Today's Song: Bat for Lashes 'Laura'
Now that Kate Bush is actually making music again (although who knows for how long), it'd be especially pointless for Natasha Khan (aka Bat for Lashes) to continue making music that wonders what Kate Bush would sound like if she were making music again*. And so she is not. "Laura" is the lead single from BFL's third album The Haunted Man (look at its insane, not-quite NSFW cover). What this song lacks in velocity it makes up for with its intensity. This is straight-up drama — perfect for a slow dance with a drag queen.
*No shade, though: Two Sons is the best Kate Bush album that never was.
