I had heard of this, but never had heard it. Thanks BP! I'm a bit of a Kate Bush fan.

I have always liked this song. I can remember listening to "Sexual Healing" as a kid. One of the first times I heard it, I was in the fifth grade. I was in my bedroom alone, listening to a little boombox I had, and making felt Christmas ornaments. I can't remember diddly, but I remember this.

Thanks for this great version, BP.

I don't get a link - on the right of the page - to download. Am I doing something wrong? (i'm logged in, too.) Also, thanks BP, I LOVE KB best of all!

I don't get the download option either when BP sends a song on Divshare. He may have it enabled where you can't download the original, because he respects the artist's right to make money. Unlike me, where I just give the song to download. :-)

Hmm, no, you should be able to download! Let me check.

Dang, there was a stray checkbox that should not have been checked. Downloads now enabled! (Thanks for saying something- I didn't know that was happening!)

The idea of Kate Bush singing this makes me tinglier than the actual song. But thanks!!

It is tragic that Kate Bush is singing about sex and she's never met me, let along singing this ABOUT me.

It's just not fair!

Good lord... if this is the first one for you, you need to go back to some of her early stuff. A lot of it was sexual, even if not sexy.

You don't even have to go back that far. Check out "The Sensual World".
