One of my favorite songs from The Haunted Man. So glad this is getting a video. Natasha Khan's Pearl reminds me of Annie Lennox's alter-ego from the Savage era - the blonde vamp she portrayed in I Need A Man, You Have Placed A Chill In My Heart and other videos. Music is storytelling and being able to play different roles and give a different persona to a song is part of being an artist. Glad Khan is unafraid to explore this.
"And inside his mouth, I lick the blood..." "Into a brave new world, you're only one second away" "Take my hand and we'll outrun time!" Such lush lyrics.
From inside his mouth I licked the blood While he is roaring and biting I wash off the mud Cause the tempest is out to wrestle the wild Stop charging my darling, come closer be quiet Cause where you see a wall, I see a door Set up with no map, and turn off your torch Where you see a wall, I see a door You'll get through, you'll be home You'll be home From inside his mouth I lick the scars The woodland believes, marking a path And if you just rest your head stop repeating the charge You'll know that this time I’ll turn all the locks Cause where you see a wall, I see a door Set up with no map, and turn off your torch Cause where you see a wall, I see a door You'll get through, you'll be home You'll be home Just sit still. Does it hurt? Does it hurt? Just sit still. Does it hurt? Does it hurt? Just sit still. Does it hurt? Does it hurt? Just sit still. Does it hurt? Does it hurt?
But from what it looks like, they are crashing Laura's party (there's a banner in the party with Laura's name). My theory is after all the partygoers leave, including Pearl and her Haunted Man, Laura feels sad and lonely.
I love how in the end, she is literally representing lyrics in "Marilyn": "Holding you, I'm touching a star / Turning into a Marilyn / Leaning out of your big car." What I LOVE about Bat for Lashes is how intricate and deliberate the images in these music videos are.
I'm in love with this video. Natasha is STRONG,oh Natasha is so strong and she wants to FIGHT for the one she loves,she wants to make her man secure and certain about their relationship.She's not anymore the girl she was in the past.Pearl, Natasha, Bat For Lashes, essentially they're the same person and that's so charming.WHERE YOU SEE A WALL I SEE A DOOR, what a magnificent expression, smile smile and be happy. Not only about love, but about your entire life, this will resolve all the problems.
A bad trip case? ;) Anyway, that's my favorite song off the album and I'm glad it's a single... Natasha is stunningly beautiful, as always and I love the weirdness of her videos, they're so dreamy... What a refreshing artist.
Fantastic theory. This is exactly the kind of story thread and mythology that I know Natasha built up on the Two Suns album. It's all through Two Suns. It's what good fiction authors do. The songs are like pieces of a puzzle. I'm discovering the greatness of Bat For Lashes all the time.
I'm so late to the game. Wish I had known about her music before. I could have had a chance to see her on tour too :( but at least I have all three albums, so I'm content with that. This album though is amazing! Best buy I've made in ages :D
Stephen Jeter Probably because the version on the album is a longer and different edit! I think this one is by far superior. Such a fun one to revisit.
I still can't get over how good this version of the song is! So amazing. I wanna know if it was a version she recorded, but scrapped in favor of the album cut, or how exactly it came about! Brilliant whatever the case. (Still waiting for iTunes to upload the video for purchase so I can have this version on my iPod!)
This is probably the single. Often times they will re-produce the single track for radio play and the video. Perfect example is Dammit by Blink 182. The radio version has a snare drum in the intro, album doesn't.
And when you think fantastic artists have officially gone extinct, you hear a Bat For Lashes track and all faith is restored.
Could use some of that right about now
The world can't end today, I have to watch this at least 1000 more times before!!!
This version is better than the album version imo
way better indeed! on the album I hardly noticed the track and here (and with the vid) it absolutely picked my interest.
Both r special tbh.
She has an amazing voice. Could listen to her songs all day! She needs more recognition! Love Bat for Lashes...
She is a pearl. Love her lots!
I love the bass in this song!

I miss the era of good music videos...
What kind of greatness ... Seriously
This version of the song sounds so much better!! if only all the album had this kind of production.
People should of listen Natasha's music more often, this is Awesome!
Bat For Lashes is simply awesome. Enough said.
Very nice atmosphere, both visually and sonically. And oh gosh, that actor is so handsome!
This song is just so uplifting.
this song is so magical, lots of emotions - i really love this artist since the beginning
"And inside his mouth, I lick the blood..." "Into a brave new world, you're only one second away" "Take my hand and we'll outrun time!" Such lush lyrics.
You'll grt through you'll be home!
Puff Puff Pass she is a fantastic lyricist, isn’t she? Love her!
Only just unlocked my final love of music door- Bat For Lashes.
my favorite song of bat for lashes
Just saw her concert last night with no idea who bat for lashes were. Freaking awesome performance and amazing singer!!!Instant fan!!!
What a great song! Cool video also. Natasha is so charming!
BEST OF 2013, #1 BEST SONG, #1 BEST VIDEO & #1 BEST ALBUM 'THE HAUNTED MAN' !!!
From inside his mouth I licked the blood
While he is roaring and biting I wash off the mud
Cause the tempest is out to wrestle the wild
Stop charging my darling, come closer be quiet
Cause where you see a wall, I see a door
Set up with no map, and turn off your torch
Where you see a wall, I see a door
You'll get through, you'll be home
You'll be home
From inside his mouth I lick the scars
The woodland believes, marking a path
And if you just rest your head stop repeating the charge
You'll know that this time I’ll turn all the locks
Cause where you see a wall, I see a door
Set up with no map, and turn off your torch
Cause where you see a wall, I see a door
You'll get through, you'll be home
You'll be home
Just sit still. Does it hurt?
Does it hurt?
Just sit still. Does it hurt?
Does it hurt?
Just sit still. Does it hurt?
Does it hurt?
Just sit still. Does it hurt?
Does it hurt?
Album of 2012 for me, still can't stop listening to it in Feb 2013.
Stop being so awesome....she is amazing
Tu es une vraie artiste. Plus je découvre, plus j'aime. Merci à toi pour tes vibrations
still love her!
Shes so gorgeous! Natasha I love youu! ♥♥
Perfect. Where you see a wall, doll, I see a door.
Keen observation - and probably a correct one. Thanks, that puts the album in a new perspective.
she's amazing so as the album!
Gosh, she is amazing!
seriously my favorite song by them
Jameson Holbrook she’s a solo artist (aka Natasha Khan) ✌🏻
I LOOOVE THIS SONG!
Natasha is just the best.
sooo dreeammmyyy... love this track more and more every time i hear it.
But from what it looks like, they are crashing Laura's party (there's a banner in the party with Laura's name). My theory is after all the partygoers leave, including Pearl and her Haunted Man, Laura feels sad and lonely.
Favorite videoclip ever.
I love how in the end, she is literally representing lyrics in "Marilyn": "Holding you, I'm touching a star / Turning into a Marilyn / Leaning out of your big car."
What I LOVE about Bat for Lashes is how intricate and deliberate the images in these music videos are.
I cannot stop repeating the intro. That beat T.T Sooo good. And I don't know if it's me but the song sounds kind of dreamy like Pearl's Dream.
love love love this song, one of the strongest on the album
Hermosa, many hugs and love from Argentina
beautiful
Absolutely amazing! It soothes me!!
the song sounds so heavenly in my ears
April 2013, still album of the year.. fighting with the new Bowie album,

Who cares? Its a brilliant song and that's all i need.
NATASHA, YOU GODDESS!
Just sit still, does it hurt? does it hurt?
Love that line! :)
I'm in love with this video.

Powerful voice with a perfect video !
This video is so touching. A kick in the teeth for the so called "emotive Indie party scene".
A bad trip case? ;)
Anyway, that's my favorite song off the album and I'm glad it's a single... Natasha is stunningly beautiful, as always and I love the weirdness of her videos, they're so dreamy... What a refreshing artist.
So amazing! Can't say enough about how happy I am to see Pearl again and this remixed version kicks ass!!!!
Love always x
i get so nostalgic, i remember when i was younger and watched this in mtv
Essa música é foda! Saudade do meu primo que me apresentou ela enquanto varávamos uma noitada de boa música ...
love it SO MUCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Pearl! my favorite song of this new album :)
Makes me think of 80s and better times.
this song reminds myself, three years ago aprox, thinking if my life would change... nothing has changed but this song is a machine time
I love this 3
amazing as always!!!
She's backkkk. :)
Fantastic theory. This is exactly the kind of story thread and mythology that I know Natasha built up on the Two Suns album. It's all through Two Suns. It's what good fiction authors do. The songs are like pieces of a puzzle. I'm discovering the greatness of Bat For Lashes all the time.
You are unapologetically talented.
have loved this band for a while now...first heard them as an indi act in, oh, 05...just an amazing sound. will deff. check out the doc.
She is amazing live! I am going to be seeing her in September. She's opening for Depeche Mode's tour.
TOTALLY AGREED.
the ending is so "cloudbusting", i love it
this guy is weirdly unbelievably attractive
Love.
what talent....
Well put!
Most underrated album of 2012.
Sweet Harry
You changed my life. Just wanted to let you know.
John, I saw her at the Fonda in Hollywood last Tuesday. She freakin killed it!!!
To me this is about trying to love someone with severe depression who won't get help or the help isn't helping
modern day Hounds of Love such a wonderful album
we love bat for lashes.
Love this
One of the first tunes i downloaded on my Ipod Touch. Seriously!.......... ‼️💯🤍🐦
I'm so late to the game. Wish I had known about her music before. I could have had a chance to see her on tour too :( but at least I have all three albums, so I'm content with that. This album though is amazing! Best buy I've made in ages :D
I LOVE IT!
Looks like they just posted it. Woo! Love this song!
Ms. Natasha Khan
youll get through, youll be home
I just listened the song because of Harry omg
Wow! I never gave this song a chance and would always skip over it. BIGGEST mistake I have ever made.
Stephen Jeter Probably because the version on the album is a longer and different edit! I think this one is by far superior. Such a fun one to revisit.
absolutely same here - this is really a way better version than on the album.
you're still the center of the universe
i'm addicted to the haunted man album, it's very beautiful so is her 2 other albums!
OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YESS!!
Natasha is gorgeous.
great x-mas present for us fans :3
i wish people would notice her more... she too fucking great!!!
SO glad I clicked on this...
Amazing!!!!!
natasha
Hipsters mala copa, Hipsters mala copa everywhere!
I still can't get over how good this version of the song is! So amazing. I wanna know if it was a version she recorded, but scrapped in favor of the album cut, or how exactly it came about!

It sucks we can't get this version on the album or even a single. I would pay anything for it. :(
