Patrick Wolf - Running Up That Hill (Kate Bush cover)

[UggianoEdgar]

there are many ways to meet a woman, i prefer bumping, with fisical contact as a first approach.. why should i hate someone for not being like me? i tell you why two reasons, the first is because putting the word gay in my comment will give you the attention, the second is that you should be more conserned with being arrogant rather than being gay.

[eithesar]

I didn;t hear the original until after i heard this and i thought this is great and fantastic!

[JAKERZOH]

He's not even gay? lmao. He's said that he doesn't have a distinct term for his sexuality so hows about you just leave it at that? Being gay, straight, bi, pansexual or any other 'minority' doesn't and shouldn't affect the way you think of someone. If you dislike his music for the simple reason that he 'may be gay' then I don't think he's the one with the problem

[Rikuji20]

Hey guys, guess what? Patrick Wolf is homosexual!

Hey guys, guess what? Corey Taylor is heterosexual!

Hey guys, guess what? It really doesnt fucking matter! Listen to the damn song or get the fuck off the page!

[gold95]

I'm sorry, but there is no way this comes close to Kate's version... some songs you just leave alone...

[reapercussions]

Wait, there's people here who listen to KATE BUSH and they don't like gays? Oh dear.

[SaffronSugar]

@reapercussions I know! Kate Bush has homophobic fans?!?!

[AkatsukiCBK]

okay, I'm not a fan of this particular cover tbh

but being gay doesn't affect your ability to play piano, so why did this even come up?

[wompacakes1]

lovley piano melody, just that on it's own wud suffice...otherwise pleasant

[bezhamster]

Most men that're comfortable with their own sexuality(gay or straight) are gentle and not macho.

Machismo is a lie that people tell themselves. Time we learn we don't have to prove ourselves.

anyway ... patrick is amazing, his sexuality is part of his music only because it's very personal. that's one of his main qualities. Even alec empire managed to leave his personality intact.

[OpheliaLestrange]

his voice is just too beautiful and he puts so much feeling in every line...<3

[Steve1973ify]

Like i said this is shit people who think this is good your taste buds are very sour a cover a bad one at that? Listen to Within Temptation there version is the best cover of this classic song go and check it out far superior to this

[MisterBlue24]

What a pile of shit! Some people should NOT be allowed to cover other people's songs.

[jasmin2269]

i love kate bushs song running up that hill!

but patricks version is very very good! I love him!!!!

[LAZZZARA]

whats the last word he's saying? thats called officially...?

[drhead]

@LAZZZARA officially butchering the song, I think he says.

[LAZZZARA]

haha okey, ic. thanks!

[OpheliaLestrange]

@LAZZZARA

"that's called officially butchering the song" ;)

[toothpimp]

DAMN! I've loved this song since it first came out and I think that this is the only cover that I've heard that remotely does it justice. Good job!

[JewishVegan]

kate bush is so freaking special.

is there anyone she hasn't influenced?

[Steve1973ify]

Deicide or Cannibal corpse

[Uktrayf]

ahaaaah.

[lztangerine2]

patrick's and placebo's versions are amazingly beautiful

[Insaneagram]

Agreed. Placebo's version was my favourite but now I think I'm leaning more towards his.

[Bozzy83]

i JUST FOUND OUT ABOUT THIS SONG... MY GOD... WTF AM I THE ONLY PERSON THAT NEVER HEARD OF KATE BUSH .....LOVE PLACEBO TO DEATH LOVE PATRICK...........

I FEEL SAD NOW....

[SaffronSugar]

@Bozzy83 Yes. Yes you are the only person (with obviously good musical taste) that has never heard of Kate Bush! It's never too late. It'sall amazing. Start with "The Whole Story" album for a good intro,I think.

[Kyo12h]

FUCKING AMAZING

[Multivits]

Beautifully sung and played! His talent amazes me, & so what if his gay?? I'm gay and i for one definitely would... . . .

[dcrelentlesssk8]

hahahahahahaaa

[AsboDolche]

hes fucking fine!!!! i agree

[davepenk1066]

@Multivits

Oh come on you weird bastards

Beautifully sung.....Crap

and played...Crap

His talent amazes me.....Crap

All gays should be shot

[EvilPrawns]

@davepenk1066 Hahaha. You made my day. Sometimes I don't believe people when they say that people are narrow-minded even in 2011, but alas...

[xotheverdict]

There is absolutely NO need for any sort of homophobic commentary, He has a beautiful face, and if you don't see any charm in it, then, I'm forced to wonder why you're looking at it with as much energy as you are.

[deeperandeeper]

Fuck you he's hot!

[Oddishness]

I like this.

It sounds NOTHING like the original, which does irk me a bit, but he's got such a beautiful voice that it makes up for it.

[TheOwlandWasp]

Oh my God. Well done, Patrick. Well done.

[alex13page]

this is beautiful

[ShannonGoreLOL]

I love this version so much. Agreeably, the original is much better, but still, it takes guts to attempt a classic like that and i honestly think Patrick has succseeded in making this amazing.

Please leave your negative comments out of it, thankyou very much

[rexjackson]

wow i was at this show! i've never looked for clips before thanks for this!

[LisaMarieDickinson]

he is so calming

and beautiful

and gorgeous

and heart warming

and i LOVE him

[neanderthalium]

tres bien !!

[plushpod988]

he is a beautiful man. beautiful version, I really need the sheet music.

[Luke19Wales]

his heart was in the right place but his voice was in all the wrong places lol

[lipstickohyeah]

lol

[TalentlessCrap]

Horrible like Placebo's version...

[brittishnemo777]

as the 6 thumbs down imply

fuck you

[Nimzomyth68]

that is terrible. From the build up I thought it was going to be good. Sorry terrible.

[helloimthedoc]

"that's called officially butchering a song."

aww, Patch, no. that was beautiful, that was. (:

I love this dude.

[amberlinorhaha]

YAYYYY

[lottieyeahlottie]

Superb, utterly superb.

[jimmysmecker]

fuck off this is perfect. I am addicted to this, its followed me for months now. Kate started it and now it seems only fitting for patrick to truelly give this beautiful song justice.. who else could?

[Eschmalenberger]

Justin Bond

[jimmysmecker]

at risk of sounding completely uncultured.. are we talking the Justin Bond in Shortbus.. ha

[Eschmalenberger]

you dont sound uncultured at all... the very same Justin Bond as the one in Shortbus!!!!

[XxSeizeTheDayxXx]

This is really really beautiful.

Oh how I have missed listening to this.

[ShortSkirtsLongHair]

patricks version is my fave. i love him.x

[madsketcher]

I enjoy this much more than Placebo's cover (which is basically a giant nose singing over some sludgey, dried-ass rhythms), but it's still not doing it for me. Patrick doesn't have the emotional fire in his voice like Kate. The piano playing is lovely, though.

[HorseDogSnake]

*_* His piano playing is amazing...

[NiceeOnee]

I love it. & him.

[amigoacid]

this guy is a fucking loser, he doesnt know what the hell is trying to do, the placebo´s cover is nasty but this is a pice of shit

[amigoacid]

this guy is a fucking loser, he doesnt know what the hell is trying to do, the placebo´s cover is nasty but this is a pice of shit

[shaftiloniusmonk]

i like kate bush's version better, but i'll give patrick wolf this.

he actually covered the song.

a cover isn't just singing the song, it's taking the song and putting it in your own voice, actually making it your own. those weak covers by within temptation and placebo are just them rehashing something that kate bush already did, better.

[penrilfake]

What a lesser cover. His voice doesn't really fit this song; maybe he should have tried And Dream of Sheep.

[dukesheep]

P-wolf is a genius, complete legend, love the man - Love Kate to, and this cover is blooming brilliant, have it on my ipod :]]] x

[jOSullivan3]

placebo are boring. Pat's is well better

[nabmfever]

i think placebos is the best version of all!

[shawnu036]

check out placebo's version

[o0nbj0o]

You do know the expression is "let alone", not "little lown" you chimp.

[cheekyairboy]

wait, who just got called a chimp? me? things move too fast these days, honestly... i can never even get a parking space for my horse-drawn cart...

[o0nbj0o]

No, Shawnu036 is the chimp

[1234sophie1]

hahahahaaha. Ur kewt. ! hdjksad jskl

Goodness

[cheekyairboy]

hey see that little wooolly item next to the vodkorange on the corner of the piano (if yer squint, tilt your head etc... it's there, i swear) well THAT'S the hat i knitted for patrick wolf!! and successfully pegged onstage!!! ...fit to swooon... xoxox

[paulgroeser]

loser

[paulgroeser]

nou en?

[betweenyourthigh]

great, I even like it more than 'cebo's and I'm a fantard, that means something... he's a great musician

[kroum5]

for me the best one cover is from wt,it's so great!

and then placebo,of course,which is absolutely p.e.r.f.e.c.t!!

This one was ok!

[mattdamonlover110]

I love this version. I love Patrick Wolf with all my heart.

[RambaFirin]

I love this cover, but I still love Placebo's as much.. Covers are so personal in a different way from own songs, because you have to put the character in the interpretation.. this shows patrick, placebo's shows placebo (and I adore them both >3) ...

[murrayrothstein]

Really nice arrangement and delivery marred by a muddy and overly hot recording. Any other versions available?

[zobzo]

I love Kate Bush and I think this is a brilliant cover; it's a lost more exciting than Placebos version which is frankly a little dull. I downloaded him covering this song off lime wire, I think it was recorded live in Islington it's definitely worth listening to it's a really good quality recording.

[moderngirl90]

But he always talk so much in his concert??? ç_ç

[STAnger1969]

Well, I hope not! I mean, god forbid!

[Porkcrumble]

i was there.

it was so beautiful.

[cali89]

ok that version is downright scary

[JoeJoe00]

patrick wolf pwns placebo with this cover.

sorry placebo, I've found my new obsession.

[ladrugaddicto]

sacrilege! as any other attempt at covering our Goddess.

[bruisedpetal]

:o did he SWEAR!

And what did he say at the end? "Thats called a fish..." something? hehe.

I love this cover, thanks for putting it up!

[bruisedpetal]

I'VE GOT IT! "That's called officially butchering a sooong!" I swear I haven't been watching this over and over.. ¬_¬
