Laura Marling - Wild Fire (Official Lyric Video)

[@BrummyTom]

I was a huge Laura Marling fan around the 'alas I cannot swim' era. Cannot believe how good she has become. Imagine if all artists became more refined and insightful as they aged. This is genius.

[@lyrilljackson]

this just sounds like james blunt the woman version. i heard her 3rd album debut but favor more songs before that, before alas

[@themodesttriumph]

L Y R I L L what the fuck are you on about. 'James blunt woman'?????

[@lyrilljackson]

three wise women come on it has to be related. the guitar backing are all way too familiar to james blunt songs :get high" the way she sings is, typical james blunt just an example

[@themodesttriumph]

no one is familiar with james blunt's material

[@BrummyTom]

L Y R I L L I'm struggling to understand your point here. This performance is relatively stripped back. You could draw comparisons to hundreds of singers. It's not typical anyone really, certainly not James Blunt. I'm amazed by the soulfulness and emotion in the voice. Beirut use vocals to portray emotion better than anyone but their lyrics are much more vague. Laura's are specific and still in harmony with the music and vocals. It's just beautiful. She has mastered her skill as a singer songwriter.

[@himanipundir1820]

This song took me back to a very stuffed event in my life. The clashing drums just seemed to resonate with a point in my life when I was on an emotional overdrive. Through this song I was able to look back on those days with a compassionate and sympathetic outlook. There is resounding relevance in this song that synchronises with my nostalgic self.

[@TheDreamingJune]

This lady is a true gift to music.

[@sidekickcleveland7365]

Gift to reality

[@kirtconnolly7525]

Yep ur on the money lovely

[@pokeydokey]

Laura continues to be one of my favorites, so soulful and fierce. I can't wait to hear the rest of the album!

[@jakethorpe1088]

Even after all this time, she still keeps completely blowing me away and touching my soul. Thank you Laura!

[@AdamMurrdock]

jeeze, that windy rotary delay on the percussion feels so good through headphones. all her new stuff feels more conscious to the space available in stereo recording, like it's been recorded and mixed directly to tape and utilized that space. there's a real warmth to it and i'm rly excited for the record

[@BubblegumBrown]

That snare sound youre talking about? It drove me INSANE trying to figure out how to get that sound. What effects were used. How to tension the head. I couldn't figure it out. So I asked my Sweetwater sales manager rep I buy from. Hes a studio engineer. He didnt know. So I messaged one of the drummers on the album, Matt Chamberlain. He actually responded and if I recall, said that Matt Ingram used a Mastro snare. A 1950s/60s beginners snare that bridged the gap between toy and real instrument. Its apparently a well kept secret in the drum tech world. So I've bought 4 of them. Its my favorite snare sound I've ever heard and all the parts are proprietary. Time won't be kind with keeping them in good order, so I will. Even the tension rods are proprietary. When I get one of mine tuned up like this, I'll revisit this page and show you.

[@melissadenby2357]

I love it! I don't know any technical terms.. It simply feels good! Nice, Laura Marling, I never get tired of listening to you!

[@scrambledeggs8957]

Melissa Denby you don't need to know anything about music to appreciate it's beauty! :)

[@elliespurr5007]

This is the most beautiful song I have ever heard.

[@PowerfulChicken]

This is her best song. Until the next one.

[@tximinoman]

Soothing and this are great songs. And so different from her previous material. I just wish more people were interested in this type of music nowadays. She's one of the greatest singer/songwriters of my generation, and she's sadly unkown by most.

[@sidekickcleveland7365]

Share your love with the 🌎.

[@rodhughes2402]

Soulful classic! Can't believe this hasn't had millions of views.

[@alisonkoch748]

Absolutely beautiful song! Laura Marling has done it again!

[@sadfatlarry8355]

I'm always so blown away by her I honestly can't express the connection I have to her music growing up I found her music when I was in a very dark place he lyrics felt like they were ment to help me out of it thank you miss laura your a true queen!

[@mikedrinan5223]

i will never, ever tire of this sublime voice...

[@alexanderwalsh4086]

This sounds so much like Joni Mitchell to me. It's wonderful to hear such a beautiful voice again. Thank you for creating such stunning music, Laura!

[@tvisha98]

her lyrics speak directly to my soul

[@djangoherbert]

fantastic, makes it very hard to wait for the full album release... hope she also offers a deluxe edition, as in previous times...

[@ashton4529]

discovering this song through a playlist is one of the best things to happen to me

[@always_cornelia]

"You want to get high ... overcome those desires before you come to me," *You tell them Ms Marling!*

[@fubar12345]

Funny thing is she made this album after a few LSD trips.

[@NoelRayland]

Taking acid is not "getting high."

[@BubblegumBrown]

@@fubar12345 how do you know that? I'm genuinely curious. Is there an interview?

[@dangerouspea]

Laura, my dear! This song is like a return home! Thank you for this, looking forward to your future gigs, especially in Poland, where you haven't been yet!

[@Jenzoleigh]

Laura, please consider doing a show in Cape Town and Johannesburg, South Africa. It would be a treasure to see you live.

[@lestersmith493]

if your single please move here to upstate ny with me wow your beautifull

[@kevinlong4657]

i've listened to this song so many times since i first heard it 2 weeks ago

[@pepsimax2006]

YOU CAN DO NO WRONG! smashed it out of the bag once again Laura, bloody divine!

[@Mannymanable]

I've listened to this everyday this week.

[@abravebirdsaved5363]

I love this song so much as I do them all - But this live in Vancouver when I saw you was a 1000 times better live then the recording. You hit that song amazing. Was hoping it would be the same but it's your amazing art. Thank u

[@katieharrie4978]

Stunning.

[@lestersmith493]

yes U R

[@strictlynorton]

Beautiful Laura still wearing her heart on her sleeve like her self professed muse Joni Mitchell. Like Joni she's a poet as well as a songwriter and it really shows. An amazing track from an English artist to treasure..

[@quantumdino]

What a tune, can't wait to see her live in Birmingham.

[@peterbstrong]

I'm driving to work early yesterday morning and I hear this song. My first thought is" I didn't know Chrissie Hynde released something new"...my second thought,"Sounds like this girl listened to Lou Reed too"...my third thought was "this is spellbinding shit and I LOVE it" ! I was running late when this song ambushed me so I made sure I kept repeating Laura Marling,Wildfire Laura Marling, Wildfire. Thank you Laura. Please tell me you're doing small venues in NYC, Jersey or Philly soon ok?

[@FclefDweller]

Yes I thought of Lou Reed

[@agunsux]

She never cease to amaze me. You should come to Asia again, Laura.

[@samlynn8068]

Sobbing immediately

[@submarinodelimao]

laura, my love, you should come to brazil.

[@castreaux]

vir escutar Laura e dar de cara com mais 3 brasileiros que gostam:

[@binaryg]

Hearing Laura sing makes my day. This is lovely.

[@inshreds66]

She does sound very American on this one. Very Country and Western. A good vocal performance.

[@jimshelley8831]

In Thai it's called Swy It's beautiful I'm listening to this on BBC 6 music in a gym.

[@ayaanu9840]

YES! Just heard this lovely-bad ass song for the first time! Laura Marling-do your thing woman!!!! Love it!

[@jamesthomson7634]

Tom Brum Me too, that album blew me away and now this. She's shaping up to be one of the great's imo.

[@psychomaji]

Genius. Going to be a great album

[@KudzaiBi]

Wow, amazing. Smiled at "Maybe I'll understand wtf that means, when God takes me away"

[@hokulealinda]

Ah wow so love her !!! Amazing production, everything ...

[@tekkupallimbu1]

Loving it...loving it.....loved it.

[@joehacker425]

One of the best songs I’ve ever heard.

[@Jordanpurpl333]

I got chills every line 0.0 Thank god this was trending!!

[@visebibliotheques6162]

Instant classic ! Probably her masterpiece.

[@YarrBr0]

I'm glad she had this video made because I could not for the life of me make out the line "something weak and on trend"

[@LolosPy]

The most loving heart albums from her i looove iiiit

[@appeltaartenslagroom]

Feelin' that vibe! Really enjoying it!

[@sydney7439]

The audio quality is phenomenal!

[@daanphlips6339]

Her voice makes me think about The Pretenders, Chrissie's voice. I love it.

[@nimilshah6689]

She's on her path to be the next BD

[@singing0detective]

Boni Ditchell?

[@violam6651]

This is not the first time I have seen her compared to Joni Mitchell; but I have always been pretty bad with "X sounds like Y" comparisons and could never really hear the similarities. Today, it's finally clicked.

[@singing0detective]

:) To be honest, I mentioned Joni Mitchell as a joke, trying to understand who's the mysterious 'BD' Nimil. S was referring to. However, I know what you mean about being pretty bad with comparisons between different musicians

[@alinethome4064]

I assume they meant Bob Dylan? I'm not sure I'd claim their music is particularly similar, but he's the only BD I can think of in the folk tradition that's important enough to merit that sort of comparison to. Plus, they do share in being often praised for their lyrics and liking to experiment with genre.

[@singing0detective]

Yes, that makes a lot of sense :)

[@izethrasher]

I think it's going to happen to me with this new record like with the past album: the more I listened to it, the more I liked it.

[@TimGuymusic]

one of the greatest songs of all.

[@EricMalette]

I saw you in Toronto ages ago--your first show in Canada, I think. Anyways, cheers. This is the best thing I've heard in headphones in long, long time.

[@00snakeman00]

oooh lyric video laura, keeping up with the musical joneses😏 cannot wait for march, both the album and seeing you in glasgow ❤

Wonderful song Laura, I love it!! I can't help but notice that it does sound quite a bit like a John Mayer song?

[@krysthopher]

[@oooo4861]

very nice song!

[@kylerowe666]

Just heard this in bbc 6 May can't come soon enough

[@crockerboym]

Why, what's happening in May :-)

[@kylerowe666]

crockerboym sorry meant March... Albums out in march

[@Jordanpurpl333]

She should do a cover of Rolling On The River

[@ricksmith4201]

Man I wish she went back to how her songs used to sound like folk music instead of the kind of talk singing songs from the short movie album. Not a fan of the different sound but still my favorite artist by far, oh well.

[@mizofan]

The only musician to win one of the annual special awards at the Hay on Wye festival. Jackie Morris, illustrator, among 2018's three winners

Album's gone be good

[@carsofive]

This is a great freaking song.

[@benjaminfriesen8263]

Anyone know what the symbols mean? Are they her own creation or something else?

[@elmerfludd2358]

Google "sigil magic."

[@chrispeacock7895]

Tosh. These are graphics created from assemblies of drawing symbols used to denote specific objects in technical drawings (primarily electrical). They appear to be ISO or BSI related. Neat idea because it uses symbols that are used to avoid confusion for creating mystical looking objects.

[@amandasaksida4879]

@@chrispeacock7895 great clue, thanks. i think she may have taken it from there and went on creating her own imaginarium. they are sold on her page as removable tattoos :).

[@bobbychall5396]

Anyone know how i could get the acapella of this?

[@skippy7055]

Wow.

[@HAmerberty]

It's interesting this lyric video is uploaded onto this account, not the LauraMarlingVEVO account.

[@joehacker425]

Damn near perfect song

[@fxgillin]

Does anyone know which artist made the symbols on this video and record? Thx.

[@demiandineyazhi440]

this song is like agave soothing the lungs of cat power. so beautiful.

[@cenz2166]

thank you!!

Does anyone know the meaning behind these arrows and symbols from the video? Or are they arbitrary/purely for aesthetic effect? :)

Does anyone know what those symbols means?

[@lirikk6452]

genius...

[@rezadezlopez4467]

Anyone know what these symbols mean?

[@coentertainer]

I can't put my finger on it but she sounds identical to some other singer. It could be just this song as I've never heard any others by her and it's particular in the early parts of the song when she's kind of talk-singing rather than the later parts where she goes into falsetto. Who am I thinking of? It could be Sheryl Crow in the verses of All I Wanna Do but I have a feeling there's someone even more specific....

[@coentertainer]

Oh no wait actually never mind it's Cat Power.

sick production. pleasantly surprised as i, like many of us, was just expectin the same old lame ass acoustic n vocal only combo

[@RayasNegroOvejas]

jim jim lame ass? Once I was an Eagle is anything but. Which is also why it's good she moved on since that album is so good.

[@jimzer]

sorry i dont know her material that well. i heard her music a very long time ago (im talking mystery jets days) and just assumed she was your run of the mill acoustic folk artist. cant believe that was eight years ago... i read this new album's made with the guy who does production for alabama shakes. v v exciting

[@flaviogcastilho]

[@afbdreds]

This reminds me a little Bob Dylan

[@PhillipThunderGrunge]

Raechel you're my 👼, I love you so much

[@perspicaciouscritic]

Good, up until the expected middle 8 section. An artist such as Laura Marling should have the courage to break away from conventional, obvious song structures, as Fiona Apple did on The Idler Wheel Is Wiser than the Driver of the Screw and Whipping Cords Will Serve You More than Ropes Will Ever Do.
