Our Take
Kate Bush's BBC Christmas special from 1979 is truly a festive treat for fans of the eccentric singer-songwriter. From the moment she takes the stage wearing a sparkly reindeer costume, you know you're in for a wild ride. The setlist is a mix of classic holiday tunes and Bush's own hits, all given her unique twist. Her rendition of "Jingle Bells" is strange yet delightful, with her signature high-pitched vocals soaring over the jangly piano accompaniment. But it's when she performs her own songs that the magic really happens. "Wuthering Heights" takes on a whole new meaning in this Christmas setting, with Bush's haunting vocals sending shivers down your spine. And when she sings "December Will Be Magic Again," you can't help but feel like she's right there with you, spreading holiday cheer. The highlight of the special, however, has to be when she brings out a surprise guest - none other than David Bowie himself. The two icons duet on "Peace on Earth/Little Drummer Boy," and it's a truly magical moment that will go down in Christmas TV history. Overall, Kate Bush's BBC Christmas special from 1979 is a must-watch for fans of her music and those looking for a bit of holiday spirit. So grab a mince pie, pour yourself a glass of mulled wine, and let Kate Bush's enchanting performance transport you to a winter wonderland unlike any other.
