Laura Marling "Your Only Doll (Dora)" RAVE HD

This is the adorable Laura Marling performing "Your Only Doll (Dora)", the final tune from her "Alas, I Cannot Swim" debut CD. For whatever reason Laura reminds me of a young, less confident Kate Bush which is actually a very good thing.

With a first album this amazing I believe the future is bright for Miss M...

Uploaded as a high quality 640 x 480 MPEG4 file using Pinnacle Studio.

Why this clip is mis-labeled "Ghosts" is a good question. I suppose the person doing the CGI thought they knew the tune...or Laura simply changed her mind and felt like singing this song instead.

what guitar is the using here?

[HiHo44]

It looks like a Gibson J-45 to me. A wonderful guitar and not too pricey.

[boylelaura]

her music keeps me sane.

I just discovered her and I am amazed; I would seriously put her on the list with Lisa Hannigan, Regina Spektor, and Fiona Apple. Very beautiful. I love it!!!!

I think she envelops what I feel at this time in my life.. shy, self-conscious, and painfully nice and innocent... unwilling to show strong emotions. And then it comforts me to know that she was a teen like I.

What can I do with a girl if she is refusing to be alive?

[PrinceofPeace9957]

Boring and depressive. Nothing special.

@tag4163 I see how being an abusive relationship can cause issues.

@EvaQuill - isn't the protagonist's name Nora?

[HiHo44]

@EvaQuill Excellent observation and I do believe you are correct!

I think this song is about a girl who's boyfriend is not treating her nicely, you've broken your only doll is the line I guessed that from.
