Of course, I knew you'd know the 2 I know :p

[*Perrine*]

She did blinding at solidays (I didn't remember if I posted the pic where she posed with her drumstick and the veil on her face?) and MBBC but not KWAF.

 

And yeah, she looks older than 22... !!

Well this box looks pretty amazing!

 

Oooh lucky! I don't know, but I allow ou to post it again :tongue: I would have love her to play Hurricane Drunk as well, I'm in love with this song <3

 

Yeah, only 23 (i think now :thinking: )

I think we ALL had the 'OMG, she's only THAT'?!! shock XDDD At first I thought she was around my age (27) but no...

 

@V: you here :rolleyes: If you need some Flo guidance, you know where to find me! Ask Cam, I've totally flotised her XD

I know, I thought she was 30 or something! Can't wait to hear what she'll come up with later :nice:

 

And I didn't know you were the one flotising her, good job haha

[a-chan]

Here my pics from Blinding

 

 

As for Hurricane, she rarely plays it nowadays. She did at the Hammersmith though, but she did all the album there.

We already have 'Strangeness & charm' which is :awesome: (cam had the audio in direct live that night ^^, here the vid *want-to-go-back*)

Yes, that was me :smug: but the funny thing is, she got to see her live before me though I had my tix before her! Had to wait till London to see Flo :bomb:

[Christa42]

omg this is so random but i was in some cheesy mall store today and they played the dizzy /florence 'You got the love" i was jammin and shoppin at the same time loved it made my day

[*Perrine*]

^They don't play her songs on the radio here, but it's better this way :tongue:

Really nice pics you've got there :surprised:

Oooh lucky, you got to hear all the songs! How long did the gig last?

Yeah, and she got you some signed stuff right? :wacko:

[a-chan]

^They don't play her songs on the radio here, but it's better this way :tongue:

Yes they are! On 'Le Mouv' :D It's thank to them I discover Flo cause they did a little reportage on her for a festival she was doing here last year. They used to play her (YGTL and Drumming) but not so much now... :confused:

 

Oooh lucky, you got to hear all the songs! How long did the gig last?

At the Hammersmith, it was the last show of her Cosmic Love Tour, so it was about 1h20 long (and we had the disco ball entrance :awesome: ) and Solidays only 50min since it was a festival.

 

I like it!! :dance:

Since you hadn't heard that one, maybe you still don't know the track she did for Twilight (:dozey: ) The song is one that didn't make it to Lungs but it's still good :rolleyes:

Yeaaaah :awesome: She asked her for an autograph for me at the Bataclan (Flo mispelled my name *cute*) and manage to grab me a drumstick at Lyon :hug: Owe her for life for that :kiss:

Well I don't get this radio here sadly, so I'm stuck with virgin radio... I think I'll do without :tongue:

I like the fact she's not that famous here actually.

Nice! Although it's not a very long gig, she just has one album out so I understand

Yeah me too :D It's like our beautiful little secret :smug:

One thing's for sure - she has fantastic stage presence and she seems to put a lot of thought into her "choreography".

In many ways she reminds me of Kate Bush, although her voice is very different, of course.;)

I agree. I guess they both share a strong unique universe that you can identify them with. Plus this mysterious charismatic aura...they look like priestress while performing...almost in 'transe' sometimes..it's weird...but I dunno how explain it better :lol:

Anyway, it's quite unique to witness and feel it... Her voice is so powerful, it just grasps you and you want to scream and cry at the same time...No need to take cocaine when you have Flo :lol:

Does that mean you do on other occasions, then?:stunned:

 

I can imagine that cocaine would come in very handy if you were watching Radiohead, as their music is so depressing!:P

[a-chan]

:laugh3: no! I meant that flo is a drug on itself. It was a figure of speech ^^

[mc_squared]

:laugh3: no! I meant that flo is a drug on itself. It was a figure of speech ^^

 

Really?:rolleyes:

 

Anyway, basically what you're saying is that when you watch her live, you just need to "go with the Flo"!:P

:laugh3: exactly. (that's a good one btw!)

 

[The Champion]

Oh. Heavy In Your Arms is great. But it's very dark.

I forbid myself to listen to it ;O Went through some bad time because of this song (the lyrics are so real!), but I still think it's very very great

Jalous.

[Black Rose]

She needs to do some new songs, otherwise she will turn into the Ting Tings in that she will take so long to come up with album 2, people would have forgotten about her

Her album came out last year and she's touring not stop since... Giver her a break! I know her band's name is 'Florence+The Machine' but she's not a robot :lol:

Plus, she already started writing AND recording some new stuff (see 'strangeness and charm' that she's already playing at gigs). New album should be out in 2011 from what she's hoping :)

And I don't think people will forget about her...she's too damn impressiv for that!
