“Hounds of Love” is a song written and performed by English singer Kate Bush. It is the title track and the third single from her hit album by the same name. It was released on 24 February 1986 and reached a peak of No. 18 on the UK Singles Chart on 2 May.
The song is about being afraid to fall in love; the lyrics compare this feeling to being chased by a pack of hounds, with no control over the situation. The versions worldwide differ slightly: the US single mix included an additional chorus just after the second chorus. The words “it’s in the trees, it’s coming!” heard at the beginning of the track are sampled from the British 1957 horror film Night of the Demon and are mouthed by an actor from the film, Reginald Beckwith.
The music video for the song was created and directed by Bush herself. It was inspired by Alfred Hitchcock’s thriller film The 39 Steps (1935) and a Hitchcock lookalike also features in the video (a nod to the director’s famous cameo appearances in his movies).
