Who does it? Kate the genius does it. The Man With The Child In His Eyes was mostly written when she was 13 years old and finished off when she was 15. It was one of three songs (Saxophone Song being another) that David Gilmour paid for her to have professionally recorded and produced in 1975 to serve as a demo tape when she was 16. After hearing the tape EMI signed her up when she was still 16 and gave her time to develop her skills. It was those demo recordings that appeared on the album. So people watching the music video for ‘The Man…’ are seeing an 18/19 year old Kate but hearing a 16 year old.
Wow! She was already going IN at that age! That’s crazy she took those older songs, and didn’t try re-recording. It sounded great. I guess if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it
@@BryPazReacts When the record company gave her an advance after signing her at 16, she ran straight out and enrolled in dance and mime classes. She studied with Lindsay Kemp who taught mime to David Bowie. She uses it a lot in her videos and live performances. Her first concert tour was like going to the circus or a Broadway show. All her own ideas.
@@juliehaley2765 Paid for the recording session. Along with "Saxophone Song" and "Maybe" which was later re named "Humming" and released on her "Other Sides" disc 2
. Kate said the song was about seeing the childlike spirit or nature that some men have, long into adulthood. The eyes are said to be the window to your soul.
Great reaction once again, it charted at number 6 in the UK and number 3 in Ireland. The song received the Ivor Novello award for "Outstanding British Lyric" in 1979 - the ivor novello awards are awards for songwriting and composing, presented annually since 1956. In 2002 Kate received another Ivor Novello award for "Outstanding Contribution to British Music", then in 2020 Kate was made a fellow of the Ivors Academy itself joining a very select list (only 20 have ever been awarded with a fellowship to date) who have been recognised for their excellence in music creation. So you noticed the unexpected key change then 😀 that and changes in timing is something that Kate does, Kate composes music in a way that doesn't conform to standard conventions, her aim is to write something that sounds good, she's a completely natural talent. As "The Man With The Child In His Eyes" was Kate's second widespread single release, it makes sense to react to Kate's debut single "Wuthering Heights" next, I would certainly be interested to see what you will make of it. NOTE: There were other single releases from Kate's excellent debut album "Thr Kick Inside" but they were limited to certain territories only, so "Moving" and "Them Heavy People" released in Japan only and "Strange Phenomena" in Brazil only.
Wow she's had quite the accomplishments! Those Key changes are something else! Not an easy thing to just come up with! I hear a lot about "Wuthering Heights", I'll be posting a video about that one soon!
Wow. Yes, you said Wow a lot, so does Kate. Wow is another of her songs that you have to do, from 1979. This was her 2nd hit, coming after Wuthering Heights. Bry, I was 15 when she burst on the scene, yes, all those feelings you had about her face... and that body... I was 15, I didn't stand a chance, fell completely in love and lust... Bry, I'm as gay as they come but I understand completely why every straight man's tongue falls out watching Kate Bush... More seriously, I was 15 and confused (and this was in working-class small-town Scotland in the 1970s... believe me, Kate Bush saved my life and got me through the hardest times, I had a 'portable' cassette player the size of a small suitcase, I would invest in a fistful of batteries and take myself off into the countryside with just Kate's first two albums, one each side of a C90 cassette... oh those songs...) And she was only that age, same age I was then, 15, when she recorded this song, she was only 15! How on earth she had the maturity in her to voice that complete and utter beauty of a song I'll never know.
Wow indeed! It’s beautiful music! Wow, i bet that cassette player was heavy too. All those old electronics were large and heavy. Ah… the countryside… how lovely. Wow though she was 15!
Kate wrote this when she was between the ages of 13 and 15 years old, a remarkable piece. I suggest that you react to, 'The Sensual World', and 'This Women's Work'.
A song about wow? What's it called? Thanks for watching! Glad you enjoy my reviews and guitar noodling! I got more videos coming up in the future, stay tuned!
Wow, is the catchiest song, she is so fascinating. I’d love to see what he thinks of This Woman’s Work because I bet he is already familiar with that song,also The Sensual World is by far my favorite song by her.
Cool! I was in love with her music since I heard "Hiru no Tsuki" song in Outlaw Star back in 2001. Glad to see other fans of her! Thanks for tuning in!
I got home last night from band rehearsal high as a kite, and i found this. I really enjoyed your humor and musician take. I really laughed when you made fun of dance in the Running up that hill video, even though i was a dancer in my youth. Also, i love you hair, lol. You're cute. There's so much good Kate stuff. I would suggest you check out the classic Wuthering Heights video (very interesting song writting) and The Sensual World. Also Rockets tail might blow you away. Also maybe the whole Side 2 of the Hounds of Love album, called The Ninth Wave. Im a huge Kate Bush fan. Im 53. She's my everything. This video is my favorite. So simple, and she looks so lovely. AND the subtle sensuality of her moves in the chorus. I always cry when i listen to this song. It overwhelms me. My bands channel here is Alegria Rampante, in case your curious...or bored 😆
Her fan club put together a video for "Aerial" that really cooks, incorporating all of Kate's looks thru the years. It's here on YT and it's a lot of fun, lots of great guitar.
As was mentioned by others, she wrote this song at 13 years old, recorded it at the age of 16, and made the video at around 19. So you are hearing 16 year old Kate Bush.
I think you'd enjoy "The Sensual World" music video. She looks absolutely stunning in it, and it's a great song too. Link: th-cam.com/video/h1DDndY0FLI/w-d-xo.html
Just subscribed! Her genius was all there on her debut album, and deepened throughout her career. Her Before The Dawn concerts of 2014 were mind-bogglingly brilliant - best gig I've seen in forty years of concert-going.
Subscribed with Kate Bush. Don’t mind the pauses. 😜. Have you done STEELY DAN yet? “Kid Charlemagne” or “Black Cow” and then “Aja”. Probably good for your channel too and super smooth. Thanks 😉
For a "baby in a womb" scene, just react to the OMV of "Breathing" (1980), an anti-war-song during the cold war... it tell's the story of a fetus that is scared to be born into a world of a destroyed environment and/or nuclear fallout, where it fears, it has nothing to breathe anymore...
I don't know if you want to do a react video to a long song by her, but her longest song ever could be interesting. It's called "misty" it is about a woman in a romantic night with a snowman 😂❤
Hi, nice reaction Bry. Who does that? Kate Bush it seems. Anyway, I try to play classical guitar - but I'm very, very poor at it even after 30 years of trying. It seems I'm more numerical than musical and who has numerical people covered? Kate Bush of course. She wrote a song where she sings the first 100+ digits of the number Pi (3.159...). Quote taken from the katebushencyclopedia "I really like the challenge of singing numbers, as opposed to words because numbers are so unemotional as a lyric to sing and it was really fascinating singing that. Trying to sort of, put an emotional element into singing about...a seven...you know and you really care about that nine. " Well I really like Pi from her 2005 album Aerial perhaps sometime you could try reacting to that one. In a couple of days it's Kate Bush's birthday (30th July) so line yourself up with another KB track to react to. Perhaps do "Saxophone Song", it was made in the same session along with "Man With The Child in His Eyes" when she was 16.
Classical guitar is no joke! Guitar is like a puzzle game, to me at least. Singing the numbers of Pi??? That's insane! Adding to my list! And wow her birthday is soon! Interesting....
@@BryPazReacts If you want to be truly puzzled by a simple solo piece of guitar music try watching "Tarrega Gran Jota - Lilit Mardiyan" on youtube. I promise you you will be puzzled as to how it is possible even though you can see it being done with your own eyes. So many different sounds and techniques, and wtf at about the 8:00 mark.

Is a key change something that a non musician would hear? St Vincent said that her songs have these key changes, like it was a big deal, never understood it.
A key change in music is like.... Imagine Bob Ross using an easel to paint a picture. His easel has specific colors, Blue, Green, Gray, Brown... nice, gentle colors...

I mean, a key change should not be controversial. It is today! Perhaps it's better not to think too hard on that. Certainly she was a more instinctive creative than that.
"That smile, like she knows something"! Yep, Bry Paz, I think you might be right! You haven't discussed the meaning of the song. Kate wrote the song at the tender age of 13. Most people assume that it is about some real or imaginary man that Kate had a relationship with. This would be a literal interpretation. I have a more metaphorical interpretation in mind. There is no real or imaginary man. The "man" is Kate's own masculinity, already dissociated, so that Kate thinks of it as being someone else, a "man" who is always there at night when Kate closes her eyes to go to sleep. The video clip is a very soft focus celebration of a young woman's body, so a celebration of femininity, in a way (though perhaps not one that feminists would appreciate). The video was made after Kate disappeared for a couple of years, after first signing up to EMI and before releasing any video footage. Do you see where I'm going with this, Bry Paz? For whatever reason, Kate has always been an LGBTQ+ icon, and an outspoken advocate for trans people, once commenting in an online argument with JK Rowling that some men can menstruate, so menstruation cannot be used to define a true "woman"! Anyway, you might like to (or not like to!) consider how much of Kate's beauty that you commented on could be due to, or at least enhanced, by soft focus, hairstyle, makeup and general body proportions.
Look, enough. I can't not comment on this, though I would prefer not to. I'll limit myself to saying Kate Bush did not make those comments in any 'online argument' with JK Rowling, and anyone suggesting she did is only showing their ignorance of both great women. I'm sure they are good friends. Kate Bush does NOT engage in online arguments with anyone, it's part of her mystique. Sadly, she's not the kind who would break her silence to defend herself against groundless accusations.
you need to brush up your guitar tuning. there are apps that can help with that. but yeah, kate is hard. and smooth. check out "wow" and "breathing" next.
You are doing a great job, trying to follow her musical thinking. Give up. Just enjoy. Kate is of a different musical planet. Not better or worse, just very different. Get used to key changes coming and going like cumulus clouds rolling by during a hot summer windstill day. Ha ha that is Kate at her best. Oh yes there are a couple of Bush songs about this matter with clouds. Listen to The Big Sky or Cloudbusting but certainly Hello Earth. I'm warning you. No standard songstructure there.
You go to e minor cause the song starts out as melancholy feeling. You are over analyzing the song. Don’t be so traditional. Their are on no rules in a Kate Bush song. Plus her songs are performance base a lot emotion just very human approach to music.
Kate is so beautiful, a true English rose.
That's true!
