Here I am, in front of the monitor, trying to get drunk on my own, just to make my head stop thinking all the time, and there SHE is. Natasha Khan pouring all her heart into this song. Good God, please tour through Germany. I NEED this, really do! Her Wikipedia article says, she was being bullied in her school. Fucking ridiculous! She's just as beautiful as she is talented. Especially when she's singing. Damn, she makes you feel all that she's feeling. YOU're more, than a super star, Natasha!
I lost my childhood best friend to an overdose. I loved her more than anything in the world, but I could never tell her. This song reminds me viscerally of her.
I saw her a couple of weeks ago in San Francisco and when she sang this song, I thought my head was going to blow off from how much emotion she put into it. She puts on an amazing show.
Are you fucking kidding me. If no one told me, I would've been almost 100% sure this is the original studio version. Not only that it is almost like it, it is even better imo. Holly hell!
I have watched several of these videos recorded at WFUV and think this is a vintage performance Natasha has laid down, would love to see more of these sets.
I'm a big old tart at the best of times, but this was a moving performance. You can tell she was doing her best to hold back her emotions. There must have been a real Laura. Half way through I thought why the hell do so many people listen to radio 1 (UK BBC) and watch X Factor?!
Matthew Dixon Laura is/was one of her friends, famous friend and i think it was about her friends depression surrounding her career/fame. My memory could be blurry though.
If I ever have a daughter (hopefully someday) I’ll name her Prescilla because it’s one of the best, most magical videos of all time and I’ve been thinking of doing that for so long now, since I found out about Natasha.
