Perhaps one of the best live performances I've seen in my life, it is just incredible, much better than the album version, and the latter is one of my favourite songs ever. Her control of tension is surreal, how is that even possible to create something so magical.
To me this song is about futility of living and antinatalism. We tell ourselves stories to justify our existence, take on values and narratives coined by other people before us. We yearn for success and fear death in hope that our life was something more than just collusion of desire and ignorance. But can't quit our ways. Instead we take up arms and battle this Earth, to destroy it and assume the role of saviors.
I guess I should be more in depth. when it comes to women I will hold Laura's wisedom at her age among the majority of other women's wisedom. next time I meet somebody like her Ill think different

Come on now, the album version is pretty freaking good too. Mumford and Sons brought this to a new level.
Great singer, great poet, great band! I love Laura Marling. Thank you so much for uploading these amazing videos.
My God! She's ONE of the few artists who is worth, like REALLY worth, listening LIVE. Is so good you shared this video with us.
Laura Marling speaks to my soul 💙
Nicely done Laura Marling. Born Feb 1990 puts you 24 years being on the planet. I look forward to observing how the path unfolds for you.
Brillant performer.Love hearing her with this band.Bring on WOMAD NZ!
I've always imagined this song being sang by (or for) Anne Boleyn.. The lyrics just suit her so much..
In addition to everything else I love the way Laura acts the part of the character of the lyric
what a song!
These videos you've uploaded are absolutely incredible. Literally from the performance all the way to the sound recording and mixing, amazing.
The last time a female artist rote a song with this much intensity was around 1996
Captivating 😍🎶
