"I think that with Breaking Down it’s important that it.. I’m like- I’m like- I’m like obsessed with sad songs with happy tunes. I think. and I, umm.. I really wanted it to be… this… I like the hap- like I wou-… again, like, to take that feeling of complete like, ‘oh god it’s happening again’ you know what I mean? like, that feeling of impending, sort of sadness, and maybe turn it on it’s head, and.. uuh, I think that’s kinda my, maybe my way of dealing with things, is.. is to take, take that sadness and turn it into something that.. I can kinda.. sing, umm.. sing, with- with joy. In that- in that sense, of tackling it, I guess."
- Florence Welch (on the song “Breaking Down”)
