Summary

Diana Ross recently amused fans by admitting her uncertainty about the hit television series "Stranger Things." Performing her 1980 song "Upside Down" in Las Vegas, Ross playfully questioned the show's nature, asking an audience member, "What is that movie about?" The iconic song "Upside Down" has seen a resurgence, with on-demand streams jumping by 373 percent.
This contrasts with Kate Bush's reaction to her song "Running Up That Hill (A Deal with God)" being used on the same series. Bush, a self-proclaimed fan, described the show's use of her music as "touching" and a "talisman" for a character. Her song also experienced a significant boost in popularity.
"Upside Down," written by Nile Rodgers and Bernard Edwards of Chic, was a key track from Ross's 1980 album "Diana." Rodgers recalled the meticulous process of working with Ross, emphasizing a deep dive into her personality, a departure from their previous work with Sister Sledge.
