"Them Heavy People" is a song written and recorded by Kate Bush, from her debut album "The Kick Inside". It was issued as a single in Japan, its only release worldwide as an A-side.

The song is about religion, and the teachings of Jesus, Gurdjieff, or whomever one believes in, and vehicles that enable people to unleash powers within themselves.

A Seiko logo appears on the insert's back side, which makes it Bush's only commercial release featuring any kind of product endorsement.

A live recording of this song was the lead track on the "On Stage" EP which reached number 10 in the UK singles chart in 1979. Bush performed "Them Heavy People" on several TV programmes including her only appearance on "Saturday Night Live" in the USA.
