I have to be honest, I never heard this song until Maxwell covered it.
I absolutely loved his version.

It's great to hear the original by Kate.

This was the first Kate Bush song I sought out and listened to (other than random on the radio) due to a recommendation by Cloudy a long time ago in a thread. I just cried and cried ~ absolutely amazing song. I'll check out the video ~ thanks!

Quite a tune....

yeah, I hadn't hear of it until Maxwell too
but I love both versions

I always hated Maxwell's because it was never as good as the one in "She's Having A Baby" realeased February 5, 1988. I didn't know it was Kate Bush. I saw the movie over and over and over. They use that song in the climax of the movie, which makes me feel it more. I never understood why Maxwell re-did this song given the lyrics. It makes more sense with a woman singing it

That's where I heard it too. And I cried like an asshole.

Me too!

I bought Kate's 'The Sensual World' LP back in 1989 so I was very familiar with the original. Shocked when I first heard Maxwell cover it.

yeah check it out.....there are three parts to it. You could tell in her expression that she was uncomfortable. The interviewer could've done a little more research too before interviewing I've only seen the 1st and 3rd parts. I can't watch the second one right now, because I'm on a computer where the Java plug-in isn't allowed. Anyway....here they are
