This Woman's Work


God, I love both of these versions. Such a beautiful song. Maxwell does a tremendous job of capturing the essence. Remarkable since he's a male, naturally. His falsetto gives the song a more soulful & seductive sound. But Bush's warmth & tender beauty keeps drawing me in. If I want sleak & sexy though, I'd go with Maxwell.

Who is Maxwell?

Although I do respect Kate Bush's creativity and masterpiece, Maxwell diffently, diffently did better in my opinion. His voice is soothing while her's is harsh. She sounds great, don't get me wrong, but Maxwell put his own thing in it and brought the song to a wider range of audiences while I did not even know who Kate Bush was! He really did the song justice.

There is just no way anyone can ever do better than Kate Bush on this song. The original brings me to tears every time I hear it.
