I only heard this version, but when I found out this was a cover, I checked out the original too. I like both, but of course I've been a Placebo fan for a while, and his voice is just amazing. This version is a bit more darker, and has a electro feel. Sorry fans of Bush.
I really like Placebo but this version is depressing as hell. I'm not a big fan of Kate Bush but her version is so much better like most originals are.
I think you should really know that this song was written by Kate way back in the 80s . Its her creation from a phenomenal album . Placebo has the advantage of high insight and slows down the tempo . That might appeal to some but it drags after a while ,after all the song is about "running up that hill " However , Placebo has a place for bringing a classic to a wider ,younger audience .
@TheWoodlandWitch55 While I like the classic version, the Placebo version brings a very different feel and atmosphere due to the slower tempo, Brian's accent, and the standard way that Placebo seem to add a touch of melancholy to all their tracks. It almost sounds like a different song.
@TheWoodlandWitch55 Wouldn't quite say they're for a younger audience mate, placebo are more old fashioned than a lot of the 'old' bands about now, if anything they're for more a 30's age range, as for the cover, it's amazing for the very reason that they managed to cover a song into a style that sounds nothing like the original, which takes more talent than you can even imagine
@TheWoodlandWitch55 covers are about paying tribute to the original artist as well as putting your own spin on the track. Kate is amazing and I think Placebo did an wonderful cover :)
After listening to Kate Bush's, Placebo's and Chromatics' I have to say my favourite is the latter. All are good and are product's of their time and the artists' tastes. Great listening for everyone!
I'm here because of Vampire Diaries, The OC, Warehouse 13, Bones, Criminal Minds, Daybreakers, Wrestlemania: Undertaker vs Shawn Michaels Promo, NCIS LA, The History Channel, Supernatural, Vampire Diaries again (I rewatched the episode), Kate Bush, and remembering the name of the song while I was literally running up a hill.
Do people actually need to fight about which version is better? Kate Bush wrote and recorded an amazing song, and this is an amazing cover of it. Brilliant song no matter what version - isn't it possible to enjoy both of them, or at least accept that someone may prefer the one you don't?
@basia4153 It's not "better", its prefered over kate bush. She still has the original and its good. Must have been for Placebo and Within Temptation to cover it. Agree lol?
@anonimation1234 I am sure the songs talks about helping some one out of a hard place in their life. I dont think it actually has any connotation to drugs.
i really like that version. it sounds mysterious, darker, makes you think about the lyrics more...
