- In this performance at the NPR Music offices, two pieces from Laura Marling's newest record, 2011's A Creature I Don't Know, bookend a gorgeous new song called "Once." She'd never even recorded "Once," let alone released it, so consider this performance a premiere of sorts.
Set List:
"Don't Ask Me Why"
"Once"
"Sophia"

She's the full package; voice, chords, lyrics.
her voice is so smooth i wanna spread it on a crumpet
Lauren Thacker This made me lol.
with marmite I hope
@@psychomaji vegemite mate
love on a crumpet
Always come back to this once or twice a year, she's so dialed in with this set. Her lyrics really paint a feminine picture of what the other side of love and connection can feel like in my opinion. She's a great song writer.
I feel the mournful loss of rusk in every part of this set.
Im here too often a year.
Its too good
Laura Marling is an original. Like Joni. Nobody else quite like them. Intelligence. Beauty. Grace. Chops. Just wonderful.
***** looks like eva, sounds like joni
PetrifiedProduction Just for fun, I have to tease you a bit . . . is she or original or is she like joni? Because she can't be both.
I think she meant that Laura Marling is an original, like Joni Mitchell is an original.
I hear a resemblance to Joni too. A powerful and smooth voice...
She's original. Just like her. I hope you realize the irony.
Learning recently that Laura and I are the same age has totally transformed my appreciation for her music. She would have been 21 during this performance, it's mindblowing.
That is absolutely insane - 21?!
Humbling
Now THIS is folk music. Brilliant.
To have such command of voice and sense of presence at 22. Yes she’s amazing.
She's actually absolutely beautiful. What a voice and lyrics too.
Laura and her guitar, is all we need
This concert is extraordinary for Laura Marling. Her voice sounds deeper than usual, and the camera angles (plus her wardrobe and makeup) make her look more mature. She's totally a Joni reincarnate.
Exactly what I was thinking!
she has set the bar extremely high here with this incredible
performance
My god, probably the most perfect woman ever. I could care less that she didn't say a word, the way she connects with her music is truly beautiful. Her lyrics are beautiful. Her guitar playing is beautiful. Gosh, she's beautiful.
If she'd been perfect she could not have made this music. Hers is not about perfection. But i understand you wouldn't change a thing about her or her music.
@@thelittlethingsudo her way of copping imperfection is perfect and that makes her perfect
I keep coming back to this. She’s damn brilliant.
Those opening chords bring me back instantly. A Creature I Don't Know is still such a deeply meaningful album for me. Much love to Laura Marling 🙏💚🙏
I could listen over and over and over. There are nuances of so many other folk singers but she has her own authentic voice. Such talent!
Over the years only Laura has stayed as my favorite,,,,,, she is queen.
Over what years? She's 26.
She's been in the scene since she was at least 16 yo
Interesting, thanks.
I feel you. Same here.
Yes, I agree! Queen
Oh Laura, you are such a sweet work of art.
I first listened to her like 5 years ago and I still listen to her on my ipod, but I never bothered to keep up with her work, and now I've got the joni chills, I am really starving for a live show from her, now.
This is the best live performance I've ever seen anyone!!!!!! Wow
The guitar in Sophia always gives me goosebumps.
I've been into Laura a long time. I think she's got something very special going on.
Wow, you don't *often* come across a voice this rich and beautiful...it MAKES you stop what you're doing and pay attention. I'm in awe...
ever since I found laura marling's music I haven't stopped listening, she's awesome and everything she puts out is beautiful
She's also a lovely guitarist. Her songwriting is brilliant. Her voice is gorgeous. I can actually hear and understand every word. What a joy.
Laura is almost indescribable. There are the references, similarities, predecessors but she is an island of song and spirit. I’m n love with the truth of her voice and songs.
"All I didn't know needed doing had been done" SO GOOD
She's so amazing - such a huge fan! Her songs make me feel somehow sad and content at the same time.
I hear Bill Callahan more than anyone else. The semi-talking thing really hammers that point home.
I knew while watching this I needed to eat some simple foods slowly with my eyes closed. Tomato slices and salty tapenaude. What a special talent Laura is. Thank you, Tiny Desk and Spotify for all the wonderful musical discovery.
And "Once" is not the main song of this set; no, it is "Sophia." Musical genius. Love it!
Laura knows the meaning of beauty.
Having come of age with Joni, I was wondering if I would ever again see a talent who could thrill me like she did . My wait is now over. Laura is, like Joni, a true artist.
Best music session I've ever heard!
I've been watching this for weeks and it gets even better every time. Everything about this is straight up gorgeous
I've been listening to her for 1000 years.
Can't stop watching this. For years!
I definitely just cried from watching this. Beautiful voice.
Thank you so much, I always find wisdom on her words. I needed to listen to “Don’t ask me why”
still floors me
I keep thinking of Bert Jansch. The richness and complexity of guitar and voice, the complete mastery of both.
She does a great version of Blues Run the Game, too.
Your soul is a pearl, Laura.
AHHHH I LOVE her! So glad she did one of these!
She mesmerizes me.
Awesome and so inspirational. Made me cry. Thank you
I cannot but come here.
Once is enough
This version of Sophia 😍😍
Gorgeous ringing guitar tone too.
Everything about this is beautiful
How am I supposed to ever listen to the album version of "Sophia" after hearing this?! Such an amazing song and voice.
This is an intimate set with,in my opinion(time will write)THE BEST SINGER/SONGWRITER OF THE 21ST CENTURY
this kind of talent comes around 'once' in a generation.
Michael Lovelight She's just a trendy, there's nothing special to point at here.
She can play a bit , sing a bit - so what?
All of her music should be recorded like this instead of that overproduced crap that they release. I would buy it all in a heartbeat. It is difficult to listen to the overproduced stuff. It just isn't the same
Keith Richards She's not just trendy Keith, she's a real talent, shake the muck out of your ears and forget about who's trendy and who's not.
Dicey O'Reilly Is there anyone else who could play this? No, because there's no real song in the first place is there? Its not bad...
Like no other .she's amazing
Intelligent lyric with angelic voice. What more could you ask.
one of the best living musicians
my god she is so good, yet another british musical treasure.
An updated tiny desk with Laura's new album please!
nice, one day layter and you did got just that ;)
I love her low voice parts and how she plays guitar! Makes me wanna sit outside in the heat, drinking cold beer in the evening and stuff...
What a unique sound, a true performer. Haven't heard of her before, but will definitely check out more!
quality, thankyou Laura, remember hearing you on the radio and mentioning how you first started playing guitar on your daddies lap, a quote my dad uses a lot funnily enough is ask me no questions and i'll tell you know lies..
she gives me crazy goosebumps.
I just found Laura Marling. I just became a fan.
Once is amazing! I am floored.
LOVE her singing.
holy crap, I have no words. Just tears....
Laura is so lovely! I keep waiting for you guys to host Johnny Flynn too 😭 pretty please!!
Just found this - mesmerising singing and playing talent
Astounding songwriting and performance.
She is an exquisite talent ... ♥
Don't Ask Me Why is my favorite! It has a oldies feel to it idk why. Love it!
YEAH FINALLY!!!!! Laura Marling is the BEST!
This is the definition of beauty.
i love her voice.
she is incredible.
Tears... I miss my kids
Laura Marling is amazing.
Wonderful, I love Laura Marling.
Such a beautiful singer and songwriter....reminds me a lot of Joni Mitchell :) x
Wow. First time listening to her, & I haven't been knocked over like that by someone in a very long time.
I find it a shame how many people fail to even have an opinion(or time for one) these days. I love what you are doing, Giver! Thank you! @lauramarling
i don't think her voice will ever leave me
She's perfection.
"...I know it's not right, but it's real."
A Breath of fresh Air in the smog of pre- manufactured bubble gum mediocrity mainstream garbage.Grateful that She shares Her Wonderful Magic with the rest of Us!Thank You Laura.
Wow. She sounds better live and solo than on her albums. Sophia is def one of my favourite songs. That voice........
i love people who are not so special! what if she was special? one of the greatest voices i've heard from a very long time.
so graceful.
For some reason, I knew this would happen some time!!! I love you, Laura!! :DD
Awesome! It sounds great. Thank you!
Beautiful!
so Beautiful!
Stunning
thank you. and keep on writing.
3 of my favs
It's not like she's doing anything new, but what she is doing is so beautiful, and I love that she uses the classical it suits her
Such an inspiration. Hope to one day achieve a modicum of her sound.
small gigs are the best for falling in love with a LM song. ONCE ftw. shoutout to LM, great job well done. Loving it. That is all.
i actually hear Joni Mitchell all over the place in the first piece. A poet with phrasing and space that is as easy for her as breathing. oxoxoxoxox
You are amazing!
La escuche por primera vez en 2020 y es como si hubiese nacido adulta. Amo su musica.
wowsa, her voice knocked me sideways, upways, downways and any other way one would care to go!!
Holy shit she has an absolutely amazing and unique voice. It was completely unexpected.
