I enjoy the unplugged versions of her work too, when it's stripped back it's still so very beautiful
![]() Hopefully this year Florence will gift us with her third offering

Personally I prefer Flo' when she's really going for it
![]() Her stripped back songs are beautiful but when you've got her lungs(excuse the pun) you might as well use them She always does 'Drumming Song' live stripped back, but there's no contest to a full on version ![]() Hope there is a new album in 2014. |

Just added "Swimming" and "Hospital Beds" to my iTunes. I bought the double album of Lungs when it was re-released. It took me a while to get into Florence's music. I struggled with her voice at first. I couldn't decide whether or not I liked it. Quote:

I can't wait to hear new material. I'd love the album to be out before the end of the year. |

"Only If For A Night" is being sampled on a song by Rihanna.
I'm nervous about it as its one of my favourite Flo tracks... Thoughts? http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/music/ne...p1VmlEkVVqAgbk |

Rihanna is always very good with samples see shut up and drive, fading, red lipstick, dont stop the musuc. So on past successes and depending on the way thecsamples is used in the song and of course what part of thecsong seems very interesting. Not like its a cover.

I can't wait to hear this album. The reviews are amazing. I heard that it leaked online but I haven't been able to find it.

Hi all! Big fan of Flo since the beginning and I've just had my first listen of HBHBHB. I think it contains some of the best work of her career thus far. For those who are still waiting to hear it you're in for such a treat!

I'm listening to HBHBHB again. I loved Ceremonials and I want to love this one as much.
UK Tour announcement I was hoping for a couple of nights at the O2 arena in London but they have dates at London's Alexandra Palace instead. Gonna give this tour a miss as that venue would be a nightmare to get to, sadly. |

I'm hoping to get tickets for Birmingham wish they were doing a Cardiff or Bristol gig
.And I love the new album so much I love it instantly like I did with Lungs which worries me as Lungs whilst I love doesn't quite stand whereas with Ceremonials I hear something new each time. Favourite song by a mile is Queen of Peace I love the opening. |

Florence + the Machine are at the top of their game just now. 'How Big' is a quite stunning album. Queen of Peace, Delilah and Mother my stand outs but if you don't have the deluxe then it's worth checking out Hiding, a gem of a song. ![]() Quote:
