Cannot articulate accurately the effect this song has in my life. From a gangly 13 year old falling asleep on the train with this in my ears, to a nearly 50 year old man looking for comfort. Soundtrack well lived.

This song might have saved my life. It was early September last year and I reached the lowest point in my life, shocked and dismayed by events reaching back to May that year. I almost did something life threatening to myself but this song kind of pulled me back from the brink, from the edge of the cliff. I love Kate Bush with every last drop of my heart, as a woman and as a great artist ever since I discovered her music as a 12 year old boy. All the love Kate ❤

Her emotional intelligence is unmatched, her artistry and integrity beyond reproach.

Her soprano voice was very beautiful, but her mezzo soprano of today is absolutely amazing!

I am a 25-year-old man. Lost at times, but still fighting. But songs like Miss Kate’s have been my fortress. She’s amazing, and I wish I knew her sooner. Man, I was born in a wrong time!

I sometimes find it difficult to listen to her music simply because of the emotional investment it entails.Her music is so powerful that it can be emotionally exhausting and that's not a criticism,I dont know any other artist who can do this.She's amazing.

Oh, Kate- if you only knew how your music's been a life vest over the years.

At 63 now this song has and will always reduce me to tears. The lyrics,subject,Kate's voice are all a bit much. It is simply beautiful. Her early albums represent such a special time in my life. I hadn't listened to Kate's music for quite some time but now I'm back. Who also could forget "Breathing" such a song of the time.

This song always breaks my heart. It was my go to song when i was going through some of the worst and vilest abuse in my little young life at the time. I needed to drift away from the experience i was encountering at the moment just so i could survive. I wore the hell out of my Hounds Of Love cassette tape just in the first two years after it's release. I didn't revisit the album until decades later when emi released it as a special booklet with a bonus cd. But I was able to put away those horrible experiences and found joy and love and laughter and because I had survived and I was stronger now, than I was at that time. Thank you, Kate Bush.

The original album version is probably the most exquisite vocal I've ever heard, and this version by older Kate in a lower register still sounds fabulous. I've given strict instructions to my daughter to play this at my funeral, otherwise I'll come back and haunt her lol. Yes, I do know what the Ninth Wave suite is all about, but the line "Let me be weak, let me sleep, and dream of sheep" just makes my brain go all wibbly wobbly. Amazing song from what for me, at least, is her best album

I adore Kate's deep, aged voice. She's given us so many wonderful octaves.

This woman is just extraordinary.

After so many years of listening to Kate's music I still get the chills whenever I hear it. She stimulates the listener both intellectually and emotionally, that makes her work a true art.

Absolute genius.

I discovered Kate Bush through the Hounds of Love album when I was 11 in 1984. It was the year my father died suddenly and Cloudbusting helped me through. Seeing Kate play live at the Hammersmith Apollo in 2014 from the middle of the 4th row was so emotional. I thought she wouldn't play Cloudbusting when the concert ended ..but she came back and sung it for the encore...an experience I will never forget. Hounds of Love was released in the days well before Spotify when we would listen to whole albums. I always imagined the story she was telling on the Hounds of Love from start to finish and her live performance was exactly how I imagined - "And Dream of Sheep" was so powerful live- in fact, many powerful moments in that show that I will always feel privileged to have experienced. Kate's music got me through the toughest time of my life and will always be in my heart

OMG. I don't think this absolute LEGEND even realises what an impact she has had on the world. This video is an absolute masterpiece. You can just hear the faint intakes of shivering breath as she sings. It's perfect. Almost EXACTLY like the recorded version. This video gives me a whole new perspective of the song. My minds eye for decades had her lying in a field amongst docile ovines. I adore this woman. Absolute legend.

i hope when i close my eyes for the last time on earth and take my last breath this video is playing in my subconscious mind hauntingly beautiful

Exquisite! When I saw this in the show - I was left breathless. Nobody made a sound and there were tears rolling down so many cheeks. At that precise moment I knew that I was privileged to be part of something quite extraordinary.This has brought it all back. Wow! 💚💜💛

I've been struggling with very bad anxiety lately, and this touched me in a way I can't describe

Sad, dark, brilliant and evocative. Kate Bush is truly a unique gift, mystical and magical, and vocally mesmerizing.

Never was a huge Kate Bush "fan", over the years. Respect her vocal chops and songwriting, but couldn't get with the stage musical 'singsongeyness' of a lot of her hits. Then I randomly click on this video, out of morbid curiosity of not having seen Kate or her work in 15+ years. Not even a minute in and tears are welling up. I'm not even consciously thinking about the damn song! No prior exposure to it. Take it from a 'non'-Kate fan: This woman has something otherworldly emoting powerfully from her soul.

I can't believe this music video is a LIVE PERFORMANCE! This is such a boss and elite calibre of an artist!! Princess Kate Bush!!!

Those shivering intakes of breath. Man...

I was a young soldier in Germany no family her voice was comforting like a mothers ❤

My sister was a life long fan of Kate Bush, thought she was a genius and I can't argue with that. The week before my sister passed I sat with her in the Hospice playing Kate Bush songs, this is what she asked for along with Don't Give Up with Peter Gabriel. Wherever you are Mel I hope you're playing Kate Bush back to back and dancing in the sky with Angels. ❤

Kate Bush is the ultimate... in every possible way. A fan from 1978 (I was 12) when Wuthering Heights was released... she is my favourite artist of all time

This is sublime. Kate is a true living legend and an completely underrated genius.

One of a kind. She is a gift to humanity.

A National treasure indeed. The World needs Kate Bush! She is a wonder in her own right x

Surely this will be buried but I was once lost at sea, several kilometres off the coast of Western Australia, kitesurfing when the wind turned and I was stuck drifting further and further out to sea. When I was about 15 kilometres from the shore (a guess because the shore was no longer visible to me), I made the very hard decision to jettison my kite, my only means of floatation but also wrapping me in lines and being pulled by the wind further out to sea. I floated in the ocean, no idea which way to start swimming, no life vest, only a light wetsuit and a kitesurfing harness around my waist. I decided to swim in the direction where the wind was coming from, since it was strong enough to be spitting off the tops of the chop at me. I alternated strokes between freestyle, breast stroke, backstroke, sculling and resting but after a few hours of this I was absolutely exhausted. I had made good progress from being scared and land was now visible but I was still a good 5 hours swim from the shore. I laid my head back in the water, my ears under the water, it was starting to get dark now, I drifted off to sleep, I needed to rest my muscles. I couldn't keep my eyes open. I wasn't worried about sharks or drowning, I love the ocean, I was here now and this was just a part of my life I had to experience. I was resting for only a moment but I heard bells ringing. Actual bells. Dingly Dingly ding. Dingly Dingly ding. Dingly Dingly - - what?! I fell asleep! I drifted back out to sea. I had lost sight of land, I had lost my bearings and the sun was setting now. I was starting to panic now. I wasn't going to be overdue for a while as I was on a surfing holiday, no one knew I was out today. It would be morning before I was overdue. I started swimming aimlessly on my back. Sculling water past me as I stared at Sirius and Canopus appearing in the night sky. Wait. Sirius and Canopus are in the West at this time of year! I had a bearing now. I kept swimming as I lay on my back, the wind had died down now. I was buoyant enough to not sink, probably aided by the kitesurfing harness. Soon enough, Sigma Octanis was visible, as well as Rigel Kentauris, so I had a true south bearing now too. I maintained my pace for several hours, just watching the stars and slowly swimming back to shore, until my head hit something. Bonk. A crayfish pot float. I looked towards shore and I could see lights now. Flashing lights. It looked like a car on the beach maybe, not unheard of for some of the local beaches with offroad vehicle access. I resumed my pace and continued to swim until it was shallow enough for me to stand, where I slowly trudged up the sand and collapsed on the wet sand in a heap. I woke up to the sound of a 4 wheel drive on the beach, it was still night. Just some people partying on the beach, they had a bonfire going. I crawled towards the fire and fell asleep next to them and their fire. They must have been absolutely amazed at what they were seeing. They saw that I had been through an ordeal and was suffering from hypothermia. They put a blanket on me and moved me a bit further away from the fire and gave me some water and this woman, she must have been a mother because she held me close and I felt so comfortable. She held me close as I fell back to sleep. I had been "lost" at sea for 18 hours. Those people who saved me and kept me warm with their fire? Now you can choose whether you want to believe this part or not. But for me it's what happened. When I woke again, the sun was rising, I was on the dry sand. I was still freezing cold but the sun was warming me up quickly. There was no sign of any people, no 4 wheel drive tracks. No bonfire. No blankets, no people at all. I am sure that I would have died multiple times over if not for several, unexplainable situations. The bells, the lights on the beach, spotting Sirius and Canopus, the bonfire and the people comforting me on the shore. Spirits? Angels? Very tidy and clean good Samaritans who were also on the run from the Law? I go back to that beach once a year and just sit there and watch the sunset over the ocean and think about my life. I am a strong swimmer. I now teach my daughter to be a strong swimmer.

My God, nobody moves me like Kate does, her music permeates my soul❤

It’s so sad that I’ve not listened to Kate for the longest time. Thank you Stranger Things, I’m back now, and loving her all over again 🥰🥰🥰

Imagine a full video for the entirety of the Ninth Wave sequence tho

Kate Bush is an absolute angel. She’s one of my favorite artists and i’m so grateful for her music, she’s helped me through so much of my losses. Thank you for being here for me 💛

This women is untouchable.

This song personifies my brave, beautiful and strong mother. She had just been diagnosed with pancreatic cancer before I attended this extraordinary concert in London. I'll never forget it as I wept through the whole thing and I played this stunning song at her funeral. I think of her asking 'let me be weak, let me sleep and dream of sheep' ❤️ She was absolutely exhausted by the cancer but fought it every single day until the end.

I can't handle it. Still. All of these years. I still can't.

She is beautiful and the way she presents her music and her voice differences is gorgeous !

"Moving liquid, yes, you are just as water You flow around all that comes in your way" I love this lady.

So happy that Kate Bush has released this special video. I wept when I saw it on stage, and it brings a tear to my eye now. Such an authentic performance.

Ma mère, gravement malade, était proche de la mort . Je vous écoutais encore et encore . Merci à vous , Kate de m’avoir accompagné dans mes sanglots ❤

I Love Her...Her Music, Her Voice, Her Beauty, Her. Been in love since 1982

Kate Bush, in my mind, and lots of other minds, I guess 😊, is a true musical genius, a true legend. A couple years ago I watched a documentary about her and I was glad to learn that she has always been a big star in the UK, pretty much from the very beginning of her career. I wish it would have been the same for her here in the US, not just for her own success, but for all of those who never got the chance to fall in love with her like I did back in 1985 when I first heard Running Up That Hill on mtv I went out and got the Hounds of Love right away and I was totally captivated by the imagery that music created in my mind. Even at the youngish age of 15 I was totally gripped by the emotivenes of her voice and the melodies she sang, im still moved when the sweet tenderness of The Morning Fog kinda comes skipping and hoping in after the dark and scary ride we've just been on during the ninth wave. Not long after getting hounds I picked up the Dreaming, (one of the greatest album covers of all time,btw ❤❤❤😊 such an incredibly beautiful woman), and these two albums are two of my favorites of all time by any artist. I can never decide which one i would take if i could only have one. I don't think enough people appreciate The Dreaming, at least thats the impression i got from the aforementioned documentary I watched, perhaps they do now but not when it was released. But i guess I get how it was so very unique and ahead of its time when it was released. Anyway, I wish I could have been there it must have been amazing. Although I probably would have gotten thrown out by screaming " KATE, I LOOOOOOOOVVVVVVVE YOU!" at the top of my lungs during the first time the music became quiet.😊

Every new song of Kate that I come across keeps getting better than the previous one...I am just stunned wrt the range of subjects she covers and the emotions that she manages to inject into her voice and performance. Utterly captivating.

wow! I've always loved this song, have the album, didn't ever get all the words, but do now. And the older face of Kate here is so immensely powerful, i feel chilled through and through. Thank you so very much for your art! It's been with me most of my life, shaped me, became part of me ... let me be weak now, please!

Always wells me up. So beautifully moving Xxx 🙂

A stunning piece of music that stood out from the album and stayed with me ever since.

Absolute legend. Glad she is getting more recognition so many years later.

My favourite Kate Bush song. Of all the nonsense you see journalists write about her, according to those in the know the only real character flaw Kate has is being a perfectionist - which is what makes her such an outstanding artist. Bravo, Kate. Bravo.

I hadn't listened to this version in years now... Made me cry like the first time. Speechless.

Utterly beautiful, her more mature voice absolutely sells this, and the shivering breaths... wow. I can't imagine what this was like to the very lucky audience who got to experience this as part of the show live. Pure magic.

Amazing. I’ve just read an interview with Kate talking about filming this. She was in there for hours getting more and more irritated and ended up with mild hyperthermia. A true professional to keep going.

Oh my days just heard this song for the first time ever. Powerful beautiful poignant, the emotions it evokes. I have no words. Just beautiful. Kate Bush is truly an artistic genius ❤❤❤❤

LyricsLittle light shining Little light will guide them to me My face is all lit up My face is all lit up If they find me racing white horses They'll not take me for a buoyLet me be weak, let me sleep and dream of sheep Oh I'll wake up to any sound of engines Every gull a seeking craft I can't keep my eyes open Wish I had my radio I'd tune into some friendly voicesTalking 'bout stupid things I can't be left to my imagination Let me be weak, let me sleep and dream of sheep Ooh, their breath is warm And they smell like sleep And they say they take me home Like poppies, heavy with seed They take me deeper and deeper

I remember crying my eyes out during this film in the concert :D I wish we could've had the live dvd, because it was one of the best days of my life to be able to see the concert. The dvd would help me to remember all the beautiful details of it all, that i can't remember so well anymore. Anyway i'm glad we got this video

I come here to watch the video and listen to this stunning performance from time to time. It remembers me when I showed this clip to my wife for the first time. She was silence, stunnend and amazed...she even shared some tears. That was over 2 years ago. And god I miss her ervery single god damn day I have to be here without her. In 2018 she lost the fight with cancer. She was allowed to become 43. We have been togehter for 28 years and every day my heart breaks over and over again. Can't wait to be allowed to join here wherever she is now...

Beyond any other artist .Unique and amazing Kate.

_Lost on the waves...._ a beautiful atmospheric masterpiece by Kate!!

I can't even begin to tell you how many times I've listened to this track. This specific recording incuded... I pulled this one because I was testing new headphones and omg I heard some stuff I've never heard before. The shiver in her voice when she breathes in...

I cannot describe how emotional this makes me feel. The way her voice has changed with age, and the fragility in her delivery adds such a heartbreaking and melancholy poignancy. This track was always one of my favourites from Hounds, but this version? This version speaks to my soul.

I saw her in concert, and this was played, just like this, as a film. In front of us, about 5 feet away was Annie Lennox. It was just a magical trip.

Truly legendary, and absolutely unique. She wrote 'the man with the child in his eyes' at 15 and it is as fresh today as this song. Heartrending and genuinely genius.

In my Top 2 Kate Bush songs.

By far my favourite artist

And Dream Of Sheep.....so deep...just like all of your music. Born in 68 in Australia you have always resonated with me.... I hope I meet you in our next lifetime. 🙌❤

Great to rewatch this... the Hammersmith concert was simply stunning!

She is absolutely fabulous.

Not many artists would spend 3 days in a water tank singing live just for her fans. A real legend combined with beauty and talent. What more could anyone ask for.

I've listened to this song for years and loved it's fragility and infinite tenderness, but always thought of it as an abstract song. And it's been up until now that I watch this video that I realize it's true meanning and I am COMPLETELY blown away, it just never occured to me. Thank you forever, sweet beautiful lady

How beautiful is this? Words cant describe how wonderful it is. Emotional heaven.

I think the whole audience cried during this….so authentic so touching

Kate Bush is an emotional-artistic genius... But her work takes me to a place that I don't always want to go. I love her for her work, and it is only later in life I realise how much her message transmitted to my soul as a young boy with headphones and a walkman.

Emotionally, this song absolutely crushes me.

An utterly beautiful creation. From an utterly beautiful creation. Long live KB.

Beautiful Kate, you inspire me everyday to write.

Though aged, her voice is still beautiful and haunting. Amazing Kate.

My uncle, Gordon, was a sailor in the navy who fell overboard and almost certainly suffered this kind of fate in the midst of the Yellow Sea. I never met him but this has made me think about him. I hope he has found peace, wherever he is.

Christ, her voice sounds amazing. Much deeper and more operatic now, but absolutely full of soul. She is an inspiration

OMG I have seen greatness.

Her mother on the original version saying, "Come here with me now" - kills me every time.

my god what is it with Kate bush that gets me so emotional?

thank You so much for sharing .

What a lovely song 😍😍😍

Remember listening to this on my Walkman at nights talking me to a different world.....shame we don't get concept albums anymore...

❤ my conclusion is, through, all the music i know, Kate Bush is the and has been the most influential and perfect for my life and it's ups and downs. Thank you Kate, you have been my shoulder and still ❤

This is what saddens me about the music business. Someone with this voice and talent and yet, to many, she is unknown. This song is truly haunting and heartbreaking.

This song somehow reaches into the very core of my emotional experience and touches the essence of who I am. Astonishing and sometimes overwhelming.

Such a brilliant show... everything! First, KATE BUSH. Live. The voice. Just... wonderful! Then, that band. What a band. The lighting, took your breath away; not just the more theatrical bits but in the Kate + band performance at the beginning, blew your socks off. The screens... the bells... the blackbird... helicopter! A tree through the piano! So glad I was able to see it. Floated the 30-odd tube stops home with a carriage full of singing, tear stained, happy people. Never known anything like it and SO wish I could see it again.

I actually prefer this version to the original. How remarkable you are, Kate ❤️

Man I really, truly, achingly, miss Kate Bush.

Absolute genius !

this song touches me in a way I can't explain.

I sat on the beach some years ago when things weren't going so well. Listening to the radio and this came on. Oddly therapeutic and lifted me out of the gloom. I keep it for those moments now. It's calming and reaches into your soul I guess. I'll shut up now.

As a 14 year old , I watched Kate in awe of her strangeness, then continued almost in isolation to pick up her albums like storybooks, you start at the beginning & then you never quite put the book down. Read & re-read, especially "The Dreaming". I'm 56 now & an accomplished songwriter in my own right, but I never forget or stay far away from the books that inspired a 14 year old Thank You Kate, for the stories & the journeys xx

First time I saw this I thought it was awesome. Then I heard (and had it confirmed) that this was all done live in a tank, and now I have changed my mind. This is astonishing! The last moment sends chills on every inch of skin...

kate was my first great love in music. I listened to her music for hours and always found new things that fascinated me. she has enchanted me for years and she simply remains my favorite. the way she plays with the notes and dances to them is unique. the somewhat different music made me dream and feel good. thank you kate for the beautiful wonderful moments i had listening to you^^ your magic is still there

Wherever you are Kate thank you for your songs that have always been my go to in troubled times, I miss you and your wonderful voice x

Total dedication to her craft. Total Pro. Found her faint breathing frightening. Kudoes, Kate.

the whole 9th Wave is my personal masterpiece of music. Happy to meet you over and over again Kate

Kate Bush is the best artist I’ve ever stanned, she is very and extremely dedicated to what she is doing. She deserves all the love in this universe. We love u kate, ur the best.
