Kella The Killjoy are you kidding? shes SO popular! she is headlining massive festivals this summer and her own shows are selling out on the days they go on sale. shes insanely popular. she worked her way up to the top and she deserves being with the biggest acts on the planet
i get that. i wish she was more popular than ariana grande or that shit. but in "alternative rock" (i guess that's what you'd call her music? idk) she's very popular. i know what you mean though :/
After making Breath of Life in 2011, she asked her manager if she could bring the orchestra and the choir with them on tour for that song and her manager was like "Flo, we can't afford this!!!!" because that is a shit ton of people
She is an extreme introvert, on the personality test, Myers-Briggs-INFP-Introverted iNtuitive Feeling Perceiving (Introverted Feeling with Extraverted Intuition) Other famous INFP's are, C.C. Lewis, Edgar Allen Poe, J.K. Rowling, Jude Law, Virginia Wolff-( Florence wrote "what the water gave me about her"), William Shakespeare, Kurt Cobain, Vincent Van Gogh, George Orwell, John Lennon, Jim Morrison, Helen Keller. I am an INFP as well and was instantly drawn to Florence, it takes a lot of guts for an introvert to perform live, she pulls it off!
I love how people continue to denounce Drake's version but what they don't realise is that the beautiful words Florence is singing came ultimately from the genius that is Drake. Rap is just as beautiful and powerful as poetry.
they would be stupid not acknowledge that he wrote a beautiful song, but you and i know that can't really beat Florence on vocals on his best day, because he is a rapper. But Florence just killed it with this rendition. P.S. just saying do not attack me.
I love how her talking voice is so quiet and gentle... But then she opens her mouth to sing and... Wow. If you had never heard her sing, you wouldn't think she could do it so well.
Its funny how absolute idiots say that Drake is a crap artist & praise Florence...but Florence wouldn't even agree with these idiots because she says Drake is one of her favs...people are so fucking stupid. Florence wouldn't even want them as fans.
I can't believe I've gone this long without hearing most of her songs. I've always loved her mainstream hits, but there was a depth to her music that I couldn't fully appreciate until recently. Now, it sends goosebumps up my arms and fills my eyes with tears. Every single song she sings is beautiful beyond words.
The song has a whole different meaning with such an emotional, yet powerful voice, the undertones, and the violins! It just makes me live one more day to wake up and listen to this song.
Why tf doesn’t she have a Grammy yet? It’s so annoying seeing others win knowing Florence has the best voice, songs, videos, and live performances! It’s a musical crime at this point!
I've never heard of Florence before. A friend told me to watch this tonight because she thought I'd like it. Wow! This was amazing! It's crazy how you discovery things!
I love all these live lounge covers. A different spin on a song can be the difference between hating and loving it. In the hands of a talent like Florence, its guaranteed gold.
I remember this every couple of months and have to come listen. I love her cover of this so much, it takes all the restrained emotion of the original and makes it big and consuming
I vidded this in May 2016 so over 7 years ago now. Edited a fanvideo set to this song. I don't think i even realized it was a live version. It was just so good but i never saw all the visuals. I adore this even more now. It's... so impressive wow.
Take Drake himself, lately he's been doing a lot of that. Too Good is a song that stresses on lyrics and sung verses. not only those of Rihanna. The Weeknd, tho he's more R&B. Jidenna and Sampha are mic examples I've been listening to lately :)
RandomGus There's an entire Grammy category dedicated to the rap/sung genre. This genre has been around since Destiny's Child, the most classic example is Say My Name.
10 years after and I'm still loving this cover
Same. I keep coming back. Love everything about this
Same😂
Best Live Lounge cover for me. Happy for someone to name a better one 🙂
Same!!!
Always
5 years later and it's still one of the greatest covers I've come across
Miley Lover 8 years later and still one of the greatest covers I’ve come across
^^^
@jon castro no dude riri's part is from-(gil scott heron i'll take care of you) this is the original song
true
I listen to it almost everyday. It’s amazing.
That wasn't just any water she sipped, it was Holy water because she just blessed Tf outta of us.
Or it was straight vodka.
right!
Lmaooo
Nyah Crawford It's a reference to a concert she did way back when, when she DID drink a little before gigs.
Holy cow 243 likes? The comment literally popped up in my head like I didn't know it would even get a like xD
My God it is 2023 and I'm still here and still thinking that this cover deserves a studio record
Same
she deserves so much more popularity
Kella The Killjoy are you kidding? shes SO popular! she is headlining massive festivals this summer and her own shows are selling out on the days they go on sale. shes insanely popular. she worked her way up to the top and she deserves being with the biggest acts on the planet
Dean Griffin I meant where i live. She needs to be popular than those shitty singers. That's what I meant.
i get that. i wish she was more popular than ariana grande or that shit. but in "alternative rock" (i guess that's what you'd call her music? idk) she's very popular. i know what you mean though :/
Dean Griffin I like her voice, but she is boring to watch to. Not really a performer, in my opinion and sadly. I like her.
***** There are a lot of videos out there of her live performances that I think are very exciting.
I still love how she says “I hope we can do it justice” as if it wasn’t a hundred times better than the original
Depends if you're talking about Riri and Drake or Gill Scott 😏
The original was terrible
One has quarter billion views, and the other... 🤷🏽♂️
@@mazharmiah oh well if it has a lot of views, it must be super good. Everyone knows mass appeal is usually a good indicator of quality
@@paroonjoos and just because a MUCH smaller group likes something doesn't mean its better either. you sound just as ignorant. hush puppy
she deserves all the Grammys. this woman is oozing TALENT
cu
She should have an orchestra with her, like 24/7
She did a live show at the Albert Hall with a orchestra, it's crazy
After making Breath of Life in 2011, she asked her manager if she could bring the orchestra and the choir with them on tour for that song and her manager was like "Flo, we can't afford this!!!!" because that is a shit ton of people
@@zhenyilani4535 yeah lol
Only Florence can make you feel she's still singing even when she's completely owning the rap section.
one of the best live lounge covers ever
ua-cam.com/video/YgsPMr0FhQk/v-deo.htmlsi=rO-fjuwX2Q8oQe1R
It's crazy to think this cover is over a decade old at this point, and still one of the most amazing I have ever heard. 🤩
those were the days.
Florence Welsh has one of the most amazing voice of this century
welch*
No doubt, USA music producers should take note of what TALENT really is. So much more than just a pretty face

+t starr I'm also and INFP hey there lol
her voice is hauntingly perfect
Ahhhhhh ik ik ik ik!!!!
this doesn't get old. I've been listening to this since 8years ago!
✌
why didn’t let anyone know how good this was? who holds on to that for 8 years
Her speaking voice is so soft, I didn't expect that
+MusicMakesMeNormal i figure her voice is too powerful for a mic lol she had to go super soft on it not to destroy it lol
It blew my mind when i first heard her speak, how her singing could be so powerful and her speech could be so soft and quiet
I had to turn the volume way up just to hear what she was saying, lol. 😅
@@amberp3979 A whisper or a scream with nothing in between XD
She actually raps .. Omg i love her.
i love how her voice is so soft when she talks and her singing voice is so booming and beautiful
one of the best covers ever done. here is 2020 and won't be leaving anytime soon.
11 years later, listening to Florence’s amazing vocals! I still can’t believe i got to watch her liveeee
Every musician in that room created one of the greatest live performances of all time.
Enigmatic beyond belief.
she's the next supreme
Tobias Bass yaaaaaaas
hahahahahaha omg.
🙌🏽
She has always been
Bow down witches!
I love how humble she is . Even with a voice like that !!!
Damn, she started killin it @ 1:37. I like her version better.
"I hope we can do it justice"
sure Flo... sure... "hope"
Frank S lol right
HaHa,if anyone else had said it,I would call it false modesty,but I honestly believe that,that woman does not know how awesome she is.
John Jessome yup
"hope we do it jus..." oila
Nearly 10 years ago 😭 what an era I miss this music so much just takes me back to a certain time and place
She sings with so much ease. It's beautiful.
there is just no word that can describe the talent this woman possess
She's so captivating! When she started breaking it down my heart was racing
2016 and re watching as if it was the first time. Flawless and breathtaking!
Same
Yep!
2017
2018 and same

I agree with you completely. I do love this version but that does not make Drakes any less then wonderful.
Rap is poetry where have you been......
Wrong. The lyrics were Gil Herons. Drake and Rihanna's version was a cover, see below comments. I do like Drake's version too though!
R.hythm A.nd P.oetry
they would be stupid not acknowledge that he wrote a beautiful song, but you and i know that can't really beat Florence on vocals on his best day, because he is a rapper. But Florence just killed it with this rendition. P.S. just saying do not attack me.
OMG She's so cute and quiet XD it's adorable
Rewatching in 2019 and I still get chills
She makes it her own. It's simply beautiful ❤️
woww... my comment doesnt express how amazed I am at her performance. goodness
I love how her talking voice is so quiet and gentle... But then she opens her mouth to sing and... Wow. If you had never heard her sing, you wouldn't think she could do it so well.
I would've never ever imagined her singing this song but it's a stunning fusion and I'm blown away by it.
I wonder if Drake has seen this. I'd like to believe that if he were to see this, he would instantly want to collab.
+Chyna Deveroux Hell no, he sucks.
Evolv23 To each his own :)
Support someone who rips off other artists for his own? No thanks.
Florence is much more talented than that piece of crap.
Its funny how absolute idiots say that Drake is a crap artist & praise Florence...but Florence wouldn't even agree with these idiots because she says Drake is one of her favs...people are so fucking stupid. Florence wouldn't even want them as fans.

And the angels looked down and wept with jealousy for they have nothing like Florence in heaven.
Nathan Robertson Soon enough though! 😇
lockergr lmao wtf that’s kind of a dark comment 💀
lockergr no she’ll be here with us for a very long time
Weird flex

She has one of those voices that really make you think about the lyrics and feel them deeply
I've never heard of Florence before. A friend told me to watch this tonight because she thought I'd like it. Wow! This was amazing! It's crazy how you discovery things!
This cover brings back so many great memories from my 9th grade year back in 2011/2012
Florence the ginger goddess!
I love all these live lounge covers. A different spin on a song can be the difference between hating and loving it. In the hands of a talent like Florence, its guaranteed gold.
That cross-eyed moment is *perfection*
Live lounge has never been the same after this spectacular cover ❤....years on & it's still feels amazing 😊
This is so good I’m listening years later I’m so in love with this😍
4:48 LMFAO. still perfect
Lol my gf makes that face when we wrestle
+TTV TTV what's the face Bran makes when you throw him to the ground
SS do
+camila severiche haha thought I was the only one who noticed it xD anyway I agree, she is perfect
It's 2014, but i still love this cover. Florence is the best female singer ever ;))
djzaya 2018 also loving this
djzaya its 2018 and I still love this cover
She's so cute and shy omg I just love her!
i wish this whole show was still available! the version of "never let me go" was the best i've ever seen...
The greatest female Artist so far !!!!!!
Jacqueline62 her and Beyoncé are the actual best
highly debatable but I'll be damned if her voice isn't among the greatest.
Her voice is great but she’s not the greatest
i like how she's so soft spoken , then you hear her sing
That moment at 4:49 when she's momentarily cross-eyed.
Florence has the most majestic voice
That's what happens when you make love to music lol
😳
That happens a lot with her but people dont notice lol Just watch ship to wreck live le grand journal
I can NOT believe this cover-let alone this song!-is nearly TENNE years old ? tf where did the years go?
2023 takes me way back. best cover ever made
I remember this every couple of months and have to come listen. I love her cover of this so much, it takes all the restrained emotion of the original and makes it big and consuming
this was fucking amazing
This is in every way an absolute masterpiece. Being performed nice just destroys everything else.
Can we all just agree a little Florence makes everything better? I want to buy every remix she does.
I vidded this in May 2016 so over 7 years ago now. Edited a fanvideo set to this song. I don't think i even realized it was a live version. It was just so good but i never saw all the visuals. I adore this even more now. It's... so impressive wow.
FAB-U-LOUS!!! Florence takes a good song….runs it through her machine….re-imagines it….owns it….belts it out….and creates MAGIC. ✨
The year is 2020 and this is still one of the best live lounges to exist, everything about this is just perfection
I REALLY need someone to develop a music genre where it's like rap but sung..... because that verse she did was MAGICAL!!
There's loads of artists out right now that fit that description.
Take Drake himself, lately he's been doing a lot of that. Too Good is a song that stresses on lyrics and sung verses. not only those of Rihanna. The Weeknd, tho he's more R&B. Jidenna and Sampha are mic examples I've been listening to lately :)
Like Drake, maybe?
Panda cover by Karmin on UA-cam is this x10
RandomGus There's an entire Grammy category dedicated to the rap/sung genre. This genre has been around since Destiny's Child, the most classic example is Say My Name.
lovely cover amazing pure emotions
I've never heard such a beautiful voice in Live
Amaziiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiing
I had the absolute pleasure of meeting Florence and it was without a doubt a lovely experience. Star stuck
That guitar effect is everything I need in life
she's radiant
omg...she
went at Drake speed REALLY
IMPRESSIVE!!!
I will love her and her voice forever! What a lady!! this song tho is something else, I always come back to it always
She is such an AMAZING, talented singer! 16 years and no Grammy awards!!!!!!
Song hits *a lot* different when you’re making a long drive home across the country right before the lockdown.
I hope you & yours are safe & you were successful in the Care you Take. 😘 Cheers!
saw this live in 2012...flawless vocally
I keep coming back to this. Just brilliant
I could listen to this ALL Day EVERY day and NEVER get bored of it!
It's simply stunning. She makes it her own!
Can we please get this on Spotify 😢
Hauntingly beautiful voice 🔥💛✌
Holiday
@@johnmorobane9634
Holiday?! I could do with one of those right now lol
Wow, 11 years ago. Remember this so vividly. Still so good.
Absolutely Love this WOMAN!!!
still in love w this!! they truly made this song their own beautiful rendition and Florence's voice is of coarse beautiful!
Florence and The Machine nailed this one! Love this cover. She is mesmerizing. Her energy and style are contagious. Thanks for sharing this.
She's one of the most understated singers in the world ....flo #1 2021
I love this version. like it more than the original. I love florence
2 years ago i posted this and still cant stop listening this song
She’s like a mythical character...she’s on that wave length where only the most special of talents land...
2019 and this is still one of the best covers I've ever heard.
She has to be the most underrated singer in history 🙁
She is so, insanely beautiful.
I can’t watch this without getting some feeling flowing throughout my body she’s amazing
It doesn't matter what year it is, a good song doesn't die with age and this cover is amazing. :D
Pure catharsis is what this rendition is
Goodness gracious
It's been years and I still get goosebumps every time I listen to this
She laughed so hard because doing it justice would be a huge understatement!
Amazing song, amazing woman, amazing cover. I love her.
My older sister put me onto Florence and the machine. Awesome!-This lady is a genius.
2024 still here👏🏾I love it!
SHE ROCKS
