The great artist Salvador Dali said that every artist should paint the Crucify of Christ. Following his decree I think every musical artist should sing "Wuthering Heights" once in their career. Beautiful
Agree for sopranos. It is a guantlet that they should all try. Would love to hear this more often as a recital "final song" it will quickly reveal bad phrasing, horrible diction and poor support if all those things are not in place.
It is another nice version of wuthering heights. I like her softness. She has a voice like crystal bells!
Yes she has! Excellent depiction.
I always said I wish I was a classic opera singer to do an opera version of this brilliant song... Unfortunately I sing like a broken record. This lady is everything I wish I was, voice-wise. Brilliant!
I don't care what the rest of you say, I am fascinated by this and her. I think she does an excellent job.
I SO AGREE! I love her rendition of this! It is one of the most difficult songs to sing, and she NAILED it! And she made it her own which is even more incredible! I've heard a few good covers of this but hers is my favorite!
Right?
i agree she gives it her all👏🏻♥️ love Her singing Well Done Emer
Why don't you care? That's not acceptable. We matter too
I doubt I'm alone in saying that I love this cover of Wuthering Heights.
An absolutely amazing rendition of the Kate Bush classic. The operatic approach works great and the musical arrangement is fantastic. The video production deserves special recognition. Emer’s numerous tributes to the original are obvious but she doesn’t fail to create her very own version which is brilliant.
Thanks so much Holger! So thrilled with your feedback! :-)
i have yet still to hear ANY singer other than Pat Benatar even attempt the next note up the scale in the verse 'You know it's me Cathy'...i'm sure it's a mere oversight my bad...but i have heard perhaps 40 versions or so....
Easily and by far tops my very few favorite covers of this very difficult song
I absolutely love that you incorporated bits of the Kate bush dance and hand movements during the chorus. Brilliant touch!
This is maybe the best thing I've ever listened to
THIS IS ONE OF THE MOST BEAUTIFUL ROMANTIC SONGS I HAVE EVER HEARD!
this is very good...very good indeed👍
I LOVED IT -- and she's tipping her hat to Kate! Kate's one of my favorite artists, she's one of the great talents of our time. This is the sincerest form of flattery!
Thanks for the comment! That's exactly what was intended - a tribute to a true superstar! X
WOW such a powerful yet angelic voice
You definitely did this song justice. Great cover. One of the best I've heard.
You even did the dance, makes it even more lovely
Happy Birthday to Emily & Kate today!!! 🎉🎁🎊🎂
It’s a beautiful rendition.
My mother was an opera singer so trust me when I say that this woman did this cover in her own style, in her own genre, and absolutely killed it!
Emily Bronte would be so proud. And to think that she almost didn't publish the novel that inspired this beautiful song.
3:04 onwards this absolutely rocks
LOVE YOU Emer
OH MY GOD...Words fail. Brilliant!
Great job !
MAGNIFICENT PERFORMANCE!❤🌺🙋♀️
Seems to suit an operatic voice with those acrobatic soaring notes XXX beautiful 🙏💚🎶thankyou
Wow! I love arrangement and the way it builds! It's not as creepy or quirky as the original but it's kinda refreshing to see someone do an interpretation instead of an imitation while still referencing Kate. And the POWER in that voice - whew!!!
I really love this version of the song🙏❤
Strange,but fascinating song!
Creative genius wow I live on the Jersey Shore. The Atlantic on this foggy night very loud crashing on the dunes. Yet I’m looking out my window into the dark. ... NOPE Emer isn’t cold trying to get in my window. Lol shucks seriously that was beautiful From the words to the music the visuals colors against black and white the building excitement that was FUN!!! Excellent all involved thank you after a rough day fixing machines this made my day !!
Beautiful. Divine
Those drums (and violins at the last bit) creating such a irrepresible drive for "running home" are making the whole piece work like a charm
What a beautiful interpretation!! ✨
ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE ADORE THE ORIGINAL AND OMG DOUBLE ADORE THIS VERSION
The Celtic/Opera genre blend is on full display here. really, really difficult to do but you pulled it off. Solid effort, hun.
That was amazing
Music overshadows the amazing vocals
Amazing compositions
Lovely version - tough song. Enjoyed it
Beautiful wow
No words, just awesome!!!
omg can't believe kate bush is 60 yrs old #TimesFlies
Monsters talent....congrulations!!!
The best!!!
This is stunning.
one of the best voices in the world
Such a BEAUTIFUL Tribute to Kate Bush on her 60th birthday too!
Thanks so much for the comment!
Totally fabulous!!!
I love everything about this...
Thanks Nicola! Yay! x
Wonderfull !
a cover is not an imitation of the original, she sings this song the way she likes it, and she does it great, Kate is awesome, Emer is awesome
Agreed
Love the original and in love with this cover. This woman has such a wonderful voice that is soothing to the ear.
I appreciate the comment so much thank you!
She has a beautiful voice and did a good cover....I mean, this song was supposed to be sung with sorrow and pain and she nailed that
So beautifully sung and arranged, breathtaking, brava!
This lady has talent, no doubt. But no one can cover Kate Bush. And this is what makes her so special.
OMG!!! OOOOO MMMMMM GGGGGGGGGGGGGG!!! I enjoyed even more than the original, it's this a Capital sin to feel like this?? Holly, girl, the arrangements to the song, your voice, your hand "Katey" gestures touching the window. Oh, boy, best cover of this song ever!
A classic timeless song. I give this version a thumbs up
Wow! Congratulations! Your voice is so beautiful! Reminds me of how I imagine a mermaid or a fairy would sound like.
With all respect for the original, I think that this music was made for you. Superb and great. Thank you so much Mrs Emer, I which that your God be always with you and your family, and pls. Don't stop to sing for the pleaser of all of us wow follow you. Respectfully from Lisbon with love 🇵🇹
Great work Emer. Usually NOT a fan of covers but this was so well done I felt compelled to leave a comment. I can appreciate talent when I hear it. Thank you for sharing. 🙏
Well I appreciate that very much Peter thank you! :-)
Different... but truly masterfull! Thank you!
This is a definite WOW Emer ! So many things so right on here. This is majestic,sultry, expressive and technically perfect at the same time.
Loving all the words you used to describe this! Thanks so much James! More vids to come soon that are a little more mainstream, but I'm thrilled you liked this one :-)
I'm especially looking forward to when you release "The Voice". I'm betting the 'Force Of Nature' with that song would be no other than Brendan Graham. Mr. Graham has done so much with regard to Irish cultural revivalism with his many beautiful and poignant songs and his literature about the Irish experience. As you already probably knew, I love the Irish people deeply. Part of Ireland's mystical appeal for me is how , for a relatively small land, it has contributed to fields like vocals, instrumentation, dance and poetry in a beautifully disproportionate large percentage. :)
Brendan Graham will definitely get mentioned but it's his subject 'Mother Nature' and Irish history that I'll be focussing on! Your love if Ireland is so evident and humbling James! Three songs in this series will be a strong nod to Ireland and it's rich musical heritage so I hope you enjoy them :-)
Beautifully arranged and recorded.
Awesome version, the best cover of this song I've seen on youtube!!!
You should see Angra's version
....I swear I'm in Heaven with angels listening to your voice 👼 👼 👼
luv this video and song emer
Thank you!
Emer, I really like this production. Very cinematic your perform. Beautiful, such a drama actress look! Great.
Wow, awesome, love it.
Thank You!!! xxx
classical music will never be the same after this. whew
I like this.
As good if not better than the original. I am sure Kate Bush would be so proud. Grew up in the 70s and as a fan of Kate Bush and this song was iconic. Not heard anybody sing it better until now. Beautiful interpretation and wonderful vocals.
The only true way to appreciate this song is to have read the book first. Then you will understand the passion, longing and desperation in Kate Bush's voice in this song, something sorely missing in any cover's performance and recording. Its not a cheerful song but one that shows much sorrow, emptiness and wanting. Only Kate Bush can do it because she wrote the song interpreting what she thought would be the feelings of Kathy. She sang it well but the performance is nowhere near Kate Bush in its depth and emotion. Still a beautiful performance.
Wonderful. You can tell she's a professional singer.
I like this cover. I'm a definite Kate Bush fan and I heard covers of this song by Pat Benatar and a few more. This one stands out both by the perfect pitch and by the affect of the visual act. This singer can act too! When I heard this song in 1980 by Kate it had about the same effect on me as scratching a black board with a chalk. I wondered how anyone could like that. Well - I did the second time and from there on out. No one else, however perfectly sung, had that effect on me.
Wow! Very very good. Great work. I love kate bush forever. Congratulations
How did you do that? I Couldn't imagine anyone could cover that, especially so well. Since I discovered you, I am constantly amazed by your talent.
KATE WOULD BE SUPER PROUD
Aw, well she's one of a kind is Kate but this is just a little tribute to her on her 60th xxx
