English singer-songwriter Kate Bush just broke into the Billboard Top 10 for the first time — with a song she released four decades ago.

"Running Up That Hill (A Deal With God)" peaked in the No. 30 spot on the Billboard Hot 100 when it came out in 1985. It's now having a major renaissance thanks to Stranger Things, the 1980s-based sci-fi hit whose fourth season premiered on Netflix late last month.
