Description

Now on to collaboration #2 for the Sensual World era!
What does the frontman for an 80s synth rock band and Kate Bush have in common?
Why, this song!
Midge Ure is best known as the frontman for the band Ultravox, who were known for huge 80s hits like Vienna (voted in the UK the best #2 hit of all time and for good reason!), Dancing With Tears In My Eyes, and Reap the Wild Wind (their only US chart entry).
In 1985, he went solo with an album called The Gift. His follow-up album, Answers to Nothing, was released in 1987 and features our lovely Kate on his song Sister and Brother.
So listen as we explore this album track and the story of how Midge Ure and Kate Bush got involved for this song!
