"Shake it out" and "What kind of man" are just as good as this one. However, this one holds a special place in my heart, it was the first time I heard Florence + The Machine.
This is maybe one of the best and certainly the most ICONIC song by Florence The videos from the lungs album are very abstract. I think You would really enjoy the "how Big how blue how beautiful" era especially "what kind of man" "ship to wreck" and "st jude"
Please continue watching the "lungs" : their first album mv's before starting the ceremonials era I'd recommand "Rabbit heart" next ... interesting mv with alot of symbolism and imagery i hope you'd catch them
@@wakingribbons That's a huge laundry list . . . I'll put it as short as I can, if you want details I'll provide them. 1. She sold out just by becoming Gaga. - She was a failed musician who's first album flopped and changed her entire being as an artist including an appearance. The appearance is fine, everyone changes looks but she copied the hair, fashion and didn't even change the poses paired with these looks stealing the entire image someone else relied on for fame well over a dozen times. 2. her music is plagiarized. People think because a lawsuit isn't made, it's not plagiarized and no, I'm not talking about inspiration. You can't an exact song, slap new lyrics on it and a few sound effects and pretend it's a new song. If you do that it's still classified as a cover or if it's humorous a parody Covers pay royalties. If you use a bit of it, it's a sample and you still pay to use that. She doesn't and we've seen how inconsistantly music lawsuits have been recently including with the Katy Perry DarkHorse scandal where Todd Decker, a chair of music made a claim that can be debunked by his own book he just published four years prior! " Fashion of his Love " --- Whitney's" I wanna Dance With Somebody " " Dance In The Dark " - Depeche Mode's " Strangelove " "Alejandro " - Ace of Base's " Don't Turn Around " The list goes on and on and on. I could list a dozen more but you see how long this has already gotten. The final being her willingness to cross the line with shock value. She has no morals or standards with it. Being tacky and doing costume changes at inappropriate times is one thing, but having people vomit paint on her in public? Okay, whatever. But where she crossed the line was when she put THOUSANDS of fans in danger. Yes, Lady Gaga deemed shock value so worth it that she as she claims, an alleged sex victim decided to pull the world's most famous sex offender(proven sex offender who got away with it until recent years) out of retirement, line his pockets with cash and do a little song called " DO WHAT U WANT WITH MY BODY " and take him on tour. Yes R. Kelly, " DO WHAT U WANT WITH MY BODY " but next year rape isn't cool because I gotta be there for KeSha in time to win Woman of the Year. Gaga is a joke.
I always thought that this "horses" was a reference to an end. but today, with your observations, i think its is a cavalry coming to save the place from some evil invaders. So no more hiding, no more cry. Florece talk abou feelings in an epic way. My favourite is "big god". Looks inpired in caravaggio's painting
Really happy to see someone reacting and discovering Florence. She's still so underrated! Hope you will continue and review her album by album so you can really see her growth:) Cheers! btw there was another, older MV for this song which made more sense with the lyrics and her aesthetic at that time
It's about a girl falling in love, being so happy she is in the clouds. The relationship goes south and they start to be abusive, her family are terrified the relationship will kill her so she needs to leave everything behind and run to survive. Dog Days Are Over, she is out of the relationship and is ecstatic to have her life back, that's why the video is crazy because of the feelings she has to be alive to tell her story.
You hit the nail on the head. For the past 10 years I have been in and out of hospitals each trip spending weeks if not months stuck in there with surgeries and tests and absolutley miserable. Every time I get discharged from there on the drive home I always, ALWAYS listen to this song. It reminds me to be grateful, to love every second I have in living the life I do. Your happiness and your destiny are what you make of it. Grab it by the reins, society and propriety be damned.
I used to sang this for my grandma when she was ill, I said to her “come on granny, you will be ok”, a few days later she passed... it has been almost 4 years since then and I’m crying as I write this. Thanks for the react.
This song, Shake It Out, and No Light No Light are like the three iconic songs from them but there’s so many other great songs by them. She has a powerful voice. There’s a live version of No Light No Light where she held a high note for 28 seconds
Love that you did this. You said 'This too shall pass' Have you ever listened to OK Go? If not - everything. Just... everything. You can start with A Million Ways, Here it goes again or obsession. If nothing else. THE VIDEOS, good Lord. They're a marvel all on their own. The one with the treadmills, the one with the printers... the one with THE CAR PLAYING ALL THE INSTRUMENTS.
Mother and Queen of Peace are my favourites from her. Favourite Artist. Breath of Life by her is a GREAT choice if you want to review a song backed by an orchestra
This was one of their breakthrough songs along with their cover of YOU'VE GOT THE LOVE. as others have mentioned their next album Ceremonials (2011) has a few other hits like SHAKE IT OUT, NEVER LET ME GO & SPECTRUM (SAY MY NAME). The latter was remixed in 2012 by Calvin Harris, leading Florence to appear on his song SWEET NOTHING. Again as others note since you like Gaga, Florence did a song with her on Joanne called HEY GIRL. Also a song I enjoy is OVER THE LOVE from the Great Gatsby Soundtrack (2013) - Lana Del Rey also did a song there called YOUNG & BEAUTIFUL, which was a single from it. WHAT KIND OF MAN is also has a bit of a rockier tinged sound in parts.
Rabbit Heart is so beautiful, you should react to that one next. In fact i can't wait and I'm gonna listen to it now. It's so beautiful and very dear to me.
Please please please continue your Florence reactions! The 2nd album Ceremonials has a lot of cinematic and epic songs, biblical references galore and a choir to go with it. Very sad, sexy, mesmerizing. The 3rd How Big How Blue How Beautiful is cathartic - the Odyssey film everyone asks you to react to is made up of the songs from this album. It's about breakups, relationships, finding your way out of pain. The 4th album High as Hope is about healing. It's about finding your place, reminiscing, reevaluating life and admitting you've fucked up. To keep it short, Florence is a freaking good lyricist, so you wont be bored :D
You should check out her song called 'No Light, No Light' and another one called 'Seven Devils' I believe..... you will really like the change of Sound in her Voice and the sound of the Music..... Very Beautiful Songs Both
This whole record is magical and essential to anyone going through dark times. I recommend checking out 'Hey Girl' by Lady Gaga and Florence. It's fun but deep.
sometimes videos don't need to make sense and i like that. It can seem totally unrelated to the song, but it could still be a visual representation of the emotion and feeling of the song.
@@SuperJersh the song is prerecorded, so they wouldn't actually play anything when they taped the music video and mistake me if im wrong, but i don't think this is the band. those are just actors. (i think, but i don't know of course)
I had the same reaction.. heard the song a million times but have never seen the music video.. I still don't know what the hell was going on 🤣 I revise my opinion I preferred the previous song Cosmic Light. No light, No light is better in every way to me compared to this one.
You've gotta react to the whole of The Odyssey, it's a film Florence and the Machine made with the songs from the How Big, How Blue, How Beautiful album, and it's absolutely amazing. If you want Videos that tell a story, you won't be disappointed with The Odyssey film. You can watch it in parts, with each song's video, as they're up on UA-cam individually, or you could watch it all in one go like a proper film.
You have to have experienced extreme loss to understand. The message isn’t move on and be happy. It’s how do you survive such great losses when confronted with possible happiness.
Please react to her newer music like “Hunger”! That’s a lot better and her voice and music have improved so much over the last 10 years since Dog Days and Cosmic Love
I think you will enjoy reacting to "The Oddysey" by florence. It's a beautiful short film directed by Vincent Haycock including songs from her best album (in my opinion at least) "How Big, How Blue, How Beautiful". 49 minutes of greatness.
it's art! videos don't need to make sense lol the original bandies (harpist, gat & keys still with her now) are her guitarist who was a friend & science student i think, who played in his bedroom mainly. he brought in his friend & original drummer, the keyboardist was her little siblings baby-sitter who had her own little studio the size of a walk-in wardrobe, & she was an art student, when they all got together. they saw the harpist walking round the studio halls where they were laying tracks & asked him to join, too. she & they were happy to be raw. not to be so prolific, & just polished enough to do gig's. keep their wonderment about they're music, & have fun. they're incredible all these years later; especially live. amazing woman & band, & very unique. Flo is such an amazing song-writer, as well as vocalist & performer
Do "Hunger"...."Seven Devils"...."drumming song" She is amazing live!she scraped up her leg bad while jumping onto a concrete beam in the middle of the crowd.... at the second show we went too and she was bleeding while still finishing the show.She seams very shy and innocent while talking to her in person....but on stage she is a whole different type of creature!I love it!🥰
React to more of her please! Also please react to The Odyssey videos from her album How Big, How Blue, How Beautiful. Dont forget to check out Aurora - Murder Song (5, 4, 3, 2, 1) acoustic as well.
React to the duet she did with Lady Gaga ! Lady Gaga Ft. Florence Welch - Hey Girl ! It's one of her most underrated song and that's why I'm really interested to get your reaction of it since you react to both of these great artists !
"Shake it out" and "What kind of man" are just as good as this one. However, this one holds a special place in my heart, it was the first time I heard Florence + The Machine.
"Shake it out" but it took me a minute to realize it, too lol
@@fite96 you are right. Shake it off is the one from Taylor Swift lol
i was just coming to request both of these too so thank you for beating me to it!
This is maybe one of the best and certainly the most ICONIC song by Florence
The videos from the lungs album are very abstract. I think You would really enjoy the "how Big how blue how beautiful" era especially "what kind of man" "ship to wreck" and "st jude"
Please continue watching the "lungs" : their first album mv's before starting the ceremonials era
I'd recommand "Rabbit heart" next ... interesting mv with alot of symbolism and imagery i hope you'd catch them
WHAT KIND OF MAN NEXT PLEASE!
Spoiler: Florence Welch (this Florence) did a song with Lady Gaga on her album Joanne.
You're welcome.😁
Spoiler: It is called Hey Girl.
Which is kind of sad. I love Florence and I like that song but, Gaga is literally the worst person in the music industry. :/
@@iTeacupPanda how do you figure she's the "worst person in the music industry"??

One thing I learned about music videos, some can have story arcs and others are just a work of art.
“I have no idea what the Cosmic Love video was about”
*Watches the weirdest one next.*
React next to what kind of man, shake it out or never let me go

"The Odyssey" series is very good, more meaning than just visuals, though my favourite of her videos is definitely her video for "Hunger"
This was the first Florence song I loved! Her voice is incredible. I’m glad you’re liking her music
I suggest "Shake it out" as your next reaction! I'd like to see that :-)
I used to sang this for my grandma when she was ill, I said to her “come on granny, you will be ok”, a few days later she passed... it has been almost 4 years since then and I’m crying as I write this. Thanks for the react.
They did this song on SNL. It was stunning!

Fiona Apple - To Your Love
Dog Days. Astronomy, literature, music, are full of it. Even a Christmas Carol mentions it.

Kimbra - Plain Gold Ring live
The glee version of this is one of their best performances. That and Faithfully at sectionals and Halooooooooooo

Thanks for reacting to this one! I’ve liked this song for years, but never knew it had such a cool, weirdass video with it.
him being so naive to think they are actually playing the instruments in the video is adorable haha
U mean this band doesn’t play their own instruments?
@@SuperJersh the song is prerecorded, so they wouldn't actually play anything when they taped the music video and mistake me if im wrong, but i don't think this is the band. those are just actors. (i think, but i don't know of course)
Henri Köster Lol, of course it’s not played live it’s a music video I don’t know what gave you that impression that I thought that but I didn’t 😂😂
@@SuperJersh 7:03 but yeah just watched it again and i see how you meant it now haha
This song is about happiness and joy and leaving the dog days or depression behind and letting go of them.
I had the same reaction.. heard the song a million times but have never seen the music video.. I still don't know what the hell was going on 🤣 I revise my opinion I preferred the previous song Cosmic Light. No light, No light is better in every way to me compared to this one.

Kimbra-settle down
I just found this song a couple of days ago when I heard Katy Perry's snl impression of it.
You have to have experienced extreme loss to understand. The message isn’t move on and be happy. It’s how do you survive such great losses when confronted with possible happiness.

Ooh you should also react to Hobo Johnson, I think starting with Subaru Crosstrek for a laugh would be good, or his tiny desk concert
React to more of her please! Also please react to The Odyssey videos from her album How Big, How Blue, How Beautiful. Dont forget to check out Aurora - Murder Song (5, 4, 3, 2, 1) acoustic as well.
Enjoyed this as always! Would be interesting to hear your take on Seven devils by florence and the machine :)
YES YES YES FINALLY! 😍
You HAVE to react to the How Big How Blue How Beautiful album!
Would love to see you react to something from MIKA and/or Scissor Sisters
RINA SAWAYAMA “STFU!” BOT OVER HERE 😳✌️

React to Spectrum by Florence and the Machine. And really anything live. She's so fun, one day I hope to see her in person.
Before I even start watching I would like to say, thank you.
If you want to see a video that is 100% related to the song, go for "The One that Got Away" from Katy Perry
You need to react to "you've got the love" from the teenage cancer fund concert. It's an amazing performance, very different
GENESIS BY GRIMES
React to the duet she did with Lady Gaga ! Lady Gaga Ft. Florence Welch - Hey Girl ! It's one of her most underrated song and that's why I'm really interested to get your reaction of it since you react to both of these great artists !
Estrum - All I Want
Katatonia - My Twin
Ceremonials is their best album yet imo, especially if you’re looking out for clever lyrics. Highly recommend you react to songs from that one!
Espectrum by Florence + the machine next, please!
More Florence please - What Kind of Man 🌺🔥🌲
Sometimes a video is just a video.
Yeah never think about stuff, that’s my motto
There is a beautiful video of her singing to young woman in the hospital. If you have a chance, watch it.
MORE FLORENCE!
Hey! I was thinking about your Sad Olympics, and Robyn would be a great candidate. You should react to Dancing on my own and Call your girlfriend
