Kate Bush - running up the hill
By any chance?

It's actually called 'Running Up That Hill'

It doesn't hurt me
Do you want to feel how it feels
Do you want to know, know that it doesn't hurt me
Do you want to hear 'bout the deal that I'm making
You, you and me,

CHORUS

And if I only could
I'd make a deal with God
And I'd get him to swap our places
Be running up that road
Be running up that hill
Be running up that building
If I only could oh...

You don't want to hurt me
But see how deep the bullet lies
Unaware I'm tearing you asunder
Ooh there is thunder in our hearts
Is there so much hate for the ones we love
'Tell me we both matter don't we
You
You and me
You and me won't be unhappy

And if I only could
I'd make a deal with god
And I'd get him to swap our places
Be running up that road
Be running up that hill
Be running up that building
If I only could oh...

You
You and me
You and me won't be unhappy
C'mon baby c'mon darlin'
Let me steal this moment from you now
Cone on angel, c'mon, c'mon darling
Let's exchange the experience oh,

And if I only could
I'd make a deal with God
And I'd get him to swap our places
Be running up that road
Be running up that hill
With no ploblems.

And if I only could
I'd make a deal with God
And I'd get him to swap our places
Be running up that road
Be running up that hill
With no ploblems.

And if I only could
I'd make a deal with God
And I'd get him to swap our places
Be running up that road
Be running up that hill
With no ploblems.

And if I only could
Be running up that hill
With no problems.

Track 1 on her 1985 album, 'Hounds Of Love' (recently re-mastered)

what do you reckon her best album is??

i really like hounds of love and red shoes... but others no doubt will like other albums... they're a good place to start though...

Running in the night...

Hounds of Love was probably her biggest selling album and is generally considered her best.

If you like 'running up that hill' then get this album. the other tracks are similar in style. The song 'Cloudbusting' will surely hold great appeal as well.

One of the best album ever, IMO. Its a real grower. 50ft tall and still growing.

She has a new album out next month - six years after aerial. Cant wait.

PS My fav album was Never for Ever. Army Dreamers was off that particular album. Great Song
