37 years later, it became a hit again - the strange power of Kate Bush
What starts as the story of one viral song quickly becomes a deeper exploration of why Kate Bush has remained so culturally powerful for nearly half a century. Long before “Running Up That Hill” exploded again through Stranger Things, Bush had already built a reputation as one of pop music’s most inventive and uncompromising artists — blending theatrical storytelling, experimental production, literary themes, and cutting-edge technology into songs that sounded unlike anything else on the radio. After early fame nearly overwhelmed her, Bush retreated from the pressures of celebrity into the English countryside, where she built her own studio and created music entirely on her own terms. The video explores how “Running Up That Hill” captured something strangely timeless: a longing for connection, escape, understanding, and emotional transformation that continues resonating across generations. And nearly 40 years after its original release, the song’s return to the charts proved something incredibly rare in pop music — Kate Bush wasn’t simply nostalgic. She was timeless.

‘Curb Your Enthusiasm’ then & now: Where is the cast today
If you’re still laughing over awkward encounters and cringe-worthy moments from ‘Curb Your Enthusiasm’, you’re not alone. The long-running improv comedy, created by Larry David, has kept fans hooked since its debut in 2000, with David playing an exaggerated version of himself navigating everyday disasters with painfully funny results. At the center of it all was Larry David, who previously rose to fame as the co-creator of ‘Seinfeld’. Now in his late seventies, he’s still shaping comedy, with a new HBO sketch series in the works, which he is writing, producing, and also starring in. The project is set to premiere in June 2026 and is being produced by Barack and Michelle Obama’s company, Higher Ground Productions. Cheryl Hines, who played Larry’s on-screen wife Cheryl David, has also remained active in film and television. She has appeared in projects such as ‘RV,’ ‘Waitress,’ and ‘The Ugly Truth.’ She’s also maintained a high-profile life in Washington, DC, thanks in part to her husband, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., who was appointed US Secretary of Health and Human Services in 2025. Jeff Garlin, known for his role as Jeff Greene, also served as an executive producer on the series. Garlin has built an extensive career across TV and film, appearing in the hit comedy series ‘The Goldbergs’ while also lending his voice to major animated films, including Pixar’s ‘WALL-E’ and the ‘Toy Story’ franchise. And then there’s Susie Essman, who played the fiery Susie Greene. Essman has remained active in recent years, continuing to do voice work on hit animated series like ‘The Simpsons’ and ‘Bob’s Burgers.’
