Kella The Killjoy are you kidding? shes SO popular! she is headlining massive festivals this summer and her own shows are selling out on the days they go on sale. shes insanely popular. she worked her way up to the top and she deserves being with the biggest acts on the planet
i get that. i wish she was more popular than ariana grande or that shit. but in "alternative rock" (i guess that's what you'd call her music? idk) she's very popular. i know what you mean though :/
After making Breath of Life in 2011, she asked her manager if she could bring the orchestra and the choir with them on tour for that song and her manager was like "Flo, we can't afford this!!!!" because that is a shit ton of people
I can't believe I've gone this long without hearing most of her songs. I've always loved her mainstream hits, but there was a depth to her music that I couldn't fully appreciate until recently. Now, it sends goosebumps up my arms and fills my eyes with tears. Every single song she sings is beautiful beyond words.
Here I am to *re-discover* all those older songs and see what else she’s up to. Haven’t specifically binged on her work in years, but after just a couple songs, I can tell it’s as fantastic as I remember Makes me happy to know there’s others out there hearing them for the first time! ✌🏻🖤
12 years later and this is still the best "unofficial" cover she's ever done. You can see on her face at the end that she's been totally transported somewhere else. She's so beautiful when she loses herself in the song.
She is an extreme introvert, on the personality test, Myers-Briggs-INFP-Introverted iNtuitive Feeling Perceiving (Introverted Feeling with Extraverted Intuition) Other famous INFP's are, C.C. Lewis, Edgar Allen Poe, J.K. Rowling, Jude Law, Virginia Wolff-( Florence wrote "what the water gave me about her"), William Shakespeare, Kurt Cobain, Vincent Van Gogh, George Orwell, John Lennon, Jim Morrison, Helen Keller. I am an INFP as well and was instantly drawn to Florence, it takes a lot of guts for an introvert to perform live, she pulls it off!
The song has a whole different meaning with such an emotional, yet powerful voice, the undertones, and the violins! It just makes me live one more day to wake up and listen to this song.
Why tf doesn’t she have a Grammy yet? It’s so annoying seeing others win knowing Florence has the best voice, songs, videos, and live performances! It’s a musical crime at this point!
I love how her talking voice is so quiet and gentle... But then she opens her mouth to sing and... Wow. If you had never heard her sing, you wouldn't think she could do it so well.
I love all these live lounge covers. A different spin on a song can be the difference between hating and loving it. In the hands of a talent like Florence, its guaranteed gold.
I've never heard of Florence before. A friend told me to watch this tonight because she thought I'd like it. Wow! This was amazing! It's crazy how you discovery things!
I vidded this in May 2016 so over 7 years ago now. Edited a fanvideo set to this song. I don't think i even realized it was a live version. It was just so good but i never saw all the visuals. I adore this even more now. It's... so impressive wow.
I remember this every couple of months and have to come listen. I love her cover of this so much, it takes all the restrained emotion of the original and makes it big and consuming
I love how people continue to denounce Drake's version but what they don't realise is that the beautiful words Florence is singing came ultimately from the genius that is Drake. Rap is just as beautiful and powerful as poetry.
they would be stupid not acknowledge that he wrote a beautiful song, but you and i know that can't really beat Florence on vocals on his best day, because he is a rapper. But Florence just killed it with this rendition. P.S. just saying do not attack me.
Its funny how absolute idiots say that Drake is a crap artist & praise Florence...but Florence wouldn't even agree with these idiots because she says Drake is one of her favs...people are so fucking stupid. Florence wouldn't even want them as fans.
I always found this song interesting, however, when I heard this version, I have to say in no uncertain terms, it is enigmaticly haunting to a degree that I never thought possible.. I applaud you all for this as long as I live. X

10 years after and I'm still loving this cover
Same. I keep coming back. Love everything about this
Same😂
Best Live Lounge cover for me. Happy for someone to name a better one 🙂
Same!!!
Always
5 years later and it's still one of the greatest covers I've come across
Miley Lover 8 years later and still one of the greatest covers I’ve come across
^^^
@jon castro no dude riri's part is from-(gil scott heron i'll take care of you) this is the original song
true
I listen to it almost everyday. It’s amazing.
My God it is 2023 and I'm still here and still thinking that this cover deserves a studio record
Same
Very late 2024
she deserves all the Grammys. this woman is oozing TALENT
cu
one of the best live lounge covers ever
th-cam.com/video/YgsPMr0FhQk/w-d-xo.htmlsi=rO-fjuwX2Q8oQe1R
It's crazy to think this cover is over a decade old at this point, and still one of the most amazing I have ever heard. 🤩
those were the days.
she deserves so much more popularity
Kella The Killjoy are you kidding? shes SO popular! she is headlining massive festivals this summer and her own shows are selling out on the days they go on sale. shes insanely popular. she worked her way up to the top and she deserves being with the biggest acts on the planet
Dean Griffin I meant where i live. She needs to be popular than those shitty singers. That's what I meant.
i get that. i wish she was more popular than ariana grande or that shit. but in "alternative rock" (i guess that's what you'd call her music? idk) she's very popular. i know what you mean though :/
Dean Griffin I like her voice, but she is boring to watch to. Not really a performer, in my opinion and sadly. I like her.
***** There are a lot of videos out there of her live performances that I think are very exciting.
12 years later and still one of my favorite replays ❤
She should have an orchestra with her, like 24/7
She did a live show at the Albert Hall with a orchestra, it's crazy
After making Breath of Life in 2011, she asked her manager if she could bring the orchestra and the choir with them on tour for that song and her manager was like "Flo, we can't afford this!!!!" because that is a shit ton of people
@@zhenyilani4535 yeah lol
this doesn't get old. I've been listening to this since 8years ago!
✌
why didn’t let anyone know how good this was? who holds on to that for 8 years
Florence Welsh has one of the most amazing voice of this century
welch*
No doubt, USA music producers should take note of what TALENT really is. So much more than just a pretty face

It's verifably true

Can’t believe how old this is. Such a perfect cover.

her voice is hauntingly perfect
Ahhhhhh ik ik ik ik!!!!
Only Florence can make you feel she's still singing even when she's completely owning the rap section.
I still love how she says “I hope we can do it justice” as if it wasn’t a hundred times better than the original
Depends if you're talking about Riri and Drake or Gill Scott 😏
The original was terrible
One has quarter billion views, and the other... 🤷🏽♂️
@@mazharmiah oh well if it has a lot of views, it must be super good. Everyone knows mass appeal is usually a good indicator of quality
@@paroonjoos and just because a MUCH smaller group likes something doesn't mean its better either. you sound just as ignorant. hush puppy
12 years later and it's literally the only version I'll listen to.
11 years later, listening to Florence’s amazing vocals! I still can’t believe i got to watch her liveeee
12 years later and this is still the best "unofficial" cover she's ever done. You can see on her face at the end that she's been totally transported somewhere else. She's so beautiful when she loses herself in the song.
Her speaking voice is so soft, I didn't expect that
+MusicMakesMeNormal i figure her voice is too powerful for a mic lol she had to go super soft on it not to destroy it lol
It blew my mind when i first heard her speak, how her singing could be so powerful and her speech could be so soft and quiet
I had to turn the volume way up just to hear what she was saying, lol. 😅
@@amberp3979 A whisper or a scream with nothing in between XD
Don’t think anyone will ever beat a cover like this!
i love how her voice is so soft when she talks and her singing voice is so booming and beautiful
Every musician in that room created one of the greatest live performances of all time.
Enigmatic beyond belief.
YES!! I AGREE 💯!, BEYOND UNBELIEVABLE.
She actually raps .. Omg i love her.
That wasn't just any water she sipped, it was Holy water because she just blessed Tf outta of us.
Or it was straight vodka.
right!
Lmaooo
Nyah Crawford It's a reference to a concert she did way back when, when she DID drink a little before gigs.
Holy cow 243 likes? The comment literally popped up in my head like I didn't know it would even get a like xD
one of the best covers ever done. here is 2020 and won't be leaving anytime soon.
Almost 2025 ..now I'm just finding it!!
Nearly 10 years ago 😭 what an era I miss this music so much just takes me back to a certain time and place
2016 and re watching as if it was the first time. Flawless and breathtaking!
Same
Yep!
2017
2018 and same

Best version . Class
I love how humble she is . Even with a voice like that !!!
Talks like a kitten, sings like a lion
Truth!
Florence JUST rocks...

+t starr I'm also and INFP hey there lol
This is so good I’m listening years later I’m so in love with this😍
there is just no word that can describe the talent this woman possess
The song has a whole different meaning with such an emotional, yet powerful voice, the undertones, and the violins! It just makes me live one more day to wake up and listen to this song.
Yes!! I just sat down for my morning coffee & listened to it..❤
Not the cover I expected but the cover I needed
woww... my comment doesnt express how amazed I am at her performance. goodness
She's so captivating! When she started breaking it down my heart was racing
Why tf doesn’t she have a Grammy yet? It’s so annoying seeing others win knowing Florence has the best voice, songs, videos, and live performances!
It’s a musical crime at this point!
She sings with so much ease. It's beautiful.
I would've never ever imagined her singing this song but it's a stunning fusion and I'm blown away by it.
wow everything she does is art
I love how her talking voice is so quiet and gentle... But then she opens her mouth to sing and... Wow. If you had never heard her sing, you wouldn't think she could do it so well.
i wish this whole show was still available! the version of "never let me go" was the best i've ever seen...
This woman is everything ❤ from the sweet lovely shy voice at the beginning. To the way whe is just feeling the song as she sings. ❤❤
I had the absolute pleasure of meeting Florence and it was without a doubt a lovely experience. Star stuck
she's the next supreme
Tobias Bass yaaaaaaas
hahahahahaha omg.
🙌🏽
She has always been
Bow down witches!
I love all these live lounge covers. A different spin on a song can be the difference between hating and loving it. In the hands of a talent like Florence, its guaranteed gold.
I've never heard of Florence before. A friend told me to watch this tonight because she thought I'd like it. Wow! This was amazing! It's crazy how you discovery things!
Live lounge has never been the same after this spectacular cover ❤....years on & it's still feels amazing 😊
She makes it her own. It's simply beautiful ❤️
This is in every way an absolute masterpiece. Being performed nice just destroys everything else.
She has one of those voices that really make you think about the lyrics and feel them deeply
FAB-U-LOUS!!! Florence takes a good song….runs it through her machine….re-imagines it….owns it….belts it out….and creates MAGIC. ✨
12 years and I still come to this at least once a year
i love her so much! She goes from so soft spoken and shy and then turned into the machine and sings like no one else can
I keep coming back to this. Just brilliant
Rewatching in 2019 and I still get chills
I vidded this in May 2016 so over 7 years ago now. Edited a fanvideo set to this song. I don't think i even realized it was a live version. It was just so good but i never saw all the visuals. I adore this even more now. It's... so impressive wow.
A very rare time when the cover is better then the original.
A great song to begin with........Florence made it shine
She is so, insanely beautiful.
I could listen to this ALL Day EVERY day and NEVER get bored of it!
It's simply stunning. She makes it her own!
That moment at 4:49 when she's momentarily cross-eyed.
Florence has the most majestic voice
That's what happens when you make love to music lol
😳
That happens a lot with her but people dont notice lol Just watch ship to wreck live le grand journal
I remember this every couple of months and have to come listen. I love her cover of this so much, it takes all the restrained emotion of the original and makes it big and consuming
12 years in and still vibing 🙌
She's so cute and shy omg I just love her!
Please, every year that passes, someone remind of the existence of this song by commenting.
This cover brings back so many great memories from my 9th grade year back in 2011/2012
I love how people continue to denounce Drake's version but what they don't realise is that the beautiful words Florence is singing came ultimately from the genius that is Drake. Rap is just as beautiful and powerful as poetry.
I agree with you completely. I do love this version but that does not make Drakes any less then wonderful.
Rap is poetry where have you been......
Wrong. The lyrics were Gil Herons. Drake and Rihanna's version was a cover, see below comments. I do like Drake's version too though!
R.hythm A.nd P.oetry
they would be stupid not acknowledge that he wrote a beautiful song, but you and i know that can't really beat Florence on vocals on his best day, because he is a rapper. But Florence just killed it with this rendition. P.S. just saying do not attack me.
i like how she's so soft spoken , then you hear her sing
The year is 2020 and this is still one of the best live lounges to exist, everything about this is just perfection
Damn, she started killin it @ 1:37. I like her version better.
still in love w this!! they truly made this song their own beautiful rendition and Florence's voice is of coarse beautiful!
I will love her and her voice forever! What a lady!! this song tho is something else, I always come back to it always
That guitar effect is everything I need in life
The greatest female Artist so far !!!!!!
Jacqueline62 her and Beyoncé are the actual best
highly debatable but I'll be damned if her voice isn't among the greatest.
Her voice is great but she’s not the greatest
She is such an AMAZING, talented singer! 16 years and no Grammy awards!!!!!!
Florence and The Machine nailed this one! Love this cover. She is mesmerizing. Her energy and style are contagious. Thanks for sharing this.
2024 and still listening
Hell yes ❤
I want to thank live lounge and the artist for participating and creating these covers! So pleasant to my ears!
She's one of the most understated singers in the world ....flo #1 2021
4:48 LMFAO. still perfect
Lol my gf makes that face when we wrestle
+TTV TTV what's the face Bran makes when you throw him to the ground
SS do
+camila severiche haha thought I was the only one who noticed it xD anyway I agree, she is perfect
Pure catharsis is what this rendition is
Goodness gracious
Can we all just agree a little Florence makes everything better? I want to buy every remix she does.
Absolute queen.
Wow, 11 years ago. Remember this so vividly. Still so good.
It's 2014, but i still love this cover. Florence is the best female singer ever ;))
djzaya 2018 also loving this
djzaya its 2018 and I still love this cover
I've never heard such a beautiful voice in Live
Amaziiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiing
she's radiant
some how you made this song even more beautiful, i wish they would give you all the songs
I have this bootlegged and listen to it all the time. I absolutely love this version.
OMG She's so cute and quiet XD it's adorable
I wonder if Drake has seen this. I'd like to believe that if he were to see this, he would instantly want to collab.
+Chyna Deveroux Hell no, he sucks.
Evolv23 To each his own :)
Support someone who rips off other artists for his own? No thanks.
Florence is much more talented than that piece of crap.
Its funny how absolute idiots say that Drake is a crap artist & praise Florence...but Florence wouldn't even agree with these idiots because she says Drake is one of her favs...people are so fucking stupid. Florence wouldn't even want them as fans.

I applaud you all for this as long as I live. X
My older sister put me onto Florence and the machine. Awesome!-This lady is a genius.
This cover and her performance still live rent free in my head even 12 years later. Absolutely mesmerizing and transcendental.
Florence the ginger goddess!
"I hope we can do it justice"
sure Flo... sure... "hope"
Frank S lol right
HaHa,if anyone else had said it,I would call it false modesty,but I honestly believe that,that woman does not know how awesome she is.
John Jessome yup
"hope we do it jus..." oila
Of course she will do it justice she’s a freaking goddess
She's SO soft spoken...and then you hear any of her vocals in any of her songs. Wow. Love it.
Wow I will always come back to this
Dang and here I am
