Lke many of us somewhat older listeners, we were into this album long before the show "Stranger Things" brought "Running Up That Hill" to a current audience. For me, my first exposure to the song was in a movie called "The Chocolate War" that came out around 1988.

However, for me the standout song is "Cloudbusting". A while fans of Kate Bush may disagree I personally feel this is here best song. Lyrics like the following spoke big time (notice the sly Peter Gabriel reference ha ha) at the time and still do.


On top of the world
Looking over the edge
You could see them coming
You looked too small
In their big black car
To be a threat to the men in power

I hid my yo-yo
In the garden
I can't hide you
From the government
Oh, God, Daddy
I won't forget

Great stuff.

My favourite Kate Bush song too, remember the video when it first came out in 85. Although aware of her before, I remember Wuthering Heights when it came out which seemed so weird at the time but loved it, it was this album that made me deep dive into her back catalogue

My favourite Dionne Warwick track is the Theme from Valley Of the Dolls.

That's by another great musician - Andre Previn
