Placebo’s cover was far clear
A truly amazing song, was great to hear it feature on stranger things so frequently because it’s just a great vibe.
Someone else mentioned the placebo cover which as good, different vibe but definitely solid. Original is great though, much harder to make an original hit, also cool to know it influenced someone like big boi it couldn’t be further away from what you’d expect one half of OutKast would enjoy
I was thinking about this video the other day after watching Stranger Things. Also made me sad for what could have been the future of Outkast had Andre 3000 not gone off the deep end.
As a long time fan of this song why is this seemingly popular now?
Apparently he’s sitting on a big boi/Kate bush track

Tell me we both matter, you and we.
This is Lucas grown up. hahahaha
Kate Bush was Tupac Shakurs favourite artist also.
It’s sort of cool how he describes his vision of her in a castle on a hill. Reminds me of the novel Wuthering Heights…
I prefer the Placebo version but that’s just me. I like the downtempo approach.
Big Boi is the fucking man
“Max I dont want a letter. I’m right here! We’re right here!”
Such a powerful ending. Beautiful cinematography.
I see a few people mention the Placebo cover, but Meg Myers really did an epic job. I would really encourage anyone who is a fan to check it out.
Shout to Uncle Russell.
It’s great to have someone to look up to as a youngster with a more eclectic tastes.
If you’ve seen Kate Bush stuff recently, this is how marketing works with social media.
Marketing is successfully keeping us talking about Stranger Things to get more people interested in the finale.
This guy. Shows his musical breadth by naming Kate Bush and NWA… and Marley… to me if you enjoy a whole swath of music and can see genius in all music forms…
I think even among the artists I like… could be PE Dr Dre. George Michael Freddie Mercury Led Zep… Kate Bush stands alone as an auteur… an artist’s artist.
His work in big grams was amazing. Fell in the sun is such a lovely song..
I’ve loved this song for over ten years now. It feels like a lot of people just discovered it recently in that episode of Stranger Things. Even though it is true that because of it, the song is trending again.
We all know what song to play for u/Big_Boi_ when he gets caught in Vecna’s curse
Never really paid attention to this song in the past and now it’s been on repeat in my head for 3 days… someone make it stop!
Big Boi has been a self-acknowledged Kate Bush stan for decades.
So this is like the 5th reference to Kate and this track within a week, did I miss something?
Jorn Lande cover of this song is epic.
This is so wholesome, but I cannot get over the fact that he has a necklace with pop tabs.
I love Kate Bush and loved that song, but it is getting over played and I am starting to hate it.
Fucking love that synth and the drums.
Why is Kate Bush everywhere all of a sudden?
I won’t lie this song is mid
That whole record is very very good.
I love videos like this
I love when stuff like this happens. Stranger Things played a very popular song and now an entire generation of people are discovering this part of culture they didn’t really experience before.
Thanks to this thread for finally letting me know why Kate Bush has randomly been popping up everywhere. Deservedly, of course. Hounds of Love is in my top 20, that shit bangs.
