Can't You Hear The Horses? 'Cause Here They Come!

I was not sure what to expect when I was handed the “Lungs” album early last year and was told to hear it, but since I love hearing new music I was excited.  The second I put it into my CD player and “Dog Days Are Over” started playing I was blown away.  Her voice was different. The music was different. The lyrics were out there! I LOVED IT! Now, experience it for yourself:

I’m sure many of you have figured out whom I’m speaking about, but if not I guess I should tell you. It’s Florence And The Machine.  They are a band from South London that have an eclectic sound and feel to them.

After their performance at the MTV Video Music Awards in 2010, everyone was talking about Florence. Facebook was bombarded with status updates all about Florence during the performance. No one had heard of them. Some people loved them, and others were confused with their theatricality. For me, the Florence performance was the only reason I watched the award show, and I loved every second of the performance.

It’s exciting to see such an eclectic group do so well. Their music has been featured in the hit TV show Glee, in the video game Dragon Age 2, and was even featured in the Twilight: Eclipse film.

Their music truly speaks for itself. Their quirky lyrics and beats will truly captivate your ears. If you want a feel good song that will make you feel as positive as they come you must listen to “Dog Days Are Over.” If you want a different kind of love song, then you must listen to “I’m not Calling you a Liar.” If you want a song about the type of relationship NO ONE should be in, then you must hear “Kiss With A Fist.”

As always, I want to leave you with some GREAT music! Sit back, enjoy and let the horses take you, can’t you hear them coming?
