I don't even like that song.

Now, if it was "The Man With the Child in His Eyes"...

Surely the only band to have ever used the word "ciggies" in a song.

Other than the Fall.

Probably.

Also, that is horrific.

I've got the best of Hue and Cry and that has always been a track to skip.

I've also got Kate Bush's The Whole Story, and I do not skip that track. curtsey

A message from Kate Bush, posted on her website:

Kate Bush wrote:It’s all so exciting! Since the last post, Running Up That Hill has gone to No 1 in Norway and Austria. This is such great news and we just heard today that it’s up from No 8 to No 4 in the US.

The track is being responded to in so many positive ways. I’ve never experienced anything quite like this before!
I just want to say a really big thank you to everyone in the US who has supported the song. It’s the first time I’ve had a top ten single over there and now it’s in the top 5!

Thank you so much again to the Duffer Brothers - because of their latest, extraordinary series of Stranger Things, the track is being discovered by a whole new audience.

Best wishes,
Kate

Also, Stranger Things is crud for kids pining for a time they can't possibly remember.

Ooh, I am in a grumpy mood. happy

I've seen the sequence in question. I was surprised by how bad the CGI was. It was like you'd get in Doctor Who over a decade ago.

by Butterfield Thu Jun 16, 2022 1:16 am

I still don't know what Stranger Things is, other than I keep reading the name to do with Kate Bush news. But then I don't really know what Netflick's is.

It's two days after that magical time of week again.

But what could be Number One? What?

And that means Running up That Hill by Kate Bush moves up one place to be this week's UK Number One.
