Princess Zelda

I just watched her X Factor USA performance...

Ohhhh, I love this woman. Beautiful vocals, and she looked gorgeous. The set was very nice as well, love the mirrors.

And I'm so glad she sang Spectrum! Bit of a surprise, and now I hope it will be a single. Ah, its my second favourite song on the album, such amazing imagery. And I have to say, I kinda get chills hearing a song like Spectrum on a programme like X Factor - Flo, and the song, are just so much better.

I do wish she sang the chorus to Spectrum a little differently though: I wish she sang the 'we are shining' bit like on the album, instead of shortening it, though she's probably making it different to the album version on purpose. I don't know, I don't really mind. I just love the chorus so much. :sweat:

She sings it differently live because it's hard to sing and I'm sure it could damage her voice, like if she sang the chorus of Rabbit Heart live as high as she does on the studio version. So instead of going "Weee are SHIIIIning" (going high in the capitalised letters), she just goes "Weee aaaaaaaaaareeeeeeeeee", but I love it that way too :).

The stage was stunning. I hope Spectrum is not the next single. The song is kinda boring and the chorus is a bit shouty.

I kinda agree. I don't really like Spectrum as much as everyone else. :shrug: I think it may be the lyrics.

Still like the performance though.

I don't like Spectrum too much either. I'm kinda surprised it's the next single. I was expecting Only If For a Night.

"Never Let Me Go" is probably one of my favorite Florence songs ever. So beautiful.

Is there a folder around with some Florence acoustic/live stuff in? (I have the ceremonials disc 2 shiz). I just NEED more "Never Let Me Go".

Only If For a Night must be a single, it'd be incredible. But I wanted Spectrum as a single as well, so I'm happy.

Oh yes, I do completely understand why she doesn't. I think I'm just spoilt by the album version. :yell: But she still sings it beautifully live, and the chorus is lovely. :)

I love both versions, the studio one is perfect... studio. And the live one is perfect... live :haha:. Maybe the screaminess of the studio version wouldn't work live :shrug:.

I really love the screaminess in the chorus. And yeah, maybe it wouldn't work as well live. But I just like it when artists make live versions a little bit different anyway, means you've got another version to listen too. :yes:
