More quotes by Florence Welch
I've always been a bit of a decorator. I think if I wasn't a singer I'd probably be in stage setting or interior design or something. I like clutter and I'm quite visually greedy. I can't have things to be plain I have to have things looking interesting maybe I'm just a frustrated interior designer stuck in a singing career.
Florence Welch
I'm a choir girl gone horribly, desperately wrong.
Florence Welch
I've learned not to hide behind a veil of irony - to talk about my work in a more honest way.
Florence Welch
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
I got to live out my 11-year-old fantasies - I got to go on stage with Green Day. Billie Joe called my name from the stage. 'Dookie' was the first album I ever bought. I covered the whole of 'Nimrod' and he'd heard it. That was like the 11-year-old girl dreamed.
Florence Welch
You can forget anything, and actually being a part of a crowd, of a group, can itself be freeing.
Florence Welch
When I am with my family, then I can just sort of switch off. It's kind of weird, because I go back and I go into this bedroom that I have had since I was a teenager. It is like this parallel universe, because one minute I am on the red carpet and then the next I am hiding out in this room I have had since I was 15.
Florence Welch
You should have high expectations for yourself and others should come second.
Florence Welch
Having a soul, they say, is like taking sadness and turning it into something beautiful.
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'm obsessed with choirs, and always have been, because of that sense of overwhelming vocals.
Florence Welch
I quite like the drama of an encore. I think an encore is for those artists who are inclined to do dramatic gestures, and I certainly would say I am inclined towards them.
Florence Welch
I love that sense of release as you throw yourself into the crowd as hundreds of arms are carrying you.
Florence Welch
I've just never been a tracksuit-wearer.
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 saw 'The Artist.' It's really beautiful and it's all done to the letter with all the silent film techniques. The costumes were amazing and the dog is so good.
Florence Welch
You live and you learn.
Florence Welch
I love performing outside because it's as if the heavens are open and the elements become part of the stage show as well - you know, the wind and the rain and the thunder. It's almost as if there's a sense of invocation in performance.
Florence Welch
I try to maintain a healthy dose of daydreaming, to remain sane.
Florence Welch
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.
