The Official Florence and the Machine Thread

[Tom4784]

Anyone got this album? I bought it this morning and I love it. It's one you have to listen to a few times though before you can really get into it. I love Hurricane Drunk, Cosmic Love, My Boy builds Coffins, Girl with one Eye and the three singles.

I liked the second disc but at the moment there's only been one song that's stuck out (Bird Song). Anyone got the album? What do you think?

[Marc]

I want to buy it but may download it instead :tongue: I do love rabbit heart :love:

[Mrluvaluva]

I really want to get this.

I LOVE Florence and The Machine- I have got all of her three singles and because I can't but the album at the moment, I have had to listen to all of her other tracks via limewire. I agree 100% that her songs takes a few listens before it really grabs you- at first I only thought Rabbit Heart was OK, then after three listens I fell in love with it and thought it was the best song of 2009. I can't wait until I but the album this weekend, I'm going to have it on repeat :love:

You need a downloading programme like transmission or something else illegal "tongue:

Oh right. I am not sure about that? :puzzled:

[MrGaryy]

got it the day it was released, it's pretty amazing it must be said. it does suffer from being a tad samey, i feel a few more Kiss With A Fist type songs would have woken things up a bit.

[Deirdre]

I love it.
It's so different to anything I've ever listened to.

Cosmic Love is just... wow. :lovedup:

[King Gizzard]

Only heard the song thats popular tommorow. the song about noirin - rabbit heart..hell yeah its good! not normally what i go for, usually can't get into bands/artists with female singers

[Shaun]

I've not yet listened to the whole thing, but I absolutely adore Rabbit Heart. Am quite impressed by Bird Song (and the Intro), Hurricane Drunk and Kiss With A Fist.

A bit bored by tracks like My Boy Builds Coffins though - a lot of them sound samey.

I've got about half of the album to hear yet, so I'll rate it when I'm finished.

Ooh I downloaded it and I love it!

I didn't know they were the geniuses behind Kiss with a Fist! :love:

[Tom4784]

I've decided to rename the thread. Since there's no news I've come up with something to pass the time.

THE FLORENCE SONG OF THE DAY
COSMIC LOVE
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4tpW-OqIxWo

I really like this song, It's got a similar 'folkyness' to Rabbit Heart but it does it in a more epic Ballad way.

[Hugo]

Love Cosmic Love, been my favourite since I got the album.

[Sam!]

I love Florence & the Machine, especially Rabbit Heart & Dog Days.

[CaraRawr]

I love FaTM! <3 I need to get 'Lungs' when I have more money.

[Tom4784]

I think Cosmic Love, Rabbit Heart and Dog Days are all big highlights of the album. But then again I just love the whole album.

I'd reccomend it, It just gets better with every listen.

She has got nice hair, She's quite fit.

[amy-jayne]

Love Florence and the Machine, I've heard the album but still not got it! I'm in love with her 3 singles though

[KKBL]

I've loved "Cosmic Love" ever since it was used in that O2 advert."Rabit Heart" is great aswell.I'll probably get the album if I like the next song I here from her.

[dennissabre]

Saw her at Glastonbury. Brilliant performance but very hot and sweaty for us all.

Looked great on T4 On The Beach this afternoon but only showed two songs.

THE FLORENCE SONG OF THE DAY
RABBIT HEART (RAISE IT UP)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7nxO-yPQesA

It's definately one of the best songs on the album.

[MrGaryy]

saw that last week. why do all of her videos looks so cheap when she's one of the biggest artists this year, Island should be pumping money into her. I realise that obviously she's going for the whole boho vibe but still.

I still quite like the video though.

I love Rabbit Heart, one of my fave songs of this year. Still to listen to the rest of the album yet, I love Kiss With a Fist too!

[Dolphin-and-Whale]

Cosmic Love is a good tune

[Marc]
