More quotes by Florence Welch
My visual landscape as a child was the inside of a lot of these old churches. And the Baroque drama of the things was what I was first engaging with artwise. I'm much more attracted to the aesthetic of religious iconography than the actual religious side. The passion and the blood and the violence and the gaudy side of it I find really fascinating.
Florence Welch
I don't want your future, I don't need your past. One bright moment Is all I ask.
Florence Welch
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.
Florence Welch
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.
Florence Welch
You should have high expectations for yourself and others should come second.
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.

I used to dress like an eight-year-old boy. Traveling has inspired me to be more experimental.
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.

You know, people always ask, 'What are you like offstage?' And I always say, 'Well, I'm completely normal and mellow.'
Florence Welch
Going to parties usually makes me feel depressed, just because I have such social fear after meeting people.
Florence Welch
For me, ‘Dog Days’ symbolizes apocalyptic euphoria, chaotic freedom and running really, really fast with your eyes closed.
Florence Welch
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.
Florence Welch
Hands up if you’re ready to do something you’ll regret this weekend. Go forth! You have my blessing.
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
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.

You live and you learn.
Florence Welch
My room is like an antique shop, full of junk, and weird stuff. There's a big sword in there. And a taxidermy bird, and a couple of birdcages. And a lot of newspaper cuttings. I used to have a weird thing about cutting out morbid headlines from newspapers, and collecting them. I was fascinated with drowning, which is kind of strange.

Look, if Givenchy is going to lend you a dress, I'm not going to turn it down. I would wear that dress to just go out and buy a pint of milk if they would lend it to me.

I'm pretty obsessed with Stevie Nicks from her style to her voice. I like watching her on YouTube and her old performances, the way she moves and everything.
