Sweet (oh God, eargasming to the extreme) Nothing

[ceebee]

I'm a little bit dead right now, but I want to write this down even if it's just for myself to remember what a great feeling I have in my chest and my fingers and my ears and the squiggly bits of my brain, because Florence Welch is quite possibly my favourite person on the planet and every time I see her I have to kind of stop and consider whether she might actually be a literal Goddess.

There's just something about her, you know? And it's not like a 'hidden beauty': it's just THERE, and she's so damn talented and she's said before that the only times she's really happy nowadays is when she's on stage and you can feel it. It's incredible. Although I spend a lot of time wishing that she could just be happy, always.

It's the third time I've seen her and guh, I swear I get more emotional every time. It's absurd, I was practically crying when she first started singing and then there were legitimate tears in my eyes when she started running up and down (she has so much freaking energy, she's like a firework).

I'm going to stop before this gets creepily obsessive (although, what the hell, I'm in fandom--of course I'm creepily obsessive) but yeah. She is pretty much my idol, and she wears the BEST outfits and has the LONGEST legs and the reddest hair and the most gorgeous voice/face/personality. I love her a lot and this is a Florence and the Machine appreciation post, yeah boi.

Gonna post a podfic rec tomorrow because of many many many reasons

I have no idea who this Florence person is, but it's great that you are so excited about her.

Looking forward to your podfic rec!

I am already planning which fics to record next. *facepalm* It's rather insidious.

DUUUUDE! Florence and the Machine is PERFECT! You must have heard some of her music...this one's super famous: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PGrx6etMl0w and this one gives me ALL the Merthur feels (I wrote a fic for it a while ago because GUH): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HGH-4jQZRcc

God, I just adore her.

And lmao, me too!

Ok, I really am not familiar with their stuff, even though I definitely know the name. I live in a cave. It's deep and dark in here:) Which fic was inspired by the second song?

I do like her voice, but I don't like the instrumentation that much. I like acoustic music the best.

So far, all my podfic plans are femme-centered:)

[ceebee]

She does acoustic stuff too! I've just really loved her for about three years, I think. Ever since I first heard her singing on the radio.

This is the fic (it's called 'Revelation'...I think it's one of the only reveals I've written :O): http://archiveofourown.org/works/425512

Ok. I will have to read later. Do I need to know the song? I have to scrape up some dinner for the denizens:D

[ceebee]

Nope--the song inspired it, but the fic make sense fine without listening to it :)

And aw, okay :')

[jelazakazone]

Ok. Maybe with some food in my tummy I can process it. *goes off to read*
