Kate Bush says young fans mistook her for a ‘new artist’ in 2022 – and she ‘loved’ it

Kate Bush has said many young fans mistook her for “a new artist” in 2022, and admitted that she “loved” it. The British singer-songwriter enjoyed renewed popularity this year after her song Running Up That Hill featured in the Netflix show Stranger Things.

Sharing her annual Christmas message with fans via her website, the 64-year-old described 2022 as a “crazy, rollercoaster year” after the track went to number one almost 40 years after its release. Posting a photo of a robin perched on a branch, she said: “It was such a great feeling to see so many of the younger generation enjoying the song.

“It seems that quite a lot of them thought I was a new artist! I love that!”
