Hounds of Love

Hounds of Love is a 1985 album by Kate Bush. It is regarded as one of her more accessible albums by critics and fans alike. After self-producing The Dreaming, Bush went one step further with this album by producing it herself at her own custom built home studio. The album marked her breakthrough into the American charts with the Top 40 hit "Running Up That Hill (A Deal With God)". The album also yielded a set of videos, the most famous of which is "Cloudbusting", directed by Julian Doyle, co-starring movie star Donald Sutherland and inspired by the life of psychologist Wilhelm Reich.
