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

When something really hits me, it makes me want to either jump off something really high or lie down and be buried. I want people to get hit and caught by my music.

On stage, you can use your emotions. It's the place where you can channel them. They have a purpose.
Florence Welch
Image
Touring, and being in a band, it's almost like the other stuff, the other parts of life, get put on hold.
Florence Welch
Image
Having a soul, they say, is like taking sadness and turning it into something beautiful.
Florence Welch
Image
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
Image
I definitely have a real self-destructive streak.
Florence Welch
Image
I can't ever seem to shake the feeling that when things are really good it essentially means that things are going to go really bad. When I feel calm and settled, there is always an underlying feeling of impending doom... I don't think that it's healthy.

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.

At the beginning of my career I was going through a really weird phase of dressing in boys clothes. I would only wear one American Apparel T-shirt and shorts and brogues the whole year round. Not the same T-shirt, obviously, but one style of American Apparel T-shirt. I think I was going through a tomboy stage.

I think I should get a bigger between-the-song persona, so then I'm not wandering around the stage like some mad old auntie that's saying hello to people and falling over.

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 look really odd in jeans and a hoodie - it doesn't feel or seem right.
Florence Welch
Image
I get in fights with my sister all the time. She comes on the road with me and we fight - like sisters do.
Florence Welch
Image
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.

Love is horrible. I mean, when you're in love, it's like a sickness. Such madness.

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

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

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.

I'm a choir girl gone horribly, desperately wrong.
