More quotes by Florence Welch
I've just never been a tracksuit-wearer.
Florence Welch
Lay me down, Let the only sound, Be the overflow, Pockets full of stones.
Florence Welch
I've got my ideal job. I like to sing, I like to dance, I like to bang drums and dress up, and someone pays me - it's incredible.
Florence Welch
I look really odd in jeans and a hoodie - it doesn't feel or seem right.
Florence Welch
I can't wait to get on stage, because there you don't worry about whether you'll ever get married because your life is insane, or whether you'll ever have another boyfriend again, you don't worry about the typical boundaries of how your life has to be.
Florence Welch
I think I've always looked older than I am. I hope that's going to work in my favor when I get older.
Florence Welch
You know, people always ask, 'What are you like offstage?' And I always say, 'Well, I'm completely normal and mellow.'
Florence Welch
I've spent a lot of time in tiny venues in the way that I got my record deal and got my name out there just performing live. I was literally performing my songs in all kinds of different ways with different guitarists, and I didn't have an album up online or anything. It's been a lot of work it definitely hasn't been a sudden explosion into fame.
Florence Welch
Going to parties usually makes me feel depressed, just because I have such social fear after meeting people.
Florence Welch
I dyed my hair red when I was ten and when I was 11 - in my goth period - I dyed it black and I was really into witchcraft. I made mini shrines in my bedroom with candles and tried to cast spells to make the boy in the next class fall in love with me. I don't think he did.
Florence Welch
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.
Florence Welch
You live and you learn.
Florence Welch
I think an encore is perfectly acceptable, but I find it so weird when people do two or three.
Florence Welch
I made music with my friend, who we called Isabella Machine to which I was Florence Robot. When I was about an hour away from my first gig, I still didn't have a name, so I thought 'Okay, I'll be Florence Robot/Isa Machine', before realising that name was so long it'd drive me mad.
Florence Welch
I'd gone from being this art student messing about with music to this girl with a record deal, magazine front covers and all this hype. In many ways, it was everything I ever wanted, but when it happened all I felt was total, paralysing fear.
Florence Welch
For someone so conflicted, who am I to give advice to anybody? It’s such a funny, grandiose idea
Florence Welch
I'm completely in love with the world but also terrified of it. It creates some overwhelming feelings. Wanting to battle out that joy and fear is part of my music.
Florence Welch
I was always that girl growing up who you could find dancing down supermarket aisles. It's that sense of not feeling inhibited. Dancing in supermarkets is my favorite thing.
Florence Welch
I'm obsessed with choirs, and always have been, because of that sense of overwhelming vocals.
Florence Welch
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
