Quote

The stage is a place where I can be wholly myself. Even though you're in front of people almost to be judged, it is a place without judgement.

You should have high expectations for yourself and others should come second.

Image
I try to maintain a healthy dose of daydreaming, to remain sane.

Image
I think an encore is perfectly acceptable, but I find it so weird when people do two or three.
Florence Welch
Image
I wish to remain nameless And live without shame 'Cause what's in a name, Oh I still remain the same

You can forget anything, and actually being a part of a crowd, of a group, can itself be freeing.

I spent my 16th birthday high as a kite, jumping out of a tree topless in my local park just because it felt amazing hitting the ground.

I can’t worry too much about the everyday things. Otherwise I’d lose touch with my own world, that helps me as an artist, but it’s frustrating for the people around me. I’m vaguely functional, but there’s always something slightly off.

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.

I started off singing in church as a child. The sound of voices coming together, that was my first moment of touching something outside of myself.

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.

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

I'm down to bleach my eyebrows again. I tell you what, though - that didn't go down well with my boyfriend. Girls love it. Guys, not so into it.

What I really like seeing from the stage is people having their own moments, when people are doing some performance of their own.

I love Lady Gaga and I love Katy Perry and R&B and rap music... I love big, American pop music.

The first album, for better or for worse, was done over from the ages of 17-22, with a couple of different producers. Some of it was recorded in an old swimming pool, some of it was recorded in a synagogue - it kind of was all over the place.

I'm one of those people that is up for most things. When I was offered to sing at the Oscars I was like, 'Yeah, I want to know what that's like!' I'm always curious to know what things are like - as long as you're not compromising who you are.

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.

It was a complete dream to work with David LaChapelle. I collected his books as a teenager, and I fantasised that he would direct the video for 'Spectrum' from the moment the song was written. I still can't believe it actually happened, and I'm completely overjoyed that he felt such a connection with the song.

I'm quite glad I never learned to play the guitar, because I think I'd write songs that were more classically structured. As it is, I've had to create my own way of writing, which isn't typical. Everything's a big crescendo.

Going to parties usually makes me feel depressed, just because I have such social fear after meeting people.
