A 1985 eternal classic from Kate Bush is roaring back up the charts, and honestly, we couldn’t be happier.
Thanks to the new season of Stranger Things, a whole new generation have just discovered Running Up That Hill (A Deal With God).
Set in that same year, Kate Bush is character Max’s (played by Sadie Sink) new favourite artist with the song featuring prominently in episode 4.
