Product Information

Sporting big hair, silver eyeshadow, feathered brows and a long white gown, Kate looks as divine as can be in the Wuthering Heights music video. The subtle glam along – with the long, wispy hair and poofy fringe – makes a statement, with Kate looking both stunningly elegant and playful.

We had lovely times,” says Haydn Bendall. “You walked through the garden into the kitchen: all the family’s business and conversations took place around this huge kitchen table. [Her brother] Paddy was always around, and the two dogs were there, Bonnie and Clyde, the hounds of love on the album’s cover. There were pigeons and doves all over the place, her dad smoking his pipe and her mum making sandwiches. It was idyllic.”

The title of “The Ninth Wave” was taken from a passage of Tennyson’s 1869 poem The Holy Grail, a reference that felt particularly resonant. Part pop record, part epic romantic poem, Hounds Of Love “has a mystical, bardic quality that’s part of our ancient British tradition,” says Youth, who lent his loping, leggy bass sound to “The Big Sky”. “It’s not overt, it’s hidden, and I love that.” No invites were extended to EMI execs during the sessions. Refining the methods used on The Dreaming, her working practices became even more isolated. Often she recorded for long periods with only Palmer and perhaps another engineer in the studio, calling in musicians to add live texture when required. It was a thoroughly modernist approach. “It gives the album a slightly futuristic atmosphere,” says Youth. “She gave me some direction, let me do what I liked, then she chopped it up and arranged it in the Fairlight. It doesn’t have that natural dynamic arrangement and progression that you have with musicians playing together – it’s quite flat and modern. People work like that today all the time, but then it was quite unusual. It was about selection rather than musicianship, the currency of ideas reflected in the music rather than academic virtuosity.”

The Most Wuthering Heights Day Ever - which honours the song and the singer - started in 2013 with Shambush! in Brighton, which attempted to set a world record for the highest number of people dressed as Kate Bush in one place. She is able to put the emotion and the expression of what she's saying in her lyrics into her dancing as well. So it's a double kind of a bonus with Kate Bush," McNally said. Unlike many classic albums, though, Hounds Of Love is much more than a historical document. At a time when everyone seems desperate to show their hand, the innate sense of mystery feels more powerful and relevant than ever. A fiver says Joanna Newsom has studied the way in which it leads the listener into a mythical, self-contained world, while the mixture of its flat, futuristic samples, pagan symbolism and ancient, pounding rhythm echoes through the work of Fever Ray, Natasha Khan and Florence Welch. Indeed Bush has had an influence on almost every notable female artist of the past three decades, each indebted to her insistence on maintaining control, her boundless imagination, her determination to transcend accepted notions of femininity in both song and appearance.To promote Hounds Of Love she lip-synched on Wogan to “Running Up That Hill” and later made her first Top Of The Pops appearance since 1978. After that she seemed to be everywhere: undertaking countless press interviews and television appearances, showing willing at the BPI awards and charity events. She also created four elaborate, eclectic videos, two of which she directed herself.
