Singer Kate Bush Thanks Fans For Her 22 Sold-Out London Concerts

English singer-songwriter Kate Bush, 56, has finished her 22 sold-out concerts in London's Hammersmith Apollo and has wrote a heartfelt letter on her website to thank fans for their support of her first proper live show in 35 years.

"It was one of the most extraordinary experiences of my life. I loved the whole process," Bush wrote. "Particularly putting the band, the chorus and the team together and watching it all evolve. It really was the ultimate combination of talent and artists, both from the music business and the theatre world. I never expected everyone in the team to be so lovely and we all grew very close. We became a family and I really miss them all terribly."

The Before the Dawn concert's gained such traction that the singer gained the Top 50 of the British album charts. In 1978 the Singer -then 19-years-old- topped the UK Singles Chart for four weeks for her single "Wuthering Heights." She became the first woman to have a UK No. 1 with a self-written song.

"I was really delighted that the shows were received so positively and so warmly but the really unexpected part of it all was the audiences," penned Bush. "Audiences that you could only ever dream of. One of the main reasons for wanting to perform live again was to have contact with that audience. They took my breath away."

"Every single night they were so behind us," Bush continued. "You could feel their support from the minute we walked on stage. I just never imagined it would be possible to connect with an audience on such a powerful and intimate level; to feel such, well quite frankly, love. It was like this at every single show."

The songwriter has collaborated with numerous artists such as Prince on "Why Should I Love You?" as well as the 1996 song, "My Computer" from the artist's album Emancipation.
