No - I don't love Florence and the Machine.
She swims in the wake of far superior female artists....Candi Staton for one. |

I thought it was just one person?! Didn't realise it was a band!
Saying that, i love their music & the tone of her voice. She is quite sexy but not in an obvious way...she is stunning in the 'You got the Love' video. Drumming song is awesome. |

I think we can get away with calling Florence a solo artist. Like No doubt, Paramore and Texas. Both have a lead female while being back up by a couple of guys who play instruments

I don't get why they're popular. I don't like her voice and the hit they had is just a cover.

She's great, I love her voice. Album is brilliant - Kiss With a Fist and Girl With One Eye are my favourites.

To say I was pleasantly surprised with Florence's album is an understatement. YGTL is probably the weakest song on there, but it's hardly bad. What's great about 'Lungs' is that it's very consistent, there's nothing that can be considered filler. There are some who won't like her voice but many artists have that problem with listeners. My favourites on the album change every time I listen to it, but the stand-outs usually are Howl, Hurricane Drunk, Drumming Song and Dog Days Are Over. |

Loads of artists have had hit singles with covers. Just look at Westlife.

I love Florence. Superb album, and brilliant live.
Oh, and You've Got The Love isn't their only hit song, if people bothered to look/pay attention to music. |

She's not too bad (is it a band or one person?), she sings better than the one in La Roux anyway.

I do like them and amd seeing them live in a few weeks,
I think their songs will come a live more on Stage given Florence is quite the show girl. I love the remix of their cover of You've got the Love. |
