- Official music video for the single "There Goes a Tenner" written and produced by British singer Kate Bush.
It was the third single from the album The Dreaming and was released on 2 November 1982. The single was only released in the UK. - Hudba
"The Dreaming" is definitely Kate's most experimental album..a sonically stunning (headphones!), quirky cornucopia of brilliance!
Cool tip! I own the record for 20 years now and always played it on speakers.
@@jeroenfigee Trust me, it will be an aural treat!
@@PJBubbles :-) yeah.. definitely with my sennheiser hd-580 !
@@jeroenfigee I think your ears will be pleased!
I always play this album on my speakers.
Put SatInYourLap on, on my 'cans' and immediately identify that she used a whip
in the rhythm.
That reminded me that in an interview in a magazine I have
she told she wanted no hi-hats and no cymbals in this record. So they
really tried everything to replace them with samples and household stuff. :-)
The stereo image is great !
Love the acoustic bass in PullOutThePin.
Heavily use of stereo chorussen on her vocals :-)
The dreaming has that same: 'lets have fun with the stereo imaging'
same as the openings track.
'All the love' is a track that could have come straight of NeverForEver.
Loved listing to this on headphones. Great tip. :-)
ps - if I may. . . , I always enjoyed the stero image and mixes of Nik Kershaws;
The Riddle & Human Racing. Those are in the same league.
She is so theatrical, its like every song of her is a full act, every single song feels like she is a New character with a story of its own
Especially army dreamers
@@albro666 ❤
♥️
yes! that's why i love her work
She is a real storyteller. Something that is typically more usual for men (Now, as it was before, women tend to be more commercially successful with love songs), and she's one of the best
I played the hell out of my copy of The Dreaming. An absolutely genius weird emotionally devastating work of art. All these years later it's still fantastic. Nothing from those days compares. Kate Bush is timeless.
I really didnt like it when i first heard it in the 80s. It took a long time for me to get used to it.
Such an underrated track and underrated album! The world was not ready for Kate's amazingly brilliant weirdness, and I don't think it ever will be! She will always be several steps ahead of the rest......Kate Bush you total genius.
+gaffaheart Love this song! :D
The world was not brilliant enough to appreciate her. At least there are the few of us that love and cherish her! We probably live just a bit happier in a way!

Still pretty much my favourite album from her
The way she says "job sussed" scratches my brain in the best way. I truly LOVE kate bush
sus
@@_oxygenfox how ?
@@_oxygenfoxsounds like she says sussed not Sus.
“We got the job sussed”
I believe, in England, sussed means figured out, taken care of or plans made for…
I was lucky enough to be there when Kate made this video....she even signed one of the tenners for me.
She is so nice 😘
Tell us more please! I want to know!
Ben Mo Hi .....a friend of mines girlfriend worked in the industry and her husband was a video director and they let me hang around all day watching them film different bits of the video...I wasn't allowed to bother Kate during the day but stood next to her when she watched some playback..I couldn't believe my luck 😜
After she finished filming I asked her if I could have her autograph and followed her into her caravan (lights round the mirror etc🙂)
I told her I'd seen her at the Palladium and Hammersmith Odeon (as it was then) and asked if I could give her a kiss..she said yes and I got a hug as well.
I lost my voice after that and didn't wash the lipstick off for days 😜
She was a beautiful and kind person and she still is gorgeous.
Unfortunately I couldn't get tickets for her last tour but I'll never forget meeting her.
Sorry if my reply is so long.
Cheers Mark 😜
Man that is super cool, do you still have that tenner?
Wow. I can't even imagine meeting her! Having loved her for over 3 decades, to have met her would've felt surreal & fittingly, like a dream!
You're extremely fortunate! Really enjoyed reading your wonderful & amazing experience!
Lucky bloke!
The Dreaming is such an underrated album of great genius.
It's my favourite album of Kate's.
@@Missjunebugfreak It's mine, also.
Absolutely nothing touches it.
It’s not ‘underrated’
Who underrates it? Hounds of love is better though, the second half and cloudbusting especially is just on another earth
It's my favorite album of all time. Nothing has ever floored me like it has. It quite literally changed my life
Straight up one of the best song writers that ever existed
the way she says solicitor is so satisfying
R.I.P. Del, what a man! Kate’s music will never be quite the same.
A million imitators. Only one Kate Bush.
how are we gonna turn artists being inspired by someone as great as kate bush into a drag. cmon now
@@123123sora there can never be another Kate Bush, and people can be inspired yes, but never another Kate Bush
@@ethanpumford752I agree with you
If I am a musician (not a one) and if Kate is a influence to my music I still can make music inspired on Kate
But I will never be the next Kate
Marina and the diamonds is inspired by Kate but she's not the next Kate bush
The Dreaming feels like a bunch of demented vignettes strung together and this video captures that perfectly.
Her amazing face tells everything. You can see she's totally dedicated to making art back then. The Dreaming is her best LP without question. Nothing from 1982 comes near it.
Yeah. She totally nails the theatrical expressions of the lyrics. I love to watch this video and I absolutely love this song. And Kate is not hard to look at at all.
I think Hounds Of Love and Sky of Honey from Aerial are her masterpieces.
You know that weird, awkward dance you dance when you're alone at home and would be mortified if someone walked in on you doing?
This is the song to that.
icarus212001 i feel it
Imagine me frantically reaching to grab floating fibrous currency: that's what Kate is magically warbling about for everyone's pleasure; now go to bed, fivers.
When all else fails, do the move Kate does at 2:33
EXACTLY! lmao
The perfect strange dance for a delightfully strange song by a wonderfully strange singer-songwriter-dancer ... definitely a tenner ..
The bass is SO good on this track, really masterful and fun
The Bass has always been quite an important ingredient of her Music, too! :-)
@@mightyV444 Fretless?
@@RosePetal17 - Yes, especially from her 3rd album 'Never Forever' onwards it's pretty much all fretless bass, both electric and acoustic/upright, including this here song 🙂
I love how this song starts out as a quirky but unexceptional Kate Bush song, then from 2:15 on, it suddenly transforms into one of my favorite songs of all time. I've listened to this song probably over 100 times and the transition at "One of the rabble needs mummy... The government will never find their money!" excites me as much as the first time I heard it. One of the most genius productions I've ever heard in my life.
Totally agree. Many of my favourite Kate songs have a change of direction 'The Fog' 'The Song of Solomon' being two that I love. On 'There Goes A Tenner' I love the way the line 'Not until they let me see my solicitor' runs straight into
'Oh, I remember' on that key change.
exactly!!!!!!!
It's weird this song was sort of a flop for Kate. It's super fucking good.
"It's about amateur robbers who have only done small things, and this is quite a big robbery that they've been planning for months, and when it actually starts happening, they start freaking out. They're really scared, and they're so aware of the fact that something could go wrong that they're paranoid and want to go home."
Kate Bush There Goes A Tenner is one of my unheard and personal favorite song
This woman's artistry is of another caliber. No one else like her.
She's the best by far
Her singing voice got much deeper after her first 3 albums but that doesn't change a thing. She still has an amazing voice and writes absolute masterpieces.
Stephen's YTP's Yes, and that's so true, even today .... but for me it has been about the lyrics and the use of music. Unpredictable, sometimes perverse, but always ..... Kate Bush!
Flo Jo I completely agree. :)
She has such timeless songs but you really gotta listen to the full albums to appreciate it.
Hello pooper!
I think she was a smoker
2:37 “A star in strange ways”
Oh that is clever Kate
i remember my mom playing this for me as a kid :( i miss those days singing as theatrically as we could
You had a seriously cool mom.
my mom made do house chores (including cooking and cleaning the toilet etc etc)
Probably one of Kate Bush's most underrated songs. I first heard it in 2014 and took an instant liking to it.
From her most underrated album! This one came out a few years before her classic and very successful Hounds of Love album did, but was a flop. At the time critics and a lot of the public thought she had finally lost it and gone slightly mad! (okay I'm embellishing a bit) But if you listen to it today there's some very interesting and innovative things going on in there. And without it her famous followup would not of been what it was.
Well, time is perhaps the only fair way to judge a piece of work and The Dreaming has aged really well. Fact is it has been re-evaluated as one of Kate Bush's best work and it's included in the "1001 Albums You Have to Hear Before You Die" book I have and ranks 2nd behind Hounds of Love on BestEverAlbums - sort of an Imdb for artists and their albums.
Artists like Björk and Big Boi of Outkast include it in their list of favorite albums and I recall reading that other artists either used it as an inspiration or spent a lot of time listening to it back then.
Apparently EMI - who up until that point had let Kate had her way and pretty much granted her creative freedom - heard the finished album and refused to release it, urging her to rework it, include more "hit singles" and leave out some songs. Fortunately for us she refused to compromise her work which she had put a lot of effort in. Since she didn't have her own recording studio back then she needed a lot of time and money producing it and I can imagine her disappointment when they nearly vetoe'd it. You probably know all this.
Personally I think The Dreaming is her first truly good album and *the* one that established her as a serious artist, rather than just another pop princess that was popular. Too many people confuse quantity for quality. While Never For Ever was innovative in its use of the Fairlight Sampler its an uneven album which does sound dated in places, even for its time. Some songs sound more 1975 than 1980 - which is understandable since Kate was more inspired by musicians she listened to growing up rather than her contemporaries.
While most prefer Hounds of Love, I consider The Dreaming her best album. Why? Well, I love the B-side, i.e. "The Ninth Wave" but the A-side is a bit too overproduced and polished in my ears.
The Dreaming is edgy, raw, avantgarde, unfiltered and genuine. If it's done well I love such things. It touches your soul. It was a risky album for her but I believe it was a pivotal point or at least a crossroad in her career.
Since it was a clear departure to what she had released up until that point I can totally imagine that people thought she had lost her mind back then. It was not the Kate Bush they were used to.
Kate herself admits to having listened to The Dreaming in its entirity many years after it had been released and her older self found it an "angry album". I'd say "Yes, goddamit. You were an angry young woman and I love that. Anger is a very genuine and honest emotion. It's sincere. The ability to transform that into a great album is a rare gift."
While I love her later work I wish she had released a "The Dreaming 2" (whatever it would have been called) either a year after or during that time she had her 12 year hiatus. I understand this was what she had in mind had The Dreaming been a commercial and critical (they were polarized in 1982) success. Unfortunately it wasn't and she scratched that plan. That being said I believe some of that ended up in "The Ninth Wave" on Hounds of Love.
I believe she mellowed a bit too fast and by "Sensual World" that was obvious. Most likely she realized she was at an age "angry, young woman" wasn't the image she wanted to convey. Unlike certain other artists she doesn't try to act an age she isn't. Maybe she's a bit too self-conscious too.
As for "There Goes a Tenner". I first heard it in the summer of 2014, which btw was the time I started listening to her as an artist. I'm the "wrong generation" who grew up during her abscence from all media. There Goes a Tenner was one of my favorite tracks on The Dreaming that summer and I think it was *the* song I played the most from that album. Only later while reading up about it I learned that i had been a flop back in 1982 and even failed to chart at all. Bit of shock that was. In hindsight it makes sense. It's not single-material and I'm amazed Kate chose to release that one as a single in the first place. Perhaps because it's fairly short compared to the other tracks on the album.
This video here hold up well too considering it was made during the time not much money and time was used shooting them. If I know my music history correct I think that only the likes of Duran Duran used expensive 35mm film (used for big budget motion pictures) and hired proper film directors to direct them back in 1982,- which sort of was smack in the middle of this much maligned "the video sells the artist" era of MTV. If they only knew what they would see 30 years later...
Long story short: The Dreaming is one of the most overlooked and underrated albums ever. An acquired taste, yes, but for the connoisseur indispensable. Hope I didn't get too carried away. :)
McLarenMercedes Not at all. Its nice to see someone from a younger generation getting into her music. Nowadays she's unfortunately a bit of a forgotten artist. Despite her influence on a lot of other artists that came after her.
Well, I don't think it is wrong to call The Dreaming a bit mad, but it is mad in the best of ways.
Nowadays she's unfortunately a bit of a forgotten artist, You sure about that??She was on the news and many other places bout her first tour in over 35 years as she only ever did one tour In the 70's and the rest she did music video's and other TV interviews etc as you know anywayBut that there was loads of media for that, And also other things like her house in Kent being sold- The person that bought if off her back in 2003
In a 1000 years, there will never be another Kate Bush.
what I love about Kate’s songs is that they always felt like story tales to me, each song is unique, and they teleported me into a different fantasy world. you don’t see many people musically playing with the mind, in sounds, words, the way she would.
The melancholy shift in the song when she sings “ooh I remember……” genius
This song has been in my head for 37 years.
Discovered Kate in 1984 with this brilliant album masterpiece!!!No one like her.. so glad ST is introducing her genius to a whole new generation!!
Discovered her in 2014. Yes, decades later but she still made a huge impression on me.
The Dreaming is the album that had a beautiful yet haunting quality.
The vocal range that Kate demonstrates here is outstanding - as a piece of humour playing with words, mockery and cadence alike. All that and then dip it in chorography as well.
So few artists have covered Kate's songs and the reason why is simple. None of them can.
There's only one artist who can, and that's Kate herself.
She's a musical treasure and always will be.
In years to come, her songs will be right up there with the best artists you can ever think of.
It’s true. No one gets near to her. She’s an ethereal beauty, a real genius of vibration ❤❤❤
❤ the sense of adventchahh :)
Kate Bush is one of my favorite rabbit holes that I fell into.
2:38 boys be vibin in the middle of robbery
DANG A FAMOUS CZcamsR??? OKAYYYYYY I DONT KNOW HOW NO ONE ELSE HAS REPLIED IN TWO YEARS! LOVE YOUR WORK AND KATE BUSH
Kate Bush is the best 😊
She fanum on my gyatt till i skibidi
Such unique weirdness that Kate Bush has that allows makes me to think those emotions of thrill and makes me appreciate memories in life.
My favorite Kate Bush album and her most inventive and quirkiest. Love this track!
I used to listen to this album on cassette in the middle of the night
This is ridiculously good, my mind is blown
Pure genius. I love and adore her like life itself. Absolutely timeless legend.
This song alone is where Marina And The Diamonds wrote all The Family Jewels from.
@@Amanda-dg9zj Marina always considered Kate Bush as an inspiration for her music and she even said that Love + Fear was inspired by kate, Madonna and Fionna Apple
:O oh, that's so interesting. I like Marina.
I was a Marina fan before I became a Kate Bush fan and after a while I was like hm, I wonder if Marina has listened to Kate Bush because although they're quite different there is something in Marina's music that reminds me of Kate and now it makes a lot of sense that I love them both. There seems to be quite a lot of people who are big fans of both of them!
@@tove8719 KATE+MARINA STANS RISEEEEEE
@@primadonna5214 yess! My two favourite musicians
Brilliant. She’s a true eccentric genius. Love how she just does her own thing. It’s all about her art. Not publicity hungry. Respect.
That CS-80 starting at 0:46 in the bridge sounds quite beautiful...shades of “Blade Runner”.
Time stops
I absolutely love this, so weird.
I agree Kate has always been eccentric
I know right? So cool.
Me too.
First time I've heard it, its wonderfully weird and cool.
So... At first, I didn't understand her. I thought it was just...... weird? Too much?.... But... I'm so glad I stumbled across her music. She's absolutely amazing. My jaw was on the ground the entire time I listened to this song. It's brilliance. Everything in it is just as ridiculous as the next. Sooooo many female artists are in debited to her for paving the way - from Fiona Apple to Nikki Minaj. Kate did all of that first and she did it better. Her music was one of my greatest discoveries.
This music sounds like sounds from the depths of a forest
anybody who talks shit about Kate or thinks her music isn't any good is a clueless idiot. Love everything she's ever recorded. i love this period of her music. it was weird ,theatrical, abstract and sometimes kooky as hell, but totally genius. Kate is the greatest ever..
Totally agreed! Often when I look at reviews of her albums, the ones I prefer like The Dreaming, are panned...The Dreaming, Never For Ever, and Hounds of Love are my top 3. Especially The Dreaming...just so amazing.
izzygrant81 "The Dreaming" is included in "1001 Albums you have to hear before you die." and that book is compiled by well-respected critics. Artists today influenced by Kate Bush said they find the album to be one of their favorites. It also made the list "50 most underrated albums of all time".
"The Dreaming" may have been panned back in 1982. It is not that hard to see why. It took a couple of listening sessions for myself to discover its brilliance. It grows on you. Not an "accessible" album but it has stood the test of time. I know because I only started listening to Kate Bush two months ago through a friend. Neither of us were even born when "The Dreaming" was released.
I agree with your top 3 btw. In my mind she peaked with these. The later albums were good (and still better than most others being released at that time) but not quintessentially "Kate Bush" in my mind.
The Dreaming is, how should I put it, dreamy?
A clueless idiot is one explanation but I think that I would need to use some stronger expletives for any person that would dare to disparage Kate Bush. I even love the modern stuff. 50 Words for Snow really is an epic and experienced record that proves that true ability and talent lasts forever.
Paul Allen I agree that she peaked after "Hounds of Love/The Ninth Wave," at least for me. There are definitely a few gems on every album but in terms of a full album experience, yeah. I adored "Aerial" when it came out because it seemed to reignite the same emotions I had felt listening to those top 3. And like you, I think I was 2 or 3 when "The Dreaming" was released. I discovered Kate in high school around '98 thanks to a VH1 show on the top 100 women in music or something. I had never heard of her and intrigued, I immediately sped to Tower Records and picked up "Hounds of Love." I was hooked!
No need to use (more) insults toward mentally challenged.
This is such a unique song and video and I love it! Can’t believe someone can even make a catchy song that seems to be about a heist but hey that’s the genius of Kate Bush🤷🏽♂️😅
This album on repeat while on mushrooms 🍄...weeeee
The records store I bought this album from is called The Mushroom. True story.
Classic joint
That splendid fretless bass!
Oh! I just read that's actually Del Palmer! I hadn't known he played fretless, too!
I love the last line and the last scene of the video. I vote for Kate!
I just love this song so much
To whoever said it's like "a crappy madness", you obviously don't get it, and that's fine, but it truly is your loss.
@Simon Simon You'd be surprised some people really are idiots. I sent one of my friends a song by Kate and they said it was shit,
Needless to say they were blocked.

Genius.
Okay, remember
Okay, remember
That we have just allowed
Half an hour
To get in, do it, and get out
The sense of adventure
Is changing to danger
The signal has been given
I go in
The crime begins
My excitement
Turns into fright
All my words fade
What am I gonna say?
Mustn't give the game away
We're waiting
We're waiting
We're waiting
We got the job sussed
This shop's shut for business
The lookout has parked the car
But kept the engine running
Three beeps means trouble's coming
I hope you remember
To treat the gelignite tenderly for me
I'm having dreams about things
Not going right
Let's leave in plenty of time tonight
Both my partners
Act like actors
You are Bogart
He is George Raft
That leaves Cagney and me
(What about Edward G.?)
We're waiting
We're waiting
We're waiting
You blow the safe up
Then all I know is I wake up
Covered in rubble, one of the rabble
Needs mummy (what's all this then?)
The government will never find the money (what's all this then?)
I've been here all day
A star in strange ways
Apart from a photograph
They'll get nothing from me
Not until they let me see my solicitor
Oh, I remember
That rich, windy weather
When you would carry me
Pockets floating
In the breeze
Oh, there goes a tenner
Hey, look, there's a fiver
There's a ten-shilling note
Remember them?
That's when we used to vote for him
Whenever people talk to me about an original and brave artist they have discovered, I ask them if they've ever come across Kate Bush. This woman is a force of nature, and if she ever feels fear it doesn't show in her art,.
Probably my favorite KB video. I always love this song and its enigmatic final lines, and think the video is a perfect match.
It was not experimental at all. It was simply something totally new, no one saw it coming, and no one knew Kate Bush was this genius to produce music so differently than everyone else around. The Dreaming is like every other Kate Bush album, a masterpiece, and is one of the best albums ever made.
Kate intended The Dreaming to be "very experimental and cinematic". And it *is*.
The comments in this video are sheer genius. Seriously. Just take a moment to read down them. All human life is there.
She is so glorious, one of a kind gal. Her music still sounds so fresh.
Her genius is being so utterly unafraid to experiment.
Yes, and what she creates is damn great 😍
Kate Bush a brilliant beautiful weirdo.
A kick ars song and with Kate speaking in very distinctive British accent! Well done Kate! Just love it!
It's an English accent.
@@rnw2739specifically it's Mockney.
I love how my most listened to music in the 80s is now back in fashion, not that it ever went away
So do I. I'm happy that the new generation is listening to her 😊
👉 *Kate Bush's **_The Dreaming,_** groundbreaking!*
Kate wrote and produced this amazingly innovative
album herself. She was 24 years old! Genius.......
One of my top 5 favorite Kate songs! Never saw the video til this morning, I enjoyed it!
Kate Bush does Ska..can see a Madness influence
LOVE this song, one of my fav songs of her's. But im not english, i never knew what tenner meant LOL I thought she was saying tenor 😂
I thought that for over 10 years myself, too.
Rae We also used to call it a "tenner" in Australia, before decimal currency was introduced in 1966.
Apart from a photograph they'll get nothing from me until they let me see

My solicitor.
She's the best at what she does the best.
This song is awesome
Her eyes are like marbles. Lovely!
im only 20 and i cant get enough of kate bush! grew up with her :)
You cant get enough of Kate's bush ?? YOU DIRTY GIRL !
really...
Abbii knowles This is the internet, what do you expect.
John Doe very true
Abbii knowles her voice is like a drug once you listen you cant get enough
I love you Kate! Digging all these fantastic tunes
I can't believe I used to not care for this song, but now it's one of my favorites on the album. It's just brilliant. I love this video, it's like an action movie!
Sublime song from a sublime album
Released as a single in the UK in November 1982.
first time i'm seeing the video. she's brilliant as always. i had never heard her when i came across a copy of THE DREAMING at a used record store in hollywood. in the back of my mind i had remembered i read a positive review of her and bought the record. this song would be the first of so many loved by the genius kate.
She is mad! That's very creative madness. Do not cure!
Madness madness they call it gladness
Of course, it's gladness! Pure art! But I'm still quite sure: I was right. She is very slightly mad. Definitely!
0:45 - 1:07 that sound is glorious..
I love this song and album so much that it hurts.
Kate is GREAT~! (Pardon, but really, it just says is all...so simply.) Love her...and now i listen to help me thru a bull shit (uh, another) hiccup in my career. Problem is, i'm 52, and it's not getting easier to find work at my/this age. When I was young, never thought or saw things going here...in this, place. Kate Bush is the kind of Artist that helps one thru these, patches. I loved her since I played her on the radio at my college station in 1884-85. thanks KATE= u r the BEST!
If you’re coming from Stranger Things , welcome to the best back catalogue ever
Loved the song for years BUT this was the first time I've seen the video. Very cool
I love the way Kate talks on this
love her soooo much
What a song!!! Great video, too. I love Kate Bush.
Another jewel wrapped in a magnificent vid.
I absolutely adore this woman.
"The government will never find the money" is the most beautiful line ever written :)
I woke up singing this song, I love it
"The government will never find the money"
I always feel this is a bit of a forerunner to Cloudbusting.
Some people never go crazy....What truly horrible lives they must lead - Charles Bukowski
too many creative brain cells.
Where did he wrote or utter that?! Because I absolutely love it! =D
Fits me to a t! xP
When I go truly creative I always go a little crazy to ;-)
The movie Barfly is my only exposure to Bukowski; it included this quote.
The early 1980s had some of the most creative music: The Dreaming, Tin Drum by Japan, Sulk by The Associates.
Had a feel of 'Alice in Wonderland' this one. I liked this a lot. Bush was one of my many icons back in the late '70s and '80s. Very very creative female performing artist.
Who doesn't like a great caper?
One of her best😊
She's so cool man
such an amazing song and album which highlights how amazing kate is
She's a genius
