  • Hey, I'm back with a Stranger Things cover! One of my patreons suggested I cover "Running Up That Hill" by Kate Bush from the new season (and also... from the 80s, lol) and I quickly fell in love with the song. I had such a good time putting this one together with my own little twist and I am so excited to share it with you. I hope you enjoy! (If you somehow found me amidst the sea of covers of this song, WELCOME to the channel and I hope you stay awhile!)

    I was 13 years old, I loved this song, which I listened to on repeat.
    I'm almost 50 years old, and this song is everywhere again : a huge thank you to Stranger Things, this fabulous series, for loving the 80s, the best years of Humanity, and to bring generations together: I watched this series with my 15-year-old son. What a beautiful share !
