    I'm not sure if you're aware of right-wing Evangelical Christians in America who rail against homosexuals in the most vitriolic terms. They tend to be the biggest closet-cases around. You, though, surpass them, kid. I just thought you should know.

  • This is one of Springsteen's best and here it is wonderfully imagined.

  • this woman is 100% proof that angels exist

  • Love Bat For Lashes, but some classics shouldn't be touched - this is one of them for me.

  • Really neat rendition of a great song. She has a great voice live.

  • i consider bruce springsteen's i'm on fire a real song on the verge of passion, the game of wanting someone in its very beginning. also burning, dead sexy in a way. i really like bat for lashes too but her version didn't make me think all the above. it was a great performance, kind of romanticly weak in comparison with the vibe i get from the original. just felt mooding and more depressing. anyway it passes tho. the version that should disappear from planet earth is actually electrelane's. lame

  • @Dorotheabrooks93 The Bruce Springsteen version is about being full of love and lust and a real desire to do something, but not necessarily having someone to full this burning desire with.

  • can anyone tell me what is the true meaning of this wonderful song? What is the desire?

  • If Bat wanted to compare or be compared to Bruce she wouldn't have done the song at half timing. Its an amasing rendition and this sounds just like the album version. That's called talent! Stfu haters!

  • If you don't like Bat For Lashes, then you won't like this. Obviously. Does no one understand the concept of a cover song?? And as far as BFL goes, this is beautiful and haunting.

  • I give cover of songs a chance most times..this is shitty.

  • to fucking slow for me!!!! its like im dieing for 3 minutes..
