The stage is the place I feel comfortable - it's almost as if real life is where I feel most nervous. Conversations are a lot more nerve-wracking.
Florence Welch
Image
You can forget anything, and actually being a part of a crowd, of a group, can itself be freeing.
Florence Welch
Image
I'm obsessed with choirs, and always have been, because of that sense of overwhelming vocals.
Florence Welch
Image
I've learned not to hide behind a veil of irony - to talk about my work in a more honest way.
Florence Welch
Image
You should have high expectations for yourself and others should come second.

I look really odd in jeans and a hoodie - it doesn't feel or seem right.
Florence Welch
Image
Music to me is so internal. It's physical and it's emotional. Whereas fashion is so much about the external that it's almost like a break. It's not inner turmoil. It's total escapism.

I think I just get excited by music, and, like, singing is a very physical thing. It releases endorphins in your body. You're using almost muscle in there, and I think that adrenaline really helps to kind of make the songs fresh every time.

I think waste of your brain is something that my mother would say to me occasionally - I think it's usually when I'm telling her something like that I can remember every outfit I've ever worn.

Image
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.

I wanted to be a witch when I was a kid. I was obsessed with witchcraft. At school, me and my two friends had these spell books I always wanted a more magical reality. I had a little shrine at home and I did a spell to try and make the boy in the other class fall in love with me.

My visual landscape as a child was the inside of a lot of these old churches. And the Baroque drama of the things was what I was first engaging with artwise. I'm much more attracted to the aesthetic of religious iconography than the actual religious side. The passion and the blood and the violence and the gaudy side of it I find really fascinating.

I don't want your future, I don't need your past. One bright moment Is all I ask.

Image
It’s good to be vulnerable in amongst the grandeur you shouldn’t lose that sense of intimacy and vulnerability with people.
Florence Welch
Image
I try to maintain a healthy dose of daydreaming, to remain sane.

For someone so conflicted, who am I to give advice to anybody? It’s such a funny, grandiose idea

If you asked me to go back to being 14 or 15, I couldn't - it was a terrifying time. I was so awkward in my own skin. I used to hide behind my hair because I was so ridiculously self-conscious.

Image
I like a house party and fancy dress, a big fan of fancy dress, like dress up, costume parties.

I think I just have a problem generally in life of wanting more of everything - more emotion, more drama, more glitz.
