Match-Up #136
Killer Queen - Queen v Wuthering Heights - Kate Bush

Please vote below 👇

@HannahHowe

Initially, I was like- how is this even close? No disrespect intended to Kate Bush...but I'd never even heard of Wuthering Heights (the song), and Killer Queen is an *absolute* classic.

Aaaand now that I've heard Wuthering Heights (and just as importantly, seen the video)...I completely get it!

Wowwww- Kate Bush. Just wow. 🤩🤯🔥

@Incognitim @HannahHowe and she was _20_ when it came out. I mean, damn.

@Incognitim @HannahHowe wow... To hear Wuthering Heights for the first time

@HannahHowe @Incognitim and I suppose if someone hadn't heard Wuthering Heights previously then they would not have heard her other songs either.

@IanMoore3000 @Incognitim Which means a lot to look forward to.

@HannahHowe @IanMoore3000 @Incognitim Just wait until you get to the Hounds of Love album!

And Moments of Pleasure from The Red Shoes is magic.

As is so much of her work. What a wonderful musical journey you are on now.

Note: her work with Peter Gabriel may make you snap into a foetal position in reverence.

@PastyFace @HannahHowe @IanMoore3000
I first heard her through Stranger Things, and I think that's probably still my favorite. I remember checking out some more of her songs in YouTube like Hounds of Love, Wow, and Babooshka (which are all GREAT), but I'm guessing I skipped over WH because I have yet to read the book 😅
Glad I finally watched it, though!

I also came across this- Big Boi of OutKast (a musical genius in his own right) giving KB some well-deserved flowers!
