Florence + the Machine - No Light, No Light (Cover by Chanele Mc Guinness)

For this video I had the great pleasure of working with Chanele Mc Guinness, an Irish native and one of the most wonderful people I've met in a long time. She's currently on tour with the Young American's in the United Kingdom so if you happen to be in the United Kingdom and you catch wind of the Young Americans stopping by your town you should definitely make all efforts to check them out!

If you have been living under a rock for the last couple of years it's possible that you've missed Florence + the Machine. Florence + the Machine's debut album "Lungs" landed them a grammy nomination last year for Best New Artist. They didn't win, but they did release, in my humble opinion, a better follow up album in 2011 Ceremonials that should have at least gotten a Best Song nomination. "Shake it Out" was their first single off of Ceremonials and I actually like it better than their biggest hit "Dog Days are Over". "No Light, No Light" is the second single from Florence + the Machine's Ceremonials album, and I love it. I'm truly excited to see where Florence + the Machine will go from here... one things for sure is that last year's Grammys won't be the last time we see Florence get nominated for an award.

Plus does anyone else feel like she's a poppy Imogen Heap? I love Imogen, big time... Hide & Seek blew my mind... I still listen to that song at least once a month, so pretty.

Again thank you so so much Chanele, you were such a trooper to make the shoot work out with your rehearsal schedule... Personally I love filming at 4am :)
Please check out Chanele's channel, she has a bunch of great stuff on there, I'm a fan!

Tony Hundtoft, you always blow my mind, but this time you rocked my world. Watching you record this was like watching Han Solo make the Kessel Run in less than twelve parsecs! In fact you're new nickname should be the Millenium Falcon.

Brandon Gass, so glad to work with you. I'll say that again for emphasis, Soooo glad to work with you! You mastered this song like the way Luke Skywalker mastered his dark side to master his father, Darth Vader. "Search your feelings, you know this to be true".

Such a great take on the song; the music, the backing vocals, the leading voice. Gave me goosebumps, congratulations! Like from me. I don't think I've ever seen such a good cover. And who recorded this? They have some amazing camera skills too.

@FATMfanclub ~ Thank you for such a kind comment! I did the filming, Tony did the recording, Chanele did all the vocals... she's amazing! and Brandon did the mastering (unsung hero).

@SteamyInTheCity did she sing the backround voices too?

[SteamyInTheCity]

@99Kimiii Yes indeed she did.

[PeturHinrik]

Not only do you post outstanding covers by various artists(all performers included, even the camera man). But I also love reading the descriptions. Good work, as always.
