She was an absolute joy to work with in every aspect, and the band too. I did the on stage sound engineering and developed the headset mic for her. (1979) Never has an artist or crew put so much effort and dedication into a tour.... and i did many.

How can any person not have a lifelong crush on Kate Bush?

Minute 23, "You have to believe in yourself. You can't just accept what other people say all the time otherwise you become them, not yourself." A beautiful sentiment.

"You're now just over 21, and you've made it. What is there left to do now?" "Everything."

God was showing off when he created Kate Bush 🤩🥰

Notice how respectful and polite people behaved back then compared to now.

What a fantastic woman. When I was 21 I was an unemployed pot head.

I met Kate once in my village in Devon.....Amazingly polite and had time for me and my partner....Wonderful lady

She’s got the kind of eyes that seem to be gazing into some dimension or reality that others cannot see.

Hard to believe this was 40 years ago.

This is nuts. Imagine being 20 years old and having this sort of responsibility on your hands. She was prepared to take it all on somehow, and then to continue doing it for years to come. How amazing is that?

Not a pop star, but an artist through and through. Grounded, honest, modest and focussed on her work. Both of her brothers seem grounded, solid people too. The product of quality parents.

How could a girl that young come up with music like this???? "You give me life, please don't let me go, you crush the lily in my soul..." How can anyone not be completely smitten and mesmerized? Her music and vocal presence comes across as though it has emerged right from the subconscious level of dreams into the real world. HOW?????

What a great role model, mature, brilliant, gifted, humble, level-headed, vulnerable, a leader, executive, artist, choreographer, kind and brave.

After watching so many KB interviews, my takeaway is her honesty. She doesn’t take offense at any questions and just responds from the heart. Just lovely.

It's strange. Her music still sounds so fresh and amazing, it could have been made yesterday. But when you watch this doco, and see the ancient cars and fashions etc., you realise how long ago it really was.

23:28 ‘You have to believe in yourself. You can’t just accept what other people say all the time, otherwise you become them and not yourself.’ A highly valuable and ever relevant wisdom.

The greatest female artist in living memory, creative, artistic, original, talented, gifted and musically brilliant. No one comes anywhere near her genius.

I wish I could be 17 again back in late 79, followed her everywhere❤

That girl was some sort of angel just so full of joy and spirit just beautifull

Thank goodness for KZfaq, this is a historic document to see Kate performing in concert. The whole family are well-rounded and intelligent people, and Kate herself is lev el headed and mature. A very rare glimpse into the legend.

Such a humble and sweet person. Six years later (1985) Kate released one of the best albums of all time, "Hounds of Love". A true Masterpiece of music. I love the first three tracks, the hits if you will. But tracks 4 to 12 still give me chills. Kate made an album that sounded unlike any music that had been made before. Not many artists can say that.

A talent. She was at her prime when the public was still thinking independently - a time when the public knew and recognised real talent. Wish those times will come back.

Paddy has had a huge imput and impact on Kate's music over the years! Let's give one for Paddy, an unsung hero in the wonderful world of Kate Bush music! ( :

Her smile, her personality in interviews are just lovely, very humble lady, oh and she is a musical original genius

There would never be a Kate Bush in today's music industry. People with real character, profound idiosyncrasies, pure natural talent, incredible uniqueness, insight and intelligence, and without all that socio-political baggage that plagues the modern world, belong to another era, and will never be seen again, except in these old video archives. I don't just feel like I've lost the most important part of myself, it's like we've lost the entire human race, and all that's left is a shadow.

She was such a sweetheart in those days, prettiest girl ever!

I shall NEVER forget the first time I heard Kate Bush singing.A treasured memory indeed

God she's so charismatic and smart. Love her so much.

I cant believe i didnt know about her, really, until i saw documentaries like this in just the last few years. Shes fantastic. I feel so lucky because Ive found an artistic treasure trove, late in life, I didnt know about. (American, born 1961.)

More intelligent than every current 21 year old popstar combined!!!

She came from a very musical and gifted family which really grounded her and she knew from a very young age what she was destined for. Also a very private person too which I think is why she didn't do tours very often. I loved Kate Bush from the moment I heard her playing on the radio in the kitchen as a child thinking wow who is this singer she's so different to everything I've heard before. She came from a loving and very supportive family which made her into that totally unique and strong minded and driven person she was. Such dynamic and thought provoking lyrics penned from a young teenager, she was born to be the performer she was. A one off without doubt, I haven't seen anybody like her since and doubt I ever will. She's settled now and living a quiet life with her family. She deserves it, she blessed us with such beautiful music over the decades since she came from nowhere in the late 70s and dazzled us with her theatrics and ethereal voice with Wutherung Heights. She's simply brilliant, no superlatives could do her justice.

Regardless of gender, generation or decade, KB represents a level of commitment to artistry that is nearly unattainable, and almost impossible in the industry of music. A benchmark reference to anyone in the pursuit. Besides being absolutely f****** brilliant and gifted!! The first time I saw her I was frightened by it.

such a gentle soul

Kate Bush seems otherworldly even now. What kind of impact did that carry in the 70's and 80's?!?!?

One of only 4 musicians (bands) to have 8 albums or more in the UK top 40 simultaneously. Elvis when he passed, Bowie when he passed, The Beatles when their catalogue was release on ITunes and Kate Bush when she announced her first concerts in 35 years.

Just found this on youtube. I was at the Sunderland Empire Theatre in April 1979 as a 15 year old. I had never seen and have never seen to this day any performance as brilliant as Kate Bush.

What can one say about Kate Bush! I was at that first night in Liverpool so many years ago and it was just a privilege to see her perform live, she is and always will be a true British icon. J

God, she is so beautiful and so talented!

An incredible talent, songwriter, musician and performer, and frighteningly clued-up for her age then. Damn we're lucky to have her.

She changed my life with Wuthering Heights and The Kick Inside. Completely changed my life. I cherish her🌹❤️

Talented, Quirky, Imaginative, Beautiful, Spiritual, good-humoured, Fantastic.

I saw her on this tour in Manchester - just brilliant! I still have the £3.50 ticket.

Back in the days were Art was first and Money was second... sadly long gone.

Kate was the real English rose most of the USA could never understand! She was never debased by the gutter press because she was always just Kate, a very intelligent person who knew what was what! In a complete different class to the plastic bands and so called performers we are tortured with nowadays!

i am so angry to be French!! it took me years to find out about oh so many great (mostly English, some Americans) Artists that i did not use to listen to or understand their work!!! thank God for the internet and this access to oh so many documentaries helping discover such great performers/writers/composers i've missed out for so long...

"Don't you have a problem now ? What's next are you going to follow the success ?" - Never for Ever - The Dreaming - Hounds of Love - The Sensual World - Aerial Five astounding albums !!

Kate Kate Kate, PLEASE put out that tour in full on DVD and one from the 2014 shows too. Some of us could not get a ticket. 😟

"You have to believe in yourself" - wisdom far beyond her young age.

What a beautiful soul.

imagine being this talented, creative, intelligent AND being absolutely beautiful. It's amazing watching her as she was still pretty much starting out and knowing how much she will evolve as a person and artist. mind blowing

As well as being absolutely beautiful and intelligent, it’s amazing at the age of 21 how much wisdom she had beyond her years..special artist

She is so sweet. So different in interviews, so sweet, yet so very deep in performance.

Unbelievable! I am one year younger than Kate (not a very chivalresque thing to mention). But just to mention how we adored her in those days. this feature captures the magic of Kate and those days.

Oh man, I am SO thankful that Ms. Kate Bush DID NOT go on to become anything else but the Amazing and Awesome Singer/Songwriter that she is, was, and always will be!!! She will forever be in my heart as one of my most dearly beloved and favorite musicians of all time!!!♥♥♥

How great is this? And in 2022 she`s heading to No1 in the US charts

It's incredible how her personality immediately shines through So special

This is amazing finding this film of Kates first tour. I was about 19 or 20 and helped the costume designer. It was my job to find and buy many of the costumes for the dancers and the best one which I was sewing in the van on the way to the venue (as time was so tight) was Kate's costume with the 'wings' in blue. Brilliant time x

She comes across as a gorgeous person. Beautiful and so talented x

This was delightfully inspiring, what a talented woman. I only got into Kate a few months ago, but she so quickly became my female role model, like an older sister I have never met. That kind of person is very rare, and I'm so happy that I found her.💙💙💙

what a fantastic personality.

I remember watching this when it went out how many of todays pop stars realise that the wireless head set mike was made for Kate first so she could be dancing and singing at the same time? She was revolutionary then and now. My ex boyfriend got a kiss on the cheek from her on the first tour she did at the Birmingham date and I was fortunate to get tickets top see her last live event in London. It was indeed an event not a concert. I LOVE HER just wish she had done more live events she is an enigma

This isn't just "good quality" it is the best possible upload you could get due to the way you got hold of this. This is surely "Best quality possible"

What a lovely human being

How cool are her bros!!! Solid fam💪🏼

I'm so glad there's this second wave of recognition! I've always adored her . But collectively her band equally remarkable elevating her immense talent. It's quite obvious when you hear her speak that she's very intelligent, not too different from the likes of Robert Plant, Jimmy Page or David Gilmour when interviewed. They're all prepared to share their experiences when asked pertinent questions but Kate Bush just fills a room with charisma and warmth.

Fun fact. Kate Bush was one of Tupac Shakurs favorite artists/musicians.

This video is so neat. What a window into Kate's beginnings.

Kate was the last "studio prodigy". In that the label saw her potential but instead of cashing immediately in gave her a few years of singing, acting, dancing lessons to round out her massive talent. The last of a now gone breed. Hounds of Love my favorite. People would dance to it in 1986.

Kate Bush is a musical genius. Has always been my favourte singer/songwriter. A professional dedicated to her craft.

I could watch and listen to Kate Bush all day and night... love her...

Her voice is so powerful she is so tiny and gentle.

This beautiful ethereal goddess of music… from another realm… her wisdom and knowingness… her lyrics… her goosebump refrains…wow wow unbelievable…

I think she has a great future ahead of her. I'll be watching/listening.

Old soul. Wise well past her years.

Well beyond her years. People like her are on a different level. Almost alien.

My oh my , modeste, talented, wonderfull, powerfull, gracious and so rare. takes my breath away.

She would be perfect to headline Glastonbury.

If only the music industry could follow her example of how an artist should follow their music career. Wholesome and Honest And her music is clean and non-conforming. You can feel it in her lyrics She is not trying to change you - only entertain you Todays music is a shit show compared to Kate Bush.

What can you say about her? Arguably the best artist to ever come out of Britain. Beautiful to look at, fascinating to listen to, fiercely intelligent, humble, determined.... Yet you still want to protect her. One in several generations. Possibly unique. Her band deserved more credit though. They were great, too.

Such a natural beauty and talent, Kate Bush is in a league that few singers and musicians even rise to, and has the charm and character you so rarely see. She is such a joy to listen to both singing, and speaking, a sweetheart of a soulful woman.

i love our kate.... timeless woman and music :P

Just got PROG mag today and she's all over the cover. Found this video never seen before. Utterly astounding !! She was and still is an amazing talent. What gets me is she wrote MWTCIHE at 13!!! She was just a child herself. I'm a big early genesis fan and used to think she was the female Peter Gabriel. I know she took inspiration from him as she credits him for 'opening the windows ' on one of her early albums. But I much prefer her music to Gabriel's solo stuff. The depth and bredth to her music is staggering. Ballads/ rock/pop/Eastern and even musichall on her first album. Kate Bush. A true talent. One in a billion. I salute you!!!!!

The best of all time. I Love her since The Dreaming. I was only 11 years Old. ❤

This woman leaves me speechless over and over again🦢💕🙏

I absolutely adore Kate Bush. She is a complete treasure. An incredibly gifted, original artist.

Such maturity in a young person, answering the most stupid of questions with much grace and intelligence.

What I love about these documentaries is that they show 'the work" of the performing artist.

Kate shows the level of human potential that can actually be realised with the love, protection, treasuring of human spirit, intelligence and talent. She's the embodiment of godhead as human- of what human beings can be.

No computer autotune for the vocals. Outstanding!

I saw her on the 16th of April 1979 at the Palladium. I fell in love with her that night….

The absolute best … I’ve really never seen creativity like this from just one person in all of my 52yrs on this planet 🌏 it’s been an honour to witness

She's so beautiful and talented! Love Kate❤️

I’m the same age as Kate but back when she was first on my listening radar and on tv I though she was like 15 years older than myself. So Sophisticated and deep with life’s lessons . Wow, she still looks great

Kate Bush was and still is my one and only inspiration to music, romance, and uniqueness.

So genuine, so intelligent with so much inner beauty. "A few more lines - I hope they are happy ones"

Omg she was adorable. So fresh and hungry and wide-eyed. People always mention Bjork and Tori Amos along with Kate Bush, but you can really see the influence and energy in this video. Now, I think of Joanna Newsom, with that literary influence on her songwriting and the twee voice.

Ohh... WOW WOW WOW WOW WOW WOW....just saw this documentary just right now in 2019, 11th of october and I am german, with very poor english abilities and....I just hope Kate is doing/feeling well! She is one of my heroes! And please just be a normal human being, just like you always was! Thank you for your big/great emotions/feelings you always share with us...thank you ... !!! thank you .. thank you!

lionheart is an underrated classic imo, thanks for this!

I was always mesmerised by her songs even as a child growing up.
