Kate Bush, "Cloudbusting"

Kate Bush, "Cloudbusting"

I've written previously about my love for Kate Bush's mid-80s album, Hounds of Love. I came upon the album after my time spent watching music videos, which for most of Kate Bush's video work was probably a good thing (I suggest you don't look up her 70s vid for "Wuthering Heights"). But I did catch this video once and it pretty much stayed with me, mainly for Donald Sutherland's performance as Wilhelm Reich, the "discoverer" of Organon. The song is told from the point of view of Reich's young son, played by Bush in the video, based on the son's biography of his father. The government men who come to take Reich away are reminiscent of another 80s video, Yes's "Owner of a Lonely Heart" (which remains a worthwhile video to see as well).
