Placebo Live Performance of 'Running Up That Hill' at Sziget Festival

Venue: Domeniul Stirbey Location: Buftea, Ilfov, Romania Date: August 10, 2014

In August 2014, during their performance at the Sziget Festival, Placebo was riding on the momentum of their sixth studio album, "Loud Like Love," which was released in September 2013. This album marked a return to a more cohesive sound for the band, characterized by an exploration of themes such as love and longing. Notably, "Running Up That Hill," a cover of Kate Bush's iconic track, has been a staple in their live repertoire, showcasing their knack for reinvention and emotional connection. By this time, Placebo had established a legacy that was characterized by their alternative rock style and a committed fan base. The 2014 Sziget performance illustrated their enduring appeal and ability to connect with crowds, all while being a significant part of a festival renowned for its diverse lineup, further elevating their status in the music scene.
