Head Empty 25,244 Posted January 24, 2023 Share Posted January 24, 2023 My parents used to play a few Kate Bush songs all the time. Wuthering Heights, Babooshka and of course Running Up That Hill. I came across her Efteling special (actually more so because of the park ) and really enjoy most of the songs there: Can anyone recommend me more songs? Fan favorites, live specials or good albums to use as a starting point? Happiness will never last, darkness comes to kick your ass... ᵃˢˢ 🕺 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

alsemanche 93,932 Posted January 24, 2023 Share Posted January 24, 2023 Hounds of Love and The Dreaming are my favorite albums by her. I think they perfectly capture her genius. Songs (besides the ones you mentioned ofc): Jig of Life Cloudbusting And Dream Of Sheep Deeper Understanding This Woman's Work Get Out Of My House The Dreaming Mrs. Bartolozzi Misty Soft, soothing, and succulent Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eggs 2,776 Posted January 24, 2023 Share Posted January 24, 2023 The obvious starting point for anyone interested in Kate Bush is to listen to her Hounds of Love album. It's her most polished and accessible album but still manages to pack in all her strangeness and inventiveness and drama and sensitivity and poetry. Its one of the best albums of all time and I would really recommend you listen to it. Don't start with The Dreaming. I love that album but it might scare you off!

Nemo 4,295 Posted January 24, 2023 Share Posted January 24, 2023 I'd suggest "The Whole Story", which was her greatest hits album from 1986. Of course she's done a lot since then, but it covers a wide range of songs from her first eight years. And then, after that... a personal favorite: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xyEHKGDSg5I Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

kurtz 52 Posted January 25, 2023 Share Posted January 25, 2023 I first saw Kate Bush when she appeared on Saturday Night Live back in the late 70’s. “The Man with the Child in His Eyes” really hooked me and her album “The Kick Inside” is outstanding.
