It's hard to write a catchy pop song about paranoia and loneliness but Florence + the Machine manage just that on "Breaking Down." The official video, something of a nostalgic take on the tour diary format features a sentimental tone with a Super 8 feel, and is everybit as earnest and likable as you might expect from the talented Florence Welch.

    It's a film format invented in the mid-sixties. It was named as such after it's size (8mm) and has a nostalgic quality.

    This "bitch" was making a career and singing before Lana. But I like them both, maybe Florence a little more.

    Do your research before you post something stupid like this. Florence debuted in 2009. Lana debuted in 2010. If if they sounded even remotely similar, Lana would be copying Florence.

    Florence + The Machine's music is also much more in depth from a songwriting perspective, that's just my opinion though.

    ...Florence has been around longer than Lana has, man. And, well. They're two very different artists. I don't see how you think that Florence is trying to be Lana.

    ...I also don't see why ANYBODY would want to be Lana.

    Lana has been making music way before Florence, Lana started in 2005. Flo (my friends and I call her Flobot) has been making music since 2007.
