Florence + the Machine: ‘Dance Fever’ and Lessons from the Indie Scene in London | Apple Music

[@justafidemyself]

I love how she makes each album counts and takes her time to do so. I keep coming back to her with each album, it's not constantly on repeat like other artists I listen to, but a full album experience? There is no one like Florence. Whatever she puts out, I'll be there.

[@DateMike22]

Pure facts 💯

[@paudic18]

I really think Florence is a special artist. Her lyrics, delivery, and voice are, in my opinion, top tier. She is a magnetic force. Nobody does it like her, and nobody ever could!

[@codyhughes1147]

Definitly an actual artist. Not just an entertainer like most ppl in music.

[@dakotac180]

She's fantastic, I've been singing her songs since I was like 14, am 24 now still have her first 2 albums. She definitely doesn't get enough flowers, she's a masterful, ethereal, badass.

[@DaughterOfChrist1997]

🥺 I’m the same, I’m 24 & I remember having dog days are over during year 8 & dressing all indie & hippie back then :,)

[@someoneout-there2165]

Ceremonials is my favorite album ever.. wait.. probably need to listen to it...Lord bless this majestic, ereathreal woman

[@OfficialPrettyLittleLiars]

The album is incredible and what a great interview. Love hearing her thoughts-particularly how aware she is of her icon status

[@Darlan_Ferreira]

Her makeup and the lighting are so on point, she looks like a heavenly being

[@KristinaEriksen-k7w]

makeup ?

[@Darlan_Ferreira]

​@@KristinaEriksen-k7wyes, you can tell she's wearing makeup by the highlight and the blush on the cheek

[@a-bittersweet-tragedy0203]

I just seen her in chicago a few days ago and she’s absolutely insane. Ethereal. Otherworldly. It was spiritual. Her voice sounds just like the recordings 😭 she’s everything

[@vickyhyde9283]

I wish Florence was my English teacher in an alternate universe because her analysis would actually transcend the texts and with her voice you would just be so captivated; she would put you in a trance. I love the way that her mind works and the way that she expresses things. Some artists have to really try to create imagery in their music but for Florence that is just the natural language of her mind and I love that and it really comes through in her music. I love when they talk about her being a vessel for this force of performance and music. I do genuinely think this is what she was born to do. She has grown so much as a person but she has never lost her Florence-ness. Will always be a fan.

[@PianoHits]

in the first setence Florence used the word pure the word sums her up so well, pure energy radiates from her, she is refreshing

[@bernardodiaspaes]

zane kinda being too loud in this interview 4me… sometimes florence was still building a thought in her head and getting ready to put it out into words (because she clearly expresses her feelings and emotions and thoughts best through art and not interviews or conversations) and then zane comes and tells what he THOUGHT she was TRYING to mean and then he resumes into a kind of a generic statement when like… if he had wait… something really really really meaningful might would have came out of florence, u know?... but well, it’s okay i guess.. florence made it worth anyway

[@nostromofidanza1502]

He's very annoying to me tbh. Doesn't seem like he can really listen.

[@ayoma8798]

Completely agree, Florence seems like a very gentle person who takes her time explaining her thoughts/process and this guy just gave me mansplaining vibes lmao

[@hs-mi9by]

Exactly. Quite arrogant, and made it all about him. I thought he was a Kiwi (accent obv.) so checked it, and sure enough: trying too hard. (Am saying this as a kiwi.) She had no opportunity to speak on her terms. Him trying to psycho-analyse everything. duh? How she endured an hour I don't know. Disrespectful of him.

[@jeanlarto1035]

I agree, what a clown

[@shynye]

This album is going to be another incredible piece of art. Personal, powerful, so genuine.... there's a reason her music resonates with so many people.

[@elijahboyd3669]

She’s so articulate. I look up to her as a songwriter.

[@poppyevergreen3291]

started crying when he said "no no no florence, everybody knew, EVERBODY knew"

[@yuminy98]

Im so glad that he said it too cuz its so true.

[@Yehoshua66]

i didn’t catch, everybody knew what?

[@mixiezz]

they knew she was gonna make it big :) ​@@Yehoshua66

[@Homme927]

Let Florence finish her words and thoughts as she is still forming them. She has something intimate to share, so please let her instead of cutting her off and interject with your own thought and what you think she'll say. It kept happening throughout the interview and it became really annoying.

[@string7647]

Thank you for writing this comment. I haven’t been able to finish watching the whole video because the ego and personal agenda of the interviewer is that disruptive.

[@SXJAYSX]

There's another track by track interview of this album on KZbin that I love and the interview really let's her form her thoughts on her own. Don't think I'll watch this one now couse that one did such a great job.

[@jeremiahgabriel5709]

I had no idea she was both An Incredible Artist and THIS HARD ON HERSELF. Like it's incredibly relatable, but I guess I assumed after such a measure of obvious global success, and a billion comments on every platform of how moved thousands of people are, you would realize how awesome you are. And I suppose it's just so incredibly, heartbreakingly human, for her to still perhaps think "Naw. People will hate this." Or "Maybe they're just being kind or pretending." I learned a lot about her, in this interview. So thanks for providing it. Oh, and dark humor is a super handy way to cope with human existence-- which is often absurd and terrible. So we laugh or else we cry. Or we do both. Laughing in pain doesn't necessarily mean you aren't acknowledging the pain; it may just mean you do, but you're processing it differently.

[@leif1075]

I don't know how to deal.with this existence..it is FAR TOO OFTEN TOO ABSURD and FAR TOO TERRIBLE which is part of why I'm writing this this a complete stranger..but it just is that horrifying..how can I write songs and sing like her might help. .but not really..

[@lennygmusic]

[@surhernandez2294]

I love Florence so much. I can't count the times she has saved me

[@ervin9880]

I really Hope that Florence wins a grammy. She Deserves it.

[@giorginatopi7482]

She is truly a special being. I thank the universe for living in the same time she lives

[@Eva-le3wj]

Thank you Florence for putting your more vulnerable songs out there. Free is a really important song for me right now and it has made me feel a lot less alone x

[@arianatriskelidis1620]

This interview is so vulnerable and authentic and just an incredible insight into song writing and it’s parallel with life!! Love Florence and the machine so so much, god tier music

[@Kayla-hw5pl]

She's just so incredibly brilliant in everything she does. The way she speaks. Her songwriting. Her performance.

[@sparkless1549]

She’s perfect. She’s just so relatable and so human and like everyone is saying “pure”. She’s just- words can’t explain. I started listening to her music when I was little little and every time I listen to her music I can only describe it as “ethereal”. Her musics literally make me feel like I’m leaving my body or my heart is swelling or my ears are just happy. She’s just perfect.

[@rorosofunny]

I’m so ready for this album. Florence is truly one of the most genuine and vulnerable songwriters I can’t wait to listen to the songs that haven’t come out yet I can only imagine how good they are

[@alejandrovargas3220]

She is just so magical.

[@mairaregobarros3282]

oh, yes, another florence interview that feels like a therapy session.

[@fernandoelbrat]

So happy she’s back her and Adele were definitely needed in music these pass few years

[@clairejohnson504]

Yes, my two absolute favorites -- can't believe we got music from both within a year!!

[@fernandoelbrat]

@@clairejohnson504 right one of the best years just for the music

[@mariatag6396]

This album was incredible and I was in shock (in a good way!) the whole time listening to it. Every song is so good and emotional and aesthetic and amazing. The lyrics are so creative and inspiring and full of anger and sadness and joy and melancholy. I love it. ❤ Thank you so much Florence for all you do, you have no idea what you and your music have meant to me.

[@lookitsmon]

Having listened to the album, this interview is so interesting because you can really hear the harsh break in between the first half of the album and the second half, starting with Girls Against God. Two very different but wonderful vibes, so it makes sense that it represented before and "after" the pandemic!

[@wimpytx93]

What a great conversation between Two thoughtful human beings.

[@pedroluz1233]

The way she says “Things make sense to me” at 43:26 is almost the same way she sings it on “My Love”. Makes me appreciate her ability to translate everyday sentences into lyrics with rythm even more.

[@nerdyindeed]

I like the interviewer guy. And it honestly seems like they even have a good pre-existing relationship. But dude, I was so annoyed by him interjecting on sentences that she was in the middle of. I'm legit hanging on to her every word and he kept interrupting with his own thoughts or assumptions about what she said or was going to say. She would always kind of pick up from there but the sentiment would often get redirected into a direction that it (at least to me) seemed like she wasn't taking it. She honestly seemed fine with it but i heard way more of that dude than i was hoping for in an interview meant for her.

[@hannafoy]

Omg yes, it's sooo frustrating!

[@NA-dc7oh]

Her artistry and expression is a phenomenon

[@Beauty_bydeborah]

She is incredible, one of the best artists of our time. I've been a fan of her since the first time I heard her singing. It was a video I saw of her performing at the David Letterman show. I hope I can see her on tour in the next few years!

[@geranzinthe]

There are a lot of good questions, Zane asks and I guess he really connects with the artitst. But it's the third interview now I'm watching, where I feel like he kind of gets over his head. I feel like he wants attention, while it's actually more about the artist. He asks the same good questions as in the past, but there's something different about him. Sorry to say, but I enjoyed him more in the past. Tho I don't want to sound unappreciative of his work!

[@jesusdanielperezpineda3233]

OMG I totally agree with you, and Florence is so catartic in her mind or ways she express in life, like I feel he couldn't be on the same mind level as Florence and don't misunderstood me , not many people has that capacity of knowledge and Spiritual level as some persons like Florence and he was trying so hard I don't know I feel he couldn't connect to the intention of the artist or the album .

[@justafidemyself]

I agree, sometimes he gets too philosophical / about himself and how he enjoys the artist music rather then to let the artist speak for themselves. Still enjoy these interviews though as they are more lengthy than others.

[@user-ur2wd8du4z]

Yes.. he is not letting finish her thoughts.. I am a little annoyed

[@michelleribeiro3461]

I was thinking that same thing

[@michelleribeiro3461]

He loves hearing himself talk now or something he talks too much and with this tone like he knows it all already and we are equal like no you’re not

[@donnamoon8769]

It was an honor to see her live in Los Angeles

[@nickname1948]

She's amazing, singles are fire

[@saidekurt]

Even watching this interview has a therapeutic effect on me. Florence, you give me such inspiration and joy with your music, dance, ideas and all the other ways. Thank you for being who you are. 💝💫🥳

[@LAVISHING]

Thanks Zane for having my friend Florence on here!

[@mozmwhite2513]

If this guy didn't love himself, so much, this might be worth watching.

[@GameThrone20774]

She’s so talented

[@jasminm8784]

What a beautiful conversation! Florence is my absolute favourite musician on the planet. No other artist ever makes me feel like her. Her music hits me deep in my bones and flows through my body like golden light. Florence is sooo incredibly talented and she seems like such a cute person, I would love to be friends with her

[@charlottesweeklymusic7223]

I loved this interview & LOVE this new album ❤️

[@frankiewashere]

Fantastic interview. Rewatching it again to properly process all the “big thoughts” that came through. Amazing work

[@user-ur2wd8du4z]

Stop interrupting her uncle Z... rude.. remember we are here for the artists.. not you..

[@claire8735]

absolutely adore her & such a good interview, as always! 🤍

[@michaeld.williamsiii9026]

I have watched other interviews with Zane/Apple Music and he’s alright not too bad. But as a huge fan and appreciative person of Florence/her music. It would’ve been more organic and a breath of fresh air. To actually hear and be able to listen to Florence speak along with finish her responses properly. Without constant interjections, which made this interview sort of all over the place. I thought I’d try to watch this a second time, but it’s not worth it due to Zane’s constant cutting her off, interjecting, there are other fortunate better interviews when Florence is able to express the poetic stories behind her lyrics, and writings etc I’ve discovered. This one is a no for me Zane, the artist is the subject not you.

[@PlumGustave]

He is incredibly irritating.

[@epicface-swaps6194]

I thought I was the only person who thought this but yes!!! So annoying

[@robindebacker]

I agree completely. He didn't show her much respect. I was surprised how often he took the ball and talked about himself when all we want to hear is what she has to say. Too bad. Not the best interview. But still refreshing to hear so much from her about her experiences. She's incredible.

[@ronepp6510]

her at the Royal Albert Hall years ago was amazing

[@rosiep37]

I loved this interview so much 💙

[@makrkhenshav9551]

Simply the best voice there is out there....and her ability to put across her emotions in her songs....one amazing lady....❤

[@AeonX86]

Such a beautiful soul. Her music touches my soul on a level no artist could dream of. I feel as if which each new release I'm living or have recently lived what she's singing. Dance Fever is fantastic . I bought the Dance Fever vinyl though I dont own a record player I just like collecting them. Can't wait until that gets here. ❤ you Florence and of course the machine too! I hope I get to see them live one day. I live in a place they normally don't come too. The closest show is a 7-9 hour drive. But if I end up getting tickets I will drive that far to see her and the band. Worth it for a true artist with beautiful songwriting and music. Oh and of course, congratulations on the dance fever release. (As if I'm talking to Florence lol.)

[@Lucas_TheMan]

My God, she is as beautiful as her voice 💔

"People talk about authenticity in the arts; it's just another word for honesty." - Zane

[@lifeofluks]

Essa entrevista é tão preciosa! A Florence é tão preciosa, e eu amo como ela é honesta consigo mesma e capaz de colocar isso pra fora em músicas

[@dyland7567]

Jesus, can he just let her speak. He's obnoxious. Continuously chimes in dissonantly, showing he's not truly on the same page in a lot of his interjections. She has so much to say here which is really rewarding for those who are deeply invested in her art and yet he just continuously yaps and barks, his mic is also way too loud in the mix making every single interruption even more frustrating.

[@agnesm_23]

Yep. Perfectly said. Take note Apple Music. He is good though overall, no hate

[@manopork]

Interviewer derailed just about every point she was making. The less he interjected, the better it was.

[@seaofsolace]

King is such a magnificent song. Every woman knows what she is referring to. Being a mother or being a king. Very frustrating and unfair. Men dont have to take the same hard decision and sacrifice a part of who they are.
