The words of Florence Leontine Mary Welch

"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… 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."

"The music is so euphoric,as a way of battling the words. It’s like an exorcism, beating it out with drums, shake this demon out, it’s so visceral because the melancholy has to be drummed out. I can’t let it sit inside me."

"
“I became really obsessed with watching Otis Reading, Sam and Dave, clips from the ’60s and the Lana Del Rey videos recently.
YouTube is a huge thing for me to find songs, it’s an amazing thing and full of the most random songs.

I think for finding random stuff and seeing new things it’s really useful.”

"I do really want to have a family at some point. And have a relationship that actually works. And stay in the same place for three months. Being a performer is so much of who I am but I really want to live in Rome. I’d like to feed my brain for a bit, see some art, learn Italian. Or get an English literature degree. Or go back to art college."

"The drive up was unbelievable, like, looking at the glasshouse mountains. This one mountain, I thought it was the main stage, ‘cause it looked like a pyramid! I was like ‘Is that the stage?’ and they were like ‘No…..that’s a mountain-…idiot-…English people, Jesus.."

"Excitable, easily distracted, sometimes vacant, prone to gloominess and also extreme euphoria; I can’t be generous with time, but I try to be generous with affection. I’m really lucky to be able to be in some of these situations and it feels really nice to be able to take people along with me for the ride. Oh, and I’m a pain in the ass as well."

- Florence Welch describing herself

"Then there was Limp Bizkit - I remember Fred Durst bring like “grab a lady, everyone grab a lady” and me being 14 and really uncomfortable” “thinking maybe someone will pick me up! But no-one did. No-one wants a chubby 14-year-old in a roller derby t-shirt and ripped fairy wings!"
