Kate Bush - Cloudbusting

[mjaxdes]

great song. great era.. This kind of music along with Cocteau Twins, put a short but important end to just making some stupid rock song.

[montbrehain]

Does anybody know which hill that was ? was it in Wiltshire ?????

[Symphonyofflowers]

@montbrehain Well, I don't know the name of the hill but the video was filmed at Vale of the White Horse in Oxfordshire.

[montbrehain]

@Symphonyofflowers , thanks for that , allways thought it was in that sort of area. Its a sort of old hill fort by the look of it ? looks like a good view too.... wonder if anyone knows for sure where it was/is ?

[coracleman]

grimbattation - yes, utterly sad - shows how paranoid it was back then I suppose.

coraclewoman.

[grimbattalion]

DIED_The day he was to be released from prison & supposedly his partner, I can't recall his name, committed suicide.

[grimbattalion]

Read this book today....Visiting Oganon in Rangley Maine soon.

[curtis8516]

When music videos had meaning and style.

[Commiton]

Remember Wilhelm Reich. One of the Father's of Free Love.

[KarmaChoirboy]

God this song kept me alive for about a year. It was so interesting that I was reading Reich at the time (SEXUAL REVOLUTION) and listening to Kate. Only later did I find out the connection. Some synchronicity was active in my life, to be sure.

[haarp35117]

Ooo-ohh, just saying it could even make it happen.

[gadreel23]

I met Dr. Peter Reich back in 1994 after attending a lecture he was giving in regards to his father, Dr. Wilhelm Reich. Peter was extremely intelligent, very well-spoken... He covered some thing during the lecture that were not covered in the book he wrote about his father, "A Book of Dreams". My one fanboy moment was to have him autograph my copy of "The Whole Story" next to the cloudbuster inside the insert. XD

[colnag2o]

"I'm cloudbusting daddy......"

Ohh Kate!

[gazboy190270]

Best song in the world ever!

[yb3000]

Beautiful amazing fantastic !!!!

[bbennett1]

not quite like a real cloudbusting machine I've seen in Rangeley

[molonlave2010]

I didn't know Utah Saints took a sample of this song for Something Good.

[nissanlover]

[LukeQuietus]

How tall is Donald Southerland? He looks about 9 foot tall there.

[Symphonyofflowers]

@LukeQuietus Donald Sutherland is 193 centimeters tall while Kate is 160 centimters tall.

[mrsjax]

@Symphonyofflowers Thanks for posting. I love Kate. You still have to pay full price for her best of CD - she still rocks!!

[alittlelot]

@LukeQuietus

She is supposed to be a young child in this video.

[godspearl76]

I love this song so much.

[MrsRhythmNation]

[ratfink74]

I recomend the book by Peter Reich this is such a beautiful an tragic story.The wonders and mysteries of the universe are often ignored by the masses truily great and inovative minds are sacarficed on the alter of mediocrity.Long Live The Army of Dreamers.

[bodunchar]

@ratfink74 nice comment

[pigskin100]

The location looks like White Horse Hill at Uffington, Wiltshire - the one with the ancient chalk white horse on the side.

[rikacy]

the best record en clip she ever made

i love her!!!!

[MrFredo007]

I love this video for years>great story with great actors-kate & donald;no one else could play this so "authentic"!Thank you for posting!

[Symphonyofflowers]

You're welcome!

[gypsy43]

A cloudbuster (or cloud buster) is a device developed by Austrian psychoanalyst Wilhelm Reich with the purpose of draining clouds of "orgone energy". Cloudbuster would act as a rain-maker

[wolf2jon]

"You're like my yo-yo

That glowed in the dark

What made it special

Made it dangerous

So I bury it, and forget" ... fantastic ;-j

[wolf2jon]

The best version of this song on youtube, thank you symphonyofflowers again ;-j

[Symphonyofflowers]

You're welcome.

[deltic1964]

my dad brought Donald Sutherlands boat when we used to live in Parkstone and ive loved kate Bush all my life but seeing these two in a video Wicked Simply a Class Act Love kate and think Dnald is a Great Actor Thanks for Posting

[BrutusJones]

I've always been deeply moved by this song. And seeing this video ... I' m amazed.. Very classy. The great Donald Sutherland. Really too bad there have not been a lot more views.

[TheAlexander113]

I just know that something good is going to happen

[ss1bomber]

Where in the south downs is this filmed? looks like around Lewes in East Sussex area .

[Symphonyofflowers]

It was filmed at Vale of the White Horse in Oxfordshire.

[ss1bomber]

thanks for the info, Sussex is no where near then!

[arosegrowingold]

My favourite place in S. England - and my favourite music video of all time.

Her performance at 5:35 is sublime - and the ending is so beautiful...

[jura233]

Kate and her great song, nice memories for me

[Fenriswulfen]

[astrodog23]

Wow... so nice to see this posted and sounding pretty decent on the HQ version.... Kate Bush and Wilhelm Reich... SO awesome.

[Symphonyofflowers]

You're welcome.

[intrepidvs]

questa canzone e` un` icona musicale degli anni ottanta in italia

davvero bella

grazie

[roachy333]

Reich's ideas if accepted...probably would've meant the end of traditional science and faith as we know it...thats why they had to destroy him...imho.

OTO's Kenneth Grant has even said as much.

[coracleman]

yes, the US broke Reich and he died in prison. For being ahead of his time. Love this vid!

[grimbattalion]

@coracleman The day he was to be released from prison & supposedly his partner, I can't recall his name, committed suicide. sorry to reserect you from 2 years ago. Just thought if any one reads you comment should know.

[roachy333]

Its about Wilhelm Reich...and his orgone discoveries...oh and how the US authorities destroyed the man and his work...even though they said his work was nonsense...you work it out?

"Your 'suns' coming out...Your 'sons' coming out." Kate's genius lyrics.

apparently...Reich used to dress his own son up as a girl to fool the authorities.

That aside...this is a fantastic tune...the string arrangement is stunning...great work Kate.
