The dance moves and the fact that she didn't necessarily fit into the typical pop culture. I grew up dancing to Kate Bush when I was sort of 15, 16. And when this came on Facebook I said: 'Yes I've got to do that'. Especially as I was going through cancer treatment at the time and I thought I need fun. Rani Axtens

She was dancing freely. Just the whole atmosphere of her voice as well. Everything she put on the radio was like listening to someone singing a fairytale. I have always adored Kate Bush like everyone here. Cath Russell

What don't you love about it? It's got drama, it's got passion, it's got amazing dance moves. I'm here with a group of friends. We all went and saw Kate Bush a few years ago in London. Sam Cremean

Kate Bush is really free spirited and I think that's a really great thing to celebrate about a person. Alex Creece

I think it's kind of almost this other world that she lives in. It's very ethereal. I've always been a big Kate Bush fan and I just thought it would be a lot of fun that everyone would dress up and I guess act out a song that has a lot of meaning to a lot of different people. Dale Park

Wuthering Heights is way better than golf. That's all I've got, it's better than golf. Matthew Taylor

I grew up with Wuthering Heights. I always wanted to look like Kate Bush. I love red and I love ballet, so what more could you ask for? Maree

I love the abandon, the joy, the excitement, the love and the passion that's expressed through Wuthering Heights. Jim

Wuthering Heights just feels like freedom, freedom in the hills, letting your passions run free ... total freedom. Georgi Brooke

I love the deepness, the darkness of the moors, the tragedy and the great passionate love. Amanda Shoebridge
