It came out in 1985 and has had many covers done. I was born in 85 and I have heard it, but did not know who it was by.

I'm sure I heard the original one as a kid... but I am much more familiar with the cover made by Placebo sometime around 2004? which is a band I've listened to a lot
and I do prefer this cover as well...
I only remember it as a chart hit from the 80s.

Americans haven't ever cared about Kate until out-of-nowhere it was a hit. Stranger Things used Siouxsie and the Banshees' "Spellbound" too, but it still didn't become a mega-hit. I guess they just pushed "Running Up That Hill" more. It's annoying to me since I dislike Kate's music now and when I used to be a fan she was NOWHERE in the US. So I was happy she was unknown... And now she is and I just can't stand it LOL
I love that song!
