Quote

For me, ‘Dog Days’ symbolizes apocalyptic euphoria, chaotic freedom and running really, really fast with your eyes closed.

What I really like seeing from the stage is people having their own moments, when people are doing some performance of their own.
Florence Welch
Image
I wish to remain nameless And live without shame 'Cause what's in a name, Oh I still remain the same

Maybe in music you're making an auditory environment and maybe you change your environment around you to suit your own way.

When you're heartbroken, you're at your most creative - you have to channel all your energies into something else to not think about it. Contentment is a creativity killer, but don't worry - I'm very capable of making myself discontented.
Florence Welch
Image
I think I just have a problem generally in life of wanting more of everything - more emotion, more drama, more glitz.

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'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.

Hands up if you’re ready to do something you’ll regret this weekend. Go forth! You have my blessing.

I love that sense of release as you throw yourself into the crowd as hundreds of arms are carrying you.

You live and you learn.

Touring, and being in a band, it's almost like the other stuff, the other parts of life, get put on hold.

Love is horrible. I mean, when you're in love, it's like a sickness. Such madness.
Florence Welch
Image
The aesthetic came along the way, I think - just through experimenting, and going on tour, and trying stuff out on stage, having fun with it, and not taking it too seriously. If I had a ballgown at home, I'd wear it onstage. If I found something in a charity shop, I'd wear it. That's where it grew from - just wanting to play dress-up.

Having a soul, they say, is like taking sadness and turning it into something beautiful.

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

Sometimes I wish for falling Wish for the release Wish for falling through the air To give me some relief Because falling's not the problem When I'm falling I'm in peace It's only when I hit the ground It causes all the grief

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.

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'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.

Bono told me how to dance in high heels and he also told me about U2's Glastonbury performance and how everything that could have possibly gone wrong went wrong, including him ripping his trousers on stage. I think he was lunging and his trousers ripped! He was telling me how he had to find a new way of performing that didn't involve moving.
