That is true, she is kinda the Anti-gaga in that respect too. Like strong vocals and a marketable image too. But its like the music reflects image, reflects voice, reflects direction

Ceremonials is gonna be EPIC!

I think I'd probably be a little awe struck my self, I'll defently me going to her next tour. I hope she sings a couple of her older songs as well has the new ones I'd hate to have missed the chance to see hear them live.

I hope you enjoy her and I am sure she will combine both albums

I agree although it will be interesting to hear what the demo sounds like.

Florence is Billboard's cover girl for October's edition. She discusses the success of Lungs, the early sessions of Ceremonials and of course the pending release of Ceremonials.

Her label have put major pressure on her. They have major hopes for this. Here's hoping she's doesn't do a Duffy.

Lungs really established her as a powerful musician!

Now Ceremonials will showcase this and establish her....as a Music Icon!

Shake It Out is my anthem definitely at the moment. And i predict massive things with Ceremonials. Cannot wait to see the videos for the songs, see her promote and eprform! She is on the next Q magazine issue looking stellar as ever.

I think "doing a Duffy" is out of the question

I can't wait for the next flo tour.

My friend would be there in a heartbeat and we can only HOPE she will consider arenas. We already decided she's ready for them (she's done big festival sets so it's peanuts compared to that)

This new album promises to be just as dark as lungs especially with the release date, I can only hope the morbidism of the first still carries into the second with a little progression.

Shame Shake it Out didn't do better on the charts, oh well I think Florence is more of an Album artist so hopefully things will pick up after its release.

I will pretend it is number one anyway

It is immense but the album will sell MASSIVE amounts....we may see ehr best first week sales in regards to the hype! and she has a promo tour i would love to go and see her! so expect massive sales especially this WInter period!

Ceremonials i have a feeling may overtake Friendly Fires and katy B as my album of 2011

I've got a feeling Ceremonials could be my album of 2011 as well if WTWGM and Shake it out are anything to go bye.

Yeah i wonder too

She's done US magazine spreads so far

I am sure is bound to do the brits and grammys next year

Most artists normally do the usual shows in the US like Good morning america, Letterman, Leno, Ellen etc. Shame she can't do Oprah.

Flo should be everywhere for promo. US talkshows for Ceremonials and eprformances. UK performances and chat shows obviously closer to the time (Norton is back and Wossy will be on air too!) X Factor promo? Loads of live shows, promo tour dates etc.

She has so many boundaries to touch upon it is epic!
