Honestly, this is the best version of this song in my opinion. Meg retains the spirit of the original while creating her own spin and dialing everything to 11.
meg has the perfect deepness of voice for this
Meg Myers acknowledged your existence. I'd be ecstatic if I were you
@@DuksonQuak Right?
yep, the way she sings too, that vibrato in parts, for some reason it makes it feel more ethereal.
Oh hello, 80s synth pop, I have missed you more than I care to admit. Meg's taking real good care of you, I see.
Yes very 80's!!😎✴️
Yeah, i do love me some synth pop. I didn't think to call it that, but i do love that sound. takes me back to all of the feels.
Never in a million years did I ever think of Kate Bush or even this version of one of her songs as "synth pop".
Go listen to Weekend blinding lights
Well said!
A cover that preserves the originals intensity and doesnt overblow or understate it. Fantastic!
You said what I said but much better thank you
Exact!
Meg Myers really deserves more attention to be honest...
So much more. She should be getting regular radio play.
Tbh she's my little baby and I don't want to share her
Also I fear that if she becomes mainstream she will no longer make good music so...
She does deserve so much better though
She was being pushed into mainstream briefly about 4 years ago. I remember her being interviewed by Access Hollywood (I worked for NBC at the time, had to watch) when "desire" came out, (which played on the radio quite a bit) during the promotion of her "Sorry album. Don't know the full story, don't think anyone does, but she has expressed in the following album and single "numb" that there were a lot of people telling her what to do, how to look, how to portray herself (notice that she isn't putting out the highly sexualized "femme fatale" persona anymore like before. Maybe there's a connection). Somewhere along the line, she dropped her label, shaved her head, and then took hiatus. That will kill any and all momentum for any "new" artist flirting with mainstream. You can call it "self-sabotage" but, I call it, within this context, being true to yourself-- which is EXTREMELY brave in the music industry *shrugs*. She has been pushed, just not the way she wanted I guess.
But I agree. Meg is damn good, if not better, with what she's doing now. I hope she gets the right attention this time around.
Unreal vocals on this one.
Meg really outdid herself here. And she has a signature sound to her vocals. PERFECT 😍😍😍
I thought you meant unreal because of all of the auto tune
@@adamlmaldonado1412 I just listened to your singing and it's bad. You need a lot of practice. Very off key. I don't think your the one who should be judging other people.
@@psychedlicsouljam1995 my comment was only about the autotune use. I wasn't criticizing otherwise. Thanks for the feedback but I just sing for fun and mostly with the purpose of discussing related mental health topics as I'm a Therapist. I have no vocal training, never been in choir, and I don't pretend to be an expert. So while I'm not really aspiring to be an amazing singer I appreciate your feedback even if given with cruel intentions.
@@adamlmaldonado1412 Except that she sounds the same when singing live, look at the Tiny Desk Live performance.
This is so bizarre. I listen to "Running Up That Hill" by both Placebo and Kate Bush when I'm at work cuz it's one of my favorite songs, then I usually listen to a ton of Meg's songs right after..and now Meg covers it herself. Not to sound lame, but I got cold chills and butterflies in my stomach when I saw this, I'm so excited to play this on repeat lmao
YES!|
Same thing here. Funny because three days ago I was listening to R.U.T.H by KB and swung right over to Meg thinking she could cover KB's version perfectly. Saw this today and was shocked! I had no clue she was planning too do it. Cold chills hit here as well! Checked the browser history to be sure.. yep. Too surreal...
Me too and I'm not kidding but I always thought this song would suit Meg so much.
Look up for the Within Temptation version of RUTH! It's awesome as well.
Same here! I was actually obsessed with both the KB and Placebo's version a few weeks before Meg did this, it was almost as if it were meant to be
Mariah Paige same here with the chills and repeats 😊
She’s far too unique to go mainstream. I actually appreciate the fact that she is in a more underground setting.
"Running Up That Hill" moved up from #33 to #16 on the New Alternative 40 Chart this week!
When is SiriusXM going to start playing her is my question.
@@mcb223 Altnation has gone to crap.I unsubscribed from that garbage.Sad cause they use to be the bomb.
May be because of Pose
No it didn't
This is why I love Kate bush. Her lyrics are relatable for both a man and a woman, this song is that personified. You captured what makes Kate's version so good while adding subtle touches. Very good cover
One of the best covers I’ve ever heard, and I’m super-picky and the original is a masterpiece, so that’s saying a lot.
This is an absolutely fantastic cover of a fantastic song. It has the ethereal resonance of the original, but is also distinct in its own right. Meg Myers, your voice gives me goosebumps.
am I the only one who likes this more than the other one by kate Bush and actually liked it before stranger things season 4 and I tell my friends I like this song and their like oh yeh its from stranger things like wtf
The energy and power vocals from the original + the spacey darker background vibe of Placebo's cover? With YOUR voice? Meg you just covered one of my favorite songs PERFECTLY!! Love you so much!!
Power? I don't think Kate put more emphasis in power for this song. Her version is airy and ethereal. While Meg version has lower key, heavier and more pronounced drum.
This song came on the radio a few days after my grandfather died in 2019. It's one of the few things I can remember in the general time after his death. My family was making funeral arrangements arguments at my grandmother's house and I heard this song in the car while my mother was driving to her house. I remember just taking a set of headphones locking myself in one of the bedrooms while all the adults talked and crying for hours to this song.
Love that voice, has a slight Cher tone. Girl is gonna blow up one day
she did!!! ^__^
yea.. I'm going to have this on repeat for a week.
Agreed.
as am I!
This cover has been a comfort song for me for a short while. When I heard the original in the recent season of Stranger Things, the scene hit so much harder. Love Meg Meyers for this PERFECT cover!
Its a brave thing to cover a legendary song by a legendary artist, and we should be glad she is that brave, because this is fantastic.
Kate Bush wrote such a good song man. Meg does it massive amounts of justice.
This gave me those “good song” chills! Slay it, Meg.
I love when you use the deeper pitch of your range. Your voice is so much more complex than too many other singers these days, who apparently find a comfy groove and never stray from it.
You manage to pack an ageless soul into a timeless song. You make this look so effortless.
Meg is so underrated, I wish she got the recognition she deserves.
its weird how perfect this song fits for her
I dedicate this to the love of my life, my Babu, my fiancee, best friend, my everything. He passed away on March of this year. I will never forget this year, 2022 the worst year of my life
Meg sang this song the best!
This song has now met its peak of performance.
This is one of my favorite songs of all time. You did, Kate Bush justice. Beautiful!
I worship the ground Meg walks upon.
Shane Cross i can confirm this statement
It doesn't hurt me
Do you want to feel how it feels?
Do you want to know that it doesn't hurt me?
Do you want to hear about the deal that I'm making?
It's you
It's you and me
And if I only could
I'd make a deal with God
And I'd get him to swap our places
Be running up that road
Be running up that hill
Be running up that building
Say, if I only could, oh...
You don't want to hurt me
But see how deep the bullet lies
Unaware I'm tearing you asunder
Oh, there is thunder in our hearts
Is there so much hate for the ones we love?
Tell me, we both matter, don't we?
You
It's you and me
It's you and me
You won't be unhappy
And if I only could
I'd make a deal with God
And I'd get him to swap our places
Be running up that road
Be running up that hill
Be running up that building
Say, if I only could, oh...
You
It's you and me
It's you and me
You won't be unhappy
C'mon, baby
C'mon darling
Let me steal this moment from you now
C'mon, angel
C'mon, c'mon, darling
Let's exchange the experience
Say, if I only could
I'd make a deal with God
And I'd get him to swap our places
Be running up that road
Be running up that hill
With no problems
Say, if I only could,
I'd make a deal with God
And I'd get him to swap our places
Be running up that road
Be running up that hill
With no problems
Say, if I only could...
No problem
Be running up that road
Be running up that hill
Be running up that road
Be running up that hill
Be running up that hill
Are you crazy or something?
@@nicholasharr5091Everyone is crazy in thier own way. Nice question...
Im just sayin.. why did you take all that time to put down lyrics like that it seems obsessive. I mean do u ,but just trying to understand that
I copy and pasted the lyrics. I am obsessed with the song. Very relatable. Not bad to enjoy a song.
Shandee Franke what does it mean? Is it talking about someone with depression? Idk
No.1 on the billboardcharts yaaay!!!!!!!!
I'm 53 yrs old and remember the original (which I still love) and all the others that came after (and love those as well). Your version Meg is truly phenomenal. Not many artists have the ability to instill into others that passion they have inside. Yours radiates outward connecting with others, feeding them your energy. I feel so much coming from you in this song especially. Well done. Use your talent wisely. Peace!
And the queen delivers once again
i like this even more than the OG ( kate bush’s songwriting was outstanding!)
Wow! You recreated Kate Bush's song. This is my favorite song. You sound so amazing . I just love your singing ...aloha
Wait this is a cover?now I have to listen to the original😵but this is amazing.
@@platypus0123 Kate Bush is the original singer to this song, many people remade this... but Meg Myers did an outstanding job on this
@@Artari the 80s will always be a gem but when its redone it has more recognition.
@@platypus0123 this is so true, but for those who have been in those times....we appreciate the value of it , when make well... re can relive it and it been shared to younger generations. Hopefully, they will see where it came from. Aloha , great drawings you have made
This song is constantly played on the radio where I live.
DECLINE MANAGEMENT BROUGHT ME HERE! THIS IS A BOP!
This song played as an ad while I was waiting for another song to play..... so fuckin glad I snapped out off my day dream to listen to the song... also glad I didn't skip it
When Hounds Of Love came out I wore that record out. This is awesome and truly worthy.
Wow!! The original is one of my all time favorites, but I think I like this version better!! This young woman is an amazing talent and should be on every radio station!!! Love it!!!!!!!
Cheers
I wanna listen to this song forever. That's what I call a cover
I wasn't waiting for this
But I needed it
Exactly.
Same.
Wowwwwwwww!!! This song gives me chills when u sing it and so does it when placebo does! I love this song so much ughhhhhh lol
Meg Myers singing one of my fav. song. It's not even my birthday but still thanks, special lady!
Meg everything in your upbringing and your amazing spirit courage integrity love and beauty came together here. Amazing so powerful so much goodness crested towards a better world. We love you sooooo much! Evan and Pat
Dear Meg, thank you so much for this and everything you do. This is a sad, cruel, and lonesome world, but this world is a better place because of you. Truly, thank you. Today has been a shit day, but I can smile and rest easy listening to this. Meg Myers=Empress
I'm crying tears of joy over this
I've been a Meg Myers fan since I first heard Monster. And this, this is just awesome. The same feel as Kate, but with Meg's distinctive voice. I am glad to hear that her voice still has the edge in it, I will keep listening to pretty much everything Meg puts out!
Came here from a UA-cam ad! This song is soooooo good
Meg Myers vocals are unique. She deserves more.
I'm forever in love with the emotions your singing carries. 🖤 Great cover!
She captivates me like no other artist!!
Wow.
This song has both interested me in the music of Meg Myers, as well as Kate Bush's music. I only knew Kate Bush as the lady who sings with Peter Gabriel in "Don't Give Up". Now I have two artists that I need to find all their music and listen to it.
Oh, happy days ahead!
:D
somehow I feel that this cover is a gift for those who have been following you for years and who fantasized about listening to this song performed by you
thanks Meg
WE'RE MAKING OUR WAY TO HYPERBOREA WITH THIS 🗿⚡
I have downloaded meg's version, placebo's version, and of course the original by Kate Bush. This song is unbelievable, there are no words!
It's amazing how you can feel so connected to a stranger through their lyrics. I've never met Meg Myers, but I feel like she's in my head. She says what I'd like to, but in a way more talented and beautiful way! Thank you Meg for making me feel less alone in this darkness!
This is great Meg. I can feel lots of emotion in your voice. ❤️🧡💛💚💙
after all these years, still getting caught in the strength of her voice.
EPIC cover!!!!!!!!! Totally worth the wait. Just brilliant Meg! Nuff said.
Every song Meg does is amazing!!
This is so good, I thought this was the original song. Love the cover.
Just absolute fire. Enough said.❤️❤️
This song brought me to Meg, I can’t believe I’ve never heard of her until this!!!
She is really talented. Her live version of this sounds like the recording, her vocal skills are that good
I’m excited to know her story and listen to her albums 🌈
Say nothing and some of her early stuff like mistakes and monster are awesome but when she drops Teenagers my life will be completed once more by her thanks for the energy Meg♡
BEST COVER OF THE YEAR
From Russia with Love!!!!!!!!!!!!! You are the BEST
Gets better and better with every listen. Meg really knows how to resonate :)
Meg you might be Kate's twin you did this song so much original justice and adding your own flair so much, it'd amazing!
I've been obsessed with this song for about a month now and it's definitely a fav
i just remember on the scene where max is about to enter that creepy house, there is a tomb name MYERS
i heard this song on the radio and i was instantly obsessed with it. i'm so glad i found this song, it's amazing.
I feel spirit of the nineties in this song, maybe the end of the eighties
My day just got better
Underrated song
It deserves to be +100m views
Well done, Meg Myers! Keep going, girl. Keep your head up and your aim true. You are a very talented young woman. I truly appreciate all the pleasure and joy your music and video's bring me. Thank you!
I couldn't really say I've kept up with a singer/band since the very beginning before Meg. Huge fan since Daughter of The Choir EP. It's really cool to see her musical transformation with every new song/album she releases. Never been bored, not once. Great cover!
Take me to the disco album is good too.. you may want to give it a listen..
@@freshprospective Yeah I have all her albums. I really like it too
Megs a Kate Bush fan, that seals it shes the best.
Meg Myer is totally underrated. I hope she gets what she deserves! she has such a beautiful vocal.
Her number of fans is way too small, but judging from the comments section we more than make up for it with our appreciation of her. I cannot even think when was the last time I paid for music, but I bought TMTTD on pre-order.
Meg Myers deserves an Oscar for such a performance! 👏🎬
This a beautiful, Intelligent, complex remake on this, well done Meg!!
This cover and Retrofile's are the best ive heard 🔥
Reminds me of a track that would have come out in the early 2010's. I love it.
I’m surprised this didn’t come out in the last couple months
I remember going to a Bush concert years ago and Meg was the opener at the time and I had never heard of her and after seeing her I knew from that moment she was going to be a huge success like she is now. She is such an incredible and talented artist!
This song made me cry tears of joy
Tears streaming down my face at the end of this... So happy. So blessed.
Show her some love and buy the song on iTunes or wherever!!
0:22! When our favorite Meg Myers gets us all...
😇❤️! ILY MEG
Thanks Meg ! May running up those hills never be too hard for You.
She covered Kate Bush. Holy frig. Hounds of Love was an awesome album and I thought not that many people knew about it, so this makes me happy.
Meg, please live 200 years. Your soul is amazing.
I listened to this, and this is how my brain remembered the song from back then. I listened to the original, and it just felt off after hearing this. Superb job, Meg.
Absolutely brilliant! It stayed true to the original Kate Bush version except with Meg Myer's unmistakable energy! I always want to play Running up that hill during my DJ set at a local goth night but seldom do because the K.B. version was recorded in such low quality. This version however just made the rotation along with "Jealousy" which always fills the dance floor!
My undying love is pledged to Meg Myers.
Wow. Meg really understood this song to cover it so well.
This is such a SERVE
She remodeled the music but still has the same energy as the original
Just brought to the modern days. This together with The Chromatics and Orla Garland cover are the best versions of all
Not a bad cover at all. As a person who went through his teens in the 80s, I really enjoy this... First Aid Kit does an amazing cover of this song also.
Heard this on the radio today. Had to search it up~
Hyperborean magic activated
Ancestral blood memory time
Oh, Meg. You are a treasure.
Keeping with that 80"s sound with your amazing vocals= perfection
