Florence and the Machine

Divno, baš sam pre neki dan gledao ceo ovaj koncert, odličan je

Naišao sam na intervju kojim sam oduševljen! Priča o nastanku i značenju svake pesme sa drugog albuma. Jedini problem je što je dosta tiha kad priča (a još je i britanski engleski, pa sam u jednom trenutku razumeo ‚‚faded colours'' umesto Frida Kalo sreća pa sam znao od ranije da je u pitanju Frida Kalo), a pesme su dosta glasne, pa sam stalno držao ruku na zvučniku.

Blinding

Seems that I have been held in some dreaming state
I twist in the waking world, never quite awake
No kiss, no gentle word could wake me from this slumber
Until I realize that it was you who held me under

Felt it in my fist, in my feet, in the hollows of my eyelids
Shaking through my skull, through my spine
And down through my ribs

No more dreaming of the dead as if death itself was undone
No more crawling like a crow for a boy, for a body in the garden
No more dreaming like a girl so in love, so in love
No more dreaming like a girl so in love, so in love
No more dreaming like a girl so in love with the wrong world

And I could hear the thunder and see the lightning crack
And all around the world was waking, I never could go back
'Cause all the walls of dreaming, they were torn right open
And finally it seemed that the spell was broken

And all my bones began to shake, my eyes flew open
And all my bones began to shake, my eyes flew open

No more dreaming of the dead as if death itself was undone
No more crawling like a crow for a boy, for a body in the garden
No more dreaming like a girl so in love, so in love
No more dreaming like a girl so in love, so in love
No more dreaming like a girl so in love with the wrong world

Someone's stitching up the circuit boards
Someone's slipping through the hidden door
Someone's stitching up the circuit board

No more dreaming of the dead as if death itself was undone
No more crawling like a crow for a boy, for a body in the garden
No more dreaming like a girl so in love, so in love
No more dreaming like a girl so in love, so in love
No more dreaming like a girl so in love with the wrong world

Someone's stitching up the circuit boards
Someone's slipping through the hidden door
Someone's stitching up your circuit board
Someone's slipping through the hidden door

Bird song


Well, I didn't tell anyone but a bird flew by
Saw what I'd done and set up a nest outside
And he sang about what I'd become

He sang so loud, sang so clear
I was afraid all the neighbors would hear
So I invited him in just to reason with him
I promised I wouldn't do it again

But he sang louder and louder inside the house
And now I couldn't get him out
So I trapped him under a cardboard box
And stood on it to make him stop

I picked up the bird and above the dim I said
"That's the last song you'll ever sing"
Held him down, broke his neck
Taught him a lesson he wouldn't forget

But in my dreams began to creep
That old familiar tweet, tweet, tweet

I opened my mouth to scream and shout
I waved my arms and flapped about
But I couldn't scream and I couldn't shout
Couldn't scream and I couldn't shout

I opened my mouth to scream and shout
I waved my arms and flapped about
But I couldn't scream I couldn't shout
The song was coming from my mouth

From my mouth
From my mouth
From my mouth

From my mouth
From my mouth
From my mouth
From my mouth

From my mouth
From my mouth
From my mouth
From my mouth

From my mouth
From my mouth
From my mouth
From my mouth




A evo je i uživo Razvalila je na kraju, ostao sam bez daha i iskolačenih očiju ćuteći i slušajući je pažljivo. Kraljica! Još kad je vidim kako na početku ‚‚vodi ljubav'' sa bubjevima!

Novi spot za pesmu..

Lover To Lover

I've been losin' sleep,
I've been keepin' myself awake,
I've been wandering the streets,
For days and days and days,

Oh if I'm road to road,
Bed to bed,
Lover to lover,
And black to red,

But I believe,
I believe

There's no salvation for me now,
No space among the clouds,
And I've seen that I'm heading down,
But that's alright,
That's alright,
That's alright..
That's alright..

And I've been taking chances,
I've been setting myself up for the fall,
I've been keeping secrets,
From my heart and from and from my soul.

Going from road to road,
Bed to bed,
Lover to lover,
Black to red,

But I believe,
I believe
There's no salvation for me now,
No space among the clouds,
And I've seen that I'm heading down,
But that's alright,

That's alright,
That's alright!
That's alright!

Road to road,
Bed to bed,
And lover to lover,
And black to red,
And road to road,
Bed to bed,
And lover to lover!

No space among the clouds…
And I feel I'm heading down…
But that's alright,
That's alright,
That's alright!
That's alright!
That's alright!
That's alright!

Road to road!
Bed to bed!
And lover to lover!
And black to red!
And road to road
bed to bed!
Lover to lover
To lover to lover
To lover to lover
To lover to lover
To lover to lover
To lover to lover…

No salvation for me now…
No salvation for me now…
No salvation for me now…
No salvation for me now…

Falling

I've fallen out of favour
And I've fallen from grace
Fallen out of trees
And I've fallen on my face
Fallen out of taxis
Out of windows too
Fell in your opinion
When I fell in love with you

Oh-ooh

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

Oh-ooh

This is a song for a scribbled out name
And my love keeps writing again and again
This is a song for a scribbled out name
And my love keeps writing again and again
And again

I'll dance myself up
Drunk myself down
Find people to love
Love people too drunk
I'm not scared to jump
I'm not scared to fall
If there was nowhere to land
I woudn't be scared
At all
At all
At all
At all
All

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

Ovo je nova pesma Florence + the Machine, koja je snimljena za film The Great Gatsby. Zove se: Over the Love.

Uživaj, Still.




Ever since I was a child
I've turned it over in my mind
I sang by the piano
Tore my yellow dress and
Cried and cried and cried

And I don't want to see what I've seen
To undo what has been done
Turn off all the lights
Let the morning come, come

Now there's green light in my eyes
And my lover on my mind
And I sing from the piano
Tear my yellow dress and
Cry and cry and cry
Over the love of you

On this champagne-drunken home
Against the current of gold
Everybody see I love him
'Cause it's the feeling that you get
When the afternoon is set
On the bridge into the city

I don't want to see what I've seen
To undo what has been done
Turn off all the lights
Let the morning come

There's green light in my eyes
And my lover on my mind
And I sing from the piano
Tear my yellow dress and
Cry and cry and cry

'Cause your're a hard soul to save
With an ocean in the way
But I'll get around it
'Cause your’re a hard soul to save
With an ocean in the way
But I'll get around it

Now there's green light in my eyes
And my lover on my mind
And I sing from the piano
Tear my yellow dress and
Cry and cry and cry
Over the love of you

Cry and cry and cry
Over the love of you
(I can see the green light
I can see it in your eyes)
Cry and cry and cry
Over the love of you

I can see the green light
I can see it in your eyes

Addicted to love


The lights are on, but you're not home
Your mind is not your own
Your heart sweats, your body shakes
Another kiss is what it takes

You can't sleep, you can't eat
There's no doubt, you're in deep
Your throat is tight, you can't breathe
Another kiss is all you need

Whoa, you like to think that you're immune to the stuff, oh Yeah
It's closer to the truth to say you can't get enough,
You know you're gonna have to face it, you're addicted to love

You see the signs, but you can't read
You're running at a different speed
Your heart beats in double time
Another kiss and you'll be mine,

A one-track mind, you can't be saved
Oblivion is all you crave
If there's some left, left for you
And you don't mind if you do

Whoa, you like to think that you're immune to the stuff, oh Yeah
It's closer to the truth to say you can't get enough,
You know you're gonna have to face it, you're addicted to love

Might as well face it, you're addicted to love
Might as well face it, you're addicted to love
Might as well face it, you're addicted to love
Might as well face it, you're addicted to love

Your lights are on, but you're not home
Your will is not your own
Your heart sweats your teeth grind
Another kiss and you'll be mine

Whoa, you like to think that you're immune to the stuff, oh Yeah
It's closer to the truth to say you can't get enough,
You know you're gonna have to face it, you're addicted to love

Might as well face it, you're addicted to love
Might as well face it, you're addicted to love
Might as well face it, you're addicted to love
Might as well face it, you're addicted to love
Might as well face it, you're addicted to love
Might as well face it, you're addicted to love
Might as well face it, you're addicted to love
Might as well face it, you're addicted to love

Pokrenuo sam na fejsbuku grupu i stranicu za Florens kako bi se fanovi skupili i kako bismo doveli Florens u Srbiju.

Šta mi savetujete, da li je bolje da se koncentrišem na grupu ili na stranicu (fan page)? Ne znam šta je plodonosnije, stran mi je način funkcionisanja tih stvari. A ne bih da pola fanova bude u grupi, a pola na stranici, pa da izgleda da nas je manje nego što jeste.

https://www.facebook.com/FlorenceAndTheMachineSerbia

https://www.facebook.com/groups/256755377796920/

Upravo sam sviđovala stranu i poslala zahtev za članstvo u grupi.
Ne znam da te posavetujem, nisam baš sigurna, ali mislim da je stranica praktičnija. Moje prijateljice, koje se bave prodajom nakita putem Facebook-a, koriste stranice, a ne grupe... Valjda zato što je tako praktičnije.

Kiss With A Fist

You hit me once
I hit you back
You gave a kick
I gave a slap
You smashed a plate
Over my head
Then I set fire to our bed

You hit me once
I hit you back
You gave a kick
I gave a slap
You smashed a plate
Over my head
Then I set fire to our bed

My black eye casts no shadow
Your red eye sees no pain
Your slaps don't stick
Your kicks don't hit
So we remain the same
Blood sticks, sweat drips
Break the lock if it don't fit
A kick in the teeth is good for some
A kiss with a fist is better than none
A-woah a kiss with a fist is better than none

Broke your jaw once before
Spilt your blood upon the floor
You broke my leg in return
So let's sit back and watch the bed burn
Well love sticks sweat drips
Break the lock if it don't fit
A kick in the teeth is good for some
A kiss with a fist is better than none
A-woah a kiss woth a fist is better than none

You hit me once
I hit you back
You gave a kick
I gave a slap
You smashed a plate over my head
Then I set fire to our bed

You hit me once
I hit you back
You gave a kick
I gave a slap
You smashed a plate over my head
Then I set fire to our bed

Rabbit Heart (Raise It Up)


The looking glass, so shiny and new
How quickly the glamour fades
I start spinning, slipping out of time
Was that the wrong pill to take? (Raise it up)

You made a deal, and now it seems you have to offer up
(Raise it up, raise it up)

Here I am, a rabbit-hearted girl
Frozen in the headlights
It seems I've made the final sacrifice

We raise it up

This is a gift, it comes with a price
Who is the lamb and who is the knife?
Midas is king and he holds me so tight
And turns me to gold in the sunlight

I look around, but I can't find you (raise it up)
If only I could see your face (raise it up)
Instead of rushing towards the skyline (raise it up)
I wish that I could just be brave

I must become a lion-hearted girl
Ready for a fight
Before I make the final sacrifice

We raise it up

This is a gift, it comes with a price
Who is the lamb and who is the knife?
Midas is king and he holds me so tight
And turns me to gold in the sunlight

Raise it up, raise it up
Raise it up, raise it up

And in the spring I shed my skin
And it blows away with the changing wind
The waters turn from blue to red
As towards the sky I offer it

This is a gift, it comes with a price
Who is the lamb and who is the knife?
Midas is king and he holds me so tight
And turns me to gold in the sunlight

This is a gift, it comes with a price
Who is the lamb and who is the knife?
Midas is king and he holds me so tight
And turns me to gold in the sunlight

This is a gift, it comes with a price
Who is the lamb and who is the knife?
Midas is king and he holds me so tight
And turns me to gold in the sunlight

This is a gift

Iako ovo u najboljem slučaju zvuči kao jedno od boljih izvođenja ove pesme na karaokama, nije mi se svidelo. Ali mi se svidelo to što je baš ona imitirala Florence i što je u jednoj tako gledanoj emisiji pomenuta Florence. Ako je bar 10 osoba posle emisije otkrilo Florence, ja sam zadovoljan.

Floreeeeeeens! Ne zna se još kad izlazi novi album, ali je poznato da je pri kraju

Ovo je objavljeno juče, a ja sam bio 301. koji je pogledao ovaj video.

Ne liči mi baš na nju, ali svejedno sam doživeo moždani orgazam!

Prva pesmaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!

What Kind Of Man


I was on a heavy tip
Tryna cross a canyon with a broken limb
You were on the other side
Like always, wondering what to do with life
I already had a sip
So I'd reasoned I was drunk enough to deal with it
You were on the other side
Like always, you could never make your mind

And with one kiss
You inspired a fire of devotion
That lasted 20 years
What kind of man loves like this

To let me dangle at a cruel angle
Oh my feet don't touch the floor
Sometimes you're half in and then you're half out
But never close the door

What kind of man loves like this
What kind of man
What kind of man loves like this
What kind of man

You're a holy fool all coloured blue
Red feet upon the floor
You do such damage, how do you manage?
Tryna crawl in back for more

And with one kiss
You inspired a fire of devotion
That lasted 20 years
What kind of man loves like this

What kind of man loves like this
What kind of man
What kind of man loves like this
What kind of man

But I can't beat you
Cause I'm still with you
Oh mercy I implore
How do you do it
I think I'm through it
Then I'm back against the wall

What kind of man loves like this
What kind of man
What kind of man loves like this
What kind of man

What kind of man loves like this
What kind of man
What kind of man loves like this
What kind of man

How big, how blue, how beautiful


Between a crucifix and the Hollywood sign
We decided to get hurt
Now there's a few things we have to burn
Set our hearts ablaze, and every city was a gift
And every skyline was like a kiss upon the lips
And I was making you a wish
And every skyline
How big, how blue, how beautiful
How big, how blue, how beautiful
And meanwhile a man was falling from space
And every day I wore your face
Like an atmosphere around me
Set a life inside of me
And meanwhile a man was falling from space
As he hit the earth I left this place
Let the atmosphere surround me
Set a life inside of me
What are we gonna do?
We opened the door, now it's all coming through
Till we see it too
We opened our eyes and its changing the view
Oh, what are we gonna do?
We opened the door, now its all coming through
How big, how blue, how
How big, how blue, how...
And every city was a gift
And every skyline was like a kiss upon the lips
And I was making you a wish
And every skyline
And meanwhile a man was falling from space
And every day I wore your face
Like an atmosphere around me
Half the otherside of me
What are we gonna do?
We opened the door, now it's all coming through
Till we see it too
We opened our eyes and it's changing the view
Oh, what are we gonna do?
We opened the door, now it's all coming through
How big, how blue, how beautiful
How big, how blue, how beautiful
How big, how blue, how beautiful
How big, how blue, how...
So much time on the other side
Waiting for you to wake up
So much time on the other side
Waiting for you to wake up
Maybe I'll see you in another life
But this one wasn't enough
So much time on the other side
How big, how blue, how beautiful
How big, how blue, how...



Više nego savršeno!

Florence je izbacila još jednu novu pesmu.

Ship to Wreck


Don't touch the sleeping pills, they mess with my head,
Dredging the Great White Sharks, swimming in the bed,
And here comes a Killer Whale, to sing me to sleep,
Thrashing the covers off, it has me by it's teeth.

And oh my love remind me, what was it that I said?
I can't help but pull the earth around me, to make my bed
And oh my love remind me, what was it that I did?
Did I drink too much?
Am I losing touch?
Did I build this ship to wreck?

To wreck, to wreck, to wreck,
Did I build this ship to wreck?

What's with the long face? Do you want more?
Thousands of red-eyed mice, scratching at the door,
Don't let the curtain catch you, cause you've been here before,
The chair is an island darling, you can't touch the floor,

And oh my love remind me, what was it that I said?
I can't help but pull the earth around me, to make my bed
And oh my love remind me, what was it that I did?
Did I drink too much?
Am I losing touch?
Did I build this ship to wreck?

To wreck, to wreck, to wreck,
Did I build this ship to wreck?

And good God, under starry skies we are lost,
And into the breach we got tossed,
And the water's coming in fast!

And oh my love remind me, what was it that I said?
I can't help but pull the earth around me, to make my bed
And oh my love remind me, what was it that I did?
Did I drink too much?
Am I losing touch?
Did I build this ship to wreck?

To wreck, to wreck, to wreck,
Did I build this ship to wreck?

To wreck, to wreck, to wreck,
Did I build this ship to wreck?



It takes 3 to make it right.

Poet, stavio sam ti u post video koji radi. A pri tom je i spot.

Ovo je pesma koju sam najosetio sa novog albuma (do sad). I došla je u savršenom trenutku za mene, pa moram da je postavim, da pišem malo o njoj.

Did I drink too much?
Am I losing touch?
Did I build this ship to wreck?

To wreck, to wreck, to wreck,
Did I build this ship to wreck?

I opet urlam u sebi (ne ispuštajući ton) dok pevam s njom, jer uvek želim da čujem nju, ne sebe.

Pure Feeling


Blinded by the glare
I was moving like I didn't care
But it was more than I could bear
You know I hoped I'd see you there

Staring out the window
I could see into the soul of every passer by
So many lives
So many pairs of eyes

A pure feeling
I'm invisible and magical
If only for a moment
A pure feeling
I'm scared to control it

Stretching out my arms
I let it comfort me
Our bodies moving in the dark
It takes the pain from me
And then I am in love
With everyone I see
I keep on moving in the spaces where you used to be

And the illusion starts to tear
Let everybody stand and stare
Cause now I have no fear
I knew that this would end in tears

Staring out the window
I could see into the soul of every passer by
So many lives
So many pairs of eyes

A pure feeling
I'm invisible and magical
If only for a moment
A pure feeling
I'm scared to control it

Stretching out my arms
I let it comfort me
Our bodies moving in the dark
It takes the pain from me
And then I am in love
With everyone I see
I keep on moving in the spaces where you used to be

Those strangers carry me
I'm lost; they're finding me
I'm gone; they're there with me
But it's not over
The spaces in between
They keep you far from me
The emptiness; it means it's not over

Stretching out my arms
I let it comfort me
Our bodies moving in the dark
It takes the pain from me
And then I am in love
With everyone I see
I keep on moving in the spaces where you used to be

Stretching out my arms
I let it comfort me
Our bodies moving in the dark
It takes the pain from me
And then I am in love
With everyone I see
I keep on moving in the spaces where you used to be




Msk, hvala ti što si me podsetila na SoundCloud Mnogo sam želeo da okačim ovu pesmu, ali na Jutjubu je nije bilo.

Sinoć sam je čuo prvi put i potpuno sam opijen.  

Huh, koliko se živciram što Florens nema na netu, toliko mi je drago što uspeva da zaradi pored intrenetske mafije. A opet mi se postavlja ovde. Ja sam uhvatio album na torentu, pa sam se opet zaljubio, a plašio sam se baš da me ne razočara. Divna je i dalje, iako malo liči na sebe. Ali to je taj gls, taj osećaj - dovoljno! Za sada su me osvojile pesme ‚‚Pure Feeling", ‚‚Ship to Wreak", What kind of Man"‚ ‚‚Queen Of Peace", ‚‚Various Storms & Saints", ‚‚Delilah" i ‚‚Make Up Your Mind". I ostale mi se dopadaju, osim ‚‚Third Eye". I oduševljen sam što ima 18 novih pesama.

Queen Of Peace


Oh, the king
Gone mad within his suffering
Called out for relief
Someone cure him of his grief

His only son
Cut down, but the battle won
Oh, what is it worth
When all that's left is hurt?

Like the stars chase the sun
Over the glowing hill, I will conquer
Blood is running deep
Some things never sleep

Suddenly I'm overcome
Dissolving like the setting sun
Like a boat into oblivion
Cause you're driving me away
Now you have me on the run
The damage is already done
Come on, is this what you want?
Cause you're driving me away

Oh, the queen of peace
Always does her best to please
Is it any use?
Somebody's gotta lose

Like a long scream
Out there, always echoing
Oh, what is it worth?
All that's left is hurt

Like the stars chase the sun
Over the glowing hill, I will conquer
Blood is running deep
Some things never sleep

Suddenly I'm overcome
Dissolving like the setting sun
Like a boat into oblivion
Cause you're driving me away
Now you have me on the run
The damage is already done
Come on, is this what you want?
Cause you're driving me away

And my love is no good
Against the fortress that it made of you
Blood is running deep
Sorrow that you keep

Suddenly I'm overcome
Dissolving like the setting sun
Like a boat into oblivion
Cause you're driving me away
Now you have me on the run
The damage is already done
Come on, is this what you want?
Cause you're driving me away




Konačno, konačno, konačno nešto da procuri! (i da ostane ceo dan!) Ova pesma me potresa odnekle daleko i odnekle iznutra. Gura me, obara, lakta! Ova pesma mi radi samo ono što su mogle da mi urade njene pesme!

Various Storms & Saints


And the air was full
Of various storms and saints
Praying in the street
As the banks began to break
And I'm in the throes of it
Somewhere in the belly of the beast
But you took your toll on me
So I gave myself over willingly
You got a hold on me
And I don't know how I don't just stand outside and scream
I am teaching myself how to be free

The monument of a memory
You tear it down in your head
Don't make the mountain your enemy
Get out, get up there instead
You saw the stars out in front of you
Too tempting not to touch
But even though it shocked you
Something's electric in your blood

And people just untie themselves
Uncurling lifelines
If you could just forgive yourself

But still you stumble, feet give way
Outside the world seems a violent place
But you had to have him, and so you did
Some things you let go in order to live
While all around you, the buildings sway
You sing it out loud, "who made us this way?"
I know you're bleeding, but you'll be okay
Hold on to your heart, you'll keep it safe
Hold on to your heart, don't give it away

You'll find a rooftop to sing from
Or find a hallway to dance
You don't need no edge to cling from
Your heart is there, it's in your hands
I know it seems like forever
I know it seems like an age
But one day this will be over
I swear it's not so far away

And people just untie themselves
Uncurling lifelines
If you could just forgive yourself

But still you stumble, feet give way
Outside the world seems a violent place
But you had to have him, and so you did
Some things you let go in order to live
While all around you, the buildings sway
You sing it out loud, "who made us this way?"
I know you're bleeding, but you'll be okay
Hold on to your heart, you'll keep it safe
Hold on to your heart





Morao sam ovo da postavim. Ne mogu da čekam Jutjub!

Evo i dodatak, to ima na Jutjubu. -.-

Mother


Oh Lord, won't you leave me
Leave me on my knees?
Cause I belong to the ground now
And it belongs to me
And oh Lord, won't you leave me
Leave me just like this?
Cause I belong to the ground now
I want no more than this

How I long for the autumn
The sun keeps burning deep
Every stone in this city keeps reminding me
Can you protect me from what I want?
The love I let in, it left me so lost

Mother, make me
Make me a big tall tree
So I can shed my leaves and let it blow through me
Mother, make me
Make me a big grey cloud
So I can rain on you things I can't say out loud

All these couples are kissing
And I can't stand the heat
I lost my shoes and left the party
I wander in the street

I put my feet into the fountain
The statues' all asleep
No use wishing on the water
It grants you no relief

Mother, make me
Make me a bird of prey
So I can rise above this, let it fall away
Mother, make me
Make me a song so sweet
Heaven trembles, fallen at our feet

Oh Lord, won't you leave me
Leave me on my knees?
Cause I belong to the ground now
And it belongs to me
And oh Lord, won't you leave me
Leave me just like this?
Cause I belong to the ground now
I want no more than this

Oh Lord, won't you leave me
Leave me on my knees?
Cause I belong to the ground now
And it belongs to me
And oh Lord, won't you leave me
Leave me just like this?
Cause I belong to the ground now
I want no more than this




Na boldovane delove bukvalno urlam!
