| allyart (Phoenix, Oregon) | Posted: Oct 11, 2007 - 03:36 absolutely wonderful...this song gives me goosebumps and makes the hairs on my arms stand straight up...should be listened to in the context of the entire album...thank you, kate bush, for being such an inspiration and creative muse :-) |
| sigmon (Atlanta, GA) | Posted: Feb 22, 2007 - 20:47 The "Hounds Of Love" album, and this cut in particular, changed the way I looked at music, both as a consumer and a creator. Absolutely brilliant. Cheers, Sigmon |

when i was little my father convinced me that kate bush was a witch and i cried when i found out that she wasn't such a cool pair of songs |
| syna | Posted: Sep 24, 2005 - 16:06 Crazy conceptual weirdness that approaches melodrama. Maybe. But it's roughly 100 x billion more original and nuanced than most everything that's out there so I forgive her. Kate Bush, you are a crazy lady and I LOVE YOU. |

It's meant to be listened to in sequence with the entire side of the album (yes, I bought it first on vinyl, and it's Side B, and it's called "The Ninth Wave"). If I were to pull one song out of The Ninth Wave to play for someone, it would be "Hello Earth". Beautiful.
Yes, "Hello Earth" is an incredible song. |

| jbmckee (West Valley City, UT) | Posted: Apr 17, 2002 - 16:03 Perfect fit for an "eclectic" rock station. I like it. This is why I listen. |
| drover (Chicago, IL) | Posted: Apr 17, 2002 - 15:56 This could well be the most disjointed, incoherent piece of "music" since The Beatles' "Revolution 9." Three words: What. The. Fuq. :???: |
| omboy (North Huntingdon, PA) | Posted: Mar 22, 2002 - 14:08 Two things you can never get too much of: 1. Good Sex 2. Kate Bush She is a goddess. I fell in love when she appeared on Saturday Night Live in the '70s. Please play more! |
| catsoup (Euclid, OH) | Posted: Mar 22, 2002 - 13:50 This song makes perfect sense if you've been playing "Diablo" and watching "The Cell" for two or three days without sleep. |
| RAZORBACKS (Huntington Beach, CA) | Posted: Mar 22, 2002 - 13:50 My stress level just got worse...  |
| esquanovis (Denver, CO) | Posted: Mar 22, 2002 - 13:47 overwrought. |
| loserparent (Round Rock, TX) | Posted: Feb 24, 2002 - 14:35 lost me on this one! I'll try again later. |
| Platypus (Baltimore, MD) | Posted: Feb 08, 2002 - 21:59 it just sounds confused to me. and NOT in a good way. this is pretty weak. |

| odoggy (Monterey, CA) | Posted: Jan 29, 2002 - 12:21 The second part of this song scares me. But Kate does have that effect sometimes, I think... |

| MissJenn ([RP+3] Reading, PA) | Posted: Jan 29, 2002 - 12:18 When I heard "wake up" on this piece today, it made me have a bad deja vu to Vanilla Sky : "Open your eyes."
It's a good thing that how I feel about the movie is opposite of how I feel about Kate Bush! |

| Cagey ([RPT+8] Hartlepool, England (cold)) | Posted: Jan 24, 2002 - 08:31 Wake up luv.... |
| roland (Köln, D ) | Posted: Jan 19, 2002 - 03:48 I fell in love with Kate Bush since I was 14 Years old. She has the greatest voice of the century!!! Nice to hear it today on RADIOPARADISE!! |

I love the second side (that includes this) and its theme of drowning. So, in this pair of songs she drowns under ice and the second part she's a witch being drowned as a test. Strong recommendation for The Dreaming by her. I read a review once that called it "the art of Art Rock." Which was right on. Her more recent records have been horrible disappointments, but Dreaming/Hounds are a fantastic pair. |
| Bud__ (Goleta, CA) | Posted: Jan 13, 2002 - 22:27 I usually don't like Kate Bush, this reminds me of most of those reasons. :( |
| whiteknight (Newport Coast, CA) | Posted: Jan 08, 2002 - 18:00 Annoying and gimmicky Annie Lenox wannabe. |
| red (San Diego, CA) | Posted: Jan 08, 2002 - 17:57 more! |
| dagmar (Canada) | Posted: Jan 03, 2002 - 13:14 This song has been one of my absolute favourites since I first heard it. Hearing our dreams! Thank You, Kate. ;) |
| segueman (Spring, TX) | Posted: Jan 03, 2002 - 13:12 It's so refreshing to hear something other than Running Up That Hill. Thanks |
| Dagno-M (Crackerbox Palace) | Posted: Jan 03, 2002 - 12:59 Kate is a goddess....... |
