Cosmic Love

Came across this gem of a band this evening. This is the first time I have ever heard of Florence and The Machine, but I am absolutely mystified by this song, "Cosmic Love."

  • "Let’s talk about magic. Because music, at its best, is a kind of magic that lifts you up and takes you somewhere else. 'I want my music to sound like throwing yourself out of a tree, or off a tall building, or as if you’re being sucked down into the ocean and you can’t breathe,' says Florence Welch. 'It’s something overwhelming and all-encompassing that fills you up, and you’re either going to explode with it, or you’re just going to disappear,' says Welch (From Florence and The Machine Website).




Could she have said it any better?? From what I gather, Florence Welch is a beautiful mess that I would love to learn more about. Any insight to her music is welcomed. As I listen to "Cosmic Love," I can't help but fall into a turmoil of day dreams that encircle the Lowcountry region. Only 4 more days until I fly to Charleston [sigh]. Hope you are all staying warm this February.
