As ever Florence looks amazing.

She obv looks very hot.. But its nothing compared to the original. In my opinion she need to go back to the olens, when i herd it was a Tabitha and Tom i though it was going to be like the others.....

Shame

Really not what I was expecting but I really like it, will have to watch a less laggy version. The nice thing is its not FATM as we, well I see them but it still works. Can't wait to see what direction the new material goes.

A few of us have expressed opinions on this thread: http://forum.florenceandthemachine.net/t/879.aspx?PageIndex=4

lol I just seem to fall in love with it more and more every time I watch it. I think it's incredible! It really made my day. Worth the wait. I would put it level with the first one :)

Don't you think the elation is missing? She looks very cold and serious in the new one.

I think the video's amazing. It's so different, I'd prefare it if she weren't painted white and we could see her natural beauty, But the white does really go with the video admiteddly. I think it's amazing. The video's on YouTube now I can't stop watching it!!

I dislike it. It's too glossy and contrived, as well as being really disconnected with the song. I feel like perhaps she's starting to get shoehorned into that  whole lady gaga/"omg she is crazay!" thing, which is a shame because she was the antithesis of it. Her quirkiness was a charming, geuine thing and it's being used and exaggerated a bit too much now. It feels fake.

Equally I don't want to state that there is ever a thing as "good old regular" Florence, but once again, this new vid feels uncharacteristic.

Also wtf was with them dancers? Seriously they added NOTHING.

I don't think it's missing. I know what you mean but I think it's just very very different, do you not think she looks happy at the seen when there in a triangle? near the end

Not really no. There are some quite comical moments, but for me the elation is missing. The first vid affects me to the extent that I feel it in my chest. This one doesn't do that, even though there are some nice visual surprises and funny bits.

it wasn't done by Tom Beard and Tabitha Denholm, it was made by Legs of London.

For God's sake bring back Tom and Tabitha. Get some soul back into the vids.
