Despite loving the music of many female artistes, Kate Bush has always irritated me. Something about her voice no doubt.

Currently No.3 in the USA on the Billboard 100 - not too shabby

Never mind Kate Bush look what ' Stranger Things ' has done for this classic slice of metal!

I've always thought she is a genuine British musical/artistic genius.
And they don't come along too often
Someone had to post it!
Kate Bush night on BBC2 tonight. Nothing new but three very good programmes worth watching if you're interested in Kate Bush or the era she helped define.

Just seen that performance on TOTP 1978 when we all went 'is that a complete looney or complete f***ing musical genius ?'
I think we all now now, although I may not have been convinced at the time

And of course 30th July each year is designated [The Most] Wuthering Heights Day [Ever] at various locations across the world, where women and some quite hairy men put their red dresses on and frolic around fields in textbook Ms Bush style.
This one from Sydney earlier on today (for an extra bonus, they've located a nearby Hill to go Running Up this year

There are versions of it all over the place
I won't lie: if there was a Brighton version, I'd be right in there

Don’t know if this is true, but I was once told that you won’t hear a cymbal in any of her music - Apparently she hates the sound of them

Kate Bush, Annie Lennox, Dolares o'riordan, Sinead O’Connor are the female goats of British/Irish women music imo a league apart.

Those ladies need a dance off against the jumping dutch fans at the euros.
Pfui. You have merely named the four international female names so I guess they are a league apart by definition. Three of whom who have not been relevant for decades, and one who I had to look up.
Clearly Bush has been the most impactful of the four (the other three are one hit wonders x 2 and a none hit wonder), but there again, not as impactful as Cliff Richard. Therefore not as 'good'?
Frankly, if you like an artist, great. There is no need to rank them.
Are you saying Annie Lennox is a one hit wonder?
Diva sold 7m copies worldwide
Medusa sold 1.9m copies in the US alone
Kate Bush has sold 25m albums and 15m singles - and that excludes downloads which must be a staggering number.
