Ty Reacts To Kate Bush - This Woman's Work

The song hits harder the older you get, the more emotional mileage you have behind you. Timeless.

Your emotional reaction to that track was exactly what Kate intended, gets me everytime

When you’re older this song hits soooo much harder. The more you grow as a person the more it makes sense

Kate is my favourite artist of all time and I adore this song. Dad's reaction is very relatable, because it's such an emotional, deep, beautiful song. Son's reaction - he looks uncomfortable and bored especially at the beginning. But no judgement, I get it that Kate isn't everyone's cup of tea and good on him that he tried and participated in the reaction video, and did say it's a good piece of work.

This is my favourite song from Kate - what an amazing emotional reaction, i totally agree 🥲

Made me cry watching you trying not to cry. Beautiful song ❤

She has an incredible voice that seems to cut right through to your heart. It's almost impossible to define what it is about Kate Bush that makes her such a unique artist, she's an enigma, and in this time when artists seem under so much pressure to forgo true originality for the sake of repeating whatever winning formula the record companies are pushing, hard to imagine anyone sounding so fresh as she did when she suddenly burst into the scene as if from nowhere.

Thank you for your reactions to this beautiful song, Kate had previously worked with the same director on a film called "Castaway" for which Kate wrote the song "Be Kind To My Mistakes". So she very tempted by this offer to write a song to match a particular sequence in the film. Here's one of Kate's comments about the background to the creation of the song. "John Hughes, the American film director, had just made this film called 'She's Having A Baby', and he had a scene in the film that he wanted a song to go with. And the film's very light: it's a lovely comedy. His films are very human, and it's just about this young guy - falls in love with a girl, marries her. He's still very much a kid. She gets pregnant, and it's all still very light and child-like until she's just about to have the baby and the nurse comes up to him and says it's a in a breech position and they don't know what the situation will be. So, while she's in the operating room, he has so sit and wait in the waiting room and it's a very powerful piece of film where he's just sitting, thinking; and this is actually the moment in the film where he has to grow up. He has no choice. There he is, he's not a kid any more; you can see he's in a very grown-up situation. And he starts, in his head, going back to the times they were together. There are clips of film of them laughing together and doing up their flat and all this kind of thing. And it was such a powerful visual: it's one of the quickest songs I've ever written. It was so easy to write. We had the piece of footage on video, so we plugged it up so that I could actually watch the monitor while I was sitting at the piano and I just wrote the song to these visuals. It was almost a matter of telling the story, and it was a lovely thing to do: I really enjoyed doing it. (Roger Scott Interview, BBC Radio 1 (UK), 14 October 1989)"

Goosebumps all over!,the great Kate Bush,a national treasure here in the U.K.💖

When he stands up, turns with his fists clenched in front of him, it just tells so eloquently the helplessness of a man waiting for a woman to conquer the innumerous challenges a woman must confront singularly in child birth. My wife spent two days enduring induced labor and was edging toward pre-eclampsia. After all that effort she still had to have a C-section. At the end I was trying to urge her to keep trying because her doctor was telling her how healthful it would be to have a conventional birth. I'll never forget the last time I told her, "You can do it, give it one more push. Breathe Darling, breathe." She gave it one more try but her groan was of someone who had nothing left. I told the doctor we had to go to plan B. It's funny because the doctors can tell so little from ultra-sounds. She was more than a week late and they predicted our son to be 6 and a half to 7 lbs. He was 10 pounds, 2 ounces. My wife is Korean, and there was no way her cervix could accommodate my son's enormous European melon. Kate Bush's background screaming in this song just rips my very foundation to shreds.

this song also played in one of my favorite sappy shows of the 90s ... 7th Heaven. i bawled ok 😭😭

I love how empathetic your son looks at you time to time. This song is so strong ..

One of my top all time songs, love Kate! 👍

We have a heatwave here in the UK at the moment. As soon as Kate started singing I got chills ... then when Dad started to well up I started with the tears. It was a magical moment. The power of Kate eh? Good work guys ...

Amazing reaction guys, for me watching your differing reactions to this song, exemplifies our differing emotional stages in life, as you get older lyrics carry more meaning and potency that perhaps trigger memories for us, but as a younger man this may seem a little "Over emotional", this is by no means a criticism, just an observation..... either way a beautiful song, thanks to you both for this.

True talent your reaction does you both proud.

This song always moves me to tears. But on a nerdy note, clock the homage to Hitchcock in the “single shot take” movement of the scene where she falls ill and he takes her to hospital. Beautiful imagery to a beautiful track

One of the few songs that gets me in tears or near to tears EVERY time I hear it. Genius. Another one being Ode To My Family by The Cranberries.

It perfectly encapsulates that feeling a father must have when his wife is in labour.

Sometimes words don't do something beautiful justice. I'll leave it here.... ❤️
