the wind and rain... her dress whipping 'round... she sinks into her rhythm and is buoyed by her heart... floating on her lyrics like some modern banshee howling out her hopes and despair...
Damn that shit was tight... Was blessed with this piece on the Double CD she made available to the fan club... Shipped all the way from the UK to Cali! Man, play this shit loud on a rainy day mashin' down the freeway... takes u to another world.
I like this version of the song so much more than even the official video for it. The passion singing it during this concert is so much higher than in the official video. I don't think I've ever said that about a live performance before.
This concert must have been the best concert conceived. They turned what could have been the worst conditions for a concert into a stunning overwhelming outpour of wonder. Her dress, the stage, and everything really suites the weather. They enhance each other! Also THis song is great, because it starts off so soft and detached, but then at the climax it becomes... again... an overwhelming outpour of wonder.
The best ABOUT live performing ... is when the singer FEELS the song... she has so much passion for music... her voice is pure perfection !!! I LOVE HER !!!
This was the song that started the love for me. Made me ball the first time. Not from sadnes but purly from that voice. The notes it she just rips me apart in the best way. Same exact effect so many years later. Id kill to go back in time to see this.
There's no weather too bad or stormy enough to beat Florence, it even underlines her performance dramatically, like she summoned a storm with her voice! Damn powerful performance!
i noticed recently that i dance exactly like her. whether this is an awesome coincidence or after so much time watching her videos i subconsciously mimic her i can't tell
… I was a heavy heart to carry My beloved was weighed down My arms around his neck My fingers laced a crown … I was a heavy heart to carry My feet dragged across the ground And he took me to the river Where he slowly let me drown … My love has concrete feet My love's an iron ball Wrapped around your ankles Over the waterfall … I'm so heavy Heavy, heavy in your arms I'm so heavy Heavy, heavy in your arms … And is it worth the wait All this killing time? Are you strong enough to stand? Protecting both your heart and mine … Who is the betrayer? Who's the killer in the crowd? The one who creeps in corridors And doesn't make a sound … My love has concrete feet My love's an iron ball Wrapped around your ankles Over the waterfall … My love has concrete feet My love's an iron ball Wrapped around your ankles Over the waterfall … I'm so heavy Heavy, heavy in your arms I'm so heavy Heavy, so heavy in your arms … This will be my last confession I love you never felt like any blessing Whisper it is like it's a secret Only to condemn the one who hears it With a heavy heart … Heavy, heavy, I'm so heavy in your arms Heavy, heavy, I'm so heavy in your arms Heavy, heavy, I'm so heavy in your arms Heavy, heavy, I'm so heavy in your arms … I was a heavy heart to carry My beloved was weighed down My arms around his neck My fingers laced a crown … I was a heavy heart to carry But he never let me down When he held me in his arms My feet never touched the ground … I'm so heavy Heavy in your arms Heavy I'm so heavy in your arms...
Florence....this should be the version on your CD and Spotify. Not the over produced recording you did in the studio. This has 1,000,000 times more heart and soul.
The way the wind whips at her hair and dress, it's almost like she conjured the storm to make her performance that much more beautiful and powerful. As if this song needed any help.
The weather made this dramatically more intense. Amazing.
She summoned the storm
Is she even real? Is this performance even real? Her vocals? Her dress? The rain? My hearing?
GOOSEBUMPS
I love how florence can control the weather just to make a perfect presentation. what a godess
The perfect weather for this perfect song
i can't get over the raw emotion in how she performed this song. just stunning
this is so powerful. this song, her voice, the weather... amazing.
Right!? I have such chills right now!
Total chills right now watching this......YES, her voice, the rain, her dress in the wind........WOW
Love her emotion
What a weekend . Rained for most of it. Still one of the best festivals ever.
the wind and rain... her dress whipping 'round... she sinks into her rhythm and is buoyed by her heart... floating on her lyrics like some modern banshee howling out her hopes and despair...
Epic performance!
Wow this is one of best onstage performances 😮 I have seen, 12yrs in 2023 and it still hits home.
This song is haunting and truly poetic. You must think to understand it. Compelling as are most of her songs. She has a beautiful voice.
She is absolutely epic live. Not many artists manage to put up such amazing performances. The strength of her voice blew me away.
One of the best performances she ever did, in the weather and vocals to match.
At the end of 2019, I could say, Florence, you’re my artist of the decade. I love you. ❤️
THIS is a live performance. NO DOUBT ABOUT IT. She doesn't need any sort of playback. Absolutely flawless.
i love how she is all quiet when she speaks and then she starts to sing and she just blows everyone away. Love you Florence! :)
I'm a singer and a performer and I have NEVER heard someone belt notes like that live. Sing it girl!!!!!!
Damn that shit was tight... Was blessed with this piece on the Double CD she made available to the fan club... Shipped all the way from the UK to Cali! Man, play this shit loud on a rainy day mashin' down the freeway... takes u to another world.
The wind + the rain + this song just look like this is the end of the world or something.
Everything about this is beautiful.
I like this version of the song so much more than even the official video for it. The passion singing it during this concert is so much higher than in the official video. I don't think I've ever said that about a live performance before.
What a stunning creature! You wouldn't have even known the weather was that crappy based on the way she performed.
There will never be such a great mic like this again, _damn_.
I was at this, she was AMAZING!! And she loved the rain :)
Grace Slick loves her and calls her an artist of REAL music.
Florence said Grace is a primary influence on her singing.

the storm just makes it that much more epic
Watching her sing live on youtube gave me chills
I wonder what its like to ACTUALLY see her live
I might explode 0__0

I love this video cause the wind makes her look like this goddess and it adds so much to the song!
this is such a powerful song and the setting with the crowd rain and win and her movements makes it so much more of an amazing song

I was listening to this and I wasn't looking at the screen, and I thought it was a music video because her voice is just so perfect.
I was there, dog days are over was fucking immense. She was the best live performance I seen the whole weekend hands down.
Yeah the rain makes everything more magical
this is one of the most perfect video's i've ever seen on youtube. chills.
… I was a heavy heart to carry
My beloved was weighed down
My arms around his neck
My fingers laced a crown
… I was a heavy heart to carry
My feet dragged across the ground
And he took me to the river
Where he slowly let me drown
… My love has concrete feet
My love's an iron ball
Wrapped around your ankles
Over the waterfall
… I'm so heavy
Heavy, heavy in your arms
I'm so heavy
Heavy, heavy in your arms
… And is it worth the wait
All this killing time?
Are you strong enough to stand?
Protecting both your heart and mine
… Who is the betrayer?
Who's the killer in the crowd?
The one who creeps in corridors
And doesn't make a sound
… My love has concrete feet
My love's an iron ball
Wrapped around your ankles
Over the waterfall
… My love has concrete feet
My love's an iron ball
Wrapped around your ankles
Over the waterfall
… I'm so heavy
Heavy, heavy in your arms
I'm so heavy
Heavy, so heavy in your arms
… This will be my last confession
I love you never felt like any blessing
Whisper it is like it's a secret
Only to condemn the one who hears it
With a heavy heart
… Heavy, heavy, I'm so heavy in your arms
Heavy, heavy, I'm so heavy in your arms
Heavy, heavy, I'm so heavy in your arms
Heavy, heavy, I'm so heavy in your arms
… I was a heavy heart to carry
My beloved was weighed down
My arms around his neck
My fingers laced a crown
… I was a heavy heart to carry
But he never let me down
When he held me in his arms
My feet never touched the ground
… I'm so heavy
Heavy in your arms
Heavy
I'm so heavy in your arms...
OH MY HOLY CRAP JUST WOW! that was f-ing amazing
omg the rain
The fact that people stayed out in the rain shows how awesome she is.

HER VOICE OMFG😍 GODDAMN
JESUS CHRIST flawless
Nature moves with her song!
Amazing!
I love her voice so much

Gotta say that Costa Rica needs this amazing voice!!!
the fact that it's raining just makes it better, and that's hard to do.
Does anybody know who designed this dress? It's simply gorgeous.
i cry in joy to this song!
wow her voice is seriously amazing!
Florence....this should be the version on your CD and Spotify. Not the over produced recording you did in the studio. This has 1,000,000 times more heart and soul.
