How Big How Blue How Beautiful - Tumblr Posts
Oh, that one helped me through a lot of stuff. One of the sweetest memories related to that album that I have is going to a New Year's party at my friend's place, where the two of us just enclosed ourselves in an empty room and listened to it together, crying our brains out while the other people were partying :D I highly recommend getting acquainted with that album by watching the film inspired by the songs from this album - "The Odyssey" - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HajiEqEtIRY

In fact, I probably should attach that fragment with the song "Queen of Peace" which violently devours my soul every time I watch and listen to it:

Mother, make me Make me a big grey cloud So I can rain on you things I can't say out loud
Queen of Peace & Long and Lost: behind the scenes.
Florence: It’s a big undertaking working with an artist for a whole album. We’ve kind of kidnapped each other in a creative sense. What on earth made you agree to this?
Vincent: I’ve always believed in you and your music, and I trust you. You’re the first artist I’ve worked with that I would cast if I weren’t doing a music video for you. It’s so rare to be able to have this type of freedom and collaboration. I feel lucky to be a part of this, and I hope it never ends. Keep writing songs. Maybe the album could have, like, 40 B-sides.
Vincent Haycock: What’s your favorite part of our Odyssey so far?
Florence: I don’t know. Maybe standing on that mountain in Scotland? It looked the way I imagine the gates of heaven would — from the underworld of what king, of what man.
Vincent Haycock: What’s your favorite dance move Ryan Heffington has come up with so far, and what does it mean? Florence: I love the hands-to-mouth to mouth-to-hands one. It pops up a lot in St. Jude. It’s like the things you want to say to someone but can’t, so you place it into their mouths — like a sacrament.
«Vincent has this amazing ability to get the best out of you without imposing himself. His naturalistic approach to directing brings out the best in me. He’s able to find magic in the mundane and create a storm from stillness.» «I have a deep love and admiration for this woman. Her honesty, creativity and power inspires me daily. Thank you for The Odyssey. We're almost done...but not quite yet.» «We’d made it to heaven. The Odyssey was real. We’ve been all over the world with this.»
