It's kind of ironic that on a forum for such an uplifting song there would be so much vitriol expressed against Florence and the Machine. Clearly you haven't intuited the message of the song.

my 8 yr old daughter was just singing this whilst playing the wii,
told her half the story of me dancing with a cpl of thousand ppl to this song at 4 am in the morning in a huge big tent. i hope she never knows the full story lol
@xtom1973 i thought i was the only person who was noticing that Florence is always slightly off key. I don't think she's bad though, i still think she has a powerful voice and her version of this isn't bad, just different. Having said that, I think that says more about how great this track is than how good Florence is. I mean if she can still make it sound pretty good then it must be a f**king good track.
@xtom1973 you make me mad. auto-tune is the killer of soul. it is a singer's flaws, especially florence, which makes them great. the loss of control only accentuautes the passion and energy florence puts into her performances, and she is a stupidly good singer. perfection isn't real.....perfection is in imperfection. flo = perfect example.
Whether your faith is strong, or you feel no faith at all, this track is spiritual and unlocks something within us that somehow is intangible yet everpresent. I'm no advocate of organised religion, but when we are at our lowest, there comes a moment when we reach out for something. This song embodies that feeling within us all and reminds us we are after all, Human.
to personified82 : lets say jesus did not exist right, that does not give you the right to talk like that i guesee your mum never gave you lessons about manners did she? you must have had a rough childhood hehehe
I think this song is about ham and cheese sandwiches arguing with the financial ombudsman regarding technical issues regarding gardening equipment stolen from B&Q, i would also probably join the United States Air Force and make my home phone ex-directory.
what a record ! always remember this being played at a malibu stacey nye party in a film studio in acton, mid 90's i suppose. jeremy healy came on about 6 in the morning and scratched this in as his first record. f'ing amazing night. rolled around on the floor until about 8 then got the tube home. those were the days. anyway cheers for uploading it.
summer 1998 i found a tape in a club in greece and this song was in place 1...i loved seens then.....when i was in my blues i was listening those lyrics!!!!!!
I love this song and the best thing about it is shes singing about Jesus and if your walkin with Him you every once in a while say "You've got the love" great song
I think, as with most popular music, there's nothing specific in the lyrics of the song to indicate the source of the love. It's left open to the listener's interpretation. If you care to believe she's talking about the love originating from a probably fictional salesman of a non existent oomnipotent being then that's your call.
I disagree. She says "Lord I just don't care, but you've got the love to see me througth".. Then she says later in the song' When friend's are gone,I know My Saviour's love is real!!" So she is telling you Jesus is her source, and mine too
Even though the original version is great, I still think that this one is the best. it's one of the greatest feel good songs of all time!! whenever your feeling stick this on a full volume!!
Can you believe this, just reading the lyrics choke me up and I´m agnostic, how weird is that lol. Truly amazing lyrics beautifully sung. This is my favorite remix, with that touch of Acen, really sets it off a treat. :)
Hey I was really down in the dregs until I stumbled onto this track that you uploaded. I danced in my room like, I don't know, I just danced and felt so much better. Thank you very much, you have some of that love too to share this with us and me.:)
I love this track... when my heart aches I put it on and then it hurts more and more... until the piano break comes and the track allmost comes to a dead stop. when I hear that reverse effect just before the breakbeat kicks in, I get goosebumps and when the beat and everything starts. I feel my strength coming back and the track fills me with a certain feeling of euphoria and it comforts me. Like soft arms around me.
