HorrificAttack Posted March 10, 2010 Share Posted March 10, 2010 Why? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
a-chan Posted March 10, 2010 Share Posted March 10, 2010 Urgh, it pisses me off so much that they are most popular for a song that isn't even theirs, fuck off Florence, you're shit. Since when dog days is not their song??? :inquisitive: Or maybe you're talking about 'you got the love'? And again, what's wrong with doing an awesome cover? A lot of bands do covers, it doesn't mean they are shit. You can not like their style but you can't deny that Florence has an amazing voice and stage presence....

HorrificAttack Posted March 10, 2010 Share Posted March 10, 2010 I can deny whatever I want. What's right about doing a cover? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
a-chan Posted March 10, 2010 Share Posted March 10, 2010 What's right about doing a cover? It's just a tribute to something you love. You sing songs you love. No harm in that... Some covers are better than the original (Hallujah cover by Jeff Buckley is one), some aren't. Coldplay do a lot of covers during gigs...are you hating them for that? I'm sure you're doing ones under the shower?!! :rolleyes: Don't understand why you bash an artist just because she pays tribute to a song she loves... That's just don't make sense to me :inquisitive: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HorrificAttack Posted March 10, 2010 Share Posted March 10, 2010 They make money from singing someone elses work and get credit for it. It's ridiculous. I don't even like Coldplay, but playing songs live is a different issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Violet Posted March 10, 2010 Share Posted March 10, 2010 Big deal. At any rate, a cover usually constitutes an artist putting their own spin on a song, so it's not as if they're doing the EXACT same song as the original. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HorrificAttack Posted March 10, 2010 Share Posted March 10, 2010 It's pretty much the same song though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
a-chan Posted March 11, 2010 Share Posted March 11, 2010 They make money from singing someone elses work and get credit for it. It's ridiculous. She didn't ask for "getting credit" for it. People just liked her cover and it's got big. At first, it was only a b-side but people liked it so much that they released it after as a single. So yeah, bash the audience for liking a song :P I don't even like Coldplay, but playing songs live is a different issue. Then maybe you should see her live and give your opinion after that before bashing her only for doing a cover....

Grace. Posted March 11, 2010 Share Posted March 11, 2010 There are rumours that Florence might be coming out to Aus this winter (our winter :P) for Splendour in the Grass... really, really hoping it turns out to be true!!! I'd love to see her live, after missing out on Laneway Festival Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
a-chan Posted March 15, 2010 Share Posted March 15, 2010 Finally, Flo's acceptance speech for best album at the Brits!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
a-chan Posted March 24, 2010 Share Posted March 24, 2010 /BUMP! There is a little article on this month issue of NME about Flo's new album. Nothing much said except they already recorded 2 tracks (with sick drums and bass :awesome: ) and that LP2 will be released in 2011. Flo tweeted that she's recording a music video (for Cosmic Love I suppose, since it will be released as a single in may). Here what she said about it: Dancing in a prison of light in a velvet hannah marshall catsuit, feel like a goblin in a rainbow, x To finish, a great audio of an rare unreleased song! I've seen little bits of live crappy video of this, but here great version! Enjoy!

Violet Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 OMG NEW ALBUM YAY. :wacky: Did they say when specifically in 2011? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
a-chan Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 OMG NEW ALBUM YAY. :wacky: Did they say when specifically in 2011? Nope, nothing specific.... But she's touring right now and she's doing summer festivals so I guess she'll be writing/recording till the end of the year and maybe next spring. I'm guessing it we'll be out on summer/september 2011 :thinking: but we never know, she recorded Lungs pretty fast..so... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Violet Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 That's true. I mean, I'm not really rushing, seeing as the first one was only released last July. :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
a-chan Posted April 17, 2010 Share Posted April 17, 2010 /BUMP! Here's a little cover of 'I don't wanna know'.

a-chan Posted April 20, 2010 Share Posted April 20, 2010 Flo was at Coachella festival this week-end and she did her cover of Hospital Beds with...Nathan Willet himself from Cold war kids!! She's so cute on fangirl mode! It's really touching and you can see how she respect him and his music.

SueDeNimes Posted April 20, 2010 Share Posted April 20, 2010 :curtain: I've never heard any of her songs (consciously at least :uhoh:) but the article about her in the latest Q Magazine made me really curious to listen into her songs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've got that issue too :) The article is really good! And YES, you MUST listen to her music!!! (Camille would back me up on this too :D ) If you want to know a little more about her music and listen to some songs, just check the first post, I've put some in it ;) and if you want to go a little further, this thread is filled with always awesome performances or rare songs/cover. But I advise you to look after her live performances cause that's what Florence is all about!! But if you have to listen to ONE song, it's this one: [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qn_tt1nuPO8]YouTube- Florence + the Machine - Cosmic Love (Rivoli Ballroom Live) HD[/ame] Welcome in the Flo universe, it's quite something different!! (drums+harp :awesome: ) I conclude with her performance of 'dog days' in Coachella ^^ Can't wait to jump with her!
