Running Up that Hill - Placebo or Bush ??

[Smirking_Saint]

Ok here goes.

 

I heard the Placebo version first so ok, the first version allways has more of an affect on you (unless of course it is Paul Weller - Wishing on a star which was better than the original)

 

But What for you guys is the better version. I think it is an absolutely fantastic song, so much emotion, and energy. But for me i think Placebo portray the emotion better and musically do a better job.

This is the best Kate Bush cover.

[Smirking_Saint]

Just can't argue with that, the way alan portrays his words are just so touching.

 

Music for the soul.

I despise the band, but I have to admit it is a good cover.

[Marsdinho]

Kate Bush's original version all the way for me....

 

Having said that, the Future Heads did a very good version of "Hounds of Love"

 

Also, Kate Bush's cover of Rocket Man is widely regarded as one of the best covers of all time....

(Although, that's not backed up by anything I can find on the internet)

[Ponty]

It's quite haunting, melodically, but his voice is ****ing irritating.
