So far Natasha Khan’s given us a couple of compelling Two Suns videos: “Daniel” went for a sinister modern dancing (and Karate Kid) vibe and “Pearl’s Dream” found Khan in winged form-fitting garb performing opposite an evil blond twin, a wolf, and lots of smoke and steam. For “Sleep Alone,” we see Khan in her bed alone and not liking it. Unable to sleep, she hits the street — also alone — before becoming transfixed by a black and white love scene/variously colored lights and plastics. Here, she heads back to the apartment, whips out the arts and crafts supplies, and works on a solution to her loneliness. Like the other two clips, it moves with an appealing dream logic.

The Mercury-nominated Two Suns is out via Astralwerks.

    This album is still tops. This is probably the most visually appealing of her videos from this album.

  3. She should lose some weight, nice music though.

  4. My favourite song of the album! Every time I listen to it I fall in love again…her music is so colourful & dreamy…excited to hear more from her!

    Hey Nordy – that’s the douchiest thing to say. Ever. Plus, I saw her play and she’s probably one of the most beautifully, talented women I’ve ever seen! That actually goes without saying.

  6. I am only a lukewarm fan of Bat For Lashes, but i’ll be damned if she doesn’t have the best music videos in the game right now.
