March 16, 20214 yr Author ROUND 7 RESULTS: 05 22 Florence + The Machine - Howl Definitely happy with that result, especially with everything being so close! It was an incredible Top 4 that would have been hard to beat! The final round is... the final round. Send a choice to win. I think this is harder for poor Florence as her biggest selling singles are a cover and a Calvin Harris remix which aren't really her most loved. I've already sent her most well known outside of those (Dog Days) and one of her most beloved songs (Queen of Peace) which definitely performed solidly but were faltering against the tougher competition. Soooo I'm going to play the joker! I'm thinking Cosmic Love always had this pencilled in for the final round as it is deeply loved amongst many fans (so there should be some guaranteed votes!) and the atmosphere of the song feels the perfect closer to the whole game with the lyrics and the fireworks going off towards the end. It always seems to do well in the Record of the Decade rounds against other big hitters so hopefully that can translate into this game! I take it we're saving 'Cosmic Love' for later then :cheer: WaiT my ultimate favourite would be Cosmic Love of course but you didn't mention that. That over everything xx Dog Days and Cosmic Love >>> no light no light same Cosmic Love is Florence #1 song C O S M I C L O V E it's coming :cheeseblock:
March 16, 20214 yr O M F G ARE YOU BEING SRS YASSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS - I JUST CAME HERE TO POST ABOUT SENDING IT :cheeseblock:
March 16, 20214 yr Author OVER SPECTRUM???????? I think in this type of round, it'll be one of those songs that just misses out on people's votes! It's her biggest hit but not her most loved. Plus it'll be nice to send 8 songs that fully represent Florence, rather than sending a collaboration with Calvin.
March 16, 20214 yr I assumed it would be 'You've Got The Love' ! It's a brave choice and wish you all the best, I do like the song but this could be the first time I don't vote for Florence cause the competition will be very strong I'd imagine! But if you wanna tie this up with a purely Florence song I don't blame you!
March 16, 20214 yr Poor Flopence :( You are flopping harder with Florence than Spicy Ones with Forever! Shoulda listened! TWTWGM or OIFTN woulda won. SPECTRUM, SAY MY NAME, NEVER LET ME GO, SHIP TO WRECK, WHAT KIND OF MAN, ST. JUDE, WTWGM, WW?, LOVER TO LOVER OR ONLY IF FOR A NIGHT NOW FOR THE FINAL!!!

March 17, 20214 yr not a big fan of Spectrum, and zero fan of You Got the Love Cosmic Love is the best choice, it's one of the best songs of this century <3
March 17, 20214 yr Author ROUND 8: For the Win COSMIC LOVE the stars, the moon, they have all been blown out, you left me in the dark With our final bow as the contest comes to an end, we conclude with the absolutely beautiful Cosmic Love. It feels the perfect song to end the contest with as it is regarded as one of her very best and, as the lyrics state, the stars and the moon are going out. In the closing moment, there's also the second best use of fireworks in a song as we celebrate the contest as a whole! The song closed off the Lungs era and heavily uses the harp and drums, both instruments used heavily across Florence's discography. It may not have smashed but I hope the beauty of the song shines out. 2EIeUlvHAiM
