There is something about Bat for Lashes' "Daniel" that just set hearts afire this year. Perhaps it was the Ralph Macchio tattoo on the single cover art. Perhaps it was the beautifully misty music video. Or maybe it's the mysterious romanticism that permeates the track. Cloaked in shadow and fog, eerie synths and pulsating drums, "Daniel" is beautifully rich with moody texture. Natasha Kahn's ethereal vocals convey longing beautifully. With a Gothic tinge, "Daniel" can't help but invite comparisons to Kate Bush or even the Concrete Blonde, yet Kahn's romantic yearnings remain fresh and captivating nonetheless.
