How does one write this? Kate Bush is simply magnificent.
How come this video doesn't have 100 million views and likes?
MAKES YOU CRY WHEN YOUR REALIZE THE SONG IS ABOUT HER DYING IN THE DELIVERY ROOM
Sir Elton John once described Kate as the female Freddie Mercury. That is HIGH praise indeed.
There's something out of this World about this woman.
today I learned something new. I didn't know this song was a Kate Bush song. I only hear Maxwell cover of the song.
al green clinched the award for best vocals when he sung belle live in tokyo vs the singers blondie and kate bush. when a man can beat out a woman for best vocals of this caliber its special. can you hear where cindy lauper got her voice from?
Lets all remember Kate originally wrote and sang this song. Maxwell is awesome but Kate deserves all the credit.
You can always tell a great artists when live sounds better than the recorded version.
The first time I saw this, I cried. She's written such a beautiful song.
Kate Bush is ORIGINAL, incomparable there is simply no one like her! I love how she has inspired many artists from so many varying genres throughout her career. I love Maxwell's version of this song, but she brings that "something extra" to the table IMO.
Just one of a long list of completely underrated artists.
perhaps the best song ever written
kate Bush makes this song sound so good and so sad.her voice is an angels voice.
Reduces me to a puddle of tears. Every.damn.time.
damn! she wrote and sang a great song... and Maxwell did it justice too. She was awesome! Maxwell...Kate....Maxwell... hell yo Kaxewell! They both did so perfect!
most remakes just destroy a song but Maxwell really captured her soul and brought it back nicely.
Holy shit - the range and power of her voice as well as the lyrical content #Amazeballs
This song continues to save my life.
This song is my all time fav, it is a classic.
No one else should ever attempt to sing this song ever again.
Both Kate & Maxwell have done this song great justice.
Two beautiful voices with so much passion & emotions singing the same song.
Blessed Love.
Absolutely gorgeous. Kate is a rare genius and I love her..
this song takes me some other place....
WOW! And I thought Maxwell's version couldn't possibly be topped, but this original version is breathtaking.
This will forever be my favorite song. So much work has been put in this song where it will never be like any other and people rarely can sing it cuz its a hard song to sing. I can feel it its amazing and Maxwell topped it off even though this song was already topped off lol but I really love his version too its heartfelt. All I have to say is WOW and that's not even enough..
I know! Just heard this song for the first time. I can't decide who's better because they both do it so well! So much talent and emotion from both singers that I think it's a tie here!!!! But Kate would prob win simply because she wrote it!! Amazing!!!!!!!
I absolutely love this song, Maxwell made a wonderful rendition. But, nothing can take the place of Kate's original, because it is from her heart of a women. I listen to this song so often. My sister passed away February, 2014 and this song represents her work, her heart and the love and honor that I will always have for her. Thank U Kate!!
My God I love this woman with the ability to paint dreams and raise spirits
i could be wrong but right at the climax of this piece she says ''all the things that she wanted from me, all the things that she needed from me'' and whilst listening to this song i figured it was from a female perspective speaking about her lover dying but at that moment i realized all that emotion is oozing from a male characters perspective and i felt a surge of emotion overcome me. Sometimes we forget the kind of emotion men feel as they keep it bottled up but this song was an eye opener for me about the desperate love men have for their partners just the same as women do. That is something else, its amazing how Kate Bush portrayed this.
Shalia Momin Kate is the Goddes of portraying an endless scheme of perspectives through her lyrics and deliverance in contemporary music!
... I don't want to get into idealistic movements at one of her videos, but I think she is surpasses so many of those with her intelligence and heart like no other!
Tear up everytime I hear this song. Kate is the only singer that does that to me.
Greetings from the UK!
When listening to the winsome and seraphic Kate Bush, I am transported back to the insouciant nature of my childhood, where the days lasted forever and the possibilities seemed interminable.
That was then.
Now, as a man in his early thirties, possibilities seem anything but, thanks to the abiding spectre of my bipolar disorder....
....But, when my ears are soothed by Kate Bush, my mind is healed....
.
her voice is amazing omg
It's always amazingly humbling to experience the origin of such a beautiful song. I'm a Maxwell fan and I was totally unaware of Kate Bush even though I always sensed something odd but absolutely brilliant of Maxwell performing such a song...
This is rare, an angelic song that you can feel. We are dead inside if you can't feel anything from it.
I have grown up learning the wonders of a woman's mind by the work of Bush, to watch her grow to witness how the changing of time effects the woman is an insight I will always be grateful for. For all the things we should have done but we never did... just make it go away
I've heard one or two versions of this song but there is just nothing like this. Aah Kate, you are such a treasure.
SoleByThePound Yes. People seem to keep missing the fact that he gives RESPECT and Props to Kate in that Unplugged version, he even refers to her as 'Da Bomb, Truly" ( which is a COMPLIMENT,for those who don't know what that means) he never tried to take Credit for the song he gave her the Credit,for goodness sake!
Feckin musical genius! and love that really cool outfit. She is one of a kind and this just made me realise how many people auto tune their voices these days.
Maxwell taught me the words in the words in the 90s, he awesome shouted her out in the song. Beautiful original song. Wow
She is the OG no matter what you think and i love her
This is AMAZING. I wish such artists EXISTed today on the music scene. Actually, they do, but only underground do you hear and see such great talent nowadays...
So full of emotion! Lovely!
I love her voice.
i love this...maxwell brought me here and i always thought his version i the original but now i knw...they both have great vocals in this song and thats what makes ita beautiful song.. the original is always the best!!!
This song is absolutely beautiful. I love it Kate. :) xx
this song is a tearjerker. how is the presenter not reduced to a puddle of tears?
Kate so talented and a beautiful woman. Awed.
Damn!!! Only just found out she sang the original! Absolute class. Cant believe i didnt realise! Best versions are the originals!!
Maxwell brought me here...after all of this time i thought Maxwell originally sung this but now i know lol...i love this song and it gives me the chills also...it was great hearing the original and for the first time im blown away of how this song is really touching by the way the vocals are because they are flawless thanks to Kate Bush..that was really a beautiful performance!
This song is rocking my soul to anothet planet. Im lost in this moment
I prefer Maxwell's version but her voice is beautiful, thank you for writing such a beautiful song.
I do too but this is another type of beauty that is equally amazing. What's wonderful about Maxwell is that he ALWAYS plays tribute to Kate Bush and rightfully so, but you can tell he really cherishes her as an artist. I wonder if she ever was quoted giving her response to his cover?
i dont.. like kates version more.. which i herd first.. she sings it better.. maxwells version is good too.. but kates is special.
Omg she is so inspiring, mesmorising, and BEAUTIFUL!!!!!!
THIS IS A CLASSIC MOVIE FOR MY GENERATION. THIS SONG (MADE THIS SCEAN) SO ICONIC. 🎶" She's having a baby." 1988 🎶
Fabulous !!
you hear a lot of covers,and you give them very positive comments, then you listen to the original, and its like some next level :)
25 yrs ago, oh shit ..
No other female singer comes close to this! they really don't..
What a talent, totally f**king brilliant.
Thank you for writing this song, it is my all time favorite song, you and Maxwell have done this song justice!
This is the original to Maxwell's. Very emotional and beautiful song. WOW!!!!
The Sensual World turns 25 years old today. This beautiful, emotional, ever endearing song of This Woman's Work, I have always felt was the backbone, the highlight, of that wonderful album. Happy Birthday Sensual World, and thank you KaTe Bush for all the gorgeous, original, meaningful work that you do, all This Woman's Work.
Angelic voice 😍👌
Kate Bush uma benção de Deus!!! Isso sim podemos chamar de dom de talento de música!
It's really hard to think of anything that compares to how special this is...
I Luv U Kate Bush and this song!!
"She's having a baby" with Kevin Bacon and Elizabeth McGovern
Wow I thought Maxwell killed it.. Kate Bush set the tone!!
I grew up on the maxwell track but this is the only version I listen to...
Simply Mesmerizing and Brilliant from Kate Bush.Thank you 😊
this song got me through my contractions 💕
Beautiful and nothing else to say
Stunning performance....
LOVE this song because of the movie "She's Having a Baby" (Kevin Bacon). Awesome movie and amazing song!!! And Maxwell remade it perfectly. :)
Her bottom lip is everything....
she sounds beautiful and Maxwell killed it too beautiful song !!!!
There is just 1 best version of this song,and its the version of Kate Bush.
omg so amazing!!! no words for....
lovely voice
This has always been one of my favorite songs, although ironically I've never felt this way about anyone.
What's funny is then they could sing live and they sounded the same way they did on the record. Nowadays when an artist sings live they sound like crap and nothing like their auto tune self on their record. Shame to see music go from this to what we have nowadays.
She's a fri**ing genious, amazing voice & songwriting ability
I love this song...
Kate Bush you are awesome 👏🏽
kate performed on wogans show quite few times, great stuff, rest in peace terry x
wow just found out she sang the original, and I've been a fan of hers forever!
listen too all her stuff shes as good a you get very very talented lady
ya i was listening to her since the 80's know most of her hits, i just didn't remember listening to this one. I thought Maxwell wrote it.
me too I hate that and I understand her spirit in the song too. I alwys felt like why the heck is Maxwell singing this song
dayaaron87 Maxwell acknowledged Kate Bush as he said in MTV Unplugged quoted: "She is a Bomb (Kate)"
