Florence and The Machine - BBC Introducing at SXSW

[kittykatzluvpopmusic]

Woah. The awesome beginning of Between Two Lungs!!!! Flo can make pianos sound awesome. :D <3 O_O

[KHnaruto29]

"You're lucky! And, you know... unlucky." haha she's awesome

[BluePennyLane]

Wow. Just wow. Pretty sure no one else in the world sounds this good live. I mean her voice. Her FUCKING VOICE

[cannothinkofusername]

I am so glad this was recorded and is out there in the public domain! :) thank you!

[XxSozziexX]

I'd say they were very lucky ;)

This is one of my favourite songs...xx

[Gaaragigi]

D: Which song was this?



[thasweetwalrus]

@Gaaragigi between two lungs

[aleexandthemachine]

Ii sometimes wonder why she hasnt married me yet.

[ivysaurr]

sound hat yellow man.

omg <3

[anchorbasic]

3:01 - 3:07 makes my day better

[jtlain]

This version is way better than the finished published product.

[bowtiesarecool]

She seemed nervous.

[elaineypops]

@bowtiesarecool she said that playing in front of small crowds was more nerve-wrecking than big crowds.

[Florencegirl345]

I WILL NEVER GET TIRED OF HER VOICE!!!!!!!!!!

[Dyv4bkz]

LOL

[stepgree]

Nice legs!

[MostFruitfulYuki]

omg Florence are you the cutest ever because I think so

[GreenCrayon321]

I would like to marry her. That is all.

[FingerScam]

My godess

[FingerScam]

My god

[xiheartzacefron94x]

Awww look how far she's come :')

[KikaWNR]

Love how she shakes her body ;]. I'm not a pervert, I just think it's cute ;].

[romantiklyWRECKED]

i love this. so much.

[fthrsragexmthrslove]

She is ever so unique, man I love her.

The fact she wrote that all by herself and recorded it and now that very song is on the record...I mean it sounds pretty much the same. She's SO talented!

[mollyjayne2k7]

She looks so badass on that snare drum xDDD I love her <3

[codidiable]

what i like about florence is that she's so simple and pure and genuine, but yet so complex in her musical talent. And it seems to me she's out there only to jam and have fan with music, not to reach success or money or what else. she's honestly her, and she's so an amazing personality you can't help but loving her. i mean... she's fresh air. thank you flo. i hope music business won't spoil your gentle soul. take care of your self. so much love.

[CeliNi68]

Her voice is so good!

[MegaBabyboo12345]

hahahahaha.

i fucking love florence!

shes so funny!! like sereously its no far cuz she dont even try. /:

haha

[SimOone92]

Omg I Love Flo <3 She's so funny =D

[MassacreAtMe]

Thats so freaking amazing! Incredible lungs pun intended xD

[MrHenrick1]

This is why I hate Britains got talent. Who needs Simon Cowell to say anythins good? Real talent will get out by itself!!!

[guscus69er]

man i love flo

[MaggieFruzia]

huge lungs she has, that little Florence... :D Thought the voice on the album was a little "made" but now I nead to say "sorry" cause the live performance of this song is just brilliant - I was wondering if it was years of practice or just huge lungs to make sounds like that -without any "mixing machine" help. .. so there it is - now I know why the album is named like that :D

[SeanSisco]

The crowd seems like they don't care too much while she's talking. I couldn't just stand there and listen to that. I would want, no NEED, to clap or dance with her. Haha. Or at least jump. And while she's talking, I'd talk back. This really is a great song. She has such a brilliantly amazing voice that captures serenity, power, love, and happiness all in one. Just... Amazing.

[rareflorence]

that little fluke at 2:56 is so adorable xD

[Meganx3Neil]

outstanding :)

[darrenlloyd2008]

'Between Two Lungs.' It's on her album 'Lungs.'

[brujahorrenda]

what is the name of this song?

[giftsofunknownthings]

BAD ASS!!!!!!!!!

[ali50507]

Wow she is amazing!

[psawyer20]

She's just all kinds of awesome, I totally have a girlcrush on her xD lol you don't see people as unique as her nowadays

[Phalah]

So emotionally voice

[PhilistineTheArtLuvr]

When I first heard of Lady Ga Ga people were like, "Wow, she's so weird and different, etc. etc" Unfortunately, it turns out that she is so as far as how she dresses up. When I heard her sing I was like, "You gotta be kidding me, another Britney Spears wannabe!"

And now I find out about Ms. Welch who dresses up normally but, oh yes, her music IS different.

Thank you Ms. Welch for being yourself.

[tomashize]

Great Legs to!

[tomashize]

Shes so sweet

[cctps]

Just incredible. She does this so effortlessly. A great breath of fresh air when all we have is rap and people who don't write their own music.

[Mystique70321]

I love this singer!

[ShonaJohnson11]

I have this on cd i love it so much! :)

[Kurtaddict]

Were you aware at this very moment, it was about to become almost the name of the album?

Well, it's interesting to see your evolution:) You're not so bad at playing instruments^^

Can't wait to see you in Lyon!

[shakukan]

she kinda reminds me of phoebe from friends whats the name of the song

[Pimvandelft1]

@shakukan this is 'Between two lungs' my fav:)

[xhiltonx]

smelly cat smelly cat

[KHnaruto29]

@xhiltonx dude totally thought the exact same thought! Oh my God i'm not alone! I love Florence and she reminds me a lot of Phoebe from Friends.

[bushka5]

I like the fact that the audience go's quiet when she starts to sing

[andersoneuan84]

Very Gifted lady, she got a Beautful voice!!!

[eigges]

Great to find this on a random search, worth the initial rambling and how can someone sing like that when seeming so pissed??

[Macfire999]

Glad I stumbled on this! Brilliant to hear this so raw. Love her voice

[KypHeM]

amazing

[MintPrower]

cool!

lawl XD its funni at the end wen she sez "your lucky!...or unlucky!"

[AdamMahieddine333]

[Thelovelyvear]

[Frankethy]

[monted91]

[sdf808]

I have soooo much more respect for gingers now

[dannyg21660]

just awesome - you can do no wrong

[JennehTuk]

between two lungs! brilliant!

seriously flo, i could be your slightly younger twin. we should meet up and form a duo. i sing too. :)

[downtownnewtown]

she is just outstanding. Amazing.

[EdLovesEin]

I love her so much..one of the few singers who sound just as good live as the do on CD

[3030claire]

wooow. she's not drunk at all.....

[danakalee]

i was disappointed with the version of this on the album. it's a little over produced. i know she says here its a work in progress, but i love the simplicity of this version and how it gives her voice room to fly and also showcases the lyrics. i hope she always plays it live like this.

[nickmccann1234]

same i think some of the songs are too over produced like this and hurricane drunk

[bohemien]

awesome

[DuncanDonuts3]

Hoo.

She's very Hot.

*fans self*

[Natz6]

haha love her! shes amazing!

[TheVideofreek1]

The song on the ad is Dog Days, i can't remember what the ad was for either,,,,

[moviemaestro001]

[ZaraAce]

it was for deadly 60 or something. :)

[TheBALLYFERMOT]

[willshagforcake]

the o2 ad?

[Bexedoo]

the begining is wierd but she rocks :D

[Berserker666]

That's one of the most vulgar things I've read on youtube. Kudos.

[CutOfYourJibFilms]

I'm really curious what Sound Hat Yellow Man looks like.

[karatekween33]

"this goes on for about another half an hour so you can stop it"

"you were so my guinea pigs, i'm sorry, but it had to be done! thanks... THAT'S NEVER BEEN HEARD BY ANYONE ELSE BEFORE, YOU'RE LUCKY!... and, you know, unlucky"

FLORENCE=MASTER OF HILARIOUS QUOTES.

[moviemaestro001]

"I hope I remember the words" :)

Luv Florence + The Machine

[karatekween33]

"sound, hat... yellow man"

LMAO i love the new album, every single song on it could easily be a successful single. but if i had to choose a favourite it would be "blinding".

cheers to the florence fans!

[lovematt321321]

@karatekween33 yea blinding is so such a great wonderful amazing wonderful song i like it much too

[FortitudoProductions]

@karatekween33 I like Drumming song best!!! :D

[zome1gettoknow]

She reminds me a LOT of Jefferson Airplane.

[marijn007]

[stutaggart]

[hannah592]

love this song , i have it on my ipod :D

[Vintagetwilighter]

sort of folk and gospel i think. she is great!

and very pretty =)

x

[andwhatever991]

what genre is her music ?

shes awesome.

i think its indie-pop but im not sure :S

[itchycitizen]

forget bout genres, its music just enjoy without putting it in context , leave all that shit to Itunes !

[bobbywhu1966]

lol omg, i had to sign in just to agree with that!

so many people these days are obsessed with genres...is it alternative/pop or alternative/post-war pop electro folk?

[itchycitizen]

cool !

[ultrasonic55]

100% agree. Good music is good music. The media/ marketing types are shit scared of something they can't label or understand. They think we are stupid as they are.

[paintingfool]

I found you on myspace and this tune is just...breathless...an omnipotent tune to listen when on a bike ride, you my lady bring out the susan boyle in all of us. many thanks and good fortune. Texas loves you.

[orlaalro]

at the beginning of this clip she'd fool u into thinkin she was just an amateur,

But Jesis. Everything she duz is just incredible.

[galaxia437]

reminds me janis joplin to....but better....lol

[Nordwestmecklenburge]

Was für eine Stimme, genial!

[jorgesantoine24]

Totally cool

[thesmylexfrontG]

jesus she has the most beautiful voice

[wilbo206]

judging from the singles/demos i've heard from florence this and last year, lungs is going to be a pretty fucking incredible album. this song, even "half-finished", is just sublime.

[mugglebronpics]

lol..and she apologized?!?! i wish i was that...uh...bad?...lol...i love her

[alexfralexmelonwax]

i love her!

[fluker42]

very very......very ...very good lass.... hypnotic n slight trippy... damn good voiice kid.. damn good voice

[acusticadam]

this song made me discove and love her!!!!

[rimarox]

Just when it seems Florence just cannot get any better...

She produces a diamond like this.

x

[keano6t9]

Marry me...

[easypeezy88]

very regina spector-esque... mixed with amy mcdonald...yes, i like that comparison

[charvaboy]

[mouthbleed]

[benathil]

Does anyone know the name of that amazing song and where I can get itß

[snoyl393]

Between two lungs

[phlegmnface]

i love you!

[maddykinyeah]

(y)

[ColisaChuna]

Can everyone tell me the lyrics from 2:50min to the end?

Thxs

[maddykinyeah]

i cant find them anywhere either, but from ear : between two lungs it was released, the breath that passed from you to me. that flew between us as we slept, as if from your mouth into mine it crept. beacuse it was stretched(?) between two lungs it was. stretched (?) between two lungs. gone are the days of begging, the days of theft. no more gasping for a breath. the air has filled me head to toe, and i can see the ground far below. i have this breath and i hold it tight.........

[jodiejodjod]

i always thought it was 'that slipped from your mouth into mine it crept'

aaand 'trapped between two lungs'

[maddykinyeah]

.............and i keep it in my chest with all my might.

i pray to god that this breath will last,

as it pushes past my lips as i fall (?)

between two lungs it was released,

the breath that passed from you to me.

i hope this helps :)

[biennialist]

Wow, so they each had one lung. amazing

[maddykinyeah]

yup, seems so (y)

[biffandrews]

i thought she said between two lungs it was released so they got 2 each i think anyway you could be right i dunno?

[iiConverse]

florenceeeeeeee! can't wait to see you at victoria park :D

[LegoMantis]

[imogen093]

[pigeondetectivesrock]

[yeoman2k1]

[artistique01]

[stellaviolens]

This is not the kind of act i'd like but it seems F&M are very likely to gain a lot of attention this year.

[heavenwithin81]

I love this I love soosoo much. I love creative people that can carry emotion through so strongly. Powerful joy and depth love it.

[Alcobendos]

Some things are to short, some things are good to be short... you can feel in by yourself.

[The1Rausch]

WOW. Awesome. Wow... Imagine her with this song and an orchestra... wow... amazing.

[georgiovids]

She's like a female version of the Mystery Jets' front man.

A duet between them would be brilliant!

[sittingonwetpaint]

that woman is stunning!

this is my favourite song.
