Daniel (Bat for Lashes song)
"Daniel" is a song by English recording artist Bat for Lashes, from her second studio album, ''Two Suns''. It is her best selling single to date, selling over 46,000 copies worldwide. The song was announced as the lead single from ''Two Suns'' in January 2009, then released as a digital download single on 1 March 2009, and as a 7" vinyl single on 6 April 2009. The track was written by Natasha Khan and produced by David Kosten, as with all tracks on the album. Ira Wolf Tuton from Yeasayer provided the bass lines for the song and Khan did the rest of the instrumentation herself.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 Daniel )〕 Khan said in an interview with ''The Sun'' newspaper that "Daniel" is based on a fictional character that she fell in love with as a teenager.
The single's cover features Khan with an image of the character Daniel LaRusso, from the film ''The Karate Kid'', painted on her back. A character much like LaRusso also features at the end of the music video which goes with the song. The B-side of the 7" is a cover version of a 1980 single by The Cure.
==Reception==
''Digital Spy'' said that "Daniel" is "probably the most immediate thing Khan has recorded. Both synthy and mystical-sounding, and filled with poetic lyrics about "marble movie skies" and "the smell of cinders and rain," it could almost pass for a lost Stevie Nicks track from the early eighties. Khan's velvety voice, meanwhile, remains as enchanting as ever, so here's hoping a few more people get to hear it." ''NME'' said the song "relives ghostly memories of her first love and sounds like Fleetwood Mac's "Rhiannon" filtered through the weeping circuits of a broken-hearted android." Gigwise said "a poppy work of kosmik disko à la Empire of the Sun as a sexy working of electric violin and vocal overdubs are strapped to the beats and bones of a mythic love song."〔()〕 Pitchfork Media likewise gave it a highly positive reception, awarding the single 9/10, describing the vocals in the song as "alternately commanding and fragile" and describing the song as "her 'Running Up that Hill'." At the end of the year, Pitchfork also rated "Daniel" the 4th best song of the year. The video for "Daniel" was named the 11th best video of the year by ''Spin Magazine'' in their "Top 20 Best Videos of 2009" countdown.〔(Spin Magazine Online: The 20 Best Videos of 2009 )〕
