Her stare is so haunting in this. She is just on a different level than most of us.
Amazing. This song just does something to me. Some sort of high. I can't explain. Fans of this song. I know you know.
Oh yes.
Angle Mirajes Some journeys cannot be shared. We are blessed to hear what angels speak about during their coffee breaks.
I've listened to this song every day since it was released pretty much....it's on my nighttime playlist that I listen to before bed too. This and Titus Groan.
I’m shocked, and i mean it’s ‘2019’ so you know ...
Her dark eyes are so beautiful and mysterious
art expressed in voice echos in eternity, whispering in the wind
Lyrics for your convenience ...
He's a hunter, he's a good man,
Be brave when he brings you nothing home
He's a hunter and a good man,
Be brave when he brings you nothing home
In the garden you are Adam and Eve,
You don't need me.
In the garden you are Adam and Eve,
You don't need me
I am bleeding in the river,
She knows I do not run
I am bleeding in the river,
She knows I do not run
He's a hunter, he's a good man,
Be brave when he brings you nothing home
He's a hunter and a good man,
Be brave when he brings you nothing home
In the river he has fallen,
His blood begins to run
In the river he has fallen,
His blood begins to run
He's a hunter, he's a good man,
Be brave when he brings you nothing home
He's a hunter and a good man,
Be brave when he brings you nothing home
Video is fantastic. Song is exceptional..album is fully captivating.
He’s a hunter and a good cat
Be brave when he brings you a mouse home.
From the starting,, always loved Aldous,🔥🙏🐶👁️🦩🌀❤️🐓🌈🌹🦋🌻🦅😎
Devastatingly beautiful. Aldous and City oh Sigh are my two favourite Kiwi groups/artists right now. We truly have so much talent right now and it's great to see small record companies mixing it with wonderful sounds like this. :-)
kiwi's rock,thank god we have great artist's in our land
She's unlike anything else. ❤
So I bought a LP vinyl off Spunk Records, and received a free compilation CD called 'Tropical Punch'. This song was included on that CD and it absolutely blew me away. Love you Spunk Records for your freebies.
MASTERPIECE.

I want an Irish Wolfhound so bad now!
I met a lovely one in a pub over the hill from Wellington close to Masterton NZ. Late morning driving back from Castlepoint, stopped when the pub was still busy opening. Stunning weather a warm spring day. He was called Paddy, of course.
Tis good. Tis good.
I take it as the dog is her loyal, loving partner but he's no longer bringing her any meat...in-fact it's the other way around. She loves him but is listless. The old man is that partner when he's older. The arty, smoky guy is a cliche sexy fling that momentarily makes her feel sexy again, he gives her the gun to end her relationship. When she goes to the house she sees the dog and also the old man sitting alone, she shoots him / the dog? And then in doing so finds the terrifying truth that she's actually the hunter and is sitting alone now at the dinner table. There's a look that it was a mistake, which juxtaposes the lyrics and tone of the song which very much encourage the listener to be brave and end a relationship that no longer satisfies.
Or maybe she never shoots
The hunt continues for originality Now it is found again.

I discovered Aldous Harding yesterday--quite by accident--and I've already bought two of her albums. And I don't like folk.
Yes! Folk is difficult for me. Yet I am in Her trap. There's never enough, and She always gives everything.
This isn't folk.. it's Aldous Harding.
I will translate this clip and song in my on fanciful interpretation : {I will edit due to rewatching to add anything relevant}
The girl Hanna in this story lives a ‘normal’ life but wonders on things like ‘the universe’ and all of these other esoteric questions and is trying to make sense of the life she has in the place that she is.
The entity she goes and sees for his / her part has been ‘marked for death’ {to use Emma Ruth Rundel language} the family members of Hanna have been selected {among others} to carry out the job , these family members could have been selected for their various ‘physic powers’ or simply as known ‘killers’ this is the reference to ‘hunter’ the entity does not undertake such activities but due to its existence makes for a target by others, due to the ‘hostile’ nature of the consensus/ planet.
The wolf hound is significant because the entity is associated such animals and other variants.
So the entity finds Hanna and simply offers her a deal, it’s completely her choice, if she eliminates the people that are scheduled to terminate the entity, he/she will grant her anything she wants in regards to her dreams of becoming a ‘successful musician’ and then after that other aspects like answers to some of the questions she has, basically the ‘level up’ equivalent of winning the cosmic lottery.
The entity lets the offer stand, and she then goes and knocks on the door and agrees , the deal is sealed in a sexual way and he /she makes a sketch of Hanna, this is important, due to it is the way that ensures that all the Xp Hanna experiences is duplicated and returned to her so it really is a ‘win win’ from that perspective it is not a form of ‘possession’ if Hanna is telegraphing that in later art, it is likely because her ‘IQ’ I.e Xp has risen such that she finds it amusing to ‘play with the kids’ so to speak.
After the sketch duplicate is completed, she then carries out her side , there is also a image of ‘Mary’ above her bed {significantly}
The last scene is her contemplating the gravity of the situation. Due to the the separation of the experience and the forwards progression of time /XP, once she gains the larger view she would likely understand more.
The entity appears how Hanna idealistic visions, however would not appear as such after her XP rises.
The black lace necklace represents that the offer stands as is so the whole clip is her considering it , also the fly in the web at the beginning is significant, due to the XP aspects.
Only someone with the understanding could make a clip / song like this.
How High is a Chinaman
Wtf..? Where did they become entities with psychic powers? What the fuck is Xp? What are you on about? I'm curious... only a person knowing nothing of what you just said could have written a song like this.
My interpretation:
*This woman is fed up with her life due to unknown reasons. The old man she holds at gunpoint seems to be the person she holds responsible for her bad situation.
*she is offered a way out by the guy who draws her picture but she's told that she needs to get rid of the old guy by her very own hand. She seems to wish for freedom but is still following the orders of just another, likely being manipulated. Seen by the way he holds power over her in the drawing scene.
*Whether or not she pulled the trigger she's in deep shit after the act of pointing the gun at the guy. And she knows that that she's in the deep shit.
Dark
Additionally other interesting aspects from a ‘common universe’ law perspective
Hard to explain but due to a merger which is both temporary and permanent if ‘Hanna’ wishes and at her discretion
At the point she took the action she was ‘merged’ with the Entity so if any reader has any ability to do basic math then this means that a parent or parents have now been scheduled {and agreed} to kill their daughter.
Due to the linearity of time on this vector there is always a ‘first action’ and in this whole equation the first action was the group of people or person that dictated that a ‘parent’ should kill / terminate a daughter, then after that , the ‘parent’ the defensive action is the action took by the daughter.
So back to basic math under ‘universal common law’ that is self defense, which will work it’s way back to the original action. {no doubt}
i'll say a stand out voice wow
it's like Kate Bush, Bjorn and the girl from The Knife had a baby...and Emma Roberts.
Lina Wertmüller would be proud. Phenomenal work...the song is not bad either, lol
be brave..
this
i want the tabs for this,
Umm...I will send you a packet of cigarettes if your that desperate.
Aldous (Huxley Thomas) Harding. She is intriguing. I wonder was this her actual home, dog, gun, ex dad etc.
geeeeeeeezzzzzzzzzz Why i want to know such of things? you looks Like someone whith a owfull secret, don`t you?
I know for a fact the young guy is her ex.
what kind of dog is in the clip ?
Irish Wolfhound
@@cygnusrays how do you know the dog was Irish ?
@@keithwigley1256 I don't know, how do you know?
Not liking the gun part but love the music and her.
Maybe the Father had advanced Parkinsons or Alzheimers disease? Some folks can't cope and that's sad... let them live.
Na hunters are mean they be killing cute animals for no reason
Not for "no reason" we eat them as well and wear their skin as a funny hat 😋
Suprised in 2 videos someone is smoking. Hope its a fake cigarette.
why would u?
@@Belsinef Cigarettes are obv unhealthy and espiecally for a singer who has to use their lungs a lot
@@ryansoats581 and? I'm a soker too and it's her own decision. Many singers are smoking and its obviously bad, like many other things too, but sometimes it gives the voice a unique touch.
@@Belsinef Anyone can make a decision. But we are allowed to question it obviously. Aldous Harding is an amazing artist, but obviously drugs can have a major impact on a singer's life in general, not just how they sound. A lot of singers have died from drugs. And even if cigarettes aren't that bad there is still risk involved. And I don't think in any case should we be praising smoking and saying it adds to the artist. You don't need smoking to sound unique. Aldous already sounds unique.
RyeOats calm down, she is not Amy Winehouse. I am smoking too but I hate heavy chemical drugs and don’t feel the need to take them. It’s her decision, she is old and smart enaugh, I’m sure. Maybe her voice even sounds the way it sounds, because she smokes? U may question it, but ur comment is stupid. Maybe she is not even smoking in Gerberal but doing it it for the video and the esthetic. Just saying.
i dont like this song tbh bcuz all i hear is "he's a hunter, he is bla bla" and the lyric keeps on repeating
I think context is pretty important in what she's trying to convey by repeating that lyric over and over. Is she convincing herself (or us) something?
It's also in the style of a traditional folk song, and they tend to be a bit cyclical.
C'mon Annabelle, have a little more consideration and open up your mind to the beauty of repetition that surrounds our daily lives.
it's called a chorus
No one cares what you don’t like . We gather here to talk about how much we do enjoy Aldous. Go listen to Taylor Swift then. That way all of us who appreciate this beautiful song and you , who could care less ... are both happy .
