Is florence welch gay

Is Florence from Florence and the Machine a lesbian?

Florence and the Machine sometimes has lyrics that can be confusing. Songs favor My Boy Builds Coffins, Cosmic Love, The Drumming Song, and Kiss With a Fist, all steer to assume that she is into men. The song Girl With One Eye, has such lyrics as "I slipped my hand under her skirt, I said don't fret it's not gonna hurt." This would make you think otherwise. The anthem Girl With One Eye is not an authentic of theirs. It was originally done by a band called the Ludes. She dated one of the band members and began covering the tune. So, that's where the sexual reference to women would confuse you. She is not a sapphic. However, in a interview by Patrick Hussey from , she does disclose to enjoying kissing women. She says, "Well you know girls kissing girls, it's alright! It's a lot softer and the French are, well you know, but I'm linear in England!" The link for that interview is Perhaps bisexual? But not gay.

Also, she has a boyfriend.

The first time I heard a Florence and the Machine song, I was a sweaty, closeted teenager in a hot car, casually getting every cell in my body rearranged by a voice.

It was the summer of , I think. I was riding somewhere with my sister, no AC, and I put my hand out the passenger window, letting the air course through my fingers. “Kiss With a Fist” came on our local alt radio station in Minnesota, and I distinctly remember thinking, without a mark of irony, God I hope this band has a website. I didn’t know “Kiss With a Fist” was a sonic outlier on Florence and the Machine’s debut LP Lungs (), but it didn’t matter: its punk-lite conceit—a not-particularly-sensitive description of mutual violence in a affair by way of setting fires and smashing plates—still lassoed me in with its twisted sensibility.

And, of course, there was that voice, too. That voice. It was layered under DIY, Pale Stripes-esque production but still gave off a subversive British cool, which seemed like the finish opposite of whatever I was giving off at the time. It was authentically cool—authent

'I partied hard. Now I don't drink on tour no thanks to Bono and his booze': Florence Welch, the fashion diva and global superstar who still lives with her mother, reveals what makes her tick

I can’t believe that,’ says the doll-like figure opposite me, a gentle blush rising on her porcelain skin. ‘Nobody ever picks my songs. I’m really chuffed.’ I’ve just told Florence Welch that her track Cosmic Affectionate was the first song that my new wife and I danced to at our wedding. The ballad will forever be the soundtrack to the happiest day of my life.

It’s hard to believe that the woman with the flame-red hair sitting across the polished boardroom table in the Dublin’s Four ­Seasons Hotel is the identical woman who produced such a powerful song. Despite her great voice and amazing range on stage, in person the ­ year-old is shy and softly spoken.

Since the release of her debut album, Lungs, in the summer of , Florence Welch has become a global sensation, admired as much for her unique fashion sense as her music. Her second studio album, Ceremonials,

            I've known Florence + The Machine for awhile but never, in the past, did I bother to watch any videos of them. I was just contented in listening to "Dog Days Are Over" and "Shake It Out". Then, I discovered "Breath Of Life" and wondered how can she perform this live? So I watched a video of Florence + The Machine performing Breath Of Life live. I wasn't disappointed, it was better than the album version. With Florence Welch's energy and passion in singing. You could just feel her.

           So, I guess you guys are wondering why I deposit this post in the LGBT blog. Actually, I started to like FATM more. I searched videos, songs and pictures. Then I thought, "Why undertake I keep on focusing in Florence Welch?" Her elegance, her amazing voice, her laugh, her humor and I even peruse her Bio. Am I attracted to her? No. Attracted is not the word. I am drawn to her. There's something about her that pulls me deeper into adoring this passionate artist.
