BA-BUSH-KA


A wonder woman with a wonderful voice - Kate Bush made her debut in 1978 while only 19 years old with the album The Kick Inside. It features the lovely track The Man With The Child In His Eyes, released as her second single.


Two years later, she released the number one hit album Never for Ever. It features maybe her most famous song Babooshka which made it to number five on the UK singles chart (and number four in Norway).


Her best album, in my mind, is the 1985 Hounds of Love which features the favorite tune Cloudbusting. For the video, actor Donald Sutherland appears as Wilhelm Reich, the inventor of the cloudbuster.


Here's a recent reworked version of Cloudbusting by Young Edits.
