^ Agreed ! :wacky:

I got Grizzly Bear as an opener for Radiohead, but Bat for Lashes would've also been a good choice too. You saw her open for them right?

I've seen her live :P

But I didn't go to that Radiohead concert. I believe she only opened for them in UK? Ahh.. I'm not sure tbh.

On a side note, not many RH fans liked her.

 

edit: I find it amazing that Thom likes her music and that they invited her. I dunno, touring with Radiohead must have been her most amazing experience touring.

ah ok.

 

yeah it'd be quite an amazing experience to be able to tour w/ a band like that.

 

I wonder which one of the band members get to choose who opens for them? Not just RH, but other bands too.

I'm not sure. What got my attention is that I would expect them picking other bands to open, rather than her, but I'm glad that he likes her music with "sex voices on it".

 

I think it's a group decision. I don't think that Thom would approve if Jonny or Phil wanted I dunno.. Gaga to open?

This sounds different from the album version :/..

Actually sounds like the live version :thinking:

Yes it is ! :surprised: So weird but nice nonetheless.

 

Fantastic performance, she's so amazing live :bomb:. And Trophy is such a beautiful song. There is something haunting about it.

What did she say? And did she pronounce it well? :P

 

I think all of her songs have something haunting, I see lots of melancholy in her music, I love it, makes it so real.

She says : "Je suis le petit chevalier, avec la terre dessous mes pieds, je ne veux pas me réveiller. Je suis le petit chevalier, avec le ciel dessous mes yeux. J'irai te visiter, j'irai te visiter."

 

It means : "I'm the little knight with the earth under my feet. I don't want to wake up. I'm the little knight with the sky before my eyes. I'll visit you, I'll visit you."

 

Actually it's not good french but that's what is so cute about english people trying to talk french :nice:. She should have said "sous" instead of "dessous" and "j'irai te rendre visite" instead of "j'irai te visiter". The way she pronounces "réveiller" is pretty bad too, I had trouble understanding it tbh!

 

Yep, I totally agree. It's like her songs all have this unique and melancholic atmosphere.

That's why I asked! Thanks for translating <3

She sounded so cute speaking french <3 it's even cuter the fact that she has trouble with it but still tried <3

 

I can't help it, I love her so much.
