Have you tried Kate Bush - Running Up That Hill (Datassette Remix), guys? Keeps the spirit of the original. And Kate Bush did not shit in her pants while singing.
Oh no,..this is far too slow,and empty. Kate's version is impeccable. Still,listening to this,as I type,..there IS something in that voice.I plan to listen to more by Placebo.
was this released? if not why not? very, very beautiful tune, i would make the melody a bit more european though, however i will keep this in eurodance playlist for this reason
Both Kate's original and Placebo's cover are beautifully done. Rumour has it that Kate was impressed with Brian's vocals on this and agreed for the cover to be made IF her vocals were kept during the chorus. ~
ahhh every single version i lurrrvvveee, first heard it through patrcik wolf then thought it was by kate miller heidke then i was like wtf kate bush , but now i'm in love with all three of them musicians =D AND THIS SONG
What I mean is, the fact that so many people only know this wonderful band from one or two instances where they popped up on T.V, poeple need to EXPLORE the music world more and not just rely on T.V broadcasting.
not really i know a sit load of bands i have heard on a tv show then found out about them ad started to buy their albums and songs etc and placebo was one of them i heard this on the oc 3 years back and i've seen them live twice since then if it wasnt for the oc i mite not of heard them
When I heard this song on Daybreakers it brought me back to the 80's. I just never knew who sang this song, been searching for a while, glad I found it. I thought someone else did this song.
i love the original of this song. but this version is great n definately brings something totally new to the table rather than most covers that just do the same as the original just badly.
i like placebos version more...feels like ur bein hypnotzed..but tnx lots to kate bush without her, placebo woudnt have the chance to do a cover of this!
I love the original but this is captivating in a different way I feel hypnotized. Usually remixes totally slaughters the original song but this was beautiful!
Kate Bush is a legend. It's so sad to hear that people actually think Running Up That Hill is a Placebo original. Nothing against Placebo, but Kate Bush is just too brilliant for people to not know about her.
I didn't know anything about Placebo (I'm old school progressive rock) until I found this version of Running up that Hill. Kate Bush's version is superior, but this version has a nice feel to it.
kate bush hates being in the public eye she doesnt really do verry much she never did im not really a plecebo fan and it is a shame allot of people have never heard of her because she is amazing
this piece was never meant to compare Placebo to Kate Bush;
some people love Placebo, some people love Kate Bush, some people love both LIKE ME. I worked on this version to combine the amazing talent of both. And I am pretty positive that Kate Bush was delighted Placebo covered this song: if someone covers someone else's work is recognition, they are not stealing Kate's work :) but reinterpreting it. The song belongs to Kate, Ms Bush fans know it and Placebo fans know it too.
Well, that thing you say is a bit true, but all is about generations and music likes, some people doesn't know some musicians, but it's not their fualt. When i heard this cover i said "wtf?" but later i said, "well it's cool". And IMAO placebo has done pretty good covers. I'm not a BIG fan of placebo, but i like them. i'm a progressive rock fan, and i like a lot kate bush, she has stuning voice and well compose music. So i have learned to not hate everything at first time, i've become patient.
And yes, its a shame when you discover that some people doesn't know a band or an artist, it fells like: "how have you live this far far without never hear xxxx's music???"
@curdey I didn't know about her until Placebo covered this, and didn't know that Placebo covered this till I heard the song on NCIS LA. I listened to both versions and I love both of them. It's like comparing Heath Ledger's joker to Jack Nicholson's. Both are completely different styles, but completely awesome. I will be checking out more of Kate Bush's stuff though :)
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
I just want to think that Brian and Kate had a good long talk sometime during the making and Brian is a better and more stable person because of it.. Otherwise, It's shite compared to the original.
