Because she's inspired by the same artist that you love, and she's bringing the same type of music to the table. It doesn't happen often on these shows anyway, Vickers was good but she has nothing on Bo.

Who says Kate Bush needs to be validated by 'The Voice UK' anyway? I don't see the problem. I'm a Kate Bush fan. I like her music. I don't like talent shows performing music I like, to a poorer standard, and then hearing people motivated by money and fame talk about "how much of a great song choice it is".

Because if you look at what the song's about:

I was trying to say that, really, a man and a woman, can't understand each other because we are a man and a woman. And if we could actually swap each other's roles, if we could actually be in each other's place for a while, I think we'd both be very surprised! [Laughs] And I think it would lead to a greater understanding. And really the only way I could think it could be done was either... you know, I thought a deal with the devil, you know. And I thought, 'well, no, why not a deal with God!' You know, because in a way it's so much more powerful the whole idea of asking God to make a deal with you. You see, for me it is still called "Deal With God", that was its title. But we were told that if we kept this title that it would not be played in any of the religious countries, Italy wouldn't play it, France wouldn't play it, and Australia wouldn't play it! Ireland wouldn't play it, and that generally we might get it blacked purely because it had God in the title.

It's really not. It's just a lazy "oh my mum's ill let's listen to a chorus and see that it's a bit powerful and decide it's about her" decision. So no I'm not happy. Run and tell that
