Running up that Hill

 

Heard this on my Pandora station and liked it. Didn't realize this was a Kate Bush cover. But once I listened to the original, it was familiar.

The first time I saw her, I saw her on youtube and I was like holy sh*t . It was the Wuthering Heights video. I've since watched a documentary about her, and I understand more about how that video came to be, the influences, etc. When you catch her randomly on YouTube the way that I did, it can be a bit limiting. It's A LOT. But now that I have more background, I plan to explore her music some more.

White Lion

Wait

 

I had the album Pride when I was a kid. It was very enjoyable. Of course, the word "pride" has taken on additional meaning since then.... But back in the day they were referring to lions and maybe ego. Vito Bratta was quite a monster on the guitar. Between this song and When the Children Cry, I think he must have single-handedly introduced the 12 string guitar into American vocabulary.
