The lead single from her acclaimed album *Hounds of Love*, this 12" version elevates Bushโs timeless anthem into a widescreen experience. Propelled by propulsive drums, swirling synths, and that unforgettable Fairlight-driven hook, โRunning Up That Hillโ explores themes of empathy, love, and perspective with an intensity and sophistication that has kept it relevant for decades. Kateโs vocal performance is raw yet ethereal, carrying the emotional weight of the songโs central plea: the desire to trade places with a lover to truly understand them.
Widely celebrated as one of her defining works, the track continues to resonate with new generations โ recently reintroduced to global audiences and reaffirming its status as a pop classic. A perfect example of Kate Bushโs ability to merge avant-garde experimentation with mainstream appeal, this 12" pressing is an essential piece for any serious collection.
