Omnesia

September 4, 2018

As we prepare to release our new album World On Fire, Omnesia wanted to honor one of our most favorite artists, the incomparable Kate Bush. 

200 songs written by age 14.

First woman in history to set up her own label, build her own recording studio and first woman in UK history to earn a self-penned #1 hit. 

She has the voice of an angel with multiple persona’s and an incredible range. Her videos were groundbreaking, intense, edgy, gorgeous visuals and her phenomenal modern dancing. mime, theater, costumes and personas were amazing. You can hear that her verse and chorus persona’s are two different things. She was never herself. She created unique characters for each of her musical stories... 

She broke all the rules in songwriting and performance, and inspired a generation of powerful, woke female artists. Decades later with the advent of sampled music, she is one of the world’s most sampled artists, with 75 musical acts having recorded songs that used samples of her music. 

In 2014 she came out of retirement with Before the Dawn, a concert residency by British 4 at the Hammersmith Apollo in London. The residency consisted of 22 dates; it was Bush's first series of live shows since her first tour in 1979, which finished with three performances at the same venue. She spent weeks filming the video content that was used in this immersive performance. She spent an entire day floating in a tank of water to film the images for her song about drowning. Her voice was as amazing as the day the world first discovered her. Musical royalty from around the world flew in to London to see multiple shows. Sting and Elton John went 7 times. To see a riveting documentary about her, go here:

Medella and I were delighted to discover that we both had the same Kate Bush song on our bucket list. 

So here it is, Omnesia covers Kate Bush “Running Up That Hill (A Deal With God) from her album Hounds of Love. The song was originally titled “A Deal With God” but American radio stations refused to play the song with that title. Bush then changed it to Running Up That Hill and the rest is history
