The musical lovechild of Leonard Cohen and Joni Mitchell. Arguably the most poetic lyricist of this generation. The flow and rhythm of her words is so brilliantly Cohen-esque, yet simultaneously contain the heart of Joni Mitchell. Criminally underappreciated artist.

Respectfully, let's stop using 'Joni Mitchell' to describe every female songwriter.

Respectfully, please don't assume that I do this to describe every female songwriter. Female artists like Taylor Swift are constantly being compared to Mitchell, which is tiresome. That I can agree on. Marling is the only time I've compared a contemporary songwriter to Joni, so your statement is rather meaningless if we consider the context here.

Every Shoutbox for a female songwriter has the same 'she's Joni' comments and I'm tired of it. That's all. If anyone, Laura Marling only reminds me of Dylan. Cheers!

Damn, she's sooo good! I wasn't expecting Once I Was An Eagle to be that good. I'm kinda new into her work. What do you folks think of this album I mentioned and the others?

That's a great album. Well, I love them all, but Master Hunter and Undine in particular are just so sharp. I have a soft spot for I Speak Because I Can but her new albums are just as good.

My favourites besides Once I Was An Eagle are I Speak Because I Can and Song For Our Daughter. But all her stuff is amazing, really. One of the very few artists who doesn't have a single dud in her discography, imo.

I remember being captivated by her first two albums when they first came out (and they've aged like fine wine), but then didn't keep up with her subsequent releases for some reason. Wow, she's been productive – and now I've got a lot of catching up to do!

Honestly a complete powerhouse if we're being honest. If you look at how many iterations she's gone through being only 31 years old it is so impressive and in some regards, although also it feels like the phrase means nothing, beyond her years. Her lyricism astounds and devastates me in the same blow, and you know each piece of accompaniment will be wild, and to the point where it's barely comprehendible. Hope the next release is what gets the brit award back in marling's hands again <3

Я одна была сильно удивлена, когда узнала, что Лора довольно молодая? Когда я только открыла для себя ее творчество, ей было лет 26, но по песням и не скажешь. Я сначала дала ей лет 35. Если что это комплимент))

She's such an immense talent, it confounds me that she isn't a household name. A voice like an angel, who plays her guitar like she's possessed by the devil. She's only a few years older than me but carries the wisdom of someone decades older. Endlessly creative and overwhelmingly impressive.

Folk music was never really a vehicle to achieve celebrity. But she's well known and respected where it matters and I don't think she would have it any other way

I've been trying to figure this out :( It's weird because her last two albums are on in full, but then the older albums are partially missing

Someone messaged Laura on Instagram about this, and she put in her story that she is aware of it and has contacted Spotify to try and figure out why it is happening

There is no describing how incredible her discography is. The only questionable song is "Interlude."
