You got it... a REAL person, a real talent and one of the most compelling singers of all time. As Elton John said; "Where is the next Kate Bush?" there is none. She is one of a kind.
It was refreshing to see an interview where KB is treated respectfully, not patronised or objectified. So many treat her as an oddity or a temptress and that saddens me. This man treated her like the gifted musician that she is. It was very nice to watch and was one of the only interviews I've seen where she looked truly comfortable. Thanks to whoever uploaded it.
@@624radicalham yes, absolutely... i mean, i shouldnt have to explain why saying that kind of thing to a stranger on the street is frowned upon as "catcalling". sure its nice, but its definitely unwelcoming for people to be so concerned with an artists appearance over their art
@@tricksyfroggy6117 Catcalling is horrible and disrespectful. And no. Comment sections on social media don't compare to live catcalling. Commenting on a person's appearance is human nature. Russell Crowe was just on a talk show. All of the comments are about how fat he is. Is it right? Not really. But he IS fat. Too fat for his own good. So it can be said. This is human nature and it's not going to change no matter how many social justice warriors want it to. Just like violence. It's ingrained in human beings. It always was and always will be. What can be done is teaching new behavior so 'catcalling' and school shootings are not done. But saying someone is gorgeous and hot, and beautiful and has big or small breasts, or tall legs, or hair or no hair, lost too much weight, gained too much weight ... that's not going to happen. Kate Bush was an artist, is an artist, and a great one. The 70's were full of demeaning women in interviews. Not done anymore in interviews. But saying she's gorgeous and has nice whatever is NOT objectifying a woman .. are a man for that matter. The real problem is over sensitivity and getting offended over everything. Which you haven't done. But too many people do, and it starts with this silliness of saying that complementary commenting on a person's appearance is patronizing and objectifying.
She was/is supremely talented as a singer/songwriter, musician, dancer and entertainer. Her lyrics were often psychologically insightful and infused with a semantic magic that seduced your senses into submission before you'd even realised you were under attack. She was also, without any doubt, astonishingly beautiful. I don't really see any point in denying that fact in the name of equality.
She was no fool, a smart cookie. Little sweet voice, but old head on young shoulders. She made it easy on herself, no drugs, no scandal, great talent. What a lady.
@@80smusicfan90 I have a magazine solely dedicated to Kate. Interviews with session musicians around the time of the first albums reveal that she smoked weed in the studio with them. Everyone knows she smokes cigarettes. It doesn't matter. She's still a lovely person. I've never read a bad thing about her otherwise.
@@alexburakov3109 I'm sorry, I don't know. It's a British publication( "Ultimate Music Guide" from the makers of "Uncut") and I'm Australian. I bought it second hand on Ebay. It has background stories on the making of all of her albums.
Her voice sends me into a relaxed, almost hypnotic state whether she is singing or speaking. It's the sound of an angel whispering in your ear. This genius woman is everything.
I adore KB. I sent a poem to her once. I sent it to her fan club with a note saying please give this to Kate, I didn't expect a reply but the fan club secretary sent me a reply saying they gave it to her. I'm still proud of that. This woman is one of rock and pop music's greatest song writers and performers. She is utterly fantastic.
+LittleRedCassandra is it weird to feel/think that the passion she felt/passion laced along the song wuthering heights at her age (18) was something you predict to feel at the age of 25...as if she's advanced in this emotional state considering that you have the notion that this kind of emotion exist/has ever been felt...just that it's not for you to feel yet ???
Don't worry too much about it, life is not a race to the finish line, we all move forward and develop at our own pace, and time is still very much on your side, all the best :-)
what a great interview - finally someone asking just about the music and influences etc not about personal life and trying to get a rise out of the artist. He was really great and respectful
In the late 1980's I worked as a writer for a music magazine. I met and interviewed very famous rock stars but they were mostly male. I feel that if I had met and interviewed Kate Bush, saw that beautiful smile and experienced her gentle manner and lovely voice in person, I would have started to fall in love with her. Kate was such a lovely creature to behold! A living doll.
back in 78/80 as a french teenage boy who was listening to " The Kick inside" , "Lionheart" or "Never Forever" I never thought Kate Bush was such a young person... I'm still amazed today! and btw thanks a lot youtube for allowing some sort of time travel.
Jme GL I'm actually a few years older than Kate and while I remember being told that she was quite young around this time, I still had perceptions of a much more mature woman, based on the strength of her videos. Didn't realise at the time what a little cutie she was.
It would be nice if all of Kate's media interviewers were as pleasant and even-tempered as this chap was. He asked intelligent questions about her music, listened to her responses and gave her time to answer them. This interview and one by Paul Gambaccini stand out for being quite respectful of Kate and her work. Anyone know the name of the interviewer?
Absolutely incredible interview. A very good interviewer and her composed, intelligent, thoughtful, kind answers at the age of 20 here - I love the way she acknowledges her inspiration from others.
It's so surreal to me to listen to her talk. Her singing voice gave me the impression she would have a fairly high pitched talking voice, but nope, she's very softspoken.
There isn't enough superlative words to do this amazing talent justice. Writing very thought provoking lyrics at 13, a very gifted family with a very theatrical and artsy daughter who did it her way, and boy did she make an impact. Hearing Wuthering Heights for the first time as a kid on the radio I was blown away by her ethereal voice and her whole other worldly nature. I was hooked on Kate Bush since the day I heard that song. And she went on to create other albums and great songs. I'm not being melodramatic but she's a one of a kind, nobody else was like her then and nobody like her now. Simply amazing
I was told this was her very first TV interview. If so, I believe she handled herself so well for a young woman in the late 1970s and for having little experience with the media and the press. Always ahead of her time. We love you, Kate ❤
An artist who gives recognition to the people who helped her is a true one. And Kate has always been a beautiful human being, her behaviour is her career. She is very pretty, outside and inside.
Kate is a force of nature, yet also other-wordly in her eloquence and composure. Everything about her - her creativity, her tone, her intuitiveness, the thoughtful and flawless way she answers the questions, seem to be channeling some higher power. She is wise beyond her years. Us mere mortals can just sit back and enjoy the marvel that is Kate Bush.
What a fascinating person, Kate Bush! She has such remarkable composure, charming, wit and she's an extraordinary empath. To sense and want to feel the thoughts of others and interpret their emotions into lyric, song and performance it's pleasant to learn interpretation and presentation from a true artisan.
What an absolutely pure, honest and well-spoken young lady. She seems to have done very well managing the music business. Such an incredibly talented artist.
Towards the end of the interview she was asked about the music business and it being a tough one. Now 42 yr. later we all know she did it brilliantly having full control of her musical career.
what a soft girl in contrast to the amazing actress and singer, musician on the stage. I think all the music genios are very shy and Kate is one of them.I love her music and videos and lirycs, and performances.SHE IS THE BEST FOR ME IN ALL THE WAYS. I am 28. And I knew her only 5 months ago. I compare her at the same level of Pink floyd, David Bowie, Yes,etc. and all that people that change music to make real and artistic modern music
She's so mutch in touch with her inner female spirit, A Beautiful soul that shines trough to her mezmerizing beautiful outside looks, And combined it' makes her appearance pleasant beyond words. Add to that her immense talent and the impact her music has had on countless people. She truly is a gift to this world.
lovely to hear from such a young fan. You've missed out on great artists like Kate but thanks to the likes of stranger things its brought them back. thanks for your comment, peace & love from the UK.
It is such an interesting question he asks about Kate navigating the "tough music business." She was very fortunate in that she was surrounded by authentic, loving family and friends who enfolded her. She has always had the creative space to be who she was, and to grow and mature into one of the most prolific and gifted artists of the last 40 some years. I so admire this woman!
Something that would be impossible nowadays - an interview with a refined, modest and genuinely talented individual who has something original to say, conducted by a polite, interested and professionally respectful interviewer who wants to listen. Sigh...
Yes Thomas, you just don't see it that much these daaaaays ... Back when I was a wee kipper bleh bleh bleh :D But it's true, some of the interviewers I have seen in action this last couple of years esp., rotten dishonesty with that inglorious whiff of the perfectly impolite. Shameless idiocy to boot! Speak of the devil ...
I was born in 2000, but yes, I see interviews from before the 90's and perhaps because the world wasn't as fast as it is now because of social media, people would take the time and really pay attention. Now there is a lot of content, a lot of information, a lot of excessive art being viewed and there is no room for introspection with pauses! I listen to the interviews from before, without background music, without needing to switch to the next thing right away, and I feel calm.
Been looking at several of Kate's interviews the last few weeks. This one stands out as the best for one detail that should matter to her and anyone who appreciates her music - care of her voice. The interviewer asked about her vocal cords and how she's taking care not to hurt them around 1:10. Kate mentions her vocal coach who keeps an eye on her voice. This is the only mention anywhere that one more person has her back. I really appreciate this. Interviewer kept details to the things that matter the most - kudoes to him.
Barely 20 years old yet incredibly clear minded, articulate and confident…not a single instance of falling over her words. Remarkable focus. Very strong willed. Joni Mitchell has similar personality traits and both women are among the small minority of female artists who have remained robustly independent of the commercial music industry and have succeeded on their own terms. Kudos to both.
I love both of them but no one can be compared to our Joni. She is a genius and plays instruments which Kate does not. Blue is probably the one of the best albums ever produced.
@@davidlondon2810 You bet! She has found guitar chords no one else found and her writing is so intellectual. Kate Bush comes know were near! She has talent of course!
@@anniegibson7734 there is also a profound aspect to Joni’s lyrics - plus, of course, her ability to weave similes, metaphors and alliteration into them - that is astonishing. I would also strongly recommend the music video of Kate’s song Moments Of Pleasure - which is a remembrance of close friends and colleagues who have died - as a beautiful and profound piece of work (box of tissues also recommended).
@@davidlondon2810 I will look out that album of Kate's. Thank you. I think as a Canadian I am very proud that many wonderful musicians hailed from Canada. Just take Leonard Cohen for example. No one,but no one could be compared to him. In a class of his own just like Joni!
This is the cutest interview i've ever heard. Especially because of a cute and beautiful Kate. I was 3 years then. Great songwriter and singer. Greetings from Slovenia
Kate is here like a rosebud, so sincere and so amiable...She is one of the true , artist from the UK... Many greetings to you Symphonyofflowers and thank you for posting our dear Kate, Mica
KB is my absolute number 1. Was lucky enough to grow up listening to her. What an artist. Because of her I can now appreciate people like Tori Amos, Sarah McLachlan, Loreena McKennitt and so many others....and more recently a true true new legend called Aurora. Thanks Kate! :-)
listening to how she answered that last question sent shivers around my skin....look at how far she's gotten, and with the answer she made, she profoundly deserves the places she was put onto & where she is in now
Intelligent, grounded, connected to Life, and talent that flows freely and abundantly. What more can any Artist want. Kate Bush is inspiring beyond words. Grateful we are Blessed with her.
Incredibly unique talent and beauty. So young here. Shy, velvety and sweet yet with a grounded confidence, focus and intelligence, underneath. She believed in herself as an artist and you need that to survive the music business.
after listening to two of her albums in full(hounds of love has become one of my favorite albums of all time), i have never heard her speaking voice. This is not what i expected, but i am not disappointed. Hearing her voice makes me like her even more cause i find it funny that a literal genius like herself has such a casual voice like this, it is comforting actually
Even her speaking voice is perfect: sweet, gentle, melodious; the sort of voice a man would love to hear every day for the rest of his life.... The lady simply has it all: vast talent, adorable looks & personality. A true gift to the world.
Oi you're voice is a sleg! I loved that line her vocal coach keeping an eye on her voice & that it's put about. What a Legend of a Lady & stunningly beautiful.
She’s so totally relaxed, that was a joy. I’ve never seen anyone but morons interview Kate , we are so lucky to have a lady that just wants to make music.
I love her talking voice

KB is my absolute number 1. Was lucky enough to grow up listening to her. What an artist. Because of her I can now appreciate people like Tori Amos, Sarah McLachlan, Loreena McKennitt and so many others....and more recently a true true new legend called Aurora. Thanks Kate! :-)
Same ..i grew up scratching my mum's ears trying to reach her high pitch voice in singing Wuthering Heights in 1978🤣🤣🤣
“Wow”! How beautiful in the way she thinks and how beautiful she looks, “unbelievable”! She’s extraordinary!
She's so gentle and powerful .
She is such a sweetheart, and so articulate. So much peace in her heart.
Her voice is so pleasant. She could talk about quantum physics and I could listen to her for hours.
listening to how she answered that last question sent shivers around my skin....look at how far she's gotten, and with the answer she made, she profoundly deserves the places she was put onto & where she is in now
Beautiful Enigmatic Being
Some of the most amazing deep music work ever made.
10/10
Gotta be one of the best interviewers I've ever seen, doesn't interrupt or argue with her...
Beautiful lady. So elegant and talented 🙌
Such a lovely woman. Such little ego. Very humble. Such rare qualities in a artist
Beautiful beyond words, such an angelic taking voice, it is heavenly
Intelligent, grounded, connected to Life, and talent that flows freely and abundantly. What more can any Artist want. Kate Bush is inspiring beyond words. Grateful we are Blessed with her.
I could listen to kate talk all day, stunning and talented.
Incredibly unique talent and beauty. So young here. Shy, velvety and sweet yet with a grounded confidence, focus and intelligence, underneath. She believed in herself as an artist and you need that to survive the music business.
after listening to two of her albums in full(hounds of love has become one of my favorite albums of all time), i have never heard her speaking voice. This is not what i expected, but i am not disappointed. Hearing her voice makes me like her even more cause i find it funny that a literal genius like herself has such a casual voice like this, it is comforting actually
Young Kate Bush is very beautiful and adorable
her voice is so sweet, cute and childlike, it's nice to hear
I'm about the same age as Kate Bush, and I was back then too. At the time she was the most beautiful woman I'd ever seen.
Even her speaking voice is perfect: sweet, gentle, melodious; the sort of voice a man would love to hear every day for the rest of his life....
The lady simply has it all: vast talent, adorable looks & personality. A true gift to the world.
All the reasons why I love her so much. She fascinates me 😍
I think it's all about the looks.
@Honesty First Uh oh...
she saved my life. forever grateful for her and her music
Kate Bush in this era is hands down the most attractive woman I've ever seen. Equally beautiful and a great writer/singer.
Indeed.
Was Ethereal; rosiest of all 'English Roses'
For real until recently I had no idea Kate Bush was British. So hearing her natural voice is a real treat, just like her music. 😊
If you listen to her singing voice carefully it's discernibly English unlike many singers from UK
Intelligent, modest, honest, adorable, creative genius. And Drop Dead Gorgeous
I often used some of these adjectives for Kate :)
Oi you're voice is a sleg! I loved that line her vocal coach keeping an eye on her voice & that it's put about. What a Legend of a Lady & stunningly beautiful.
What a fine interview, a real goldmine and a great historical artefact. What an astonishing artist. She wasn't yet twenty, extraordinary.
She seems like such a sweetheart.
She is nineteen years old here.....unbelievable.
That would only make her 62 now. Other comments say she's early 70s.
@@jackbrown4120 She was born 30th July 1958, so will be 64 at the end of this month
@@jackbrown4120 Not early 70s. I'm 67 and she's 3 years younger than me.
Ohhhh she's precious!
Incredible talent, mysterious, charming, grounded and low key, bright, beautiful in every way
fascinating woman she is. her voice, her looks and everything, so soothing, graceful and sweet.
Interviews were much better then than they are now.
1978 she was so young .🏴🤔
She is so beautiful. A lovely talking and singing voice.
Stunning inside and out! And so interesting to listen to!
She's hugely talented, intelligent, humble, genuine and an absolute stunner!
She’s so totally relaxed, that was a joy. I’ve never seen anyone but morons interview Kate , we are so lucky to have a lady that just wants to make music.
Morons but she was always respectful with them
Breathtakingly beautiful.
Wow as beautiful a talking voice as a singing voice.
I can´t believe the beauty of this woman, it´s hipnotic
Fascinating 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
Not only physically beautiful but also in grace and elegance.
Even her speaking voice is incredible, she just sounds so reassuring and calming
She is so lovely ...
