Bat For Lashes - Laura (Official Music Video) 

My wife Laura died September from a 6 week battle with cancer. She was 36 and left behind myself and two beautiful children. She was more than a superstar x

My name is Laura. I started to cry when she sang "Laura you're more than a superstar". I felt so down today. This song gives me hope.

These words are so perfect for my daughter Laura, sadly left us on 13/2/22 forever heartbroken! Forever beautiful and forever 36💔

I did an analysis of the lyrics of this song for a university assignment. I'm now about to graduate. This song is literally part of my progress in life. Thank you for its creation.

as a Laura i´m thankful and grateful for this song.

Only found this beauty of a song watching Wentworth ..... the tragic deaths of both bea and Debbie are scored on my heart forever , although only fiction I’m deeply moved INCREDIBLY POWERFUL ♥️ matches this song perfectly ♥️

i listened to this song a lot when i was homeless from hurricane sandy. i was 14-15 at the time, im now 25. i went through a lot of shit like suicidal thoughts, my family splitting up, severe depression and anxiety. i attempted suicide march of 2013, but this song stopped me in my tracks and made me realize i needed help.

You're the train that crashed my heart you're the glitter in the dark...

this song always makes me cry, it's like she's talking to me and she sings all the words I've ever wished to hear from someone

This song never gets old. Fucking masterpiece.

I'm speechless, this is a masterpiece...

I've just realized Natasha's videos always end with hugs. Love it!

Thank you Wentworth Prison for introducing me too this amazing piece of music. Absolutely beautiful

She is full of art

Rest In Peace Bea Smith 💔☹️ forever loved by Wentworth

I love this song so much! Although my best friend and big sister was named Laura. She passed of cancer when I was a teenager. Our mother and I by her side, until she breathed her last breath.. Listening to this song is like talking about her and her death. Some days I can listen/speak and smile. Other days it's a good way to make myself weep. Beautiful song though! And she was a beautiful person. Laura you're more than a super star. ❤️❤️❤️

"You'll be famous for longer than them, your name is tattooed on every boys skin-- ooo-oh Laura you're more than a superstar."

RIP Bea Smith. we love you to the moon and back.

The french horns at the end of the chorus are sublime. So pure.

I love Bat for Lashes music. She is a millennial creative music artist with an eighties sensibility, mixed with fantasy,empathy, hope, and optimism.

bea smith. 💔

Bea had such a horrible life. Her dad was an alcoholic, she got married when she was young to escape, and her daughter, the only thing she had, died. The only other happiness in her life was Allie, but she thought she was dead too. Bea was all alone.

This song is gorgeous. Them performing in an empty theatre made everything feel a little bit more emotional than it already was. Good job :)

WE LOVE YOU QUEEN BEA👑🐝

My great uncle is the drag queen in this. So proud of you uncle vin!!

BEA 😓 I still think about you I love you ❤️😘 BEA SMITH for ever in my heart

Most simple seductive beautiful song in the world. My sister is called Laura and she is an absolute superstar, she helped me through my abuse and trauma. She was there when no one else was. Because of her she gave me the strength to write a book about my childhood and selfpublish and put it out there!

The depth of emotion and sub-text is so lovely. I used to skip this song on the album but then I said, "Why the hell not. It's been 4 years. just give it a try." Now, I can't get the damn song out of my mind. I whistle it. I hum it. I know the lyrics. I love this song.

I saw Natasha Khan when I walking down the street on Laugarvegur in Reykjavík. She was in tourist gear and smiling. She was with Jonsi from Sigur Rós. I was like oh oh its Bat for lashes but I didn´t. I kept it cool and walked past her. She was so cute

She fought hard against the record company to have just a couple of instruments in this song... she was right.

As a Progressive rock musician I am rarely moved by music. She has always delivered beautiful, poignant art.

This has to be one of my most favourite music videos of all time. Haunting song, wonderfully shot and so powerful. The three characters in this video all represent something very poignant to me. Really hits hard, straight to the heart.

When i seen this song on Wentworth I cried for bea so hard

Musical perfection. Why hasn't this been watched 100million times by now?

Bea Smith ♥

This song is so deep that Adele is rolling around the suggested videos.

Ughhhh. The feels.

This is one of the most beautiful piano songs i've ever heard.. I can feel the sadness and nostalgia on every note.

For a girl with low self confidence, this really boosted it :}

Natasha you're more than an artist

I just can't stop listening to it. My soul is renewed every time that I do.

"They loved each other, to the moon and back" ❤️

Goosebumps. This took me somewhere in a distant place as she whispered the most beautiful words onto my ears....reaching the deepest part in my soul. Magnificent song.

Sirus commercial brought me back to how much I would listen for Bat for Lashes. I would listen to this so much back than and now 2024 ans it still hits for me.

This is one of the most incredible songs I've ever heard!

I usually hate sad songs (because they make me sad) but I always come back to this one.

I can’t get past the first 10 seconds without crying. And its not just tears its a sob. I feel like she was my mum or something. I love you to the moon and back. 🥀

Fun fact: This song is dedicated to Little Nell (or Laura Campbell) who's famous for playing Columbia in The Rocky Horror Picture Show, hence "and in this horror show I've got to tell you so, oh Laura, your more then a superstar".

Saw her last night opening for Depeche Mode in Montreal. She is really good. Fans didn't appreciate her much. I blame the acoustics. She truly has a beautiful voice.

RIP to our Queen Bea Smith ❤️❤️😭😪

i don't know why but i'm crying

When she said "don't cry" I was already sobbing rip Bea smith forever in ma heart

What a beautiful song with such a poignant narrative. This is music showing its ability to be extremely moving and reach deep into the soul.

This is the prettiest song I have heard in a long time.

A friend of mine died recently and this came on (insert whatever media one uses) and I cried all the way down the A1 and it oddly made me feel better. Thank you emotionally charged songs that make us confront our feelings in inappropriate places x

I just heard the piano part (transposed to a higher pitch) used in another song and it's taken me ages to remember where it came from - you know when you hear the echo of a song you love and can't place it or recall it ... maddening - and i'm so glad i remembered - what a heart turning, gut churning, beautiful song, a masterpiece.

This song is beautiful. Her voice is crazy beautiful. This is just perfection

Bea’s more than a superstar ❤️😢

I cry everytime I listen to this song

Ive been in a dark place for a while and my bestfriend laura is who keeps me goin she motivates me to do better and to feel better in myself even when she is not feeling great herself she is a blessin and defo more than a superstar i love her so much ive never had a friend like her she is a one in a million i feel so lucky and the comments on here are so nice and lauras all over yiur more than superstars with us or not xx

It really feels like shes singing to me I started to tear up at the part she says "Oooh Laura youre more than a superstar" 🥹

Wentworth Bea 😭😭😭😭

Какая же она МОЛОДЕЦ! О ней я узнала в далёком 2007-м году... Вот надо же... Нашла тот первый альбом в сети, спустя девять лет... И узнала ту песню, которую слушала тогда по радио, семь лет назад... Наташа, ты должна знать, что ты - КРАСАВИЦА и НАСТОЯЩИЙ ТАЛАНТ!!! Умница, золотое сердце, успехов тебе всегда и во всём, любви, вдохновения... ЛЮБЛЮ!!!

this is one of the most beautiful heartbreaking songs.

learned this song from watching Wentworth on Netflix. Great song & I'm surprised that hasn't gotten popularity. Well, I love this gem & won't lose it.

I'm not sure what is the most gorgeous thing about Natasha. Whether it's her talent, her voice, her eyes, her lips/mouth, her hair, or something else entirely. Either way, she is stunningly gorgeous! I love this so much! It is so dark and so haunting. And top marks for whoever dreamed up this vid. It works almost too perfectly. Just superb... \m/ (:o)

I can't stop coming back to this, it's my go to song after a tough week.

Gives me goosebumps everywhere and every time. I am in love with this amazing price of art.

I can picture this in David Bowie's voice. I would have loved to hear him make a cover of this beautiful song.

QUEEN Bea , you were more than a superstar 💔💔

I just saw 'The Glass Menagerie' by Tennesse Williams and I could swear that this song was written about the play's tragic character, also called Laura, who was scorned by the world, spends all her time withdrawn from other people. She has been 'left behind' and lives in her own ethereal world, 'a pale blue dream', frequently being referred to as 'Blue Roses'. In the play she's 'the last unicorn' in a world of horses and only her beloved brother recognises her as such. This song sounds like it's being told from his perspective, conveying all his sadness for Laura's insular and enigmatic ways. I was disbelief to find that this wasn't in fact Natasha's inspiration for this song. Both pieces of art make me cry lol.

Between your lyrics and what the emotions this video captures - I am in aw. Thank you so very much.

This is such a beautiful, perfect song

The show bout to come back on in I still miss you so much I love you so much Queen 👑 Bea I’m still crying I love you Queen Bea 😥😥😓😓😢😢😔😣😞

Excellent song choice for Wentworth S5 E1 :(

This song is dedicated to Laura Elizabeth Campbell who is good friends with Natasha Khan. Why else would Natasha make a direct reference to RHPS via "In this 'horror show'"? Columbia's awesome.

rip queen bea smith :( :(

I'm obsessed with this song maybe a little more obsessed because my names in it 😂💕🙌☺️

The old man in this video is so powerful. Thank you for this song and video. I love it.

The inherent beauty within both the song and video never fails to floor me! I find it hard to believe how human beings can dig so far into the very depths of my soul with such relatively simple sound and vision. So moving! Superb stuff, Natasha... \m/ (:o)

I just can't believe it's been 8 years. Feels like this came out yesterday. So beautiful.

bea smith :(

Wentworth brought me here. They played this when Bea Smith died " watch your mom for us Deb"

I always feel like I misinterpret this video but it brings me to tears every time regardless.

Bea smith :( 🌹

I LOVE THIS!! it makes you feel like she's hugging u.

rest in peace bea i love you to the moon and back

My name is Laura and this song touched my soul deeply ❤❤❤

You say that they've all left you behind Your heart broke when the party died Drape your arms around me and softly say "Can we dance upon the tables again?" When your smile is so wide and your heels are so high You can't cry Get your glad rags on and let's sing along To that lonely song You're the train that crashed my heart You're the glitter in the dark Ooh, Laura, you're more than a superstar And in this horror show I've got to tell you so Ooh, Laura, you're more than a superstar You say that you're stuck in a pale blue dream And your tears feel hot on my bed sheets Drape your arms around me and softly say "Can we dance upon the tables again?" When your smile is so wide and your heels are so high You can't cry Get your glad rags on and let's sing along To that lonely song You're the train that crashed my heart You're the glitter in the dark Ooh, Laura, you're more than a superstar You'll be famous for longer than them Your name is tattooed on every boy's skin Ooh, Laura, you're more than a superstar Ooh, ooh Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh Ooh, ooh You're the train that crashed my heart You're the glitter in the dark Ooh, Laura, you're more than a superstar And in this old horror show I've got to let you know Ooh, Laura, you're more than a superstar You're more than a superstar

wow...a beautiful fragile song...

This woman is so exotic, intriguing and very naturally beautiful, both inside and out. The sounds being emitted from her vocal chords.......Wow!!! So damn talented and she should be right up there with the very best and she shouldn't be so underrated. She deserves much more musical attention. I first heard of her years ago and i became hooked immediately. I love her strong and clear, slightly smoky and husky voice. I love all her vocals and her sometimes dark musical vocals/sounds. Thank you for sharing and sending peace, light and positivity to all.

I feel like this song is about the contempt we find in our adult lives, settling for whats easy instead of following the dream we imagined when we were younger. The isolation we feel even when being recognized because we are not happy with the end result of love and life.

I came here from Wentworth months or even a year ago. But now.. I lost my best friend, my brother from another mother, and im in the feels rn and this song is taking my feelers to a whole 'nother level. Thank you Bat for Lashes for such an amazing song 💜

We drove north to a place we'd never been The full moon ahead over the golden hill The sun setting behind like we'd never seen Not knowing how life, for us, would charge bill we changed our paths in a moment of time A rush that would steal more than just hours With the crisp moon shinning that sun ray fine As we stood then walked on Capricorn's line I realised then as you played me this song It was her heart in tune with ours And in mine beating where you belong Somehow you knew, 6 years, id be wrong... Im there again with the sound of her Calling moon and moon to help me here But the echo fades and no ones there, And no ones there, for my pain to bare. Lets get on our knees and with me pray "Oooh Laura" we're here, and with you we'll stay Coz its just for our memories that lets us live through the days. Oh how i wish sometimes we could go north again Further this time than we've ever been but that golden moon has another plan For this joy fool hearted simple man... june 6th 2013 By GPvM-R

RIP Queen Bea. The show isn't the same without you, you deserve better. I love you to the moon and back
