She owns my attention whenever she's performing. I can't look away, I can't stand interruptions. She is so rare, and it's a shame that the world is so infatuated with overproduced pop ditties when raw purity and passion like this exists.
A lot of people are saying it sounds like Famous Blue Raincoat, but I think it's even more like "A Singer Must Die". The melodies the same, and it even contains the lyric "night after night". I think this is actually supposed to be a homage to that song, or to Leonard Cohen in general.
This song has a strong Leonard Cohen feel to it, I find. I like it very much. Laura Marling is an impressive singer-songwriter, and I suspect she'll only get better with age and experience.
@iWantAHelicopter 'A creature i don't know' is the name of the album. The video you are talking about was advertising the album whilst playing this song 'night after night'. This is the full version of the song. Hope that helps
@lesze I am very glad I am not the only one who thought "famous blue raincoat" when first hearing this song. It's close to enough to the song to know she is heavily influenced by Leonard, but different enough to still make it her own.
I am pleased to hear someone else say that, about Famous Blue Raincoat. I thought it was just me! She is absolutely brilliant! Better than Leonard Cohen! And not half as bloody maudlin and miserable. xxx.
Just discovering this artist...she is amazing but I definitely think she is better and meant to sing slow paced music...much more touching and deep where u can really appreciate her voice
Even Paul Krugman is recommending this. Try "Famous Blue Raincoat" by Leonard Cohen for a similar cheerful song. I need some "Solsbury Hill" by Peter Gabriel to cheer up after this!
To compose and sing music of this sophistication at 22 is strictly amazing.
believe she was only 21 here 🤭
please check out my band wolf alice on you tube or band camp. im no laura marling but still

Simply stunning...
My heart melts whenever I hear Laura sing
swept by the depth of lyrics bursting with emotions and sadness. Craving for more!
On repeat for 5 hours, and still not bored.
I just discovered Laura Marling yesterday and this song has already skyrocketed into my top 15 favorite songs of all time. So good.
i just discovered this now
One of my favorite Laura Marling songs, beautiful guitar work and singing, dark but not dark.
I love when an artist can sound even better live

Hauntingly beautiful melody
Thank you for giving so much of yourself, Laura.
"It's four in the morning the end of December, I'm writing you now just to see if you're better" anyone?
A few years too late, but yeah. Famous Blue Raincoat! I get why you for reminded of those lines!

A little slice of genius pie.
Talent!

Pure beauty

Such a mature talent for a such a young girl.
beautiful woman, beautiful song. x
goosebumps
sudden bursts of light, it's a fate foretold
i want her to come to germany so bad!! D:
love
Ah, got it. Had a run-in with a guy who insisted on half of Laura's songs being covers. I thought it happened again. = )
New York is cold, but I like where I'm living.
100% Angel.
oh. my. god. this. is....*cry*...
@StrangestLifeKnown I agree ! I love dallas Green! It brings so many memories!
Famous Blue Raincoat?
Yes, definitely.
I am pleased to hear someone else say that, about Famous Blue Raincoat. I thought it was just me! She is absolutely brilliant! Better than Leonard Cohen! And not half as bloody maudlin and miserable. xxx.
Christopher Brookfield not better that Cohen. Cohen is something different.
Yeah... was almost expecting a "Sincerely, L. Marling" at the end.
(see what I did there?)
You are my 'keeper', my innocence 'speaker' lol
Wow.
the tuning is DADFAD, capo wherever it fits you. You can find the picking on ultimate guitar
hahaha i like your style!
2:37 ...wow.
Leonard Cohen "Famous Blue Raincoat"
So nice. I hear Nick Drake in there as well. Bob Dylan never apologised for singing like Woody Guthrie. Nor should he have.
Great to play on guitar. Wish i could sing at all nevermind on this level.
Just discovering this artist...she is amazing but I definitely think she is better and meant to sing slow paced music...much more touching and deep where u can really appreciate her voice
22 people are crazy
soooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
what guitar is she using??
reminds me of leonard cohen's famous blue raincoat.
this is a pretty standard version of NAN
This song is beauty, but what is with the zoom in this video?
Heather Fortin bruh it’s been six years since u commented and I still can’t figure that out
leonard cohen is finaly proud
Even Paul Krugman is recommending this. Try "Famous Blue Raincoat" by Leonard Cohen for a similar cheerful song. I need some "Solsbury Hill" by Peter Gabriel to cheer up after this!
Open D Minor tuning I believe.
Excuse me while I pick my jaw off the floor.....
@JustForEntertainment
^^Exactly!!! Me too! hahaha
je meurs I'm so lucky she is playing in my city soon
is it my guitar which doesen't make it sound right or is it my tuning ?
@mccaughc2 a little slice? dude she's the whole fucking pie
I love both Laura and QT and no, this is definitely not a Tarantino stuff.
Dear lover forsaken
Laura Marling is famous... not famous like Rihanna, but nobody would like her to be that famous, not even Laura herself.
I heard a voice from the mountains
Would you watch my body weaken
And wither away
Interviewer: which kind of people do you hate?
Warhol: talented people
Interviewer: why?
Warhol: because it’s so easy for them to create something.
Es para una pelicula tipo Amores perros o Babel. Iñartu le tiene q poner el ojo!
