Florence and the Machine : Flakes (Mystery Jets cover)

[rafiinhaperpetua]

Beautiful Music ! Mystery Jets are amazing (:

Florence too !

[mycatsnameishoudini]

Is that Isabella Summers behind the piano?

[SeeGigFilmGigPost]

@mycatsnameishoudini It is indeed!

[vampireturtle]

even if I didn't know her, with a voice like that, I'd stop in awe and listen.

[laurabeanne]

the people who are "running" or "moving away" from the stage are doing so because it is starting to storm! lol

[singforxanthi]

lovely cover

[kemicalromanc15]

I just love herrr. AMAZING VOICEEE

[superhana]

not only is she a virtuosa, she's also a fashionista! <333 my ultimate inspiration/idol. :)

[kieranisthegreatest]

Prefer Mystery jets performing this. However Kudos to florence shes got a top voice!

[lozington95]

shes a great singer, but her voice just does not suite this song. unfotunatley

[Izlandzadi14]

She's wearing the same dress she wore at the park when she sang "my boy builds coffins" :)

[SeeGigFilmGigPost]

@Izlandzadi14 Well spotted! Same dress. Same park. Same day!

[Marticiaa]

@Izlandzadi14 so?

[kamaeabrooking]

Also, why would you not stay and listen to her amazing voice even if you didn't know who she was. Mother fuckers.

[kamaeabrooking]

THIS IS BEAUTIFUL

[xxUltraFreakxx]

The ending is amazing o.o;

[Tommo2135]

Omg great cover. Florence is an awesome singer!

[colosalblack]

I can barely hear the instruments :\

[cristianlp84]

i love flo but blaine sings it with a certain heartbreak that cant be imitated

[BlahBlahRainbowFish]

i ♥ mystery jets

i ♥ florence and the machine

but not so much this cover :(

[GuitarAndMeMusic]

bet those people who just walked past flo + the machine on stage that day, are pretty gutted they didnt stop to listen, look at flo now (:

[SeeGigFilmGigPost]

@GuitarAndMeMusic Yeah, I was thinking the same thing myself the other day. And I bet the people that get up and walk off during the song now say to their friends, "Oh, I saw Florence ages ago...she was amazing!".

[markus310]

@GuitarAndMeMusic why? if they didn't like the act then why would they necessarily like the act now? good marketing? more sales? i reckon those people still don't give a shit aboiut florence and the machine, and fair enough!

[Iwillbetall]

I think she does a brilliant cover of this song! <3

Love Florence!

[mistererd]

Man, I do not like Florence & the Machine!

[OneCoolCookiie]

Record This Cover Me Want :)

[SeeGigFilmGigPost]

@OneCoolCookiie You can already get a studio version of Florence singing Flakes on iTunes. It's not a Florence & the Machine recording though. It is basically a Florence vocal over the original Mystery Jets backing track. It was the b-side to the 7" version of the Jets' single Half In Love With Elizabeth. Search for 'Mystery Jets Florence' and you will find it. It's well worth the 79p!.

[MrCork180]

@OneCoolCookiie

It's on the Expanded Edition of Lungs

[cara1988]

i love this song and i love florence, and i love how she sings it. to be honest, i think the guitar is massively letting her down on this

[irenneair]

I love this song. But, not much excites me this version

[knaepsimon]

what a voice..

[TheTrippingTV]

Florence Leontine Mary Welch and you incredeble Machine are THE BEST!!!!!

[Mattl1234]

Fucking love this version by Flo!!! Cant get enough of her!

[sss104]

i like the way she dresses :))

and sings, off course!

[fudfitter2]

i want to sleep with florence.,she rocks my boat,she could sing to me all night

[SheWasClose]

mystery jets are better.

[Jake0Hussey]

thankyou!

[smokebabysmoke]

When you've had a love affair with both this song plus Florence's music it gives a ridiculously beautiful result.

[Jake0Hussey]

Shes really not even that good. She is just another pointless pop act that will go away in a few months.

[beatlerock100]

@Jake0Hussey Ha! Wrong. this won't go away until the earth does.

[Implosiony]

How could anyone leave in the middle of that?! Stunning!

[unsalted95]

flakes is my favorite song and florence made it even better

but dont get me wrong, mystery jets is still mastaa

[thasurz]

If I had to justify anyone hating on Florence, I'd just have to say they don't understand her. Her music, performance, lyrics, and everything else great about her will live on and hold a special place in anyone's heart who appreciates her phenomenal talent.

[OzzYxBrandI]

@thasurz woah couldnt hav said it better myself... x

[mckenziie09]

you shud hear 'falling' and 'hardest of hearts' by florence, theyre so gud they gave me tingles but u gotta listen all the way through them the best parts are in the middle ;] xx

[blatesKgal]

bird song is powerful too :)

[sillysausagemilly]

beautiful. Florence and the machine never disappoint.

[soapiepops]

Love this its immense...shame the crowds dead.

Though it was nice at these times ...just a little crowd jigging at the front <3

x

[vamprincess112]

Fantastic! I love this song, Mystery jets and Florence and the Machine!

[ztlc19]

ugh

[Nikooo96]

i thought this was great!!! i truely think she has an amazing voice she reeeally does!!! love her x

[BuffTingChickenWing]

eh?

[Rebeccajust]

that is laughable

[karenitelouise]

amazing <3

isa looks a bit bored though, lol!

[SeeGigFilmGigPost]

Haha! See what you mean. She did some crazy dancing to Kiss With A Fist after this though!

[kingserj1]

im in love

[Pablohonayy]

D:

killed it florence

[greatcumberland]

i have that dress! kate moss from topshop

[loner7sevie]

i absolutely love both of them

[MPfilmCreations]

shite

[ellaaabellaaa]

wow!

[scottygroupies]

The Mystery Jets are the best band ever. But, Florence definitely can rock out anything!

[davemanplan]

what is it with all these new singers lily allen kate nash florance that fat one why do they all sing so london and overblown its knobby and shit,we all know londons the greatest city in the uk we dont need dicks like you rubbing it in our faces

[megaokojie]

what a lame comment, it's about time british music started sounding british rather than copying american accents and obviously by the success of these artist and the many minuses on your comment, not many agree with you :)

[sillysausagemilly]

this is brilliant. the mystery jets and florence+machine, a perfect cover.

[goldfishinaglass]

Love the mystery jets, love this song, and I think both mystery jets' version and this are absolutely stunning. : )

[FruscianteLaDes1989]

i like it, buts she's just not blaine

i like the concept tho, but the jets just deliver better :)

x

[dixonboy4]

sounds rather manly lol, whoooooaa whooooaa, not as good as the jets.

[nicoleblake222]

why are people moving around? bloody rude.

I love her, she fab :)

[imogen093]

two of my favourite bands combined!=]!!

[funsize]

She sings this song AMAZINGLY. I can't get enough of her music. She has a great choice in songs to cover but her original material is outstanding. Gwan Flo!

Also - How could those heathens get up and leave. Madness!! Tsk tsk

[ElleLikesDwarfs]

i love her so much. we should get married

x

[Laurennnnn93]

This is soooooo good! She has an amazing voice! I think i love her haha.

[oleypete1]

if you couldnt see what she was doing on the stage it would have been a lot better

[IAINoodle]

Gorgeous song

one of my fav by MJ

she's so pretty x}

[MissBlueEyeliner]

she does it justice...but the starnge hand gestures are too much,I can ttake her seriously like that!...but...two great bands:D

[09newton09]

mystery jets and florence and the machine 2 of my fav bands......adding them just made my life lol :p

[sadams291]

this is my fave song on the album :) their version is so different to the original, still good though, just not as....

[milliepotts]

this is my favourite mystery jets song:) she sings it amazingly.

[C00kiexM0nster]

Goosebumps :)

Lovely song & lovely voice.

[JuiceMonkii]

Gorgeous, my fave Mystery Jets song. Florence does it justice :)

[msrainbow]

anybody have the studio verison? they dont have it on itunes canada

[iRepEast]

I used to dislike them after i heard kiss witha fist.thought it stands for all the feminism rubbish.This is beautiful am mooved to tears. **sobsosb** pass the tissue Guv'nor..

[iRepEast]

A superior hybrid voice between duffy,Adele and Kate nash. Unique songwriting skills listen to Girl with one eye. All current great female voices liquidated in to 1. We demand an Albuuuum!!

[SpUnKyTh3MoNk3y]

girl got skillz for sure and an AMAZING voice but girl with one eye is a cover.

[hannah592]

who sings the original ??

[emmaw1]

Mystery Jets

[nataliebell21]

lol

[lilmouseman]

ummm isnt girl with one eye a cover of a song written by a punk band she likes? she didnt actually write it... heard her say in an interview...

[uberspecialfizz]

incredible.

[philphie]

her voice reminds with of laura marling

[xXclofloXx123]

really? i love laura marlings voice but florences is definitely a lot bigger and more powerful.

this is beautiful, i still prefer the mystery jets version cause nothing could ever beat that, but i reckon this is about as close as anyones gonna get

WHAT ARE THOSE PEOPLE DOING JUST WALKING STRAIGHT PAST???? how???why??? id stop and listen- i SO wish id been there... florence and the machine AND late of the pier

im so annoyed!!

[touchme1234]

Because unfortunatly if its not hyped up, people dont want to know regardless of talent. I agree with everything you said though. She's got one of the most distinctive and powerful voices ive heard in years.

[jessieHORRIFIC]

laura marling's voice is much more gentle and soothing, florence's is a lot stronger and better haha.

but i can see where you're coming from!

[thisisaweirdbus01]

I do like this version, but she sounds like she's forcing it a bit in some places. Quite like her voice in most of it though.

[Maiziemo]

i think this cover is fucking gorgeous

she is a bit ott

but thats what this song is about.

again wikid song.

[mrcrimp89]

That's totally awesome<3

[gampilan]

you just cant beat the mystery jets!

but this is gud

[IndieSoup]

It's really good but she should sing it softer, with out trying to reach higher notes.

It's brilliant though!

[curtisjones123]

dont really know what i tihnk of it

[rahrahrahbear]

this is pretty good, i wasn't expecting much but i'm impressed.

[tomcampbell222]

errr this is fucking terrible...

[loveisanumber]

W-I-C-K-E-D....

love it really good, but i agree it doesnt compare to the MYSTERY JETS.

[LilyyBray]

Amazing ... but no where as good as the original. X
