Black Cab Sessions. Chapter Twenty-One: Noah and Laura

[madebyrequest]

awww look at them smiling at each other, how cute.. too bad they broke up :(

[15gian15]

Love you guys.

[ThugPotato]

she is a bitch for breaking Charlies heart, she ruined the greatest thing ever and he deserves better.

[cocopearce]

@ThugPotato laura rules. charlie does too. but you suck.

[SuicidalMarshmellow]

Compared to the music industry these days there is something so great about

Laura singing this amazing song with no makeup hair a mess in the back of a taxi...

Looks get you money, but you cant buy talent.

[EmmieElectro]

This is amazing, what a beautiful relationship they had, it's a shame she did break his heart after all. But still that was ages ago, great video.

[ln6684]

He actually changed the album lyrics -> "Dont' break his heart" in "don't break my heart"... So it's kind of a personal "Charlie and Laura" version.

When you know they were together at the time and 3 years afterwards broke up, it's kind of ironic... Anyway, love them both <3

[cheuklamng1]

aw this is so cute

[EilidhThePidgeon]

That was lovely. Personally I think Laura looks beautiful. Though I wish the camera could have taken them both in all the time, I'd've liked to have seen the way they looked at each other while they were singing!

[mushroomlint]

what kind of guitar is he playing?

[coldmayy]

I'ts Charlie Fink.

[pigpig1214]

I am the only want who notices that Charlie has short black curly hair?

[pigpig1214]

This is November 2007. she was born in 1990 in february. she was 17 in this video, and three months from turning 18.

[flowers4563]

this breaks my heart knowing how heartbroken charlie was left,

p.s shes not 16/17 here, shes 18 x

[desmopstochter]

I adore laura marling, and not in the slightest I want to make assumptions or in any way attack or bad-mouth her, but she looks completely stoned :-D

[daisydee123]

beautiful. can't believe laura must be about 16/17 here!

[starbuck1111]

Too bad she did break his heart.

[clarkyboy2]

@starbuck1111 she did not break his heart she did him a favour hes way to good for her

[thepmiester]

There's a boy over the river with short black curly hair, who wants to be my lover..

C'mon - obvious hint :)

[basketcase5295]

Whose playing the bell/tambourine sounding thing? I can't figure that out.

[Betina4916]

She looks like a 12 year old ghost, who's a bit of a mess.

[muffin752]

I absolutely LOVE this video, I can't stop watching it!

I think it is so good when You, like bumbleberb said; think of it as them singing the songs about/to each other <3 

[aurorahoney]

she did break his heart...

[anneflatrate]

i always had sympathy for laura marling, but this video makes me not having any sympathy anymore...

[aj19fleming]

poor bastard.

[TinyVessels23]

love charlie, he sings along. "we're getting her lessons though"..ahh they were great

[itslaurzipan]

this makes me weep. beauty. "his" is changed to "my" on the last "don't break his heart".

[ektingers]

thank you justsofilms for the video, thank you autostraddle for the link and lastly, thank you laura for the beautiful music.

[Bahfreakee]

poor Charlie Fink :(

[jordan72294]

he's beautiful, she's beautiful, the song's beautiful...

this is beautiful

[birdsong62]

this guy is selfless here...love his stuff

[ais2009]

what song did laura sing?

[TudesofAlex]

@ais2009 Alas I Cannot Swim

[quagmire77777]

Seatbelts! this is beautiful.

[bumbleberb]

Notice how he slyly looks up at glances at Laura during the line "yeah, but I love you."

[bumbleberb]

it's like they're singing for each other. you know, with the lyrics aimed at the other person. intense.

[castlecait]

@bumbleberb

laura marling is with Marcus Mumford

[quotationsandfluff]

@castlecait she's not anymore. He cheated on her. They split up at the end of last year.

[TheMusicMyEars]

@quotationsandfluff ...he did not cheat on her. she left him for the lead singer of mumford & sons

[quotationsandfluff]

@TheMusicMyEars It was Marcus Mumford I was talking about, sorry I wasn't very clear.

[EmmieElectro]

@TheMusicMyEars She didn't leave him Marcus from Mumford ¬_¬ *sigh* She left the band and shortly after ended the relationship in 2008, she didn't go out with Marcus until a very long time after.

[EmmieElectro]

@quotationsandfluff They split up in 2008 and he did not cheat on her, i've researched and looked at so many articles about this. They had differences, she was going different places to him. She left to work on solo stuff.

[quotationsandfluff]

@EmmieElectro As I mentioned in a previous reply it's Marcus Mumford i'm talking about *not* Charlie Fink.

[EmmieElectro]

@quotationsandfluff My apologies, Marcus cheated on Laura? Oh i heard that too

[herrnenne]

It's a fantastic song.

[boritomc]
