For our final retro remake of the year, we tackled the Song of 2022 that was once the Song of 1985: "Running Up That Hill (A Deal with God)," originally by Kate Bush and recently featured in the Netflix series, "Stranger Things." Nashville jazz / country chanteuse Sweet Megg (from our "Levitating" cover and recent Australia / New Zealand tour) returns to the mic to give this one a Western Swing flavor. See y'all in 2023!

Seeing Kate Bush being discovered by a younger generation because of Stranger Things was beautiful this year. Kate is a genuine musical genius, unlike anyone else. Her musical achievement is so rich, varied, original, and emotionally deep
@mbrackeva Жыл бұрын
Having said that, this rendition has, apart from text and main melody, nothing in common with the original. And that's a good thing. You shouldn't just "cover" Kate Bush songs, because it's so hard to make them better. Instead PMJ turned it into something quite different, as per usual. And very enjoyable I must say! Wonderful singer too!

You know that feeling Douglas Adams describes where you get this longing directly proportional from how far you are from home? And since Ford was on Earth and his home was Betelguese, it was a stronger feeling than anyone on Earth could understand? That kind of describes how I feel having been a fan of Kate Bush for almost 30 years. And RUTH was the first Kate Bush song I ever heard. And all these people are just discovering her for the first time. Even people that I've tried to get to listen to her over the years who didn't get her are finally listening. It's overwhelming. The song has been changed forever. Kate Bush has been changed forever. It's making me a bit seasick, frankly. But so, so thrilled. And this is a great cover. They kept the spirit of the original while making it their own, which are the hallmarks of any great cover.

One of the things I love about Postmodern Jukebox is that they really get in to the songs they perform. They are obviously excellent musicians and I get the impression they knock out a lot of recordings; I don't know how quickly. But at any rate you can see they are enjoying themselves, as we the listeners are.

I love this interpretation💯 As for Kate, I was an old teenager, 1978, December sometime, Saturday night live, she did two songs - "the man with the child in his eyes" and "them heavy people"... I remember it like it was yesterday. Because she captured my heart at that moment and I've been a loyal and giant fan ever since. There are VERY few famous musicians who have managed to attain and retain the career elegance that she has. She's literally one of a kind 🥰
