"The Man with the Child in His Eyes" is a song by Kate Bush. It is the fifth track on her debut album "The Kick Inside" and was released as her second single. Bush wrote and recorded it when she was 16. She has stated how recording with a large orchestra at that age terrified her. [ [http://gaffa.org/cloud/music/the_man_with_the_child_in_his_eyes.html Cloudbusting / Music / The Man With The Child In His Eyes ] ] The song was Bush's second chart single in the United Kingdom where it reached number six in the summer of 1978. In the United States it became her first chart single where it peaked at number 85 on the Billboard Hot 100 in the winter of 1979.

The single version slightly differs from the album version. On the single, the song opens with the phrase “he’s here!” echoing, an effect added after the album was released.

Bush performed this song in her one appearance on "Saturday Night Live", singing on a piano being played by Paul Shaffer.

Australian singer and songwriter Tina Arena recorded the song in 2007 for her album "Songs of Love & Loss".
