First listen to Kate Bush - Wuthering Heights (REACTION) |Based on a classic novel, WOW|

Kate Bush did everything herself. She wrote this in her mid teens. She was discovered and mentored by Dave Gilmour. She was the first woman to have a number 1 album that she wrote, performed and produced herself!

It’s the ghost of Catherine trying to find Heathcliff again. It was said he had the body and she had the soul. They were one.

Kate Bush absolutely IS a musical genius. Shes not your typical ANYTHING music wise. Shes Kate Bush. Shes in her own lane. This song always gives me goosebumps. Other fav tracks are Cloudbusting, Hounds Of Love.

The Divine Kate, as we Brits call her, is nothing short of a genius and there is plenty more of her music to explore. She's totally original and greatly beloved.

Kate was so ahead of her time. She was the first artist to ever use a head mic. She danced so much during her performances that she found it difficult to hold a mic so sh got her sound guy to makeshift one that attached to her head

We in England are so lucky to have her! Talented doesn't even come close, she is on a different level to other artists, she is truly phenomenal

Kate is an enigma, she really is something else, a talent beyond compare... Musically I've heard a lot by Kate and what I Hear I don't always like but she doesn't plagiarize other performers or singers, she is herself and is always interesting... This song is probably her most famous but never would I give to someone as a first listen, it's a little too out there and divisive... I remember hearing this when released and has a teen I hated it ... My suggestions... "Hounds of Love", "Man With The Child In His Eyes", "Army Dreamers" & "Running Up That Hill"... please do not give up on Kate Bush, she really is a female David Bowie...

Hounds of love, running up that hill, the man with the child in his eyes, this woman's work.. maybe a little less eccentric but still Kate.

Fun fact, the last 7 years there have been a summer event organized called "The most Wuthering Heights day ever". People (mostly women) get together and dance to this song all over the world. There are videos where several hundred people dances (Melbourne Australia 2016 for example). There are also videos where just a few people, or even one, try to do the dance.

This is quite simply one of the most gorgeous songs ever written. She was a trained dancer and was trained by a ballerina or a classical dancer. I remember this song way back when I was about 8 yrs old in the early 80s. Her compositions are light yrs more advanced than anything you hear today. She is a genius really.

Yes she choreographed it all herself. She was a classically trained dancer and pianist

When this was released in 1978, the world changed just a little bit. Coming out at the height of the British New Wave it sounded like nothing else and Kate Bush quickly established herself as the most innovative and successful female singer of her generation. Well, I was a fantasy obsessed adolescent, and a fey musical enchantress was exactly what I was looking for. But there was a lot more to her than that, and she was always fearless when it came to her songwriting and choice of subject matter. If you like her enough to get away from the obvious hits most will recommend, you will be well rewarded on your journey.

One of her movement teachers was Lindsay Kemp. He was a great mime artist and dancer. Another of his students was none other than David Bowie!

this is the section in the book where "cathys" ghost is pleading to come home it's a very intense scene she is a genius and had a 4&1/2 octave voice range this song is a historic moment the 1st song self written by a female artist to go to number 1 in the U.K. she produces her albums directs videos writes her own music she was one of the first to use the Fairlight CMI synth arranges and choreographed a lot of her music she is huge everywhere else in the world she was even made the title CBE "Commander Of The British Empire" by the Queen

My favourite novel when I was a teen. I love to sing this. Heathcliff was the dark handsome heartthrob we all fell in love with…. People all around the world meet yearly, dressed in red and dance in fields to this song Wuthering Heights.

She was only 19 when this was recorded.

She did do the choreography. I tend to agree with those who would say she's a genius but she can be an acquired taste. I don't like all her stuff but the songs I like - I love. Great voice for sure. Two other singles you may like - "Hounds of Love" and "Runnin Up That Hill" - both I think are universally liked by fans. Check out some new Fiona Apple from "Fetch the Bolt Cutters" ( a modern masterpiece) - If you want to hear something different with some great lyrics.

The Faerie Goddess in all her glory, there's no one who compares to Kate.

I remember being 10 years old and hearing this for the first time in 1978. Everybody at school thought she was weird and possibly a witch (in that Scottish kids at school sort of way), and the class was divided on whether they liked her or not. I thought she was (and still is) amazing. I've loved this song ever since. It has a magical & quite haunting feel to it. I never tire of hearing it. The album the song Wuthering Heights is taken from 'The Kick Inside' is excellent too. She was barely 19 when she recorded it and it's such an intriguing and mature album. So much talent. Anyway, cheers for giving this a listen.

The man with the child in his eyes is beautifully fantastic
