We don’t say things like this lol. Record labels are evil! We need to strive for all of them to be independent to protect their talents and well being! I’m glad they don’t get to exploit her no more! It’s time for her to truly shine!
Never ever heard a cover of this song that has matched Kate's passion. Finally, Raye has pulled it off. So glad. Everyone is light years behind her and what she is bringing out.
I literally don't listen to any of the reversions of that song because nobody does it better than Kate Bush but this woman did a freaking fabulous job!!! Awesome!
You never will either.. The original is the best.. All these parasites covering the song to try to gain more recognition.. They should be singing their own material.
for those who are *clearly* missing the point of an artist going on Live Lounge, let me spell it out for you - an artist does two songs, one their own, one a cover. Raye was trapped in a record contract in which they did not allow her to release the music she wanted. She was silenced and robbed years from her career. She is finally free and an independent artist, and she covered one of Kate's most beautiful and popular songs with her one of a kind voice. She RAN up that fucking hill and into freedom and artistic independence.
This feels genuine, filled with passion, honesty and vulnerability. Epic, epic performance by the keyboardist. The singing just made it that bit better.
I’m so glad she’s independent! Screw those awful labels who don’t have no humanity left in their practice! I am so glad to see her shining and the talent flooding media!
I'm an absolutely hardened listener of Kate's for the past 31 years and have never found anyone that comes remotely close with covers....until now. Even with the overplayed original from Stranger Thing's recently....and I'm a die hard fan...this version made me very emotional.
I totally agree with you 🇬🇧 She is certainly a talent to behold, she gives me shivers every time and there is much more to come, I can't wait. Go Raye, conquer the world, but stay as natural as you are.
This song is so identified with its brilliant originator, it took decades for it to be coverable. Raye owns it. She doesn’t sound like Kate Bush, but she sings like Kate Bush - crazy technical facility at the service of storytelling and emotional expression. This performance is thrilling to me. ❤️
Cant wait for RAYE to get her moment she deserves. I feel she has been in the music industry for quite some time. But still has yet to be credited as she should. She is very slept on a underrated and I cant wait for her to break out.
Beautiful. I just watched the Brit Awards 2024 and thought Wow, a really incredible vocalist & writer is breaking the music industry grip hold on who gets promoted etc.. I set about listening to her 21st Century Blues album, and various TH-cam concert video's & performances including this one. Absolutely Fantastic. xoxo
This is one of the best covers of this song I have ever heard! Raye is so so beautiful, and her passion shines through that insane singing! She's a vocalist. Love love love her!
It's been a looooong time since I've been pulled in by a performance. She has everything I love about artists- interesting voice texture and a mysterious presence.
OMG THIS IS SERIOUSLY SO OUT OF THIS WORLD THERES NO WORDS TO TRANSLATE THE FEELING OF THIS WOMANS VOICE AND ENERGY.❤THANK U I NEEDED TO EXPERIENCE THIS TASTE OF HEAVEN THIS MORNING..X GRATITUDE 🌈🙏♥️
I just love her. I discovered her through an interview and hearing her story, I couldn’t not find her music. Hearing her passion through her words was amazing but once I found her music I fell hard. Just a truly unique being and a beautiful soul and I’m fairly certain Kate Bush would tip a hat to this cover. Raye = A genuinely talented. Lush. Human being!
I honestly thought that Meg Mayer was the only person who covered this song the best but Raye has changed my mind and the fact that its sone live is even more impressive ❤
This version of “Running Up That Hill” got me so much more emotional, i truly love the way Raye sings it❤️🩹 But am i the only one who couldn’t think of anything but Phalestine? First time hearing this and i couldn’t help but imagine a phalestinian child trying to communicate with an IDF Soldier throughout the whole song, but mostly these verses: “It doesn't hurt me (The Phalestinian Child lies as they try staying brave with strong faith) Do you wanna feel how it feels? (The Child truly wants to know if the IDF Soldier has any idea how it feels) Do you wanna know, know that it doesn't hurt me? (The Child is convienced that the Soldier wants to be comforted to not feel guilty after killing plenty of innocent families)” “You don't wanna hurt me (The Phalestinian Child says, thinking the IDF soldiers are innoncent) But see how deep the bullet lies (The Child tries to explain to the Soldier that their bullet lie deep within them) Unaware I'm tearin' you asunder (The Child thinks its their fault) Oh, there is thunder in our hearts (The Child tries to explain the anger the Phalestinian people now carry) Is there so much hate for the ones we love? (The child is still trying to understand why theres war happening) Oh, tell me, we both matter, don't we (The Child asks if they both matter, confused on why they’re getting killed) This is exactly how the scenario in my head went, sadly i could imagine the IDF Soldier taking the Child’s life in the end anyway, just like how the soldiers took 14 thousand+ of the Phalestinian children lives💔💔
Her record label are really gonan regret not giving her a chance she be out here showing them what they are missing such a genuine talent
She's independent now, she left Polydor
We don’t say things like this lol. Record labels are evil! We need to strive for all of them to be independent to protect their talents and well being! I’m glad they don’t get to exploit her no more! It’s time for her to truly shine!
Too right!
It’s because she looks odd that’s why they didn’t give her a chance

Her voice skates through this song. It flutters, jumps, spins through the air gracefully.
beautifully worded!
Her voice glides.
@gregfoley6499 where to wish it would glide away
Perfectly put!!
She literally killed it. Perfect song choice!
R.I.P?
Yeah, she killed it. Murdered it. Horrible rendition.
@@gaminggod5310 ?
Yes she killed it alright utter talentless shite
I've never heard any singer being so in touch with emotions singing this song. Raye, you covered it in the most beautiful way. Congratulations 👏

@@defiantraven7915 +1 with bells on.
This is horrible. This is one song that nobody will sing better than Kate.

HER VOCAL CONTROL IS INSANE
Her voice, her hair, her jewelry, her clothes, her make up-This is a woman being her authentic self. so so gorgeous. LOVE it! 🔥🔥🔥
All shite talentless shite
I love this comment,, it's perfectly said.
I’m so glad she’s independent! Screw those awful labels who don’t have no humanity left in their practice! I am so glad to see her shining and the talent flooding media!
Don’t need a label with that talent
They were so dumb and also keeping this talent from the world, screw that.
Her voice suits the song so well!!
That actually blew my mind. Insane voice

Same.
she is literally singing pure music her soul she is breathing music

You called it !!!
WELL SHE MADE IT TODAY...RECORD OF THE YEAR AND 5 OTHER AWARDS
She certainly did that at The Brits a week.ago on HER terms🎉
I love how it is soooooo good and FULLY live. No pitch corrections or anything. I say this because I haven't heard RAYE in a live performance
You can see she's singing from her soul 💕
I'm a Kate Bush fan and I think she would love this version. So talented. Sung from deep within .
This is considered by many to be one of the hardest songs to sing and Raye is here, singing this as easy as she breathes.
It’s not that hard a song to sing. She does do a pretty outstanding job. But it’s not that hard
Beautiful. I just watched the Brit Awards 2024 and thought Wow, a really incredible vocalist & writer is breaking the music industry grip hold on who gets promoted etc.. I set about listening to her 21st Century Blues album, and various TH-cam concert video's & performances including this one. Absolutely Fantastic. xoxo
the best, most genuine cover of this song. packed with so much passion & heart
Brilliant performance. Made justice to a great song.
I have loved Kate Bush since I was 15 and Raye is worthy of this song . She sounds amazing .
Goosebumps. Everywhere! 😢
This is absolutely gorgeous. Ambitious song choice and AMAZING execution
The last part of this song was like a vocal hommage to Jeff Buckley...her "ooooo" was very Buckley-esque. Hauntingly beautiful.
Glad it's not just me - I've noticed in a few live performances I've been reminded of Jeff Buckley! Sign of an incredible vocalist imo.
Think this is my favourite cover ever of this song ❤
This is one of the best covers of this song I have ever heard! Raye is so so beautiful, and her passion shines through that insane singing! She's a vocalist. Love love love her!
for me this is the best cover, captures Kate's passion but with her own twist
Wow, she's so underrated and acknowledged as an extremely talented musician - talk about control, tone and emotion!
I can see a clip of this going absolutely viral on Twitter. This was incredible
It's been a looooong time since I've been pulled in by a performance. She has everything I love about artists- interesting voice texture and a mysterious presence.
There are no words in the English language that can describe how beautiful this cover/performance is.
I have chills when the violins comes
Her voice is wow, beautiful
Fuck me that was 🔥🔥🔥 Raye's vocals and the way all the musician's was composed is mega 👌 10/10
such an underrated performer
Not for much longer 💯
She took that Kate Bush song and made it her own...brilliant...musicians and vocals in harmony. It made me cry..superb
Raye is a blessing, a goddess, an angel.....
Raye can literally sing anything! What a voice!! 👏
Absolutely mesmerizing and beautiful! I didn't move for a moment when she was singing. Thank you Raye.
Even though I have listened to Raye for quite some time she never ceases to amaze me how talented this young lady really is..........
I cried listening to this. She has such a powerful voice and she will go very far ❤
She just covered one of my all time fave songs I LOVE THIS!!!!
A diamond studded voice spun into a story, epic in its might. This rendition is priceless. 💛
SHE'S SO GOOD. OMG.
I actually teared up. Just wow.
The only person to cover this song and do it justice....beautiful!
I listened to a cover by Elevator and theirs was pretty amazing as well!
@@Allindriss Oh, I'll have to listen to that! 😊
@@kellymyoung ye! The singer has an amazing voice and they really did justice to the song
Meg Myers was pretty good. This one though is very different- in a great way!
For me this just puts into perspective how good the original actually is.
OMG THIS IS SERIOUSLY SO OUT OF THIS WORLD THERES NO WORDS TO TRANSLATE THE FEELING OF THIS WOMANS VOICE AND ENERGY.❤THANK U I NEEDED TO EXPERIENCE THIS TASTE OF HEAVEN THIS MORNING..X GRATITUDE 🌈🙏♥️
Best version iv'e heard yet. Raye your vocals are amazingg ⭐ 2023 is your year!
I just love her. I discovered her through an interview and hearing her story, I couldn’t not find her music. Hearing her passion through her words was amazing but once I found her music I fell hard.
Just a truly unique being and a beautiful soul and I’m fairly certain Kate Bush would tip a hat to this cover.
Raye = A genuinely talented. Lush. Human being!
A breathe of fresh air, long reign queen Raye.
I honestly thought that Meg Mayer was the only person who covered this song the best but Raye has changed my mind and the fact that its sone live is even more impressive ❤
