But the demon on the hill isn’t as hungry as the demon climbing the hill

This song is apparently earning Bush £250,000 per day in royalties!

its from stranger things the new season.

I never heard or knew about the song prior.

I had it on repeat for a while in the gym.

Catchy as hell.

another clickbait thread.  I thought I was going to see Kate's bush while she was running up a hill but nope.  Just some bullshit instead.

If you want to brag on Instagram about going out for a run that no one cares about, this is the song to use as your soundtrack👍

That's nuts. It's a  "best song ever" candidate that's been constantly played on radio for decades. It's on my list.

One of the worst songs I’ve ever heard and that’s saying something. Never heard of her or this song until just now.

Don't know it. The title implies someone other than the singer is doing the running, or that she ran up it in the past or intends to in the future, but she is not currently on the hill. If someone spoke of a hill upon which they are located, it wouldn't be "that" hill. It would be "this" hill. What are you doing? I'm running up this hill. What's Jimmy doing over there? He's running up that hill over there.

Japanese has one this and two thats.
Kono, this here.
Sono, that there.
Ano, that way the fuck over there.
I can't think of any other languages that have that.
Yama means mountain. Like Fujiyama is Mount Fuji. I don't know the word for hill so I'm going with Koyama. Small mountain. That was the name of Jesse Pinkman's arrested accomplice who met a grizzly end in S1. Emilio Koyama.

The guy in the cloudbursting video was Donald Sutherland. He was the pot smoking professor from Faber College who got bodysnatched.

I trust this brings the matter to a resolution.

Apparently the song is currently #1 or #2 in the USA right now, 37 years after it was released. I believe that it’s #1 in the UK as well.

Also “Master of Puppets” by Metallica has surged back onto the top 20 music charts. Thanks to this....

Same here.

Weird because i was a kid in the 80's and would have heard this song somewhere.

Didn't even know the song until i watched Stranger Things recently.

And they played it so much on the show that i don't like it.
