Famously described by John Lydon as “fucking brilliant” and “a true original,” I’ve loved Kate Bush’s work ever since I heard the beautifully unique ‘Wuthering Heights.’<\/p>\n

Despite her stunning albums being well received, she\u00a0only\u00a0toured once in 1979<\/a>, and has been reluctant to appear in\u00a0public\u00a0ever since – prompting her to tell the Guardian that ‘she’s not some weirdo recluse<\/a>‘!<\/p>\n

Here’s some of her videos. I hope you enjoy them as much as I do.<\/p>\n

Here’s her lesser known duet with Rowan Atkinson. It’s very funny.<\/p>\n
