Running up the hill once again made it to the top after thirty-seven years after being featured in the most iconic scene of Netflix’s series Stranger things season 3. The song did all the justice to the scene where one of the main characters Max is trying to escape the Vecna from Upside Down.
And if I only could
I’d make a deal with God
And I’d get him to swap our places
Be running up that road
Be running up that hill
Be running up that construction—-lyrics
Kate Bush was also astonished and overwhelmed by the response the song was receiving once again. In an interview, she said, “it’s so exciting and it’s quite shocking”. Also stating that“the whole world has gone mad over the song”. It happens very less that an old song is revived in such a manner and is ranked number one which kate mentioned as “ people discovering this song for the very first time is very special”
Oh, come on, baby (Ye-yeah)
Oh, come on, darling (Ye-yo)
Let me steal this moment from you now
Oh, come on, an angel (Yeah)
Come on, come on, —-lyrics
Kate Bush also mentioned that the scene where it was placed in stranger things did justice to the song stating it as a ‘talisman’ for max. She expressed how music is very special and saves people especially the young generation in one form or another saying ‘it touches people’. she was thankful to all her fans saying ‘it’s very exciting.

Say, if I only could
Be running up that hill
With no problems — lyrics
