  • She's just amazing...i would put my finger in her pie...even if i had to sleep with one eye open

  • Goosebumps on the arms anyone?

  • @OriginalSunshine goosebumps everywhere!

  • florence's vocals have gotten much better over the last few years.

  • @oitotheworld23 ...as if they were ever anything under excellent.

  • I like her gestures and how she runs her hand through her hair while she sings.

  • the lovely lyrics!

  • I'm in love :)

  • Woah... this was posted in 2007. You can definitely claim that you listened to her before she got famous :)

  • Love this fucking girl! Got Lungs when eye heard the single. Florence surprisingly looks sexier without the orange too!!!

  • I expected her voice to be really crappy when she was live like most modern artists, but she is super super good. For once a singer who is actually an amazing singer! <3

  • Florence is ahhhhhmazing!!!!!

  • You could bust a brick wall with that voice... so powerful.

  • Fantástico! quero um show no Brasil!

  • Comment removed

  • Woah, this is amazing. Florence's music is so lovely! : )

  • There HAD to be some hesitation and later guilt of the people who didn't like this.

  • WOW. This is unbelievebly good. I didn't know this was possible, I truly love you, Florence

  • i love evrything she wears.

  • 1:52 just like flipping blew my mind.

    i searched this video to find out if she could actually do that live,

    and i was obviously not disappointed.

    she is flooring. unbelievable, a jem.

  • I don't even know how it's possible for her to be this amazing.

  • eff, she's good..i can't stand it

  • i'd marry her even though i'm not a lesbian!

  • Would please somebody tell me how the guitarist generates the trill when he plays the F chord?

  • i discovered florence a month ago and i cannot get her out of my head! i play her music in the car, at home, i make my friends listen to her music...cosmic love, girl with one eye, dog days are over, blinding, rabbit heart,....all epic songs sung with an epic voice

  • brilliant

    

  • flawless

  • CHILLS

  • She made love to this song in this performance.

    Breathtaking.

  • awesome

    

  • I love when she lets her accent out at the end.

  • Who is the douche who walks in front of her at 2:57? Cut his little heart out too.

  • LOVE LOVE LOVE!!!

  • The ending is amazing!

  • Recorded in April 05, 2007.

  • @ottojama That's my birthday!

  • Is this a first Florence video in YT?

  • my skinnnnn is covered in goosebumpssssss

  • This is one of the most fun karaoke songs of all time.

  • the most amazing voice i've ever heard...

  • Three years later and she's singing to 100,000 plus at Glastonbury. You have a good eye ;)

  • There is very few people who have talent like this. Reminds me of Sarah McLachlan, because she can actually sing live. If your voice doesn't sound good raw without added effects like so many people today, then you will just disappoint people when they hear you live. I love this song, and Florence + the Machine!

  • I'm seeing her in A MONTH.

    In celebration, I covered this song! Check it out if ya'll have time...it's no way near as amazing as this woman though. Warning!

  • She's so amazing and so talented! I've never heard a voice like hers before, but I'm completely in love with her singing!

  • I'm seeing her live in Denmark in some weeks! I'm absolutely in love

  • 3;35 i feel sorry for the guitarist when he tries to sing, you cant hear him for florences powerhouse voice ! :D i also want to slap him though for getting in her way

  • I am actually IN love with florence welch and her sexy voice

  • I don't really know what this song is about but I LOVE IT!!!

    This performance absolutely gave me chills. When she started yelling, I thought it was gonna get off-key but she is just perfect.

    This might be a little strange, but I got completely turned on watching this. She's just so... passionate. Haha

  • well, these lyrics are quite terrifying Oo

  • @Bloodhound805 the lyrics of this song are freaky, but I love the song anyways!:)

  • I love how she is basically screaming yet she is still in tune O.o

    bought her album the other day man was that a good buy

    every single song is amazing O.O

  • epic

  • Comment removed

  • it's that rare delight of unbelievable sex appeal, talent, and hotness...

  • they are so awesome and she is so hot :)

  • her voice makes me cry... not because the song is sad,

    but because her voice absolutely incredible

  • blooming love her brought the album the day it came out and i love it all xx

  • I just found out about her and I love the album! She's awesome, just the kind of music I've been waiting for!

  • i love how she is so good and so powerful that when the guy comes to the mic to sing you cant hear him at all

  • Love her........

  • deffinetly she is anti Christ

  • She gave my life a new sense, really. Her music is just magical. I love it!

  • I´m addicted to her music. I listened to Lungs I don´t know how many times and it still hasn´t lot a bit of its magic...Love her!

  • she is FABULOUS. she looks lovely too :) x

  • She was in a band called Ashok (google "Florence Welsh" and listen. it's undeniably her)

    Some band members are now in a band called Eyes On Film

  • Her voice is sooo powerful and still she can control it, LOVE her!!!

  • fantastic! she's great!!

    i like her clothes:)

  • What a Diference one year can make!!

  • oh god i love her.

  • Anyone got an accurate tab for this song? I worked out the chords but the little lick-y strum patterns i can't work out

  • What a voice.

  • beautyful

  • I really agree with you NightRocker, 2:39 to 3:02 is so damn good.

  • Waaaay better than the album version.

  • i like the way she says "thank you very much" at the end lol.

  • Amazing. Sexiest part is she doesn't even appear to be trying

  • she is amazing. full stop!

  • This is a serious question: Is Florence a lesbian?

  • Most the album is about her breakup with her boyfriend (but they're now back together, which she's mentioned on numerous occasions makes it kind of awkward). So, no.

  • i think she might be bi.she was asked in an interview if she kissed a girl and said of course,,and then sort of trailed off. hmm.

  • No she doesn't. In fact she has a boyfriend. She didn't wrote the song it's from a punk band that never recorded it

  • She has a boyfriend but she could always be bisexual- who knows? This song was written by a band she knew though, she just covered it.

  • @cuttlefisch No, no she is not

  • Why? Does that make her less good? She's amazing! Who cares if she's gay or straight?

  • No it does'nt!! I think Florence is absolutely fantastic, and her album is possibly the best debut album I have ever heard. For the record, I have absolutely nothing against lesbians at all. It's just there are rumours about her sexuality that I was asking about, that's all. Don't bite my head off, people!!

  • it is a cover, search for my boy builds coffins and she talks about her songs. its a cover of a punk song.

    I cant get enough of florence she is best thing iv heard in years.

  • @rachiebabe22  the band is the the ludes so go check there version

  • are you sure it's a cover...i cant find it

  • @Jay41 I believe the band never actually recorded the song, but florence liked it, so she did. On the album, she's not given the credit for writing the song

  • 0.0.....wow.....thats all... ^.^'

  • brilliant!!!

  • this is a cover of the ludes, though in my preference florence is ten times better. no need to put a thumbs down on comments saying its a cover.

  • Reminds me a little of Grace slick in Jefferson Airplane. Florence... when she was just small!!

  • Perfect vocals, wonderfully played guitar, Spot on song choice for the pair. 10/10

  • wow i didn't realise the machine part of florence and the machine was so fit :O

  • I have to hear something so good a long time ago. Thank you thank you thank you!

  • This song is acutally a cover, but the lyrics definitly fits good to this band.

  • this Flo And The Mash song is indeed a cover, so why the minus 3, people?

  • WOW!! 0_O Amazing Voice, Lyrics & Such Passion!!!

  • the way the title is I thought this was the woman from that movie machine girl but its obvious it is not and I reread the title o well

  • One of my favourite songs of hers/theirs

    And to hit those notes live is awesome!

  • this song is so good!!!! amazing!! I honestly can't believe she's so young.

  • I just saw her a few hours ago. I'm still in shock. It was the BEST hour or so of live music I've ever experienced

  • Well I'd like to hear you fucking make that so called "awful drone" because I think its bloody brilliant. So stop complaining about a voice that is amazing and worth a tonne more than your pitiful existince

  • I never claimed to be a singer of any sort. But There are plenty more talented live singers. And as for a pitiful existence, ask the 1000s of commuters I get to work in the morning think of my existence! (Rail engineer)

  • stotheh, this isn't the x factor. it's quirky and different which forms the basis of its appeal. well, for me anyway. if u prefer leona lewis..... whatever floats your boat mate :p

  • wow.WOWOHWOW. favorite song-everevereever. love hit

  • its a cover from a punk band she used to follow around, although i couldn't find the original anywhere. she says this another video, i think the my boy builds coffins interview/performance in a park if you know what i'm talking about

  • I say we hunt around for it cuz I heard that interview too and it's really been pissing me off not knowing. Apparently it was written by a bunch of Photographers. Haha. 3 guys named Matt Allchin, Dave Ashby & James McCool. They probably were too crappy to release or record it. But the quest still continues.

  • thse guys are in a band called rum shebeen. i think they wrote a fair bit of her album. they're a great band

  • The confidence she has..

    Amazing, I'm going to see her in Bournemouth in September :D

  • one awesome performance she has a sweet voice

  • I am blown away.

    She really puts her all into it.

    Freaking love it!

  • wow.

  • How anyone can say she can't sing is a joke.

    Jealousy,it must be. The emotion in that performance is absolutely fantastic! Go Flo!! =] xx

  • my brother dared to say that she has a crappy voice. i'll let you know when his nose heals up.

    but anyways, this is incredible. the part from 2:39-3:02 gives me chills EVERY SINGLE TIME. i cant wait til she tours the US, i'll be there, front row. it's amazing how she can move people so emotionally through her music...

  • my brother said that too >:(

  • omg. that was amazing? you say it was a cover from her ex boyfriend? it was like, the best i've heard her sing. just making me like her band more+more now! x

  • no, she wrote it

  • she's making me REALLY like her band right now.

    One of my favs at the moment.

  • how many singers can sing exactly same live as on the record? that is talent that we are watching right here x

  • Truly amazing voice! Love their album!

  • i've got goosebumps :)

  • Gosh, me too :)

  • wow what a phenominal voice!

    i love her loads shes such a powerful artist x

  • It's a cover of a song that her ex-boyfriend was in. I forget the name. They played it live but never recorded it. The background for all the songs on the album are on their website

  • Apparently she/they are supporting blur tonight in Manchester. This is the first time i've heard them. They seem O.K.

  • more than okay mate, you need to listen to more of their stuff, most of its amazing.

  • fan#1 . They are superb.Might as well come to Hide Park and see her supporting Blur again.

  • her movements give so much flare to the song!

  • The great thing about her is that her live performances sound the same as on the album

  • i love her voice so much.

  • she is actually amazing.

  • Shit I don't want anyone's finger in my pie either. I love this song.

  • if your a dude,then you must mean your brownie.;~^

  • Don't know why she's copping flack for the lyrics/meaning to this song, I thought it was a cover? By the Ludes?

  • Does anyone know where I can find the original song??

  • Uh she's the best. They rock!

  • a male Nick Cave?....?

  • STAB THE EYE!!

  • love this song! its very powerful. just read the lyric. does anyone know what the lyrics are meant to represent and the story behind it?
