"You make a fool of death with your beauty..." Who writes poetry like that? I'm a 53 year old man who's largely into Death Metal and other extreme genres of music and I get emotional and tear-eyed listening to Florence. Furthermore, I have a home studio and make music, but when I listen to Florence + The Machine, I suddenly feel quite devoid of any talent. She's a true artist who can touch the soul and make (at least some of us) more desiring of living our lives to the fullest. She's a phenomenon.

This is from Billboard:
"This song is about the ways we look for love in things that are perhaps not love, and how attempts to feel less alone can sometimes isolate us more,” Florence Welch says of the new track. “I guess I made myself more vulnerable in this song to encourage connection, because perhaps a lot more of us feel this way than we are able to admit. Sometimes when you can’t say it, you can sing it.”

For me this song is about being insecure about your "imperfections" and thinking that people wont like the way you are, so you distance yourself from them and just sit in your room alone("looking at you phone"). I think shes talking to her young self, what she thought was love and the way she couldnt really get it, only from drugs and from strangers when being on stage. She resticted herself because of that thought of being rejected, but now shes free(you ca even see that from the way she dances, its so free, emotional and just for herself, without caring about what anyone thinks), she learned how to love herself. Hunger is representation of desire of love(or strive to perfection),and we dont have to starve ourselves in fear, we can love ourselves and well find that some people like us just the way we are...

My boyfriend sent me this song. I didn't listen to it right away, but when I did I was in the hospital. This song is quickly becoming a sort of comfort that I cling to when I start to feel like I'm being crushed and overstimulated by too many mental and physical pains at once.
Much thanks to the man who honestly played a huge roll in saving my life and changing it for the better.
If you happen to see this somehow, you know who you are, Sir. <3

"At seventeen I started to starve myself. I thought that love was a kind of emptiness" I won't ever get over this line
