"Put that drink down, eat a sandwich!": Florence + The Machine to her 17 year old self! | Part 3/3

[@mairaregobarros3282]

When an interview feels like a therapy session...

[@redraddash2140]

it does! but it's a good one, i definitely feel better)))

[@katelynnabernathy3815]

Her concerts feel like a therapy session too lol

[@Stephanie-ms6wi]

I agree.. I love her so much!!

[@JollyJustice]

Bro it was a therapy session for me

[@wishihadalife90]

As much as I love Florence, shout out to her interviewer Annie Mac! Sometimes it's so easy to talk over someone soft and reserved, but just being a good listener really made this interview for me

[@123cillitbang]

I could take a tip out of her book!

[@zuzusimp99]

Florence is the patron saint of lost 17 year old girls.

[@bloopdaddy]

ok how dare u call me out like this??

[@kornflakeska1]

She seems so mature and peaceful after all the harsh stuff she had to go through. Such an angel.

[@christinatytler8796]

I love, Florence

[@ianhartdige]

I don’t feel as alone after hearing this interview. Especially when “boring happiness” was said!! I love staring into a view, with no music, when most times I have music blasting cuz I fear that kind of happiness. But happy is happy :))))

[@brianoconnor2084]

Be yourself and give yourself a hug. This women speaks so much sense and is so pure. A lot of people could get so much from this interview. I did.

[@luciamarinelli575]

This interview is like seeing your therapist in a Pre-Raphaelite painting

[@annijapastare1741]

I can’t believe she’s back. I had forgotten how much I love her interviews and how much they inspire me and make me see her in the most amazing way .love you florence and thank you 💗

[@CaytonicCox]

Every so often I try to find new interviews with her and I couldn't find any! I'm so happy she is back!

[@thaishln]

She looks so mature now 😍 the girl who wore doll shoes with socks is gone! It is comforting to see how much she has grown. She seems calmer now. HBHBHB was about self-destruction and a way for her to find herself in the midst of chaos. It seems she has found herself and now she is in peace with her feelings. I'm so happy for her !! ❤

[@TCt83067695]

[@jessica5497]

@@TCt83067695 if we would only have that at the expense of her well being I would prefer not to have it. the last two albums are fantastic and I'm sure it will only get better.

[@TCt83067695]

@@jessica5497 Neither would I.

[@PiliHierro]

"it's in the letting go of control that you find you're more comfortable in yourself" that felt like a message I needed to hear. I just love her so much. The whole interview is a gift, how florence opens up and the interviewer really listens to her make it so delightful.

[@ericksaraiva1040]

I just wanted to say (and hopefully someone will read it) that BBC Radio 1 brings the best interviews ever. And it's also so lovely how the entire room makes Florence kind of a part of the environment. And Annie Mac, which is amazing and thoughtful, is able to make Florence so comfy that she opens up that way to people. I really loved it. You did a really, really good job here, guys. Congrats!

[@TRASHP0P]

The message about being you is SO important. I've struggled with that for so long... I'm an unconventional person. I'm queer, I'm a drag queen, I'm shy and anxious. But it's okay to be these things.

such an amazing interview. the whole piece is just like a big warm hug

[@KBHURSTHerMenagerie]

I just love her

[@winifred101]

love her even more now!Beautiful honest giving interview.Love how she mentions meditation more than once :)

[@girlgonewoof]

i know right

[@j.valentin]

Somehow after this interview I just feel so relieved, as if I was expressing my feelings and the way I deal with shit through Florence, and I'm so grateful for that because (at least for me) it's very hard to find that connection with someone even though I've never met her I strongly feel like I _know_ her.

[@bringiton5282]

That was such a great interview. Florence shared so much and I've experienced in my own way almost everything she said. I feel relieved in a way to know that there are people out there can understand from experience what I'm feeling, that I'm not alone.

[@denzilrhodes2730]

7:15 making being a boring rock star sound so profound. i love how you can draw so much inspiration from her

[@catraoinekelly2879]

Wonderful interview with a truly magical, gifted artist and human being

[@Pippi-rippi]

I could hear her talk forever... What a joy

[@peterwood5683]

God I love Florence so much she explains everything that I can’t say so perfectly especially the quiet happy where your just sitting with someone you care about and you might not even be talking you just both are existing and it’s so beautiful and that’s basically no choir

[@thearm7102]

I dream of meeting her and having a 3 hour conversation about anything and everything I stg I love her💖🙏🕊

[@trueromance300]

Yeah I know right! I feel the same way

[@Raay.90]

5:30 - 6:05 i LOVED this part couldn't have answered that question better

[@williambruno392]

yo...she's incredible. so connected to herself and i feel she and i are kindred spirits. thx for helping me not feel alone florence

[@martynasmerczek1313]

I can relate to feeling like you are just an extreme person, and feeling like this is just your "normal" way of living. For a looong time, I thought this is the case with me too after I started to take care of the little things in my life, taking care about having some sort of structure and routine, meditating etc. When for the first time since literally primary school I felt that my life became more moderate, still and normal rather than feeling extreme emotions all the time - I almost became scared of it, because it was so hard to adjust and just accept that not overreacting and not feeling so much is actually not a bad thing.

[@Aya-fk5tz]

I watch this interview whenever i feel down, always gives me a sense of stability. like things would be fine on the long term, don't be harsh on yourself. this interview is like a hug.

[@jessica5497]

Yes i agree. Im sending to you a virtual hug 💜

[@ankitamaheshwari7686]

I just noticed I've been smiling the whole time

[@bensoledade7310]

thank you BBC for this!

[@LoveandHate85]

So glad that she is back. Looking forward to the new album.

[@cait9049]

Everything Florence said in this interview is exactly how I feel about life - she's a dream

I love Florence she’s mesmerising and she’s got a beautiful voice and I could sit and listen to her all day. She is so wonderful and fantastic and I want to see her and speak to her

[@littlemouse7066]

she doesn't have to try to be special she simply is. I really hope she finds her balance and has someone with her who helps her and protects her because she's a great artist and a precious human being.

[@maureens100]

I truly love Florence.....she speaks how I grew up...and she shares her soul...it is ok to share your soul....and accept maybe the frgility of who you are and embrace that without any trepadition....and do the most important thing of all.....love and embrace yourself...ty Florence...

[@lostalleycat]

What she said is everything that's happening in my life right now. :'''

[@marialane1805]

She’s angelic; yet simple and sweet!

[@robertj7891]

Absolutely amazing how many people can relate to her in the comments! Me too. She's so in touch with herself and the world of spirit that we can all see ourselves in her. It's beautiful. :)

I wonder what she is doing instead of drinking and drugs because she seems so relaxed and confident!

she's creating, she's loving, she's giving herself hugs.

[@falloutgirl902]

She said she’s meditating

okay but why do I feel like I just got out of a good therapy session, feeling a bit lighter? lol I honestly feel like, by listening to her, I kinda had a breakthrough????? where the hell did this come from Well, thank you Florence 🤷 lmao

"boring rock stars!" Reminds me of when I saw FATM at Red Rocks in 2019. I brought my usual sock knitting and paperback, and during purse checks the guard commented, "planning for an exciting night?" Of course I am!

[@cate4338]

interesting - I've lost everything that I've consciously been grateful for - breaking your foot when you consciously appreciate them, sounds like the filthy universe at play - forcing us to be strong and to overcome... and I think that her sister being her polar opposite, damage her self confidence - I have no doubt that her sister constantly told Florence to get it together/get over whatever was upsetting her... Those who are sensitive need to identify this and find 'like', but only stronger, to live their lives with... oh - just found that Florence is Virgo - she simply cares too much about what people think of her - unless those people don't have any value to her - and she's incredibly thoughtful and hard on herself - that's Virgo...
