Singer Kate Bush has said her sudden popularity with a new audience after her recent Stranger Things-inspired chart success has been “very special”.
Running Up That Hill went to number one on Friday after being featured heavily in Netflix’s sci-fi drama series.
“It’s just extraordinary,” she told BBC Radio 4’s Woman’s Hour on Wednesday.
“It’s such a great series. I thought that the track would get some attention. But I just never imagined that it would be anything like this.”
She continued: “It’s so exciting. But it’s quite shocking really, isn’t it? I mean, the whole world’s gone mad.”
