    I remember listening to this for the first time as a teen when it had just come out on MTV, it made me cry and back then I didn't even speak English. One day, 15 years later, I hear it again. By then I have finished a degree in English and I am married to an anglophone, living in an English speaking country...and I am driving, the song comes on, I understand each word and I have to park the car. That's how much it moved me. Brilliant choice, thank you!

    At the time this song was released, I remember it related to the shutdown of the mining industry in England by the Thatcher government and the terrible impact it had on the miners and families. Lines such as "never thought I could be effected", "for every job, so many men, so many men no-one needs". Song beautifully expresses the pain of the time.

      Kelly, I love that you found Kate. Her song, Cloudbusting, is my favourite song of songs.
      I studied (Jazz) singing 20+ years ago and sang some of her songs in my exams: Babooshka (we made a swing version of it), and The Wedding List.
      She wrote songs like "The man with the child in his eyes" when she was in her mid-teens.
      She also did dance, hence her own, expressive and somewhat eccentric choreographies in her videos of, for example, Wuthering Heights.
      I "fell" for Donald Sutherland (the white haired president actor in The Hunger Games) watching the Cloudbusting video.
      My sister had her 1985 album "Hounds of Love", which I, as an 11 year old girl, listened to on cassette tape for hours and hours, just turning the tape over when one side was finished, again and again.
      Kate is for me very well illustrated on her Never Forever album cover (oh, those decades of proper album cover ART!). Go, have a look. And listen....

      So happy that you have found out about the genius that's Kate Bush, I'm sure that you will have a wonderful time listening to her albums. She started writing songs from when she was 12 years ago, "The Man With The Child In His Eyes" was written when she was 13, which is just crazy. She was a trailblazer for women artists in so many ways in the UK her very first single Wuthering Heights went to number 1, it was first time ever that a song written by a female singer had ever done that! As for me I was there from the start, my advantage being I live in the UK and in the same part of the country where she grew up - showing my age now 😀😀 - unfortunately I missed her first live tour but I was extremely lucky to get a ticket to one of her "Before The Dawn" series of concerts in 2015, when she performed live again. It was a fantastic experience and I'm sure that you will have a fantastic time listening to her.

    "So" was possibly the best album of the 80's, and certainly one of the most musically significant. Peter's voice is incredible: no other qualifiers needed. Kate too. I saw him on this tour in my favorite venue, Merriweather Post Pavilion in MD, and it's still one of the top three shows I've ever seen. On the song "In Your Eyes" (also from So) he has the famous Senegalese singer Youssou N'Dour and his band join him, and for the concert they were the opening act, but also came on stage for the encore and the combined bands played an hour long encore! Peter also did his crowd-surfing act during "Lay Your Hands on Me" (that must give his security guys nightmares). Please do more from this album! My favorite is "Red Rain" but the big hit bangers were "Big Time" and "Sledgehammer". "Mercy Street" is another beautiful ballad. Thanks for listening and sharing!

      The song was _inspired_ by the US Depression, in particular the photographs of Dorothea Lange. It had particular resonance when released as Britain was experiencing high unemployment in the restructuring of the post-industrial economy. So yes and no as to the underlying meaning; the disruptive effects on people and relationships was certainly relevant to the times but the direct inspiration was drawn from a different period.

    This song has become an anthem for guys separated from their wives during jail time but it was written about high levels of unemployment in the UK. Peter Gabriel has stated in interviews that he didn't have guys doing jail time thinking about their wives in mind when he wrote it. His ex-wife stated at the time the song was released that the video upset her because she and Peter were getting divorced at the time too. There's always been speculation when people saw all that hugging that Peter and Kate were more than good friends.

      Let me tell you, mate, Kate is not at all photogenic. I know her a bit and when you see her in the flesh you realise that although she looks good in pictures and videos in real life she is heart-stoppingly beautiful!

    Beautiful song written during great unemployment in the 80s. Kate Bush is a unique talent. Slightly off on a tangent the guy who just plastered my ceiling was a musician back in the day and worked with Kate Bush, he said how nice and unassuming she was.

    In 2016, Sting and Peter Gabriel went on tour together ("Rock Paper Scissors"). I went with my sister and her husband because I love Sting's music, but by the time the concert was over, I was a huge Peter Gabriel fan. He was so amazing throughout the evening, just his unique voice and haunting music and it was all so moving. By the time they did "In Your Eyes," I was crying, it was so beautiful. Gave me chills. (And what was even cooler - Sting came out and sang backup vocals for that song!) He's a talented artist, no question about it.

    My Idol, Kate Bush! When I was 19 people called me Kate Bush and when I was getting my portfolio Acting shots done, my photographer told me that he photographed her for some promotion pictures! He showed me pics and said we had facial similarities ,..! You can imagine I floated down the road that day!

    Thank you Jay for playing this song. My all time favorite since the 80s. The message is so important. My favorite part is when Kate Bush comes in with the words "rest your head... you worry too much..." she comes in with this part at the peak of the eclipse. The eclipse adds that extra dramatic effect. I love that part. It's a if she says it directly to us telling us we worry too much. Which is so true. Don't give up... I love this song and happy you reacted to it.

    She sings backup vocals in French on Gabriel’s ‘Games Without Frontiers’. A better song in my opinion and the comic relief when you hear others sing what they think are the lyrics is priceless.

    This was a song I played for my boyfriend a lot. He was very sick with liver disease and Parkinson's. We had this kind of relationship. We clung to each other. Hugs were everything to us.
    Alan passed away 11/7 at 3:10am. I was holding his hand, telling him how much I love him. One second here. One second gone.
    Thank you for this reaction. It was the first time I've listened to this song since his passing. ♥️

  • @llothar68
    @llothar68 Před 3 lety +1

    Just this time i realized that there is a sun eclipse in the background, it's covers the sun at the most depressing point of the song and then goes back to full sunlight again when the song ends.

    Goddam song made me cry. I've gone through all manner of mental health issues down the years and now at just 51, I can hardly walk anymore after years of doing sports, soccer at a high level, and then sang in bands down the years and one by one they've been taken away from me by my spine which is giving up on me and I've had to retire from working, sport, music, everything. With everything I've had to stop it's like another hammer to my head, another nail in my coffin.
    I've started to even hide from my family, and stay in my bedroom away from everybody. This song, and Coldplay "Fix You" both are songs I gage my mental health at that time to see how I am in myself. The quicker I break down, the worse I know I am.
    Thank you for reviewing songs. I know them all as I'm getting old lol, but still some I've not heard in a long time. Coldplay FIX YOU. If you've not reviewed it, do it. I'm trying to think of one you might not have reviewed yet but you've done ALOT now so it's hard to think of one. Please stop doing tearjerkers as they aren't good for me lol. Ok, I know one to review for you. Glasvegas "Daddy's Gone". Because they are Scottish you may find it tough to understand some lyrics so either get them up or find it with lyrics. My Father left when I was 3 and It's one all children, especially boys will relate to about Father's who've abandoned them. Either that one of Queensryche "Bridge". Same subject.
