Kate Bush was nominated earlier this year for Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame as ‘Stranger Things’ fans rejoiced. Iron Maiden, Joy Division/New Order and the late George Michael are also nominees.
Bush wrote The Man With The Child In His Eyes when she was just 13 years old. A cassette tape caught the ear of David Gilmour, who produced the 1975 demo that landed the youthful singer-songwriter her record deal with EMI.
Kate Bush has been a prominent figure in the music industry since the 1970s, known for her unique style and artistry. However, her popularity experienced a resurgence in recent years, following the use of her song “Running Up That Hill” in the hit Netflix series “Stranger Things.”
The song was used in a key scene during the third season of the show, and its inclusion sparked renewed interest in Bush’s music. This was further amplified by social media, where fans of the show and new listeners alike shared their appreciation for the track and discovered more of Bush’s music.
Additionally, the show’s creators, the Duffer brothers, have cited Kate Bush as a major influence on their work. This endorsement helped introduce Bush to a new generation of fans who were not familiar with her music.
Bush’s progressive spirit has infused everything she’s done. She’s built a huge and devoted following across the world despite only ever undertaking a single tour, in 1979. She embraced the possibilities of sampling, not to lift melodic passages or riffs from other people’s songs, but to create sounds in her music that no one had ever heard before. She freely blended human drummers with drum machines, ignoring any thought of the two being mutually exclusive, always focused on capturing the right feel and sound to serve the music.
