Kenny Everett interviews Kate Bush

[berlinmitte10117]

Everett = genius

Bush = genius

This is not just looking back with rose tinted spectacles either - who can compare to them today? (Yes, I know Kate is around still, but the younger audience misses out). Glad I was a child of the 70/80s!

@berlinmitte10117 spot on

[smithhedgehog]

genius vs genius

[mermaidman1985]

Huge Kate Bush fan but those ladies at the start are quite interesting :D

[wilhelmlds]

Oh my goodness! It`s Sarah Brightman at the start of the video.... The time (money) did a good job in her look...

[GrandMasterZ0b]

Why can't I hear it?

[robdotcom71]

There was a clip somewhere of Kenny Everett doing a parody of Kate Bush.... anyone know where I can find it?

[frogandpeach1]

@robdotcom71 Do you mean the bit where there is a fake bush in a pot and it starts waving its branches around in time with Wuthering Heights? It only goes for about 20 seconds. It was on yt previously on another channel, but seems to have gone. Let me know if that's what you mean and I'll upload it sometime.

[robdotcom71]

@frogandpeach1 Can't remember now.... not to worry...

[controlfunction]

Total genius, both of them. Gorgeous.

So can anyone explain why the occultist Kate Bush is a National Treasure? Seriously Iwould love to know.

[Concreteowl]

@oatstao I have no idea what her private thoughts of a mystical persuasion may be but what has that got to do with the price of fish?

She's a national treasure because she does what she does and a significant number of people around the world like it and she doesn't give a hoot about being in the limelight or making huge mountains of useless cash for herself while she does it. She's more happy making a nice quiche than being in the newspapers or having her face stretched every couple of years.

[emmyjo720]

@oatstao What evidence do you have that she is an occultist? She is a national treasure because she is a genius songwriter, has a pure voice and lead the way for female singer/songwriters.

[spkenn36]

I recall a similar scetch from the KEVS with Kate Bush, where he introduces her as a freaky psychic type and she answers the questions before he asks them.

Or is this it and my memory is blurred...?

[trossachs2003]

aaaaah. You don't often see her so relaxed on tv. She must have enjoyed that. I always loved KE. No idea he ever had KB on the show. Thanks for this.

[Zambaesque]

everett does really funny interviews! if you love this you will really love his Bryan Ferry interview of the same year!

[Aueneye]

Two British national treasures together. Amazing. Popular culture really is a pile of garbage these days. Nothing but Sad, talentless, little, tangerine tinted nobodies depriving genuinely gifted people from making their contribution. Kate Bush's old sock is worth more than all the Peaches Geldoffs, Jodie Marshs and Paris Hiltons in the world.

[Abuamina001]

@Aueneye TRUE ! Its even worse out here in the Antipodes (New Zealadn) where watching local television is akin to watching cow manure dry.

[Aueneye]

@Abuamina001 : Except the cow manure probably has better commercials.;) In fact I give it a couple of years before they start trying to flog cow manure drying products on television. Let's be grateful for You Tube.;)

[digitalbroadcaster]

@Aueneye  Well said....even though I add the comment two years later!

[berlinmitte10117]

@Aueneye Absolutely correct

[dimitriosmichael]

she is such a cutey. and so wonderful an artist. so ahead of our time

[jimmyfourchannels]

Thanks for putting this up, in decent quality at last. Love that clip, you can't help but adore these two amazing humans.
