It's really no wonder to me that Kate Bush guested on Big Country's album The Seer's title track because not an insignificant amount of that album WAS INFLUENCED BY KATE BUSH, and absolutely no one can change my mind. (To be fair, I don't think that even the band would want to change my mind about that. Which, I love them for that.)

#Big Country #I THOUGHT ''strange delight'' was an interesting phrase in ''The Teacher''...TURNS OUT even earlier it was in ''Babooshka'' LIKE...omg.#and ''I Walk the Hill'' - okay sir like that isn't your response to ''Running Up That Hill''...lol #I know Stuart OFTEN referred to Kate as his favorite female artist but good lord. 😂 (don't get me wrong though I love that #and I also highly highly respect it. Kate IS a fucking genius. who better to be influenced by?)#anyway I do really love and respect when men are *transparent* about being influenced by women.#that's the way it fucking should be but it rarely is. even now. still. even WOMEN think they shouldn't admit that other women inspired them #and I obviously do not subscribe to that pettiness or misogyny and it makes me happy when others feel and act the same.
