Laura I go back to this all the time. I feel in some ways guilty as a man to say each single word you express here resonates so deeply. I know you want your art to be uniquely feminine and I appreciate you even more for that. But you speak so eloquently of the dance of human connections through romance, dynamics, loss, and self needs. The most human expression I have ever heard. Tears every time.
I remember writing my dissertation to this playing on repeat in the background, sometimes taking breaks to just watch the video. It still grips me completely
I can't imagine how so much hard work was put into the making of this masterpiece and the elaboration of the idea from day one. I just love your voice and love everything about this clip. I share this song with every person I deeply love. So mesmerizing!
I agree ^ Laura Marling, despite being younger than a lot of other female artists, and even in this scene of modern folk, surrounded by so many amazing artists, has maturity far beyond her years. She makes these other artists look like children.
My first time hearing this. Stunned really. Where has this music been all my life? Joni Mitchell meets Led Zeppelin meets Nick Drake meets Tim Hardin meets Jeff Buckley...and on and on.
I totally understand how you feel. Last time I saw her it was 1,5 years ago. The whole audience was silent when she played... constantly. Amazing. I cried during Salinas, it was so beautiful I couldn't handle it.
Wow. That was awesome. Had me in tears at one point. Beautiful visuals and music. Pulled me in and held my attention throughout. Perfectly shot & edited. A feast for my eyes, ears, and emotions. For some reason it provokes memories - both happy & sad. Enjoyable all the way around. Took me on a little ride, through my own mind, while yet somehow still engaged in watching and listening to the video. Thank you.
Hey, at least she is getting more recognition thank to Mumford & Sons popularity, that's how I found and fell in love with her. She's a brilliant songwriter and a lovely singer, she's not more popular because she'd be classified as "slit your wrist" music, an actual quote from a friend, but then most people are slaves to the radio/club/pop music, most of which is "stab my eardrums" (my quote) music. I love the internet for bringing me GOOD music :)
Very lovely with a perfect soundtrack For those of us who own Laura Marling records, this is a brilliant visual companion. Great songwriter and player, fantastic voice for one so young and her music is treasured by those who love it.
I have a poetry assignment due on Monday, and I just had an idea for a sonnet, marked by other inspiration, of course. When I finished it, this video finished as well. I guess I must thank Laura Marling for her beautiful, liberating music.
My ranking for greatest female artist as a singer, composer, poet and musician: Joni Mitchell spent 30 lonely years on the throne. Now that I discovered Laura I think Joni will will be happily share the throne enjoying Lauras company.
I disagree about most of the mumford counterpart comments. I believe most musicians whether it be folk , rock ,rap , true alternative, have a desire to hit fame and wealth. The music industry can poison true artists in my opinion. The glory of reaching the majority is tempting. That does not take any talent away from Marcus Mumford and his group. They just appeal to a larger audience. Put it this way , even if a man loved Laura's music he would hesitate to play it around anyone who he might think would consider it a feminine taste. Its easier to play a mans song for the majority of men. I have no shame in saying this is absolute poetic freedom. Laura Marling has a unique talent. Very , Very underrated. I hope for the sake of music she stays under the radar and continues to search that beautiful mind for lyrical clarity. She will go down in history as a true folk, musical legend. Sooner or later. AMAZING TALENT !
Here goes I feel this is reply to marcus mumford.... It could not be but I feel it is... It is a Wonderful strong piece and would not of found Laura without knowing MM... They dated and they broke up...I think marcus did her wrong according to the gossip rags... They were friends from the folk scene in London...Laura was /is famous in the UK and MM formed they just took off . ... Laura has since moved to state side to LA....marcus has since married actress Carey Mulligan bought a 2 million dollar farm in the south of England ... I love them all ....they are friends and spent a lot of time together ...they were young sewing their oats and now they are making their way in this journey of life! Best of luck to Laura and MM sons hope your paths cross again...
It boggles my mind that Mumford and Sons were her backing band and they are more famous than her. Seriously she is so under rated and I finally think this album is gonna be her breakthrough album so others can discover how amazing she is. Thator maybe she had an oppourtunity to be famous and chose not to. Maybe it is the latter. But people need to hear her more.
fame and infamy aren't all they are cracked up to be, at least I don't think they are. The chase, the challenge, the road to the top is often the essential and admirable place to see someone play
the first four songs on the album sound slightly similar because apparently they signify a relationship laura was in & the rest of the album is different because it's about the breakup, becoming stronger and moving on etc.
Once of my friends said she loved Laura Marling. I asked her what her favorite album was. She said “Alas I Can’t Swim”. Well personally, my favorite album is A Creature I Am Not Aware Of (though I Talk Because I Am Able To is a close second.) And I can’t wait to get I Was A Bird Once on Tuesday.
How have I only just heard this?!? This is a masterpiece!

"I will not be a victim of romance" -- that part of lyric just got me,man!

Fell in love with this all those years ago and seeing it again I’m in awe.
I can't imagine how so much hard work was put into the making of this masterpiece and the elaboration of the idea from day one. I just love your voice and love everything about this clip. I share this song with every person I deeply love. So mesmerizing!
I WISH THEY WOULD.
NOW I WOULD.

oh to be a 12 year old kid in 50 years discovering this album in their parent's attic, swept up into the magic of (the now classic) Laura Marling
I don‘t believe you can get much closer to perfection than “You Know“...
❤️⭐❤️

This is one of the most beautiful and powerful things I have ever heard and watched.
Thank you.
i never wanted this to end
This film just draws me back again and again... spellbinding
Laura that was beautiful. I think I need a cry.
Как же я люблю всё это 🖤
Лора, ты такая настоящая! ✨
My first time hearing this. Stunned really. Where has this music been all my life? Joni Mitchell meets Led Zeppelin meets Nick Drake meets Tim Hardin meets Jeff Buckley...and on and on.
"Today I will feel something other than regret
Pass me a glass and a half-smoked cigarette
I've damned near got no dignity left"
That was so incredibly beautiful. Tear inducing.
I totally understand how you feel. Last time I saw her it was 1,5 years ago. The whole audience was silent when she played... constantly. Amazing. I cried during Salinas, it was so beautiful I couldn't handle it.
YUIPB
Don't ever stop producing Laura.

A truly epic audio and visual journey.

She's such an incredible artist. I'm seeing her tonight. I'm freaking out. I might cry. She's like my god.
No words.... Breathe... Incredible.
Pure talent. Period. She is meant to do this.
This video/film was epic. I'm speechless, her new album is blowing my mind. This was absolutely wonderful.
Laura Marling is great already...I don't know everyone keeps saying she'll be great one day.

This is absolutely entrancing, I would be beside myself to awake to this each day!
Still the best video on RUclips!
Probably the best short film/music video I've ever seen. So much symbolism. Oy.
This song speaks directly to my soul
I have a poetry assignment due on Monday, and I just had an idea for a sonnet, marked by other inspiration, of course. When I finished it, this video finished as well. I guess I must thank Laura Marling for her beautiful, liberating music.
So proud of Laura and all she's achieved! This album is going to be incredible...
Just... incredible. Mind is blown.

My ranking for greatest female artist as a singer, composer, poet and musician: Joni Mitchell spent 30 lonely years on the throne. Now that I discovered Laura I think Joni will will be happily share the throne enjoying Lauras company.

This makes me want to sit in my lounge room with the lights off, drinking red wine and absorb. Bliss
Seeing her the day her album comes out :)
01:05: Part 1, Take The Night Off. 04:54: Part 2, I Was An Eagle. 09:25: Part 3, You Know. 12:16: Part 4, Breathe. 16:50: Credits
This song is not nearly long enough 😘
I understand your point, maybe it's just not everyone's purpose to be famous...success has nothing to do with fame in my opinion. Cheers!
One of most wonderful things i've seen lately, thanks Laura & team ;)
Absolutely stunning! Greatest achievement yet - echoes of Floyd and George Harrison - amazing!
she's amazing.
so good.
insolite, magique et musique extraordinaire
I dont care where you've gone. I care where you go!
Album is in the mail, cant wait for it to arrive! :)

4:50 - Magritte, "The Lovers".
future classic!
Wow... an unexpected pleasure.
Jimmy Page sent me here (in a roundabout way through Mojo Magazine).
Brilliant. I don't even know what else to say. You wouldn't happen to have the lyrics posted somewhere... ?
the first four songs on the album sound slightly similar because apparently they signify a relationship laura was in & the rest of the album is different because it's about the breakup, becoming stronger and moving on etc.
Best of her generation
Once of my friends said she loved Laura Marling.
