Hounds of Love is the fifth studio album by the English singer Kate Bush, released by EMI Records on 16 September 1985. It was a commercial success and marked a return to the public eye for Bush after the relatively poor sales of her previous album The Dreaming. It was Bush's second album to top the UK Albums Chart and her best-selling studio album,having been certified double platinum for 600,000 sales in the UK,and by 1998 it had sold 1.1 million copies worldwide. In the US, it reached the top 40 on the Billboard 200. The album's lead single, "Running Up That Hill", became one of Bush's biggest hits, and it produced three further successful singles, "Cloudbusting", "Hounds of Love", and "The Big Sky", all taken from the album's first side. The second side forms a concept album about a person drifting alone in the sea at night.
