that heavy makeup. i recommend you give this song a chance if you can stand kate bush at all. personally, i love most of her earlier stuff. this song grew on me faster than i expected it to. now i love it, and want it in my grand amorphous travelling collection of sounds. there are only two things this video needs more of; more mugging and face-making, and more, more, more make-up.
(actually, the longer it goes on, like from 2:49 on, it starts to like, take on the eerie feeling of an ill-thought-out drama lip-sync. like, you got two guys from drama class to help you out with it, and it seemed like an edgy cool idea at the conept stage; but then, when you get up there and actually have the tape rolling 'for a grade,' you realize how endless and repetitive the ending is. like, the ending didn't seem that long the night before when you were rehearsing it in your room.)

I love this. I love what she's wearing, too. Especially the zipper placement on her shirt.
and yes, there is some serious mugging going on at the end. Her face really gets a workout.
I say this about virtually everything from this time period, but this vid has a distinctly cokey vibe to it. And I love it.
