Do you remember, around 15 years ago, when Bat For Lashes first broke onto the scene? This Pakistani-British singer created haunting, dramatic music. She descended from a squash playing dynasty, and her music inhabited an otherworldly quality in the indie music scene.

In 2012 she had a huge hit with “Laura”, and a few months later when she was in Australia to tour, I invited her to Take 5. It was one of those conversations that has always stayed with me; we bonded over these five songs and it left me flying afterward. Which is why I wanted to bring it to the podcast. From James Taylor to a young Laura Mvula, soak up the sounds of song dedications care of Natasha Khan.

James Taylor - 'Fire & Rain'

Bjork - 'One Day'
