I threw a few Florence & The Machine songs on a playlist what seems like forever ago, but I only recently got ahold of the entire Lungs album and have since fallen totally in love with it. It's the perfect "daytime" music for driving, doing things around the house, you name it. The album in its entirety has a variety of songs, ranging from the popular "Dog Days Are Over" to the really upbeat "Kiss With a Fist" and a handful of more mellow songs. One thing remains pretty constant though... the woman has an incredible voice.
The album, which came out in 2009, was re-released in 2011 including a second portion called "The B-Sides" with a demo of "I'm Not Calling You a Liar" (Then called Ghosts), a live version of "You've Got the Love", and a few covers. I was particularly excited and totally surprised to hear a cover of Cold War Kid's "Hospital Beds."
A new album is set to be released sometime in November, but in the meantime, I definitely recommend checking out Lungs! You can follow this link to get to the Florence & The Machine YouTube channel and watch the video for "You've Got the Love."

Lungs is a fabulous CD, I was addicted to the album and in particular 'Howl' I listened to it over, over, and over again. Just put it on right now actually haha.

I have to add my voice to the cacophony singing Florence + the Machine's praises. This is an unbelievable album from a whopper of a talent. I first heard "Hurricane Drunk" on KCRW and within minutes had committed to buying the whole album. That was a month ago, and I gotta tell you, the album still hasn't gotten old despite repeated playings.
