#18 in the US 

 

Did it after the rule change. A pop song. No sexual visuals. A poppy pop song. I thought it would be top 100. Label said top 20. #RunningUpThatHill 

what rule change

I think it depends who the audience is and the scene was so good, it just fit perfectly.

Placebo's version is better tbh

I love a lot of newer generations might discover Kate Bush through this show and it's trully amazing. The best songs really don't age but at the same time music rotation is real.

 

I wonder what song will have the spotlight on part 2!

Stranger Things is one of the biggest shows currently and the song has such a pivotal role in the story.

 

Glad to see it gain popularity, it's always been one of my fave songs

I love Within Temptation's version so much.

Because of the dumb ACR rule it will never have a chance to top the UK charts. Mariah needed massive streams to get it with All I Want for Christmas.

Since we are on the topic of cover versions, Will Young does a really nice piano ballad version of this song on his greatest hits album.

This Woman's Work >>>>

The GP is late to everything 

[Wonderland]

Not this 40 year old classic coming back bigger than EVER  

 

LET ME STEAL THIS MOMENT FROM YOU NOW

Surely they've chosen Cloudbusting for the finale of the second half

It’s number one on US iTunes. Talent won.

 

Do you even think Kate knows the song is doing this right now? She’s so far removed off the internet and lives quite a quiet life.

Of course she does, she owns her record label "Fish People". So she must've allowed them to use the song. Queen is still making her coins.

See when you're the first female singer-songwriter to top the single chart of your own nation, the talentry comes back to BITE

I remember she did this for the entire Melodrama era, as her walk on music starting from Coachella and even the small show she did at Pappy & Harriet's bar just before the Coachella festival started.
