Pop is not a thing to be feared. The first Spacebomb single from Natalie Prass, "Bird of Prey" hits fierce and fast, moving with a silky, yet propulsive beat. Our calm narrator, resigned to the dark fate of love, moves along with a confident lyrical pace, as flutes dive and weave through stabs of muted horn and an underpinning of easy rolling tack piano. It's difficult to pinpoint any specific time or place; the music simply exists in a protean mist of swirling strings. Prass wraps her glowing voice around the hook and delivers a knock-out jewel of a song, addictive, deep-cut and flat-out timeless. This track and the forthcoming full-length record represent a high point of Spacebomb's collaborative vision: the give-and-take of passionate musical conversation, seamless connection between artist, arrangers and players, honoring the history and putting time into the process to reach a classic new sound.

What really attracts me to this song is that the voice sounds so cutting through the mix. That's for all of the people who think the vocals are too loud. It is a very a effective mix and I find it appealing.

I can understand that some wouldnt like Natalie Prass' voice however I simply adore it and her music and lyrics. Clean, slick and yet so soulful. "My baby don't understand me" is a another favourite not to mention "Plunder" and "Violently"Cannot stop listening.

This is gorgeous!! Her voice is pure and clean and supple and just because she's not a belter doesn't mean she's not terrific... all you haters in the comment thread, wise up.Smaller but exceptionally well-deployed voices can be just as effective and enjoyable as loud brassy ones. (Blossom Dearie?) Her phrasing, emotional investment, and lilting ease are a breath of fresh air.

Her voice reminds me of a ballerina's movements -somewhat rigid but graceful; exact but fluid? (if that makes sense) :)

Very nice came here after seeing on Jools Holland, I love the muted horns and the vibrato she used on the Jools show on the phrase "but to run away". Are the band included in the normal live set-up, anyone know?

I think the voice is just too loud. It's honestly not that bad, it's just loud in comparison to the strength of the song that is the music.
