Kate Bush had never experienced the type of success she's seeing right now thanks to Netflix's Stranger Things.

The use of her song "Running Up That Hill (A Deal with God)" in the series has shot it up the charts in a way it didn't even when the song was released in 1985!


In fact, it's the oldest song to EVER reach No. 1 on Billboard's streaming charts earning 29 million streams in the week from June 3-9.

It's Bush's first song to hit No. 1 on the streaming charts, coming in her first appearance on the list, which began in 2013.

The song debuted at No. 6 on the June 11 chart with 17.5 million streams following its appearance on Stranger Things, which premiered June 3.
