She'll never cease to blow my freaking mind, what a voice omfg. I absolutely adore her, how is it even possible that she sounds better live? My favourite singer hands down.
The way she starts out singing the first half of the song fairly subdued, then just blasts you starting at 2:23. Careful, FATM can deliver quite a jolt!
I refuse to profess love for a singer/band until I hear them perform live. There is too much computer synthesizing going on these days. If I hear them live and they are f*^@ing awesome then I know it is true love. She is one of those performers.
💔 💔 💔 💔 💔 Times infinity Twin flames.... Same soul family...Florence and I If you can't SEE this magnificent You are the blind one. Can you even hear? I would
She is amazing. I love that all the live versions of their music are a bit different and actually live. She is the real deal. So talented. Plus...she showed some leg here! Kudos! Lol
I wanted to see a live performance to hear if she could really sing as good as she sounds on recorded versions. She is unbelievable! Her lungs are amazing and she knows how to use them!
i think the audience was just fine with performers like florence you have to just sit in sheer awe and disbelief that a human being could sing like she has three lungs...............she is absolutely HEAVENLY
No matter how many other things I listen to, I continually come back to Florence and this particular performance. It was by far one of her best throughout the Lungs era. Possibly even surpassing some Ceremonials concerts.
+Nathan Robertson It's not necessarily about that she felt like she was wearing him out and she felt like her baggage and her issues were pulling him down so she felt like she was heavy like she was a weight on him and it may not even have been that big of a deal to him sometimes when we love somebody we feel like our insecurities and our issues are burdens on them hence why she says at the end he never let her feet touch the ground because he carried her out of love
+#NO FILTER I like that we can have multiple interpretations of her lyrics. Its sign of great song writing, don't you think? The tone of this song is strikingly melancholic to me.
We love this song so much that we covered it, you can find that on our channel. We are two sisters and together we are *LIANA*. You might also like our own music, maybe our new single *'Hide & Seek'*. Just check it out on our channel as well.. thank you for your time ^^
I loved this song from the second I heard it. It sounds AMAZING here! I love how Florence just lets it all out when she sings. Why isn't the audience jumping for joy?!
I was a heavy heart to carry My beloved was weighed down My arms around his neck My fingers laced to 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 Oh Whispering 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 (I'm so) Heavy, heavy, I'm so heavy in your arms (I'm so) Heavy, heavy, I'm so heavy in your arms (I'm so) 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 to crown I was a heavy heart to carry But he never let me down When he had 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
I feel sorry for artists performing on Letterman. The crowd is always so dead. She's so invested in this song and is giving such a powerful performance, I would not have been able to resist getting up out of my chair.
Just 12 days ago I was bored so on Showtime they were showing Twilight the movie... I thought, what the heck I remember when everyone was talking about these movies. So I watched it!!! OMG!! Bought the other 4 on my Amazon Prime so I could watch them asap!!! Now I have spent 24/7 watching them over and over!!! Finding all the songs I now love from the movies!!! Better late then never!! I LOVE Twilight and this song💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗
Dear Florence, I am moved by your music and especially your voice! I think you are wonderful! There are titles that lift my hair and create a lot of emotions and feelings ! Thank you for being there and good luck! Love, Peace and Harmony
the first time i ever heard this song, I was seeing Eclipse with friends last summer. When this came on at the end and we were walking out of the theater, I told them this was MY KIND of music. I had never heard of florence and the machine then. now this is my life. I predicted my own future!
YES THAT IS her band , and the music sounds just like the album , i saw this live feed when it aired , and what you dont see is the standing ovation at th end of the song , thsy are in the infamous Ed Sullivan theater , where al you can do is stand , but there were a lot of people holding , we love you ' signs , this song is on the second ' lungs ' disc that was released after the initial ' lungs ' cd came out titled ' between two lungs
Actually Florence is one among few artists that has a V-O-I-C-E that doesn't need any autotune or something like that !!!
until these days
Absolutely correct!! Gives me chills!!
Nobody needs autotune. They just need to sing their own songs
The only explanation for the crowd is that they were so blown away and thought they were dreaming that if they moved they might wake up
Seeing her is pretty mind blowing
oh god just listen to the way she sings the last part, it's like she doesn't even need to try
The demo version of Olde hope is the peak for me. It sounds so raw that it's basically a live.
Can't believe it's been more than 10 years since this, and it just keeps getting better (and truer)
Facts ❤ I'm still
Still
Here
She'll never cease to blow my freaking mind, what a voice omfg. I absolutely adore her, how is it even possible that she sounds better live? My favourite singer hands down.
Hello 👋 Virginia

The way she starts out singing the first half of the song fairly subdued, then just blasts you starting at 2:23. Careful, FATM can deliver quite a jolt!
GODDESS.

Hello 👋 Ann
How are you doing today
no one .. and i mean no one .. can compare to her. her range is amazing ... her voice ethereal.
This will always be my favorite performance by Florence. Still gives me goosebumps years later.
I refuse to profess love for a singer/band until I hear them perform live. There is too much computer synthesizing going on these days. If I hear them live and they are f*^@ing awesome then I know it is true love. She is one of those performers.
Yassss!
Why is everyone sitting?? This hurts my heart. So glad she hit all the high notes live, just like in the studio version. Gave me chills!

I can't believe how much this sounds like the track on her album! Her voice is incredible!!!! :)
i come here so often and i’m always blown away like it’s my first time.
Gosh, this performance was beyond astounding!
She sounds better live than the studio versions.
That's talent.
Oh this is music. Real, heartfelt music.
chills ! she is so far beyond, i have no words.

Perfection. This is what music should sound like.
she's so talented
Her voice is amazing!!!
So talented, so powerful, so unique! An artist in the purest form!

I have goosebumps every time i hear this woman sing.
Hello 👋
How are you doing today
i think the audience was just fine with performers like florence you have to just sit in sheer awe and disbelief that a human being could sing like she has three lungs...............she is absolutely HEAVENLY
She is a musical Goddess! Her celtic banshee cry makes the hair on the back of my neck stand up every single time. Superb!
Absolute original talent right there
Dear Lord this is fantastic. What a voice.
She's gorgeous to top it all off, too.
this woman gives me goosebumps everytime, with out fail
One of the very few artist who can actually sing
No matter how many other things I listen to, I continually come back to Florence and this particular performance. It was by far one of her best throughout the Lungs era. Possibly even surpassing some Ceremonials concerts.
Damn, she sang to the people in the back of the parking lot. So powerful.
AMAZING live performance!!!
THAT is how you sing live. She is amazing
This performance, her vocal, this song... there're so many emotions and they're true. One word - incredible!
This should have been the music video, plain and simple
this performance is just purely magnetic! the music is different the style is a little different but it is just mesmerizing. She is my goddess.
gosh i love her voice and music!!!!!
idk why but this song makes me wanna cry
+carla pereira I think because it is so sad and relatable to anyone who's been in a bad relationship.
+Nathan Robertson It's not necessarily about that she felt like she was wearing him out and she felt like her baggage and her issues were pulling him down so she felt like she was heavy like she was a weight on him and it may not even have been that big of a deal to him sometimes when we love somebody we feel like our insecurities and our issues are burdens on them hence why she says at the end he never let her feet touch the ground because he carried her out of love
+#NO FILTER I like that we can have multiple interpretations of her lyrics. Its sign of great song writing, don't you think? The tone of this song is strikingly melancholic to me.
This song physically hurts my heart
We love this song so much that we covered it, you can find that on our channel. We are two sisters and together we are *LIANA*. You might also like our own music, maybe our new single *'Hide & Seek'*. Just check it out on our channel as well.. thank you for your time ^^
Luv this song, and all songs by Florence and the machine great music
I loved this song from the second I heard it. It sounds AMAZING here! I love how Florence just lets it all out when she sings. Why isn't the audience jumping for joy?!
HER LIVE VOICE IS AS AMAZING AS HER STUDIO VOICE OR EVEN BETTER
I was a heavy heart to carry
My beloved was weighed down
My arms around his neck
My fingers laced to 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
Oh
Whispering 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
(I'm so) Heavy, heavy, I'm so heavy in your arms
(I'm so) Heavy, heavy, I'm so heavy in your arms
(I'm so) 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 to crown
I was a heavy heart to carry
But he never let me down
When he had 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
I’ll never understand why people just comment lyrics….like we can all just Google them…like who are you posting this for??
She sounds lovely live!!
Try every since I first found F+M. I've been listening to her non-stop for 2 months straight. I just can't get enough. It never gets old.
How does this not have millions upon millions of hits/likes?!
Mogę słuchać to na okrągło! :)
Pozdrawiam fanów Flo! :)
I feel sorry for artists performing on Letterman. The crowd is always so dead. She's so invested in this song and is giving such a powerful performance, I would not have been able to resist getting up out of my chair.

not saying she meant it this way, but this amazing song speaks to me of the passion of jesus christ.
