the xx, has the love

can't say i'm the worlds biggest florence and machine fan, but i'm in love with the xx's remix of florence's 'you've got the love', which is a candi stanton cover. with its haunting, lyrics and down beat drum and bass style. it's definitely a track you need on your ipod this week.

for the love of florence

ok so i've not given, florence & the machine much love .... infact i've not give her any love on here. mainly because i'm a marina & the diamonds fan and find florence just a bit shouty and a bit too polished. but i've just seen crazy video, someone put together for her single 'rabbit heart (raise it up)' which made me think she isn't that bad. so in the interest of balanced and fair blogging i'm posting said video. enjoy :)
