Her hair looks so nice! She's awfuly beautiful; in&out. I honestly love each song of this record. The lyrics are quite revealing each time I listen to it :)
I Just LOOOOOVE this song and the part where she sings "You crawled out of the sea and straight into my arms" i try not to sing along during the entire song but that part breaks my resolve everytime!
At times there is a hint of Dolores O'Riordan about her voice in this song... not a bad thing at all, as I'm a fan of The Cranberries too! Another visually engaging video as well. Had I not seen her performing 'New Romantic' on 'Later... with Jools Holland', I would've missed the boat on this talent altogether! Thankfully, I'm well and truly on board the good ship Marling.
well thank god thousands of other people are actually open minded..all artists have influences..tht doesnt mean they arnt good..laura marling is brilliant and very talented..
oh you crawled out of the sea straight into my arms oh you crawleddddd out of the seaaaa straight into my arms straight into my arms!!! What a lyric!! she will go donw in history. Is it just me or does the end sound very cornish and folky?? i love it!! =P
Last epp was brill:D Awwssoomm:D Love skins. cant wait till the next series, im auditoning for an extra or a main charator hopefully lol. Well i gotta wait untill they put out da details lmao!!
Laura Marling is actually PERFECTION. Not only is she absolutely gorgeous (Even gorgeous enough to pull off one of these butch pixie crops) but her music's beyond fantastic. I can't believe she's only what, 18? She's just so talented! I have nothing but praise for her!
Look down on the body that you have grown Four mountains stand around you they're not your own And light squares and bodies are all you see... Since you broke down Since I broke down Since we broke down Oh I jump into your grave and die And on my word you'll give up your whole life for me And you'll be reborn bigger and stronger And less alive... I... I... I... I... Cross your fingers hold your toes, we're all gonna die when the building blows Cross your fingers hold your toes, we're all gonna die when the building blows And the house that you were born in is crumbling at the corner Sagging skin and feet of crows, feet of crows I'll jump into your grave and die And on my words you'll give up your whole life for me And you'll be reborn bigger and stronger And less alive... I... I... I... I... ~~~~~~~~ Oh, you crawled out of the sea, straight into my arms, straight into my arms... (x3)
Works far better as a poem than song, but does make you want to hear more of that voice. More power to the follow up is what I say, but I know nothing.
Great song... I especially like that you attach Crawled out of the Sea at the end... it goes great together. The part where her hands are coming off in pieces, at least in the psychology I've studied, it means getting(or fear of getting) less and less actionable or able in the world. Children with neglectful mothers often draw their mothers without hands... just as ineffectual stubs. The best metaphors Laura! Thank you.
crawled out of the sea straight into my arms... i'll probably never ever forget that one line. and i think she looks fine with short hair, what would you say if she all of the sudden needed chemo?
she was never in noah & the whale, she just adds backing vocals to make the songs sound alot better but when they tour they get lillie flynn to do it, she has also done backing for mumford and sons, jay jay pistolet, mystery jets and more
I love your music. Keep doing what you seem to do best! But don't let the music engulf you too much - otherwise you'll get bored of it... And none of us want that! Good luck, honey! John De Hara x
yeah totally used to have electric landlady lp loved it am i right in thinking kiirsty died young such a sad waste of a wonderfull singer i beleive it was a car crash i may be wrong though
