I really love Placebo's "Running Up That Hill", and coming from a big Kate Bush fan, I think that says a lot. Same with the Futureheads's "Hounds of Love". I guess when covering Kate Bush, they bring it lol

Yanno, it's rather dull, I don't think of it too much at all, but I don't HATE it like the Romeo&Juliet one.

As CinisterCee would tell me: F*** that remake!
evillol

But all jokes aside, Prince was right to diss that version. Gin & Timbo really mess up with that cover. And the video didn't have anything to do with the song at all. disbelief
