Kate Bush not Clannad?

I have listened to alot of Kate's earlier stuff and, given that Irish band Clannad's Celtic tones in their music is very evident and the story/legend is English, I thought that Kate's musical sounds would suit the show better?

Not her hit singles and high-pitched singing, but her more gentle tunes, and who knows what she could have created for the show's themes?

Oh England My Lionheart? I love the Legend album by Clannad which is the Robin of Sherwood soundtrack but am now imagining what the genius of Kate Bush could have brought to it, maybe even a collaboration with Peter Gabriel or Pink Floyd?

Yes, a great opportunity missed...

The show itself includes some vague Celtic mystical themes, doesn't it?
