She is unique for sure. I will never forget how thrilling it was the first time I heard Wuthering Heights. It thrills me still. There is a good BBC documentary on Kate Bush and her work on YouTube. It is worth a look.

I grew up in the Midwest suburbs and none of my good friends were into music, which meant I had to actively seek it out where I could find it. In the late 90's-early 2000's, this mostly meant reading magazine interviews with artists I liked and searching for references to any bands they mentioned as being influences, then heading to the local used CD store to see if they had any of those releases in stock. Occasionally, though, you could hear a song on TV or in a movie that would open up a new world for you (for example, I heard Nick Drake for the first time in a 2000 Volkswagen ad)...I think it's really cool that that seems to have happened here. Highly recommend this concert documentary from 1980: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bfn66mUK0WI
