Kate Bush is an undeniable legend of music. It’s therefore no surprise that when she wants to make a video for the first official single she’s released in years she can bring in whomsoever she wants to be in it. In this instance that’s Robbie Coltrane (probably best known for playing Hagrid in the Harry Potter movies). She can also leave out whomsoever she wants (i.e. herself – although she did direct it).
The clip starts with a lonely man in his office putting a CD into his computer that is “the only one that truly understands [him],” and from there he is transported to various places. Watch below.
This version of “Deeper Understanding” comes from Kate Bush’s upcoming album of reworks, entitled Director’s Cut which is due out on May 16th through Fish People.
