Natasha Khan and her music get compared to a lot of other musicians, but whatever you think of her has to be set aside so that you can appreciate what her songs have to offer. There’s a lot of going on in there and while, it sometimes borders on sounding like Neverending Story soundtrack outtakes, her instrumentation always gets me thinking. Granted you can only play one song off each album out at the bar, but that’s not really what it’s about anyways. The songs below are off the new album Two Suns due out in April.. ‘Daniel’ is the single and the obvious favorite, but listen to ‘Siren Song’ all the way till the end. Holy Fuck.

Bat For Lashes – Daniel
Bat For Lashes – Glass
Bat For Lashes – Siren Song
Bat For Lashes – Good Love

Bonus:
Did I already post this? I can’t remember, but her cover of The Boss does everything a cover is supposed to.
Bat For Lashes – I’m On Fire (video) – MP3

The three links were dismantled after I got a notice from my hosting company regarding a DMCA violation. Sorry..
