Running Up That Hill – Kate Bush

Running Up That Hill – Kate Bush

Kate Bush is one of my favourites, especially her older stuff! “Running Up That Hill” is one of her most popular and has been covered by Within Temptation and Placebo.

I’ve always loved this song and really enjoy being able to play it – it’s not too fast so I nearly managed to keep up with the song playing along side me. I hope you enjoy it too 🙂
