This woman is a visionary. To think this was first released in 1989 ! This is one of my favourite songs and a completely captivating video.

This song demonstrates that Kate Bush could’ve written a Black Mirror episode in 1989 but Charlie Brooker could never write a Kate Bush song

Love it. Chilling, horrifying in its way. Exactly what I expect from a teenager who gave us "Hammer Horror" and "James and the Cold Gun." She hasn't changed in terns of the profundity that compels her even if the technological has changed. She's utterly unique, an artist of extremity. This video epitomizes all that and more. Kate Bush is beyond taste, beyond fashion, and I love her for it. This video is constant rotation. Thank you, Kate Bush.

Wow! I’m actually speechless. Why have I never heard of this before? I’m blown away!

[sisterofnight]

Good to see Kate still knows how to freak us out!! Wow I bet Noel was thrilled to be in a Kate video.

[juandemm]

She is what you can call a truly artist in the whole meaning of the word....love her forever!

[Gymshoes]

See the way the music envelopes the stressed-out businessman, and he relaxes, a smile coming tro his face as he surrenders to it. That's the way I feel every time I listen to this amazing woman.

[vasilisvita]

I can't believe she wrote this back in 1989

[nellies]

This version of the song is so cool, and the song is so relevant today. I prefer the original, but this one gets a bit more experimental and a bit creepier in a way and her vocals are so raw and you can hear the distress and pain in her voice. I love this video, she's not in it but I can imagine she's right behind the camera directing everything!

This Video is amazing, surely its about the man trying to find inner happiness and looking back at better days but ends up with nothing but his computer for friendship. Isnt that we are all doing when watching this video?

[dreamygirlwow]

Such a prophetic song** Kate Bush is a stellar, brilliant artist***

[malvanlondon]

Another great song and video from (surely) the first lady of British (and Irish) pop.

[Elnont]

Noel fielding and Kate Bush are both queens.

[veramon]

As the people here grow colder
I turn to my computer
And spend my evenings with it
Like a friend
I was loading a new program
I had ordered from a magazine
Are you lonely, are you lost?
This voice console is a must
I press Execute

Hello, I know that you've been feeling tired
I bring you love and deeper understanding
Hello, I know that you're unhappy
I bring you love and deeper understanding

Well I've never felt such pleasure
Nothing else seemed to matter
I neglected my bodily needs
I did not eat, I did not sleep
The intensity increasing
'Til my family found me and intervened
But I was lonely, I was lost
Without my little black box
I pick up the phone and press execute

[CalumRhysJones]

Love the original so much but this creates much more atmosphere and conveys the meaning of the song far more.

[earthcouldcome]

I love those artists who make us discover and under standing the realities off life to day....Please dont stop

[GangBlud]

What.. this video/song definitely inspired the movie ''Her''. My mind is actually blown.

[denisruskin]

The fact she wrote this in 89 and it’s now more relevant than ever. Basically a female Bowie.

[Pholcusphalangioides]

Makes me want to throw my phone in a river.
It's like KB has captured everything that makes me worry about the future, the way culture is progressing, and provides some comfort in letting us know that yes, it is a legitimate concern and not just some 'first world problem'. I wish people would take heed of her message, I hope there is some anti-digital/pro-human movement sometime soon. We need that.

[keithjones]

It's unreal!, how can a person have so much talent? Kate Bush is not of this world.
