Songwriters: BUSH, KATE
Out On the wiley, windy moors
We'd roll and fall in green
You had a temper, like my jealousy
Too hot, too greedy
How could you leave me
When I needed to possess you?
I hated you, I loved you too
Bad dreams in the night
They told me I was going to lose the fight
Leave behind my wuthering, wuthering
Wuthering Heights
Heathcliff, it's me, Cathy, I've come home
I'm so cold, let me in in-a-your-window
Heathcliff, it's me, Cathy, I've come home
I'm so cold, let me in in-a-your-window
Oh it gets dark, it gets lonely
On the other side from you
I pine alot, I find the lot
Falls through without you
I'm coming back love, cruel Heathcliff
My one dream, my only master
Too long I roam in the night
I'm coming back to his side to put it right
I'm coming home to wuthering, wuthering
Wuthering Heights
Heathcliff, it's me, Cathy, I've come home
I'm so cold, let me in in-a-your-window
Heathcliff, it's me, Cathy, I've come home
I'm so cold, let me in in-a-your-window
Ooh let me have it, let me grab your soul away
Ooh let me have it, let me grab your soul away
You know it's me, Cathy
Heathcliff, it's me, Cathy come home
I'm so cold, let me in in-a-your-window
Heathcliff, it's me, Cathy come home
I'm so cold, let me in in-a-your-window
Heathcliff, it's me, Cathy come home
I'm so cold
We'd roll and fall in green
You had a temper, like my jealousy
Too hot, too greedy
How could you leave me
When I needed to possess you?
I hated you, I loved you too
Bad dreams in the night
They told me I was going to lose the fight
Leave behind my wuthering, wuthering
Wuthering Heights
Heathcliff, it's me, Cathy, I've come home
I'm so cold, let me in in-a-your-window
Heathcliff, it's me, Cathy, I've come home
I'm so cold, let me in in-a-your-window
Oh it gets dark, it gets lonely
On the other side from you
I pine alot, I find the lot
Falls through without you
I'm coming back love, cruel Heathcliff
My one dream, my only master
Too long I roam in the night
I'm coming back to his side to put it right
I'm coming home to wuthering, wuthering
Wuthering Heights
Heathcliff, it's me, Cathy, I've come home
I'm so cold, let me in in-a-your-window
Heathcliff, it's me, Cathy, I've come home
I'm so cold, let me in in-a-your-window
Ooh let me have it, let me grab your soul away
Ooh let me have it, let me grab your soul away
You know it's me, Cathy
Heathcliff, it's me, Cathy come home
I'm so cold, let me in in-a-your-window
Heathcliff, it's me, Cathy come home
I'm so cold, let me in in-a-your-window
Heathcliff, it's me, Cathy come home
I'm so cold
１９５８年７月出生的凱特布希（Kate Bush）是英國樂壇的才女
以其融合藝術搖滾 前衛搖滾 另類搖滾 巴洛克流行的折衷樂風與尖細的嗓音聞名
演唱／詞曲／製作／樂器皆擅長
其作品風格富有英國神話傳說的神秘情調
節拍清晰 旋律激昂 咬字清楚
凱特具有一口純正的英國腔 歌詞類似莎士比亞的戲劇台詞
自出道以來無論在藝術或商業上皆受到肯定
〔與蘇珊大嬸（Susan Boyle）並列英國擁有最多冠軍專輯（３張）的本土女藝人〕
凱特生於東南倫敦區的Welling區的天主教家庭 父親是英格蘭外科醫生 母親是愛爾蘭民謠舞者
外祖父是鋼琴家 兩個兄長也跟地方民謠有接觸
受到家庭影響 布希自幼也學習鋼琴與詞曲創作
由於家族朋友介紹 凱特得以讓自己的試唱帶教給英國天團平克佛洛依德（Pink Floyd）的吉他手
在後者牽線下 １６歲的凱特與EMI唱片簽下合約
經過兩年訓練後 布希從自己兩百多首創作中之 選定了處女作
１９７８年１月 １９歲半的她發行首支單曲〔Wuthering Heights／咆哮山莊〕
靈感來自１９世紀英國作家艾蜜麗布朗特（Emily Blunt）的愛情悲劇文學經典
以及１９７０年的電影版
這首另類的藝術搖滾奠定未來凱特的作品模式：文學化的歌詞 的主題典故 繁複的音樂風格
布希鬼魅般的尖細嗓音與戲劇化演繹也帶有一種異樣的神秘魔力
〔Wuthering Heights〕讓大眾對這名年輕早熟的才女驚豔不已
單曲隨即衝上英國榜冠軍 蟬聯四週 銷售突破５０萬張 拿到金唱片
國際市場亦相當成功：澳洲／義大利／比利時／愛爾蘭／紐西蘭冠軍 荷蘭＃３ 瑞典＃６ 挪威＃７瑞士＃８ 德國＃１１ 奧地利＃１７
只是進軍美國卻踢到鐵板 並沒打入單曲榜（＃１０８）
〔Wuthering Heights〕讓凱特布希一砲而紅 成為英國流行樂史上的經典之一
１９７８年２月發行完全自己譜寫歌曲的首張大碟〔The Kick Inside〕大受好評 並登上專輯榜＃３ 拿到白金
確立凱特在英國歌壇的地位
