It's safe to say that in my thirty years of life on this earth I have never EVER been more obsessed with an artist. In my opinion we haven't seen an artist with this much raw talent since Anne Lennox. Her stage presence sucks you in and makes you feel something pretty extraordinary. She is humble, funny, and not to mention beautiful. When you see her live wearing her gorgeous floor length gowns she looks reminiscence of a fairy floating across the stage. Her lyrics speak to my heart and her voice rocks my soul to its inner core. She is what I like to call MAGICAL.
Let’s talk about magic. Because music, at its best, is a kind of magic that lifts you up and takes you somewhere else. “I want my music to sound like throwing yourself out of a tree, or off a tall building, or as if you’re being sucked down into the ocean and you can’t breathe,” says Florence Welch. “It’s something overwhelming and all-encompassing that fills you up, and you’re either going to explode with it, or you’re just going to disappear.”
One of my favorite movies of the summer was Snow White and the Huntsman. Florence wrote the song "Breath of Life" for the movie and here is the video.
Another one of my favorite songs from her first Album Lungs is Cosmic Love.
