I've seen her something like year 2014 - in a 'Flow festival' - Helsinki - booked with the same time with Alt-J! Bayed 'big bucks' - her performance was a dissapointment! No 'No light, no light', ... The end I saw Alt-J's gig was awesome. Florence + The Machine was weak, performance.
I was trying to figure out what it is about this performance that seemed different. Instrumentals and vocals are perfect... stage and lighting is fine. Then it hit me. She's wearing shoes and not spinning around like a wild child 😅
Actually, I think they could have just been trying to be respectful. Watching her concert at Royal Albert Hall the crowd was so quiet at times, I think because they were enraptured by Florence and wanted to hear her more clearly and let the magic of the moment shine through and linger for its duration. It really was a magical performance. Although this was louder and not as formal... not too many moments where the energy just hung in the air... but there were chairs there and everyone was seated so maybe they told not to stand up or do much of anything by the show/studio.
At Royal Albert Hall it was all more formal. There are seats, like in the letterman show. It is the format, when they present songs on tv it is not even remotely similar to a festival with thousands jumping and sweating and screaming xd
she's too wild and fierce for such a dull audience... this kind of music is meant to move mountains, get volcanos bursting, make the rain fall down, lightning strikes and take your soul out of your body to dance
Okay I'm seeing complaints on every one of these videos about the crowd being quiet and it's getting annoying now. This is how I'd *prefer* a crowd to be at a Florence performance. I don't want to hear random people spazzing. I want to hear Florence. It's not like this is the kind of music you scream to anyway. Plus, you'll notice the crowd cheers at the beginning and end of her songs, so its not like they don't like her performance they just have common sense and courtesy.
Ok so this space is actually notorious for requiring its audiences to remain fairly quiet and seated at all times. The audience is definitely made up of fans, they just arent allowed to get up
Four Reasons to Love Florence a: her clothes and shoes are the bomb b: she writes amazing songs c: Her vocals can make you walk into a battlefield with a smile on your face d: she truly feels the music
I SAW THIS when it was webcast live ,the show lasted 49 minutes , it was spectacular !! they are in the historical Ed Sullivan theater , jumping around and the like is not allowed , she did get two standing ovations , one after heavy in your arms and at the end of dog days , then vevo got a hold of it ungh, she did rabitt heart and did a little saucy dance in it and now you cant find it , she did girl with one eye and stared the crowd down and not,s on here either !
FLORENCE WELSH IS ONE OF THE GREATEST ARTIST(SINGER/SONGWRITER) OF ALL TIME AND THE MACHINES ARE GREAT TOO.. ENGLAND HAS THE GREATEST, DIVERSE AND UNIQUE ARTISTS IN THE WORLD. GO ENGLAND.. :).
Probably my favourite performance of this song. She looks so into it, and her voice sounds AMAZING. I love Florence so much; her music is outstanding. I really hope I can see her live one day.
While Florence is great, can someone give the drummer some credit? Dude does an amazing job on every song, and this one especially (I mean, it's the Drumming Song ffs).
we love,love love florence here in the states ! the show at the historical ed sullivan theater was post-explained to remain seated ! IT WASNT ALLOWED TO BE MANIC OR OTHERWISE !dont worry she felt the love ! what an amazing woman and her machine.the show was spectacular !she is so beautifull !
She doesn't use Auto Tune! You can just see it here!!! I LOVE FLORENCE AND THE MACHINE!! SHE IS THE BEST Florence and the Machine, Florence Welch Herself is a Goddess! PRAISE HER
I'm a girl and completely straight but when I hear Flo sing and see her sway her body to her lovely music I must admit I am completely mesmerized by the woman.
There's a drumming noise inside my head That starts when you're around I swear that you could hear it It makes such an all mighty sound There's a drumming noise inside my head That throws me to the ground I swear that you should hear it It makes such an all mighty sound Louder than sirens Louder than bells Sweeter than heaven And hotter than hell I ran to a tower where the church bells chime I hoped that they would clear my mind They left a ringing in my ear But that drum's still beating loud and clear Louder than sirens Louder than bells Sweeter than heaven And hotter than hell Louder than sirens Louder than bells Sweeter than heaven And hotter than hell Louder than sirens Louder than bells Sweeter than heaven And hotter than hell As I move my feet towards your body I can hear this beat it fills my head up And gets louder and louder It fills my head up and gets louder and louder I run to the river and dive straight in I pray that the water will drown out the din But as the water fills my mouth It couldn't wash the echoes out But as the water fills my mouth It couldn't wash the echoes out I swallow the sound and it swallows me whole 'Til there's nothing left inside my soul I'm as empty as that beating drum But the sound has just begun As I move my feet towards your body I can hear this beat it fills my head up And gets louder and louder It fills my head up and gets louder and louder There's a drumming noise inside my head That starts when you're around I swear that you could hear it It makes such an all mighty sound There's a drumming noise inside my head That starts when you're around I swear that you could hear it It makes such an all mighty sound Louder than sirens Louder than bells Sweeter than heaven And hotter than hell Louder than sirens Louder than bells Sweeter than heaven And hotter than hell As I move my feet towards your body I can hear this beat it fills my head up And gets louder and louder It fills my head up and gets louder and louder
How the hell do you try and express how this woman and this sound makes you feel! I guess you can't, the only thing is you can sense something deep in your soul, pounding away with emotion, am I the only one that gets that? let me know
Every time I watch this, I always get distracted wondering "are those shorts or a weird skirt?". Than I remember how awesome this song is and I stop caring about the shorts/skirt mystery.
Besides, she doesn't sing the song exactly as it is in the studio version, she let her emotion carry her and her singing away. And that's what so wonderful about her, every performance is unique.
And people wonder why toxic feminism rises, cause of comments like this from men. As exceptionally talented as Florence is, her throat's about to break and all from her range, and yet shallow comments like this exist and gets upvoted. fucking hell
@@kyrandom2496 You could consider it a compliment. Take the lead singer from the Killers or Bono or any boy band. They are considered "hot" by woman and get objectified all the time.
Literally one of the most perfect voices ever,
Florence knows how to command a stage. She is literally the best live performer I've seen in this day and age. What an amazing artist!
I've seen her something like year 2014 - in a 'Flow festival' - Helsinki - booked with the same time with Alt-J!

You're right. It's odd seeing her with footwear. lol
This crowd is hilarious. They look like they signed up for like a straight pop song and then got this hahahaha
XD

Amazing how the build up to that release at 3:17 can give you chills without using a single word.

Wow... revisiting this performance after some years. Got chills all over again. Sublime.
9 years later and this performance is still one of my favorite! I listen to this Letterman Show full performance ALL the time!
2:55 - 3:20 --> perfection!!!!!
What kind of a vocal control is that??? That's just incredible.... I was like WOW!!! :)
Fav live version of drumming song
Ohmygod. Florence is too perfect. I love her voice...songs...legs...face...everything...

Such a delightful performer! Florence Welch is so mesmerizing!
This song is so EPIC. Never heard a song as amazing as this. And her voice is just so powerful!
i've now watched this video 10 times in a row and i still want to keep playing it. I swear, this woman is incredible
Florence + The Machine have released some of the greatest songs in the past 10 years. Amazing band. And what a voice!
Probably my favourite performance of this song. She looks so into it, and her voice sounds AMAZING. I love Florence so much; her music is outstanding.
I really hope I can see her live one day.
She's full of energy...It's amazing...She's great!!!

I love the way Florence sings her songs different each time - her voice is so wonderful...
She sounds AMAZING live!!! One of the few artists today that can do that.
True music amazing songs absolutely breathtaking goosebumps every time i hear the intros this is what music should be like please save this world Flo
it sounds better live than the album version, i love this version but my fav one is the version of the itunes festival live from soho
I live for this song will look for your recommendation
I love Florence & The Machine, amazing music, it is alive.
While Florence is great, can someone give the drummer some credit? Dude does an amazing job on every song, and this one especially (I mean, it's the Drumming Song ffs).
Facts have been spoken
This dude's name is Christopher Lloyd Hayden and he is missed dearly in the band (from me😅)!!!
Chris the kid! 🔥
The drummer is killing it!!!🪘🥁♥️
Watching this in 2015 and it still makes me get goose bumps
I have watched this set maybe 50 times or more .now in 2018 there should be millions of hits on this instead of the crap nowadays.fabulous band
we love,love love florence here in the states ! the show at the historical ed sullivan theater was post-explained to remain seated ! IT WASNT ALLOWED TO BE MANIC OR OTHERWISE !dont worry she felt the love ! what an amazing woman and her machine.the show was spectacular !she is so beautifull !
Did Letterman have her perform a whole concert? Holy smokes.
She doesn't use Auto Tune! You can just see it here!!! I LOVE FLORENCE AND THE MACHINE!! SHE IS THE BEST Florence and the Machine, Florence Welch Herself is a Goddess! PRAISE HER
Hands down my favorite live performance from her.
I love her move at 4:25

Amazig singer and music ...So much power in the voice .
And it's not mainstream music .
2017 and still haunting as hell

such an amazing voice!
It's 2017 and I can still feel the magic that is this music
aaaah the harp is such a beautiful instrument
Perfect. She's perfect.
Reminds me of Siouxsie and the Banshees back in the day. Great voice, full and -real-.
transition to the 3.00 is beautiful!
I got goosebumps 4 times listening to this!!
Her scream at 3:18 is just awesome. Not that the rest of her performance isn't freakin AWESOME! such an amazing singer and she's only 25
the crowd must have been told to stay seated or something... it's hardly humanly possible to SIT while watching this! amazing!
just take her voice and this simple moves and she owns the stage
Anyone notice the drummer? He gets so intense with this. I love it!
VOCAL QUEEN
she is just out of this world fucking love her voice... this song is very strong and passionate
She's just AMAZING
Wow what an amazing performance!
Beautiful as usual!
I'm a girl and completely straight but when I hear Flo sing and see her sway her body to her lovely music I must admit I am completely mesmerized by the woman.

I love the drums. Goodness.
Pure Talent Pure Soul
The true Red Woman!
There's a drumming noise inside my head
That starts when you're around
I swear that you could hear it
It makes such an all mighty sound
There's a drumming noise inside my head
That throws me to the ground
I swear that you should hear it
It makes such an all mighty sound
Louder than sirens
Louder than bells
Sweeter than heaven
And hotter than hell
I ran to a tower where the church bells chime
I hoped that they would clear my mind
They left a ringing in my ear
But that drum's still beating loud and clear
Louder than sirens
Louder than bells
Sweeter than heaven
And hotter than hell
Louder than sirens
Louder than bells
Sweeter than heaven
And hotter than hell
Louder than sirens
Louder than bells
Sweeter than heaven
And hotter than hell
As I move my feet towards your body
I can hear this beat it fills my head up
And gets louder and louder
It fills my head up and gets louder and louder
I run to the river and dive straight in
I pray that the water will drown out the din
But as the water fills my mouth
It couldn't wash the echoes out
But as the water fills my mouth
It couldn't wash the echoes out
I swallow the sound and it swallows me whole
'Til there's nothing left inside my soul
I'm as empty as that beating drum
But the sound has just begun
As I move my feet towards your body
I can hear this beat it fills my head up
And gets louder and louder
It fills my head up and gets louder and louder
There's a drumming noise inside my head
That starts when you're around
I swear that you could hear it
It makes such an all mighty sound
There's a drumming noise inside my head
That starts when you're around
I swear that you could hear it
It makes such an all mighty sound
Louder than sirens
Louder than bells
Sweeter than heaven
And hotter than hell
Louder than sirens
Louder than bells
Sweeter than heaven
And hotter than hell
As I move my feet towards your body
I can hear this beat it fills my head up
And gets louder and louder
It fills my head up and gets louder and louder
An absolute Goddess!
oh and i love this band so awesome!!!!!
I love that little scream she does at 3:17 SHE'S SO CUUUTE ♥
How the hell do you try and express how this woman and this sound makes you feel! I guess you can't, the only thing is you can sense something deep in your soul, pounding away with emotion, am I the only one that gets that? let me know
she is an alien, this song proves she's the master
Wow. Just wow.
I love this woman...
Most remarkable arranging of this dramatic piece. It's a real challenge to sing this without all the back vocals absent from the mix.
Oni są niesamowici!!! * __ *
Every time I watch this, I always get distracted wondering "are those shorts or a weird skirt?". Than I remember how awesome this song is and I stop caring about the shorts/skirt mystery.
A MELHOR VOZ DO MUNDO, INDISCUTÍVEL! ELA É DIVINA '---
Florence! I love U! You saved my life
her dancing makes me blush : x
2022 😍
This is sublime.
The most amazing woman ever!
2016 and i''m still shaking
a drumming noise inside my head.... she is the master regenerated
Besides, she doesn't sing the song exactly as it is in the studio version, she let her emotion carry her and her singing away. And that's what so wonderful about her, every performance is unique.
Pure energy!!
3:00 wow! her VOICE!!! AND she can DANCE!! Like really dance! :)
Forget the drums, Florence is hotter than hell!
except the face :/
