Bat For Lashes - Prescilla

[Confuzeddd]

hah! cool piano tunes

[karenlikesyou]

Um. Did that little girl just get eaten by a chair?

[123fresasconcrema]

omg itts myname<3

[iamBizarreMonster]

It's not the same version as in the album. why did they change it for the video? Where can I get this version?

[SwedishMonkeythief]

So goddamn fucking good. But of course it's BFL.

[KamelliaRea]

I like the Album version of this song better, the horns sound out of place.

[aquariummelody]

She sacrificed a vacuum cleaner?

[LGRful]

J'adore !!!

[hauchpedro]

She already has "Sarah", "Daniel" and "Prescilla". What's the next name she'll choose for a song?

[VlogKing]

@hauchpedro

"Pearl's Dream".

[hauchpedro]

She really loves him, Prescilla.

[SquallisGreat]

When I hear this song the chorus I think of her walking and snapping her fingers in tune over a crowded floor of sitting peole in a recording studio. I like version without horns.

[jonathanaaroncoyle]

[woojiescoojie]

mark ronson... gtfo

[nearfuturemusic]

Anyone know why the single version of Prescilla has a horn arrangement in it and the album version doesn't? I think the single version sounds much better with the horns and can't figure out why they were left off the album version?!

[gadjox]

@nearfuturemusic i actually think the album version is more focused and true to her style. I'll listen to that one. this sounds like two different songs playing at the same time

[kapknuckles]

@gadjox

That's exactly what I was thinking.

[StehZero]

i like the album version better but I really like that weird video.

[StehZero]

it's funny how I always dress in gold or use gold make up wheI hear Fur and Gold! hehe

[TheManjohshick]

Damn there's a lot of planking in this video

[bluedragonfly1290]

She sacrificed the vacuum lol

Oh how I love her and her gold head band :)

[pontsanchez]

WHAT'S THIS SONG ABOUT??? I DON'T EVEN... SOMEONE PLEASE... My name is Priscilla and they keep dedicating this to me, but i think it's not a good thing...

[pontsanchez]

@everyideasused But isn't that girl named Karen, what does Prescilla has to do in the sotyr?? Is she the lesbian lover of Karen???

[pontsanchez]

WHAT'S THIS SONG ABOUT??? I DON'T EVEN... SOMEONE PLIS...

[LunaHail]

@molkofan17 I always hated that. Specially when you get the CD just for that song, and you're like "Wait a minute! Damnit!" But, I mostly got Fur and Gold because I loved her music anyway, and both versions are good.

[amnm1000]

Before I knew the name of the song, I thought that she said "said I" instead of "Priscella"....

[CheerJaja]

this never happened to me when i entered my sheet tent. . .

[runningmoonb]

what are you talking about, what gaga ? they're sooooo diffrent, natasha queen of the indie, and the gaga queen of pop, they're style is soo diffrent ..

[PlagaXTifi]

I'd fuck her with my penis.

[Swachitsky]

she's amazing, but comparing her to lady gaga...it's almost an insult

compare her to BJORK! if they teamed up for a song it would kick ass

[JustLikeRaindropss]

she's beautiful...

[lightflower]

lovely song.Video's a bit annoying.

[ProjectLumen]

everything is better than lady gaga.

stfu and listen to the music.

[ak4109]

The mirror and the parallel world theme reminds me very much of the book 'Sophie's World'.

[ChrisTiNaThEFaMe]

@ak4109 i hate that book.

[AleXIXandra]

@ak4109 Or Coraline!



[forevertulip]

@ernest671 wat does that have to do with anything? This is a bat for lashes vid not a lady gaga vid. Stop trying to get attention and stop spaming this video with nonsense

[kakkaverdemetal]

Che bellina *_* !!!

[mikeyuro]

It sounds better than the album version :(

[iamBizarreMonster]

Why does it sound different (better) than the album version?

[JonesyMinimus]

phooooey!

[VenusAsABoyFilms]

why can't American artists be this cool????? :-(

[hkgreaves80]

@VenusAsABoyFilms Well Arcade Fire, The White Stripes and Metric are excellent so don't despair, and I'm English! (Yes, I know The White Stripes split!)

[VenusAsABoyFilms]

@hkgreaves80 Nice. White Stripes is one of my favorite bands. I was generalizing. I know America can give birth to some cool artists like of Montreal and Moby, Ratatat. etc. ;=)

[Ervine4]

@VenusAsABoyFilms They can be?

[greeneyedthing]

video is better than the song

[Blackanstein]

awesome tune



[mividaloca42]

why are people even mentioning lady gaga?

and you give the comment thumbs up hahahahahah you people are stupid as fuck (dont give this comment thumbs up you idiots)

[mividaloca42]

natasha looks so cool at the beginning awesome music video

[killerjaw1001]

lillte girl get eaten by a couch...WTF!? 0.o

[JanzArtur]

Marry me.

[booze4tbaby]

Why did I get slapped with an advert for Selena Gomez? I wouldn't be here if I had a shit taste in music would I?

[MichaelVaggieri]

i cant tell what the fuck is going on. but i love it

[krecorr]

Hey Vevo, the video won't play without buffering buffering buffering...

Thanks for the endless shitty ads. You're not selling me anything other than irritation.

[ditto56789]

@krecorr firefox + adblockplus = no shitty ads

[NekoMageMusic]

This is one of my favourite Bat for Lashes songs, but this is the first time I've heard this mix. My first reaction is that the added sax arrangement and other embellishments detract a little from the song when compared to the simplicity and vocal power in the album version. But it's still a good song, and a lovely warm video :)

[cjdarnieder]

@NekoMageMusic I literally agree with every word you said.

[supersoja]

this is not the album version, is it the single?

[ivehearditallbefore]

cuz lady gaga is amazing. that's why

[joshuasweeney]

Odd video. Wicked song.

[Nceron]

Everytime I watch a video on Youtube Lady Gaga is mentioned in the posts. Jeeze I dig Lady Gaga but Im sick of her crazy ass fans

[TheBizarreMonster]

I love it. (2:26 is a WTF moment xD)

[LunaHail]

I have a Headband like that now, finally :D Love this song, had to of been the 3rd song, I think, that I heard from her. :)

[Simorgk]

Amazing.

[paft]

What happened to the "no horns :) )" video version?

[yolazuka]

This video is based on the short films of Maya Deren!

[miizaify]

i lov the song and i lov her but this video sucks

[monmau889]

Woouuuoo, this video is very well done, really touched my heart in every way, the entire image...

[TheSnoberscool]

shes one of my fav singers ;)

[ben10062]

better than paramore?

[poeticjournalism]

@ben10062 easily.

[hxcJoei]

the album version is way better than the video version of the song... instead of those horns blasting all through the chorus, it's a nice relaxing piano that just floats peacefully in the background.

[smithslover1]

people mention lady bloody gaga coz they have nothing better to do with their commenting or time

[VirginiaMichelle]

Thumbs up if you laughed at the couch eating the little girl :P it was funny you know it.

[pawprint1059]

God, I remember this :)

[353troutr09]

@hhfarwellii, her father is from peshawar, so i believe thats makes her half punjabi

[Sardoodledoms]

did she just..shank a vaccum cleaner? -India

[scorpio11778]

she has a cute nose

[GDF78]

heard this on adventure club on the edge and this shit rocks!

[ChrisTiNaThEFaMe]

I bet that when she made this song she got inspired by Paradise Circus by Massive Attack

[fusionelements]

@ChrisTiNaThEFaMe nah dude. paradise circus is a sampled song. sampled from this. this is the egg. paradise circus is the chicken.

[ChrisTiNaThEFaMe]

@fusionelements You're absolutly right. I thought that Paradise Circus came before this song but after some research, i was wrong .

[fusionelements]

@ChrisTiNaThEFaMe yay for whosampled. com! There's a lot of songs on there you never would've guessed were sampled.

[skyjadeshe]

if you talk about gaga or beiber, you are automatically TROLLING NOW FUCK OFF.

on another note, i love her rings in this video. my favorite is still what's a girl to do.

[ShayIsMyName]

i think she is Illuminati.... all her vids are crazy and scary......... especially "Pearl's Dream"

[poeticjournalism]

@ShayIsMyName you don't get out much, do you?

[ShayIsMyName]

@poeticjournalism maybe i dont.... you tell me

[ryguy9498]

i have a feeling that this whole video is a dream she had.

[The8thTree]

I worship this woman. Seriously. SHE DEFINES WHAT IT MEANS TO BE A MUSICAL ARTIST.

[TheCerezita123]

my name is prescilla :DDD!!

[ecuatomlover]

@TheCerezita123 Mine tooo. But its Priscilla :)

[MorphicNightmare]

I love this song! Probably my favourite so far :P

[YoursTrulyChris]

She is quite bjork-ish

and has a celtic feel to this video

[TheMikhail13]

her music and videos remind me so much of the 90's I love it

[ryguy9498]

why are you people even mentioning lady gaga?

[xxXXxPagexXXxx]

@ryguy9498  I know I wish people would stop doing that. If you want to talk about her or Justin, do it on THEIR vids!!!!!

[fusionelements]

@ryguy9498 they do that on every video here on youtube

[TheNotorioty]

@ryguy9498 Forreal tho

[Valllick]

@ryguy9498 so you just went out of your way to mention The voldemort of youtube and oh look how many fucktards gave it a thumbs up now voldemort hauts this video 4 eva cuz you had to mention the nameless name that should never be written especially on youtubes

[losinghell]

I´ve just realized prescilla is such a beautiful name :)

[locomodin]

I didn´t get it :S

[iRockstar425]

bat for lashes is so awesome

[XolisykeswifeX]

better than lady gaga for sure.

[natalee89]

@XolisykeswifeX Because they both have vaginas? Is that why you think you can compare two completely different artists? Or you just needed to fulfill those daily trolling quotas?

[XolisykeswifeX]

@natalee89 because its the truth. and bat forlashes is really different, and so is lady gaga. but the girl from bat for lashes doesnt shove it in your face that shes different and everyone needs to know. thats why bat for lashes is better. and also why lady gaga is menchoned.

[iloveaspr]

natasha khan is so prettyyy. :3 

[KillaCillaxCore]

i love this sssooooo much my names is Prescilla this song is my life :) lol that so werid lmao

[LINA1VeVo]

This girl is sick she takes me on a journey!

[the1NYLONGIRL]

She's like a child and i love that about her! Everything is so whimsical and fairy-tale like! She makes me feel like i never have to grow up! She's my muscial peter pan!! :D

[330R]

I like both the album version as well as this one with the horns.. they give the song a sort of, hmm, new orleans jazz feel?

3:19 what a beauty :)

[Dasanmitchellboy]

I know the black guy breaking the washer lmao

His name is Thomas :D

[omegalavender]

MY SHIT!!!!!!!

[brimunce]

Oh my goodness that little girl looks sooooo much like a baby Cassie

[iloveit123]

the horns are great... really add an amazing layer to the song

[chinpoko56]

When the couch ate the girl I started laughing SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO much lol

[warlord90zzz92]

@chinpoko56 lmaooo i know what u mean that shit was funny

[LightsOfBohemia]

You can clearly see Natasha used to be a kindergarten teacher. She's great with kids.

[Laurology]

reminds me of bjork :)

[MissHarrietJane]

i love glitter.

[Pressiie]

Wow - my name is Prescilla. o.O

this feels weird. LOL'

[guy4rm36109]

anyone else notice how her songs in music videos always sound different from the album version?

[buffyandangelruber]

Evil Vaccum Cleaner!!!!!

[twigagawizard]

couch monster ftw

[noxmusiq]

geez....is that the only way she can get home? no bus, car or bike? sucks man...she got a bad deal. HAHA on a somewhat serious note...I love her videos and her music, quite unique!!! its a trip, kind of a dream/80's feel every time.

[haatwerken]

R.I.P. girl... hope you have peace now

[abiswann06]

is the house she goes into at the end buffys house from buffy the vampire slayer? it looks exactly the same.

[Xophosmitni]

this song's magnificent. Where can I download this version of the song? If anyone knows, please answer. Thanks

[sinkingwater]

what is this song about?

[VenusAsABoyFilms]

God, I love this song!

[matthagedon]

I totally relate to this song and video. Sometimes I dress like adam ant and play drums and kick boxes in the middle of some sand dunes by my house.

[Voldie]

ritual vacuum slaying ftw!

[TheCerezita123]

my name is prescilla :D

ohmygosh!! xD

haha :D

[miyukublue]

did she ritualy sacrifice a vacuum?

[VenusAsABoyFilms]

she's so pretty ... wow!

[tytoalba]

I feel as if the horns in this video version are detracting from the earnestness I feel from the album version.

[giftdistel]

I get the feeling that Natsha's into video games. Or at least hero stories.

[cistemaperrrio7]

that little girl looks like a mini cassie from skins

[necrolyptic]

oh, wow...

(:

[allieissuperbad]

@cistemaperrrio7 I was just thinking the same thing. :]

[alurkata]

@cistemaperrrio7 i think she IS cassie .. :D

[LThayeri]

@cistemaperrrio7 People actually watch that show?

[x30n0n]

@cistemaperrrio7 wich skins

[cistemaperrrio7]

@x30n0n old, english, bbc

[mozeppo]

this song is so perfect. i listen to it over and over.

[BbxQ]

She reminds me of Florence & The Machine

But in a good way :)

[jazzigod]

I actually think she is much, much better.

[ElectricBreath]

how can that not be in a good way?

[indubitably00]

I like the horns. I think they fit in just fine with the song, I mean maybe some of those staccato beats were too much but other than that I like their effect.

[gumba12]

I know what i want for Christmas next year :)

[manifesto2300]

this version is sick!!

[greatmusic52]

the horns on this very , i feel that they dont really go

[dynamis57]

I think the horns are alright, except I do think that it would match the song better if they had a string section playing the melodies that the horns are playing instead.

[stabao]

I love you Natasha!

[sponcer16]

my mothers name is priscillia i feel like this song is dedicated to you...its incredible

[itsmeJTke]

an amazing woman

[schlumbucket]

Horned devilz bad? Plump rump. Mmmmm....so good...

[poisonivygrace]

oh i love natasha khan. she seems like she would fit right in narnia.

[iloveit123]

i love when she looks at herself in the end

[suzinica]

reminds me someone.

[thursdaykidx]

OMG So Magnificent!!

[lails2000]

this is the best version of prescilla, the horns are amazing and totally complete the song, the album version is boring and dull. i wish this version was on the album :(

[iloveit123]

i've always wondered why i liked the video version so much... love it!

[zeeeeentron]

yeah its just better!

[disaster9]

god no the horns make the song sound 10x cheaper. its like i have a daft online popup playing at the same time advertising online poker while i listen to the song.

[AskMoi]

@disaster9 funny!

[brayshizzle]

I never heard this version and I have been a fan for so long.....oh so happy

[RuthieXD]

i really like the added brass! i think it sounds awesom XD

[2080michael]

btw did the vacuum want to kill her or fuck her?

[2080michael]

horns are killing it for me, not in a good way

[CATastrophiclovers]

Hahaahhaha, it's so funny when the kid gets eaten by the chair. It's a good song, but yeah I agree I think it could do without the horns.

[murdermaiden73]

Nice :D

[murmur9685]

I love the original version of this song ... I'm not too sure about the added horns.
