I'm lost for words to describe the sheer beauty of this song. I know it's probably, well yeah, the most astonishing song I've listened to in my life, as far as whimsical light poetry. The joyful, light-hearted piano line runs over and over around my head for ages afterwards, every time I come back to listen to it again. I recall hearing an RNZ music critic describing the lyrics as like being on a bus, gazing out the window in a relaxed state, and thinking about all the design that goes on in our relationships with one another and within the human-altered environment surrounding us.
Please compare this to the KEXP version. Here I wonder so much, why she sounds like being half a beat behind the musicians .. The mentioned live version definitely is the best of 'Designer' the internet has to offer. Aldous Harding is such a brilliant artist. Her music deserves any appreciation there is.
Thank You. Have been lucky enough to see Aldous and the Band play twice. Roll on for a third occasion. Such a wonderful live performer, and this version of Designer is no exception.
Aldous, you're one of my favorite people ever. :)

Nobody "underrated" her.
@@Bojangb never asked for your input
@@thejungleline with that sort of twaddle you are most certainly going to invite inputs from people.
I have dark times you help me see the light
In the Top5-album of the year list at Berlin's great radio station 'RadioEins'. Great song👍
That piano riff is brilliant!
Tantos colores y matices en una sola canción. Es increíble.
love that this song starts with a quick shout out to Leonard Cohen then completely changes direction
I love watching your joy when you sing.
Boy am I glad i subscribed to this channel.
Thanks for watching and subscribing, Juan!
Discovered in the Air New zealand play-list, she was the one of the gifts New Zealand gave me
