Bat For Lashes 'The Haunted Man' + 'Laura'

[Maximo Mark]

Natasha Khan, AKA Bat For Lashes, today released single 'Laura', the lead single from her third album 'The Haunted Man', out in October.

It's far too early to pronounce it single of the year or even her best song but I haven't found a song so great so instantly for a long long time. It's utterly beautiful.

I was just about to post this after hearing it on BBC Radio 6 Music.

Listening to the track and the lyrics I'm going to put 2+2 together and assume it's a tribute to the late proto female singer songwriter cult legend whom was posthumously inducted into the Rock N' Roll Hall of Fame in 2012 .... Laura Nyro.

I have to agree with Mark the track is beautiful and very haunting, I didn't think she outdo Daniel, Laura is a top notch track, it was pretty instant with me as well, looking forward to her new album.
