love for this song! Meg, your explanation of what this video represents is so beautiful and I hope that we can all use this amazing work of art to make positive and healthy changes in our own lives and in others. You have done an incredible job staying true to Kate's original and yet you made your cover stand out with your unbelievable energy, enthusiasm, creativity, and passion! Add the fact that you shared your vision with the wonderfully talented, young, up and coming artists at H.O.L.A., just made this even better! I'm so proud of you, Meg!
Edwin S : 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 well said!!
Cheers
If you love this one... Listen to Placebo.. Running up that hill❤
This is really beautifully put! ❤️
King C.O.D : I like their version too. But this one just blows me away!! I was 16 when Kate’s original came out and I loved it immediately! It is very rare for a cover to be better than the original! For me this one is!!
Cheers
Kristi McGowan/ Darko’s Cellar Door I completely agree with you about Placebo's cover - it's good and I personally think that Meg's version is worlds better as well. She has the energy and soul that really brings this song alive. I've listened to many covers of 'RUTH' and have yet to find one that gets the heart stirring like Meg's cover does.
Best version I've heard of this song to date.
OMG the animation, the lip-synch, this must must have taken FOREVER to edit!!! I love the wild colors, most use green leaves, but then others use random purples and blues and oranges make everything look so surreal, kids have amazing imaginations. Thanks creating this masterpiece!
