Did Placebo do Kate Bush justice with their RUTH cover?

Many artists from Kim Petras to Halsey have covered this song, but none in my opinion were able to put such a genius spin on Kate's classic like the UK band Placebo. This version is just absolutely both haunting and beautiful at the same time and I truly think they did her justice classic with this, unlike all the other attempts by various artists.

Hm it's one of the few non offensive ones, but I prefer the Chromatics' one.

Yes, I remember being horrified by the song and video back when I was a kid. It has that gruesome druggie aura that makes me feel extremely uncomfortable.

Same, I think I found it in a trailer for a horror movie called Daybreakers starring Ethan Hawke back when I was a child and I always found it very unsettling and was lowkey scared to listen to it. :rip: It eventually lead me to discovering the rest of Placebo's discography and I fell in LOVE with them. Without You I'm Nothing and Meds are some of my favorite albums of all-time.
