The Florence and the Machine Rankdown

Hi everyone and welcome to The Florence + the Machine Rankdown. I know a lot of you are familiar
with the offerings of Rock Queen Florence and I look forward to your rankings.
And hopefully for some of you this will be a great introduction to true artistry, talent and lyrical perfection.

While you’re listening to all this greatness, don’t resist the urge to frolic around your bedroom
or other chosen venue as only Florence can do so ethereally and sprite-like.

How to Rank:
If you’re reading this, you’re likely no stranger to the process but just in case: Listen to the selected songs and then rank them in order of your preference 1 being your favorite and working your way down numerically to your least favorite. Please be sure to rank every song. No ties allowed. PM your list to Albie .

How it's Scored:
As is standard, I will use an inverse point system, add up all of the points and the song with the most points wins. I will reveal the songs from least favorite to most favorite. If there is a tie, the highest individual ranking will be used as the tiebreaker. If after that, there is still a tie, the second highest individual ranking will be used as the tiebreaker and so on.

When it's Due:
Tuesday, June 6.
I will be sure to remind you of deadline as it approaches. As an important note, please be sure to listen to songs you don’t know so as to give them as fair a chance as possible.

I think I'll do it, but be careful any tankers of "You've Got The Love"...

[Deleted]

Well I’m bookmarking this

[Deleted]

I'm working on this right now and I already feel the need to put up a disclaimer. I LOVE every single one of these songs. Literally could write out the lyrics to almost every single one of them if you asked me to, she is my god. I'm having to rank some of my all-time favorite songs in my bottom 10 so when it comes down to reveals I don't want to hear s**t about my picks. Every single one of them has a place in my heart this is so emotional I want to rank everything at #1.

Hoping for some good things out of 'Heavy In Your Arms', 'No Light, No Light' and 'Over The Love'!

[Zeebz]

Ugh yes IN.

This is gonna be so hard though ugh </3

This was really emotional and fun to do. Going through all the songs made me realize all the moments in my life I associate with Florence, her music has been there for me during the worst and best moments of my life. I remember scream singing to Dog Days when my grandpa died, hearing Shake It Out when I was suicidal in highschool, listening to Cosmic Love for the first time and realizing how beautiful music could sound. It's so cool to have an artist that really impacts your life and is apart of it in a weird way. I'm so grateful this woman exists

yeah...I thought I knew my top 10 going into this but it was much, much harder to rank than I even thought.  It was even more difficult to see myself rankings songs so low when I absolutely love them.  That's what happens when you're faced with discographic perfection.  

Also, I wanted to 'love' your post but this isn't Facebook. I'm glad to hear you've surpassed difficult moments in your life, and with the help of Ms. Welch no less.

"Not Fade Away" & "Hurricane Drunk" aren't in this???

I know, I know.  I almost included "Hurricane Drunk" for sure but I wanted to stick to 45 songs.

[Glove Slap]

Fun fact, this is due exactly 3 years after I first saw her live.

[LBTrocks]

Thanks for the tag, but I'll be passing on this one.
