Oh, the drama! The passion! The cold windows! Kate Bush's lyrical masterpiece is a veritable soap opera set to music. Drawing inspiration from Emily Bronte's novel of the same name, Bush channels the tragic love story of Cathy and Heathcliff. Amidst wailing winds and moors greener than an envious lover's eye, we find our heroine yearning for her brooding beau. She's cold (physically and emotionally), she's desperate, and she just wants to be let in - both into Heathcliff’s window and his heart. Alas, this is no simple love ballad; it’s a haunting tale of obsession, longing, and soul-grabbing desperation. So next time you're feeling a bit melodramatic about your love life, remember: at least you're not standing outside on a windy moor begging to be let in someone’s window!
