What Was The First Kate Bush Song you heard?  

I remember seeing her the first time in german tv in the late 70´s, as i was a young boy that time. My mother used to listen to her, as far as i can think back i think Kite or Wuthering Heights are one of the first ones i heard from her. My girlfriend has that album called The Kick Inside, i think it´s her best one she has a really unique voice, she was a quite extraordionary or to say eccentric person that time in pop music. I wonder what she does now i haven´t listend to her a long time.

i was lucky enough to go to university with her and she was in the college drama group. One day she did a wonderful version of wuthering heights, from that moment onwards we all knew she was going to be a massive star
blessed be

"Wuthering Heights" which came out, when I was working in London in a record company. One of my colleagues had been in the same class at school as Kate. I love "The Kick Inside" album, and I still listen to it today!

It must have been 'Wuthering Heights' when it came out in the late seventies. I remember being overwhelmed by the sheer originality of the style and her amazing voice. I soon became a very devoted fan although I was far too young to see her during her one and only live tour.

The first one I heard was Wuthering Heights. It was released in 1978 when I was 2 years old and it was one of the first songs I loved.
I have a Kate Bush video from the 80's called The Whole Story, unfortunately "There Goes A Tenner" isn't on it. It has a lot of other cool videos though, all her singles up to 1986.
I've never attempted Kate Bush's dance moves though :)

I'm not sure exactly which Kate song i first heard, my dad has always been a fan so no doubt i overheard him playing her music long before i realised who she was. The first songs i can remember hearing of hers were from The Red Shoes album, which my dad had got one x-mas and played in his car stero all the time. I thought i must be grown up (i was maybe 12 at the time?) as one of the song (Song of Solomon) word was bulls*it in it but my dad still let me listen.
He also had the Hounds Of Love tape in his 'tape drawer' (nothing more exciting than a drawer full of tapes in our dining room) which i decided to listen to, not knowing it was the same woman as on the other tape, but being drawn to it becuase she looked so beautiful on the cover. The tape was somewhere in the middle and i think i heard Waking the Witch which was a bit scary for a12/13 year old, so i didn't really get hooked straight away, but kept getting drawn back to it.
Then, i remember on a UK TV music quizz show called Never Mind the Buzzc*ks they had this round where they had to guess the lyrics parts of songs, and the song in question was Wuthering Heights. So i heard part of that song and liked it, asked my mum who is was by and of course she told me - Kate Bush. I then dug out some more old tapes from my dads' drawer, this times one'd he recorded from record onto tapes, and the tapes being quite old had deteriorated so the sound quality wasn't that good, but i still listened to them and got hooked. The albums were The Kick Inside and Never forever.
I decided i really liked her by this time so got The Kick Inside on cd, and a while later, The Sensual World. By this time i was about 16, and had become quite a fan! So much so that i asked, and got, her This Womans' Work boxed set for passing my GCSE's (English qualifications).
From then on there was no turning back really! I now have all her albums, lots of biographies on her, and quite a few videos, including the Single File that you mention, which btw i absolutely love!
So there you go, i think you have have got a bit more info than you bargained for but oh well!

I was watching that classic VH1 channel, and Running Up That Hill came on, and I was in awe. I loved the dancing in the video and the sort of creepy vibe to it. I just love Kate Bush's uniqueness, there's no singer like her!

the first kate bush i ever heard is babushka. i think i was about seven at the time and i really like it. and i like it still because it brings back good memories from when i was a child. i practicaly grew up with that and other kate bush songs since my father is quite a big fan.

The first song I heard her sing I remember was Wuthering Heights when she appeared on Top of the pops. We thought she was abit mad, the way she sung and danced. I hadn't seen or heard another woman like this before. I must admit as I heard the song more I ended up really liking it. She stayed at NO.1 for ages if I remember rightly.

I like most of her work and have a few favourite, one being Womans Work this is so moving. I bought her last album which I enjoyed, she is unique in her style.

probably Army Dreamers, heard it on on either radio 2, or a local radio station, listening in bed when I should have been a sleep, when I was about 10/11, I didn't really pay that much attention to music at the time but something about it just grabbed me & stuck in my memory especially the the lines about Daddys little soldier, didn't make it to his 20's. Think I thought it was a new song, only heard it a couple of times, then it just disappeared with the start of the gulf war, but I never quite forgot it. Felt like a long time before I rediscovered it, and found out it was Kate Bush.

Then later Wuthering Heights and The Man With The Child In His Eyes on Virgin Radio in 1994.
