"Don't Give Up" will always hold the number one special place in my heart because truly, it was the first time I ever really saw or heard Kate Bush as far as I know. Of course I probably heard one of her popular songs on the radio... but would I have ever noted it? Most certainly not. The truth is that "Don't Give Up" literally saves lives... it is a very serious song with a very powerful and deep message and it is not "just a song".
As far as Kate Bush by herself, "A Deal With God" is my favorite right now, I think it's her most iconic work... and damn amazing video too:
I don't call it "Running Up That Hill" because she originally named it "A Deal With God" and the record company wouldn't allow it to be called that because it "might offend people"... well you know I raise two middle fingers to that concept so, of course I will call it by its rightful name.
And "Moving" is absolutely ethereal and haunting in the most wonderful way... that chorus though, my God. Legend. Total undisputed legend.
