Kate Bush #1

[K23]

"Running Up That Hill (A Deal With God)" number 1 37 years after release. Great song IMO. They reckon she's made about £1m in royalties in the last MONTH!

Was talking to my Mrs about it a little while ago and trying to think of the last time I had the chart topper in my music collection and reckon it was probably "Pure Shores" by All Saints in Feb 2002

It's taken the longest time ever for a single to reach No 1, and makes her the oldest female artist to reach No 1.

Her politics were dreadful, but I've always loved her music, and she was so uber sexy in the late 80's...always gone for girls that look like her...

Wuthering Heights was a whole new listening direction for me when released , bought " The Kick Inside " cassette , who remembers them , on the strength of that track .

Regarding your chart topping collection , I will raise you , and confess my ownership of the first two albums by the Scissors Sisters .

The singles were not even her best songs just the most commercial , every album was superb

My favourite of her albums is "The Dreaming", some very dark moments on that and I like that my music.

Just saying Bryn. Can't see that she'd need to dissemble about it.

Ta for that Monnie.....I seem to recall she was a celebrity attendee at Thatcher Tory promos back in the 80's, but it would appear she was there to promote Thatcher as she was female...

Glad to know she's not a Tory...she's now even more perfect in my book...

Big Zappa fan too so it’s even better. :lol:

She used to be a bit loopy back in the day didn't she?

 

[dickythorpe]

She's a bit barking but incredible.
