I'm a light sleeper. I've never been one of those people who can put their head down and suddenly everything disappears. Nighttime is the time I get most scared, anxious or worried. In those darker moments before waking or sleeping is when I feel most, I don't know, I can turn on myself, and my imagination can take me dark places.
Florence WelchWhen you're dressed up as David Bowie, with your eyebrows completely bleached, and you're doing this kind of strange dance with Paul McCartney while singing "Rebel Rebel" in the middle of the Met ball, and Madonna's looking at you . . . I was just thinking, It's become a bit weird.
Florence WelchI want my music to sound like throwing yourself out of a tree, or off a tall building, or as if youโre being sucked down into the ocean and you canโt breatheโฆ Itโs something overwhelming and all-encompassing that fills you up, and youโre either going to explode with it, or youโre just going to disappear.
