Oh man. This singer hits my emotional side easily. I don't know what it is, there's a crapload of awesome singers out there, but Lisa just does it right. I'll listen to this for the rest of my life.
I like how imperfect this sounds. It's clearly not heavily edited, and it just sounds really genuine. Somehow the choppy stop motion just makes it even better 😊
Yes this is good music and I love it and when I get my next pay check, the next thing I will do is buy here albums, but here is a little tip for people who want to also watch the video in HD (which is as lovely as the song, trust me, you'll notice the difference): (the channel is: AustraliaMusic) /watch?v=Zta4yy2hTYk&feature=channel_video_title
*LYRICS* Like a turning head Like a second look Like a burning leaf of an open book Like a pounding sea Like a messy crime When your eyes first met with mine Like a broken word Like a tragic smile Like a thousand steps or a single mile Like a lonely chance Like a savage glow When you turned and said hello I was just about to go There were flowers on the ceiling You left me feeling Like a fading voice Like a closing door Like a dozen lies and a dozen more Like a twisted tongue Like distant bark When we broke out in the dark The stars looked like burning sparks The lights were warm but chilling You left me feeling Tired Could not close my eyes On fire But frozen inside To run or to hide Speechless my words could not melt Whisper I wanted to shout With out you I felt Like a fleeting thought Like a double eight Like a gentle feel of a warming taste Like a placid breath Like a cool wind blows When you stopped and held me close Inside I nearly froze Your touch is almost healing You left me feeling Tired Could not close my eyes On fire But frozen inside To run or to hide Speechless my words could not melt Whispered, I wanted to shout With out you I felt Like a setting sun Like a last goodbye Like an incomplete lullaby
If you like Lisa, you should check this out too... Very cool stop motion video from an aussie girl. Got to #9 on UA-cam's 'most discussed music video' chart... because it's DIFFERENT! Kate Leahy - The Life Raft Much respect to Lisa! Love love love your work. x
@dacoolest123123 Music taste hardly makes you smart, or stupid. Personally, it's down to personality and the way your brain has you think. I'm open to all music, from Hip-hop to Classical. That doesn't mean I'm Einstein, or Britney Spears. Honestly... music has nothing to do with your intelligence. Your up bringing, or personal background, yes; that may very well change your opinions, but not much else.
@Chicklett9 A song that can be singed and understood by persons from 5 years of age to above,always will be better selled than let's say this.To many words that don't repeat, and can't be hummed, so not every low minded person can listen to this.Be it 20 years of age and 6 in thinking.That is the worldwide problem with music,that is why Justin Beaver is such a hit, cause the overall IQ of the world goes down down.This applies to Lil' Wayne,and other simple minded `singers` that sing about money.
lol, paid off over their..how much would they earn doing this every year ? you think she, with talent, would have her family 'pay them off' ? theres been some really shit performances on australian idol over the years, PLENTY of them were from non-priviledged people and were judged horribly well for how shit they were. and did she win ? NO she didnt. dont think it'd matter if they were paid off or not, cause she has TALENT, something you seem horribly bitter about.
Oh my gosh, you're SO right! I'm so sorry! I should have gotten 'small populace' from "An Idol loser from a small country who enlisted talented song-writers to make her useful". I'm so silly. Next time I will be sure to check population stats just to be certain my tiny brain can comprehend the deep sentiments expressed on an internet forum. And she writes her own songs by the way. Don't bother replying, I won't read it.
@intimeyeah ummm..i don't really see any difference between this video and the stevie video...she's both times amazingly beautiful. i guess you don't even look at a persons true features but only at her styling?? her features are so very delicate and pure...the shape of her lips and eyes is so perfect and lovely.. and no makeup or lighting can fake that
sorry, but i dont think you shoulkd stifle peoples oppinion, this is supposed to be a forum of free speech (the internet) people can post whatever they like, you can score accordingly to YOUr oppinion, i love this song and the artist, but i cant stand the attitude youve taken with your "love it of GTFO" attitude. please open your mind like lisa opened my heart.
she is wonderful and it is natural a woman to fall in love who do not like it is supposed to hold down the flap can you not respect simple who can not dream anymore I'm just really sorry
@crazyawsome9 Haha! well i must say that means alot to me when you say that! =) Im sure that boy or whoever may be granted with the honor of being yours will be very happy being with such an amazing girl such as yourself. And who knows, maybe we will meet again, Peace, have a great life.
@crazyawsome9 well, Crazyawesome, what it all boils down to is we are all equal. And something funny, is i have the same talent heh! =) and I am glad i am not bothering you. to that end, take care and i hope it all works out. and i will be right here if you need me for anything =) Take care of yourself.
@crazyawsome9 you don"t know that for sure, or do you? you will never know unless you take that chance. im not trying to antagonize you, i am simply giving my 2 cents. Believe me i know what you are going through. But what do i know, im just some guy commenting on a UA-cam video.
I love her music and I think she is the most beautiful girl I have ever seen. There is something so captivating about her, she's very endearing. And it's sounds weird but she has that look about her (maybe a vulnerable look) that just makes me want to take care of her.
@thatkleiner3 can I just say I am a metalhead (hopefully not a dumbass though) but I love indie music such as lisa mitchell and kate miller heidke and regina spektor. soooo... just dont have prejudice I guess is what im trying to say K?
I just hope she lets her 'adult' woman voice out soon...:( I just can't take anymore female baby girl voice singers...I"m sure she has a lovely normal voice...
How can music not be "real"? Jeez just because you dont like dubstep doesnt mean you have to accuse it of not even being music, it's all about the taste. By the way I'm not saying i hate this music, i love it. :D
@oEMOxKiiDSo47 you are almost too nice, the world definitely needs more of you. haha, i hope you find everything you're looking for oEmoxKiiDSo47. you deserve it and more. :) thanks so much, really it means a lot
@oEMOxKiiDSo47 nono it's okay i like your thoughts i just don't know, i feel like he's twenty levels above me..and i don't know how to not ruin things. it's kind of a talent i have, ruining things. anyways, thank you
australian idol is the only thing she has in common with any of the other people from it. her 'priviledged upbringing' has nothing to do with her talent.. she was noticed, she didn't buy her 'fame' to whatever extent it's at.
Saw you in London a few weeks ago, very good. Liking the video. Keep it you will get there. Come back again soon. PS. I think you might have been played on BBC Radio 2 as one of the presenters was there and he really liked you.
im soooo hidden in darkness. this lil goddess cannot bring me light. but she is enchanting. peace to my mind and heart.. let me fall back into the black...my candles and porcelain mask is all i need. .
Its a cute song, not a big fan of the bridge. Just saw an interview with her on video hits and she's so removed, laid back... don't know if I like it. I like this song though, its gorgeous.
omg this song (the beginning) sounds just like "We are dead and reborn" by Sons of an Illustrious Father?! WTF? Does anyone else think so? I think she released this before SOAIF though?
on the contraire, i'm glad she didn't win idol. she would have become incredibly comercialised and her music wouldn't be entirely hers. she is doing fantastically without it anyway.
lol i was looking for this song for soooo long... haha its hard to find a song when you cant remember the artist or what its called except the fact it has lullaby in it somewhere
my gosh, i remember when she was on aussie idol, and she got kicked off and from then on i have not watched that show, but ive loved everyone of her songs :) love her voice
thsi video clip is so weirdish, i like her voice thougj, i kow people say it's plain, but honestly, could you do any better? give her some slack people she almost won aus idol
@Chicklett9 its not that hard to say i think, people click on what they like. certain factors determine what people like. according to those charts are established .
I remember seeing this song on rage half way through the song so i didnt know what it was called. I had never been complete until today when i found this song again :) ♥♥
@DrunkOnBundy wow i didnt even know there was an Aussie idol, i don't even watch American idol cuz most of the time the results suck, with a few exceptions, like Lisa
@scotty2010ism it's true, she's beautiful. apparantly in every way. but only you can make yourself happy sir. having a girl like that would just be an awesome bonus :]
the screen shot of this vid looked like rory from gilmore girls. she's an amazing singer (lisa not who ever that actress is) i'm totally youtube stalking her music.
She does slur some words, but i think that is part of her style and it is what makes her unique. So diction lessons perhaps, but then her music wouldn't be the same.
Did anyone else notice the 'New Slang' key change? (This isn't an accusation of plagiarism, just similarity.. I could never accuse my future wife of such a thing)
Well what can i say, thanks for being you. I really enjoy your music and it is very inspiring. Turned her music on today while i wrote another script, i love it.
OMG i love lisa mitchell she has a unique look and i think it is absolutely stunning, ilove all her songs and i could listen to this one all day non stop !!!!
@emokidrell rubbish, compare lisa mitchell to owl eyes, holly throsby with tegan and sara, sara blasko and claire bowditch, alice glass with karen o...
Why did the song just disappear from spotify?
When you haven't listened to this song in about seven years and you realize how fast time's gone(:
Liz Harley I know rite? Crazy.
Oh man. This singer hits my emotional side easily.
I don't know what it is, there's a crapload of awesome singers out there, but Lisa just does it right.
I'll listen to this for the rest of my life.
Might wanna give Enya a try aswell, she's really good at it too. :)
She is so beautiful ...
This is one of the most beautiful song ever written and composed
it's like her other song, love letter: i can't tell if it's depressingly awesome or awesomely depressing
we must prepare the folk pop revolution led by Lisa Mitchell
I like how imperfect this sounds. It's clearly not heavily edited, and it just sounds really genuine. Somehow the choppy stop motion just makes it even better 😊
her voice is the thing that makes her so different
which is what i absolutely love
its amazing
It would be nice if she finished the lullaby but I love the imperfection.
Lisa Mitchell is amazingly talented, Not at all surprisingly, like just about all her tracks, this sends shivers down my spine. Beautiful.
I don't think I'll ever forget this.
Justin Abel me too
I know, it was sarcasm mate. They're both fantastic tho
your pure work is better, I hate over producers of commercial music, some of your original music was pure and heartfelt.
como es que descubro a esta hermosa voz y letras hasta 2020? me encanta!
Diana Vickers wannabe : ;)
I bought her album, Wonder and I am completely disappointed that this song is not on it!!! One of my favs!
Yes this is good music and I love it and when I get my next pay check, the next thing I will do is buy here albums, but here is a little tip for people who want to also watch the video in HD (which is as lovely as the song, trust me, you'll notice the difference): (the channel is: AustraliaMusic) /watch?v=Zta4yy2hTYk&feature=channel_video_title
Her videos are always beautiful. I love watching the videos as much as I love the music.
I dont why she stopped music she's awesome!
what are you trying to say?
+Your New Puppy Io Not sure what you mean, she's still working on her next album.
*LYRICS*
Like a turning head
Like a second look
Like a burning leaf of an open book
Like a pounding sea
Like a messy crime
When your eyes first met with mine
Like a broken word
Like a tragic smile
Like a thousand steps or a single mile
Like a lonely chance
Like a savage glow
When you turned and said hello
I was just about to go
There were flowers on the ceiling
You left me feeling
Like a fading voice
Like a closing door
Like a dozen lies and a dozen more
Like a twisted tongue
Like distant bark
When we broke out in the dark
The stars looked like burning sparks
The lights were warm but chilling
You left me feeling
Tired
Could not close my eyes
On fire
But frozen inside
To run or to hide
Speechless my words could not melt
Whisper I wanted to shout
With out you I felt
Like a fleeting thought
Like a double eight
Like a gentle feel of a warming taste
Like a placid breath
Like a cool wind blows
When you stopped and held me close
Inside I nearly froze
Your touch is almost healing
You left me feeling
Tired
Could not close my eyes
On fire
But frozen inside
To run or to hide
Speechless my words could not melt
Whispered, I wanted to shout
With out you I felt
Like a setting sun
Like a last goodbye
Like an incomplete lullaby
2021 aqui

@Chicklett9 It doesn't really matter. Good quality music is only recognized by a handful of people. let's just be happy that we are among them.

i saw lisa live and she live in same town
lol
ran it to her once oops sorry lisa
it was at show shes totaly awesome
love you lisa

im a guy and in my opinion i think she sings very well i found her on a mates myspace and yer i love her songs there easy to listen to and sound great
Her style is very Kate Nash and Regina Spektor, but it's cute, i don't think she would have needed Australian Idol she could have made it on her own.
finally something different and interesting rather than the tacky pop crap that is so popular recently! :D :D
loved it...x
@jezfez nuh uh!! Matt Corby has some good songs out there too! :)
cool great song!!! me gusto mucho y hace una semana no sabia nada sobre esta cantante :s
i used to hate her on australian idol, i guess its because she had a unique style that didn't match every weeks theme.
This is brilliant though.
She is the only ever contestant from Australian Idol that I like. Not to mention that Triple J (bless them) plays all of her songs. :)
"On fire, but frozen inside." just like a microwaved pie... awesome song though, hard to believe she was on idol, i mean, she has talent.
as weird as it sounds my cat loves this song she always purrs when she hears it and meows and paws at the speakers when it finishes lols
i'm so glad she didn't win aus idol. otherwise she'd be with the likes of natalie gauci and others who didn't quite make it in real life.
thats a nice unique video here. im really liking her lost and confused facial expression its so innocent and effective. and a nice song :)
this song makes me cry. i miss this feeling. i want this to come back but i can never trust no one no more... sigh
She is one of the best live performers ive ever seen, if not the best
@datcrazycygnet Yes and that's the reason why I know her, but we don't hear anything about Lisa Mitchell herself and that's a shame.
She's from my hometown of Albury-Wodonga on the border of New South Wales & Victoria in Australia.
And she was 6th in Idol in 2007.
