  • I watch this performance over and over. I love her so much. Still waiting on her third album...

  • @Lstar07 Fingers crossed that it's coming next year.

  • im that fucking daniel baby ;)

  • anybody know the name of that little piano?? 3:30 ...

  • @Paulopo123 its a marxophone

  • It's funny how the band pretty much play nothing during the performance. Most of it's on track.

  • I love the synthesizer in the live version. Very 80's goth, The Cure, Pet Shop Boys influenced. Found this band on Pandora. Can,

  • I truly think she's one of the most beautiful woman i've ever seen in the music industry. And because I 'm probably one of the few (or the minority) in this world who believes that, it makes her even more beautiful! Natasha Khan, a golden voice and a woman of my heart!

  • the guitar player's name is Charlotte Hatherley, love her... :) she was member of Ash 1997-2006

  • Awsome tune, Amazing live!!!

  • I...  Dream... At Home

  • bat for lashes live on later with Daniel Holland??? haha

  • What's the guitar player's name?

  • Charlotte Hatherley.

    I had the pleasure of seeing Bat For Lashes with my dad at the Sydney Opera House on June 4 this year. An amazing and mesmerizing concert! Natasha has one of the best singing voices I've ever heard, especially live. I'm so grateful I found out about Bat For Lashes, they should be hugely popular! Sheer talent!

    I love this clip!

  • WOW,better than the original, love that keyboard

  • great track

  • Love this song and Love Natasha. Beautiful.

  • OMG I usually just listen to BFL first time discovering a live performance thought it would be shit. Surprisingly the band is good and vox although sometimes cents off from the recording are still amazing. And WTF how hot is the band? Bass Drums vox wowowo

  • Mr.Miyagi: "Oh daniel-san! you all wet behind ear!"

  • It's nice that there's a lot of women in her band

  • M0:00re

  • n e one know what this song is about?

  • @jjelrod1111 in all seriousness, its partly attributed to her child obsession with karate kid. I know. odd.

  • @tom101086 really..i saw an interview where she said she loved all these 80's movies .. very interesting if thats the case. thanks

  • @jjelrod1111 yeah theres a picture knocking about with a karate kid Danny Laruso on her back

  • @jjelrod1111 the daniel is about the little kid from karate kid ..daniel she was a big fan of the movie

  • SPEECHLESS. this is ART, not lady gaga...

    and her legs are great!

  • I love this one and the MT Eden remix

  • Im so looking forward to a new album ^^

  • What an haunting melody. Beautiful woman. Leaves me speechless.

  • first time I hear her music and I like this . . . I think she should make more upbeat songs like this one :)

  • @atreddie Uh, if you don't think she's beautiful there's something wrong with you. Because she's flawless.

  • Me mata esta mujer y esta canción....., genial!!!

  • jools always introduces bands with such emphasis :L

  • I think I like this live more than I do the studio version.

  • Love this girl

  • I've a suggestion too - grow up and listen to your own music.

  • Comment removed

  • There's some pros for ya.

  • Wow one of the very few artists that actually have great singing talent without autotune! Natasha Khan is queen of my heart <3

  • i luv this performance

  • @photogramistic there is nothing pre recorded on jools holland show.all bands play live instruments

  • @gofman69 I've got to be honest - I love this song and I think it's even better live, but I'm pretty certain those drums aren't live. The snare drum doesn't sound right, the the hi-hat too, and there's no way she's reaching the timpani in time for those rolls. Something just doesn't ring true, you know?

    Having said all that, I saw BfL at the Roundhouse in London in 2009, and she was quite brilliant!

  • @JJ62 i think she's using an electric pad for the snare, not sure about the hi-hat and yeah the timpani is fucking incredible if she is doing that

  • Comment removed

  • I'm fairly sure human hair is part of her outfit!!!

    They are so captivating, it's like being transported to some other dimension!! Check them out on Abbey Road, it's brilliant

  • amazing

  • sexy singer

  •  the drummer is a hottie

  • major props for the timpani fill! that adds so much more dimension to songs!. and the drummer is girl! niiice! ;]

  • fuck i just love the trip that this song takes me on every each time i hear it

  • I don't know why I love the outfit

  • She is amazing. The band is amazing

  • I love this song!! I like how it's about the orignal karate kid lol. She is so great live!

  • <333

  • @durian2 Daniel is the most obviously commercial song on the album but the rest reward serious listening.

  • Comment removed

  • Great live performance. :)

  • She reminds me a little bit of Bjork. She's fantastic.

  • It's like Kate Bush meets Fleetwood Mac. And I love it.

  • This just came on the radio and I was blown away, this song is sublime, buying the album now

  • bat for lashes révélation inespérée en cette période bien  fade

  • Really good comment , Bat for lashes are really good and that s why I think their next album is gonna be amazing and they are gonna have the same route as bands like Elbow ,Radiohead ... They will stay . but I kind of look forward to hear next Florence and the Machine s album . (I think the first album is really good,saw them for the first time 2 years ago and was really impressed by the whole band , but the machine doesnt exist anymore Its all about Florence ) .it s a shame .

  • @mayhewmusic I think it was really all about Florence anyway. The 'Machine' never really existed, per se. It's like Marina and the Diamonds: It's just the singer. But hey, It's Florence. There's nothing wrong about that.

  • Thanks for posting, this is superb.

  • omg ..me loves

  • Really good song! If you like this look at the Mt Eden remix it's equally as brilliant, by the way I would defo give her proper go. Loldongzz

  • bat for lashes is so brilliant and cool.

    i love this song and the feelings I feel when I listen it

  • MONARCH PROGRAMMED GIRL

  • @durian2 say what? (I know what monarch is)

  • Natasha doesn't sound like Bjork- anyone who makes this comparison has never listened to Bjork. However, I do like them both... have a nice existence.

  • Any other Daniels find this song gd, but unnervin?

  • Wow *______*

  • I love this song, im so glad it sounds good live too :D

    Her makeup reminds med of Jem from "Jem and the holograms" by the way, me like!

  • bjork? is that you?

  • Fleetwood Mac anyone? Great tune.

  • flawless.

  • Natasha te amo =)

  • Incrível, incrível! Bat for lashes é incrível.

  • Sadley they dont put Bats for Lashes on MTV

  • @TheNaomiengland Forget MTV YouTube is the new MTV.

  • great song, sexy singer.

  • Just love it and she's hot!!!

  • Great version!

  • what are you going to do? cry me a river? who cares, i like the song but her nose is still ugly doh

  • @bergstromfitte if she was a guy you wouldn't even be mentioning her nose. its sad that women cant make great music without having their appearances constantly critiqued.

  • @cynthiailly You're totally right, it's a real shame!

  • @cynthiailly You're totally right, it's a real shame!

  • Voz su, en vivo. y precisamente no tan falsificada.

    ;)

  • that was awesome! especially keyboards! he was doing so much!

  • The only question is why isn´t this in the top ten chart...it´s amazing

  • @valypan Just stating the obvious here: most people like shitty music.

  • @scorchoman Well maybe. But in every decade shitty songs always existed, together with great songs. I consider Coldplay great music and they are wildly popular, however I do think that radios and record companies are investing an historical minimum in promoting great bands like Bat for lashes, contributing, albeit partially, to the shitty songs in the top ten :)

  • shes got a hot body

  • kissing the eye of the storm !

  • Gives me the shivers. Fucking brilliant.

  • @bergstromfitte my god I took a look at your blog - you are in no position to criticise the appearance of others!

  • @bergstromfitte What the HELL does her nose got to do with this?! She is singing, not modelling! Are you completely brainless? Vain people like you make THIS WORLD ugly.

  • natasha khan/bat for lashes are musically/theatrically important. for me. i can listen n watch 'daniel', over n over again n still feel as though it's my beginning moment of introduction to her and her conviction.

  • correction - Ellie Goulding***

  • @THATGUYWITHAGUITAR probably a sampler such as a Roland SP something or other. Check out other uses from Golden Silvers and Ellie Golden.

    You load sounds onto it and trigger them by playing it like a drum

  • best song of 2009 -

    seems kate bush

  • does anyone know what the thing is called that the drummer is hitting to make it seem more electronic?

  • Juuuuust perfect! *O*

  • me encanta bat for lashes

    la voy a ver junto con coldplay

    aaaaah

    me encanta siren songgg

  • waa io tambieeen fuii ahhhh

    ah k natasha canto genial???

  • buena banda en vivo!!!viva coldplay!

  • ENGLISH

  • wii yo los vi ayer...........

  • omg that's nice!! great band

  • Que buena banda, increible, ..!!!!!!!

  • For ZLIgari Please don't teach granny to suck eggs. Blind people are the best piano tuners. I may be going deaf and blind due to old age but not yet stupid enough to appreciate a grade 1 Top of the Pops performance.

    After 35 years of teaching (professionally trained) music I learned that no matter how simple the tune and how hard musicians practise, you never get two consecutive, identical renderings. Check out the other LIVE performances, on YouTube, and you will HEAR what I am saying.

  • you needed 35 years to figure that out?

    OT; great song, good performance; but the one from abbey road is the best i've heared so far,

  • who is the girl drummer?

  • ya hoooooooooooo i love bat for lashes!

  • Great song..............but.........

    are they actually playing live???

    The base player doesn't appear to do anything during the first verse despite a nice thumping base sound.

    Plus midway through the song there are two distinct keyboard melodies but only one player.

    Lastly, for a live version of this song, it is too similar to the actual single. Check out the other live performances.

  • r you blind, deaf, or just stupid?

    real PROs playing their songs like they r on album!

    and thats why they r PROs!!!!

    listen others bands who had perfomance in that show! maybe for them, its too important to sound well as they can...for some reason...

    there r 3 keyboards, who can play melodies for themselves,while he playing something else.

  • Bass player? What bass player?! Are you even watching the same video?!! After 35 years of teaching music, you cant tell the difference between a bass guitar and a six string electric?!

    Sorry man, but It seems you dont understand the basics of electronic music...its ok....but I can tell you that this is very much a live performance. If you dont get it, then I really dont know what to say to you...

  • yup I see 6 machine heads on that Firebird!

  • Hahaha! You are a massively cretinous loser with bad ears.

  • i can't say anything regarding this performance, which is questionable. But when i saw them live at glastonbury they played so well i was convinced it was pre recorded, but it was live. in conclusion they are very tight.

  • awesome vocal ! <3

  • i cant stop listening to this!

  • Boring? wow I wonder if you are talking about the same video everyone else is watching.

    All the good dancers usualy can't sing. Even elvis and Michael jackson voices arent all that great.

    No one has ever seen a music group with the full package.

    Pretty faces but no talent. Talent but no image. Good dancing but no voice. Good voice but no energy.

    I have a suggestion for the bat for lashes haters. Upload some stuff for us. We all are looking for new talent to listen to on youtube.

  • magnifique

  • the drummers good

  • I love this girl and I love this song!!

  • Brilliant song and performance

  • Comment removed

  • I really love that song.

  • I love bat for lashes, this sounds just like the single!

  • i eat aids for breakfast

  • @thatguynico That's not nice....no, wait shhh...no it isn't

  • There is a really good Bat for Lashes cover of Kings of Leon's "Use Somebody" all of her fans should check out. It's great. She is an amazing artist. Thank you MTV-U channel for playing the "Daniel" video or I would never even know she existed. Thank you very much for posting this, MickysVids. I loved it.

  • idiot

  • 3:52 she is sxy

  • She's sexy all the time

  • How could she copy Florence and the Machine if Natasha music career started before her? Not to mention Natasha's style has been consistent from the beginning..

    And how can long brown hair and straight bangs be copying Lily Allen? The only reason why they are compared is because their faces look similar in addition to having bangs..

    If thats the case then a fourth of the women on the planet are copying Lily Allens hair..

  • Love her!!!!

  • Ik wil Daniel gewoon terug!

  • I think the same as stone985. People just hearing what another people give them to 'eat' No matter if it bullshit. Bat for lashes, also Florence + machine are those artist whos are much much better. Compare it? It's like plastic pinky queen shit and Classic Lady bless us with voice:)

  • Compare of course Music al'a Lady gaga (radio edition) or BatForLasher/Florence and more - there are couple good bands

  • Like this better than the recording. More 80's - tastic

  • This is much better than that shit music like Lady GAga, she us a joke, Gaga sounds like every top 20 music station shit you hear everyday, its generic and sucks, this is more underground, Jennifer has a better voice and should be a bigger star than she is, the world will catch on. We need more music like this, this music does have that 80's quality that is missing today, today music sucks we need more music like this.

  • @stone985 who is jennifer

  • sorry Natasha, I saw them at the outside lands in San Francisco this past year and she was awesome, this girl is talented and she's original, like being in a time machine in the early 80's. We need more music like this instead of all the generic non talented dorky shit out today!

  • Don't hate. You obviously don't like mainstream pop music but it doesn't mean you can just throw insults at her music because you have different tastes. You have no reasons to base your opinions on, you just hate on it.

    I'm a big fan of Bat For Lashes but it doesn't mean I'm gonna throw insults at Lady Gaga's music when I know I don't even like that style of her music.

  • and who is Jennifer. Her name is Natasha lol

  • No shit her name is natasha LOL that was a typo prick. And let me tell you that gaga shit is generic like most music today, its all about image with people like her but the music sounds dull and boring like much music today. Their is not much creativity out their, only dull dorky volkswagon driving yuppies like yourself who have no taste. Get a life pal and got listen to your top twentie station listening to beyonce and gaga or konya or whatever shit fits that discription, LOL LOL

  • Listen, fyi, firstly I'm 15 years old so you should feel a little ashamed you are swearing at a teenager who has done nothing to you.

    All I'm saying is that although you may not like a particular type of music, it's just basic manners to accept people have different tastes to you. Throwing insults at it is hating. If it's not clear, hating is bad. I know at the moment there is a lot of gimicky mainstream doing well. But does that mean if I like a handful of mainstream songs, I'm an idiot?

  • Sorry not hating, and I am young also, I just hate most of the mainstream music today, seems like the quality has gone down the tube and like in movies theirs more CGI cartoonish crap than quality. I In the 80's especially the early 80's that was before my time, the quality was excellent and their was creativity like bay for lashes, all I'm saying is that most people today settle for quanity and less quality it is sad, but Bat for lashes is quality which is rare today!

  • mainstream music is mainstream for a reason: its generally GOOD stone985 ur a retard mate ur logic is illogical :D LOL LOL

  • No mainstream should be called top 20 bullshit or dorky generic, that is logic, Bat for lashes is not mainstream even if they become big someday they will be underground roots. But basically all the shit like Beyonce, Konye and gaga are pretty dorky too me, so I guess hairbear your ass is a 40 yr old dork who listens to that shit music!

  • 40 year-olds account for a small percentage of record sales. You should have called him a 14 year-old girl :P

  • LOLLOL thats funny!

  • mainstream music like girls aloud and jls? yeah they are so talented alright hahah

    they couldnt dream of being as talented as natasha khan ,

    ever

    mainstream is the way it is cos they rely on image and press to get famous not talent

  • There has always been commercialism.

    Only the real artists are remembered.

  • And mainstream music today suckkkkkkks, its not about talent it about fashion not the creativity, natasha khan has creativity and she is original not like all the same ole cookie cutter generic shit that trendy pricks like yourself like. That is the probelm with society since the late nineties all these 20-30 yr old gen Y'rs like your self have no taste, and yall do not like quality all you want is quanity of yuppie loving bullshit!

  • @stone985 I agree completely !

  • @stone985 Thats the way music HAD to progress since the late 90s because the simplicity of music up until that point had been exhausted. There was nothing new to do but to move in this direction!

  • @stone985 Hell I'm 18 and I agree with you!

  • The probelm with todays music is the corporate yuppie loving mainstream like yourself, you pricks go with what is popular and not with what your personal taste is. A perfect example is starbucks who in the fuck was drinking coffee before those pricks came along, it became trendy. If Ping Pong became trendy your ass would be promoting ping pong and saying its the shit. What I am trying to say is the problem with the world today is people like you go with the mainstream and follow the leader,

  • Greate and professional!

  • Damn, she honestly sounds better than expected live.

  • sexy voice..xx
