Kate Bush — A Life of Surprise

More than 30 years ago, a young singer shook the pop music world when she combined her ethereal voice and the ghostly images from an Emily Bronte novel to make one of the most unique songs to ever climb the charts. A lot of people thought her Wuthering Heights song was a gimmick and she would end up a one-hit wonder, but as this fascinating documentary proves, Kate Bush was soon to become a musical force unlike anything the world had seen before. There are a lot of rock critics to help put here career in perspective, but what makes this double-disc set worth watching are the interviews with the artist herself, along with plenty of clips for the artistic videos she made to go with her songs.
