Tori Amos was much better. She never tried to prove could sing by just getting louder and warbling endlessly. |

Ugh. As someone who spends a significant part of their lives in the ocean, this song has less than no appeal.

I like the plugged version better. The Machine rocks as hard as Flo.

I've always been okay with Flo. With this one, I see why some people are not. I gave it a 5 but I don't know why... I really don't want to hear it again.

Lots of negative comments against Flo, which is a shame.
I'll raise my voice in support for this unique talent and her fine pair of lungs. Go Flo!

There are times when I find myself asking, 'what the hell is she doing?' But, for the most part, her music is pretty f'n good.

The first part I find not that bad, but at the end she really ruins it, it seems like Florence does want to over rule all other band members or instruments, and the harp at the end,reminds me of minstrels and knights, not an instrument for popmusic imho

Flo, I haven't had any coffee yet this morning. I happy though to report that your warbling has given me the lift in my step necessary to mark this song down from a 5 to a 1. Cheers.

Second Florence tune I have heard in a couple days were she is not bellowing. She real does have a nice rich voice. If only she does not scream, which she likes to do given most of the other versions The Machine's catalog.

Good god, YES! I'm so damn over wimpy baby doll girl voices. Irritating. I'm not a big FATM fan, but I'm liking this unplugged session. |

Is this song about suicide, or some other expression of dying? Is it about vampires? What? I think Florence is an original and I give her and her Machine a lot of credit for that.
