So Bat For Lashes didn’t win the Mercury Prize then? That’s a shame, but of all the artists she’s probably the one that’s gained most from the affair. She went from “Bat for who?” to “I can’t believe she didn’t win” in two months. That she became favourite by the end of the betting shows how much these new listeners loved the amazing Fur & Gold. Still having a flutter on the winner of the Mercury is like put money on the Grand National – the whole affair is totally random. We still believe that our gigs writer Ben won his £250 on the Klaxons by luck alone. But Bat For Lashes was the real winner. The skeleton gloves are yours if you want them Natasha.
