New Flo's song for the Twilight soundtrack. It's called 'heavy in your arms'. On first listen, I was 'ok, it's good but not that good'...(maybe because it was 'twilight' tagged...:facepalm:) but after a few more listens, it grows on me....I think I'm a hopeless Flo fan...XD

SERIOUSLY, why the hell is that twilight / new moon / eclipse / [fill in another stuuupid title] rubbish ALWAYS getting those great musicians? I mean, sure, it's a huge thing (for thirteen-year-olds :dozey: Amazing new generation we are expecting, I'd say ...) but that doesn't mean that each and every artist I love and appreciate is willingly letting those 'vampires' ruin their work.

 

Those musicians don't need that 'boost' twilight gives them. They are amazing on their own and certainly don't deserve these twilight fans.

 

I don't want to put anyone down, it's just that I think it's a pure pitty that twilight has again the most terrific soundtrack of the year, although it's surely one of the worst movies of the year. It'll get every f***ing award anyway. :worried:

To be honest, I think artists that make it onto a Twilight soundtrack tend to come out unscathed as long as they're not composing the film's lead single. That's what sank Paramore's fanbase and sank Death Cab's fanbase and is in the process of sinking Muse's fanbase. I think Florence will be okay. After all, Thom Yorke's still okay, as are many other artists who contributed to New Moon, right?

 

And Twilight mainly wins awards from MTV, and nobody intelligent takes MTV awards as credible.

 

On another note, Cosmic Love has to be my most played song of the last month. :heart:

You are right but it still makes me angry that those musicians take part in the twilight machine.

Yeah, I dont particularly like that it's part of the Twilight machine either, but... AT LEAST WE GET A NEW SONG! :dance:

 

And it's a really good one, too! Wow, I've repeated it six times already in one afternoon!

 

So win-win situation, really. :laugh3:

Hi Flo fans! :)

 

Is anyone going to the Paris concert on Wednesday?

I'm looking for great people to go with, I thought this thread was the perfect place to find some! ;)

Coucou Noémie :) Camille (Khaplay sur le fo) y va. Tu pourras pas la louper, elle sera problablement la 1ère à faire la queue et dans la fosse, celle qui fera le plus de bruit :lol: Envoies-lui un mp ;)

AMEN!!!!

I was pissed too they put a song for twilight (fear the twi-hard invasion at gigs :dozey: ) but as someone said here, Flo's song is not the central one, so we should be ok AND it gives us a new song (even though 'heavy in your arms was written long agoooo)

 

Flo tweeted this from the Island of Wright

 

florence welch flo_tweet

 

Side of stage for jz with beyonce, kanye west and chris martin, we all just cheersed each other, totally weird, totally amazing... X

Ok, thanks! :)

 

 

 

Still very cute :)

 

I saw a video of Cosmic Love at the Isle of Wight Festival last weekend...the sound was...awful. I don't know what happened, but it wasn't good and I hope it won't happen again to our dear and talented Florence! :)

Nope, I don't think so but you'll have a blast for sure! I'm gonna see her sunday at a festival in France :) Can't wait to see her again!

 

Here's very interesting one hour ITV of several people (Flo herself, manager, her dad!...) talking about her, her influences, her childhood (you can even hear her singing as a child at one moment, it's really touching!)

Flo was in very good form in Glastonbury! She did the new song for Twilight AND a cover of 'the chain' of Fleetwood mac totally AMAZIIIING!

I just thought I'd drop in to say how much I enjoy "Heavy in Your Arms." It's a lovely track, and I don't care that it's for a lame movie. :wacky:

 

:escaping:

 

I love it too even if it's for a lame movie, at least, we have a new song :) (even if technally 'heavy in your arms' is an old one). I just hope it won't drag too much twilight crazy fangirls into concerts...But hey, if people got to know about her by that movie, it's just spreading the love :smug:

 

And just because it's beautiful, love her outfit here:

I couldn't agree more since Florence is one of my favorite artist (my sig speak ofr itself :rolleyes: ) All her songs are epic and powerful. Strangeness & charm (new song she played during the Cosmic Love tour) is amazing :smug: It's cool to see another Flo addict, you could come see us in the Flo thread, it's a bit dead since we're not many...

http://www.coldplaying.com/forum/showthread.php?t=60128

 

Yeah, I always wondered if it's Florence in your sig :P And yeah they are epic :D

Didn't know that she's touring, maybe becaues I have to catch up.

 

I know only few of her songs but I love them. It's the first band that caught my attention since my Coldplay-hypnosis thing :D I thought that after Coldplay my exceptations will be too high and I won't find a band that I will like. But it happened. Their songs are great. I'm listening to one of them for some time, then it's time for another. Some sort of scheme. I want to how to say that? Max out the song? To fully experience it. Then I go to another. But it's not of course that I'm not going back to those songs. Hm most of them (which I heard) were sad, but finally I started to listen to "The dog days are over" :D It's so positive! It gives me a lot of power despite it's way to hot. My bandmate recommended me F+TM she's a fan of them and we were covering 'Cosmic Love' 'Rabbit Heart' 'The Dog Days Are Over' and had quite funny time with "Heavy In Your Arms" today, and it was very great, cause she has an appropiate voice, and it's very hard to find because Florence's voice is quite special.

Soooo when someome ask me what I'm listetning to I always say " COLDPLAY! And Florence + The Machine too!"

The tour is over since may (with the Cosmic love tour that ended in UK), this summer she's just doing festival all across Europe ;)

That's true, Flo's themes are pretty dark, she acknowledge it herself, saying she's always been a dark-twisted-morbid girl :lol:

 

Gonna see her in a few days, can't wait!!

YEAH PERRINE!!!!!!!!!!! You've finally seen the light?! :rolleyes: Where will you see her??

Hope you'll be 'flotised' in a few days :D
