One thing about florence she’s a WRITER! Like her lyrics are so beautiful, descriptive, creative, heartbreaking, heartwarming and amazing
Im so happy you reacted to Florence. I found her when i had just started highschool and she has helped me through her music in so many ways. ❤
Finally ❤❤❤
Please react to mitski 🙏
I’m so happy you’re reacting to Florence! You should also react to Free because I feel like you’re going to love and appreciate the meaning of the song and the music video. She’s such an underrated and talented singer and songwriter.
Agree please react on free its my fav florence songs🍀🌸
Oooh, I would love to see what you think about Free ❤
Florence will become one of your favourite artists, just knowing your taste. I recommend 'Grace' from the same album (it's about her and her sister) if you want something just as personal and revealing about her.
Grace is absolutely one of my favourite FATM songs.... It's so gentle and so raw. It's a three way look at Florence, her issues with addiction, and her relationship to her younger sister. Super powerful 💕
Oh girl you just entered to one of the most beautiful universes, there are no words no explain how amazing florence's music and lyrics are. I need to recommend you "The Odyssey" it's her film and it's divided in chapters that corresponds to each of the songs from their third album "How Big, How Blue, How Beautiful" it's inspired by Homero's Odyssey and Dante's Inferno and has a lot of symbolism and meanings, I think you would enjoy it very much. The first chapter is "What Kind of Man" :)
Florence is a force of nature. She is a vibe and raw feeling.
you’ll love a lot of her tracks her songwriting is amazing
My favorite album is How Big, How Blue, How Beautiful and she has an entire short film/music video for it. I HIGHLY recommend it, and it could be broken up into parts. It feels like the album to my past. ❤
this video always gives me chills! i believe the statue is maybe the hunger itself, people spend centuries trying to understand this insatiable need we feel through science, art, we preach about it, we perform about it and it’s never enough, and that’s why it gives me chills, it’s just the human experience, we don’t need to understand it from afar, we just need to be.
IVE BEEN WAITING FOR A FLORENCE REACTION FOR AGES YAYY!!! not watched the video yet but hoping you enjoyed hunger. If u did I would really recommend Free (finding a moment's escape from anxiety and chaos), King (what it means to be a woman, what it means to be an artist, and is just SUCH an empowering song in general) and St Jude (dealing with grief and loss). they are three very different songs which i truly think you would love. Anyway, super excited to watch the video!!
I couldn't believe it when I saw the notification. I've always wanted you to react to Florence's songs because they have such deep meaning, and you chose one of my favorites. As always, you nailed the analysis. Florence once said: "This song was never meant to be a song. It was a poem, written in an effort to understand the ways I looked for love in things that were not love. I was never thinking it would be a song, but maybe that’s the point. And by singing it out loud, together we become a choir, a chorus, higher than the hurt, louder than loneliness." She went through an eating disorder and a drug addiction that lasted into adulthood (she is currently sober). Another recommendation for a Florence song would be "Free," which is also very psychological. Mere, I know I've asked this before, but I really dream of the day you'll react to "Human Sadness" by The Voidz. This song is very interesting because Julian Casablancas wrote it about his troubled relationship with his father, and it's so painful that it's 10 minutes long, and you can't even understand the lyrics properly without reading along, due to the deliberate effects and distortion.I think this song helps me understand a lot about Julian's personality. Julian's parents divorced when he was 6 years old. His father cheated on his mother with a much younger model. His mother fell into depression, and he did too because the atmosphere at home became horrible when his father left. Julian started drinking when he was 9 years old, and a few years later, he was sent to a boarding school (his story is quite similar to Lana's). He felt even more alone during that time and, of course, didn't resolve his issues with alcohol. This only made him more depressed. It took years for him to start getting along with his father again, and he never completely forgave him. I think a lot of this song is also about the fear of repeating the same mistakes as your father, Freud would love to meet Julian. In fact, this song was written after his father's death.
Wow! Thank you for all this backstory on both the poem and “human sadness.” I will definitely check it out! I absolutely love Florence and can’t wait to react to many more! Sending you love!
@@mendwithmereI’d love to see you do Grace!!!!
I could give you a long list of Florence songs to listen to, but I would love your reaction to Seven Devils. It’s widely used in television and it’s a dark, but captivating song. I’m so glad you’re starting to react to her! She’s amazing
The album how big, how blue, how beautiful is my favorite florence album! I think you would really enjoy it and maybe relate to some of the themes.
omg I'm so happy you reacted to Florence especially this song. I remember listening to this one in highschool and how much it helped me when I was mentally struggling, just to hear that 'we all got the hunger' made me feel i'm not alone and I felt so connected to others who may feel pain and lost just like me and it gave me hope and made me feel at ease. Also I love the music video so much, especially her dance is just so beautiful and powerful and shows how our bodies are capable to make art and release our stress in a beautiful way and to me it connects so well to the ED she mentioned at the beggining. Dance can help us connect to our body and see worth and beauty in it despite how it looks.
“Free” by Florence + The Machine is about anxiety and it is a very well written song, you should react!
The comment about the light reminded me of Kinsugi by Lana. I'm so happy we have arrived at Florence finally though
YESSS FLORENCE!!! Need to react to ceremonials! Seven devils, leave my body, only if for a night, no light, no light , mother, which witch, various storms and saints are so GOOD!
Florence + The Machine is one of my favorite artists, and I think Delilah or any other one from her previous album, How Big How Blue, would be excellent. Al her albums are iconic and diverse from each other but still so Florence.
The beauty of you staying true to what your channel does with confronting the tough stuff and allowing conversations with space for what may or may not be the intended interpretation is everything! Thank you! This is a fun one! Agrees with those colors! Beautiful!
Omg can't believe you really react to Florence's song!!! You should watch Free, Girls Against God and Dream Girl Evil. It's beautiful.
I need to see the lyrics in front of me without the music to really piece the full meanings of songs together.
Florence Welch has released incredible actual poetry before, so this completely makes sense 🥰
I'm so incredibly excited 😍😍😍 Florence and the Machine have been my favourite band over 15 years now 🥰
So happy to see you reviewed one of my favorite songs! To me, the statue represents the timelessness of the human condition. As in, it's an old artifact, that reminds us that even thousands of years ago, humans wanted to create more. Also, how it is displayed in a museum reminds me a bit of religious themes, people were shown in essence worshiping this figure of man.
You should do more olivia rodrigo. She is insaneeee. "Logical", "Hope ur ok" and "Enough for you" are soooooo good.
im so glad this finally happened because i’ve always thought you look like a mix of florence welch and isabelle huppert
Great job! Can’t wait for you to do more Florence!
I know you’ve been meaning to react to some Lady Gaga as well, so Florence and Gaga have a duet together named Hey Girl, it’s a beautiful uplifting duet that showcase beautiful vocals and has a nice meaning behind it. I think you’d love that!
Love Florence ❤️ would really recommend Never Let Me Go - the live performance from Flow Festival is beautiful and she also talks a bit at the start explaining the background to the song
Hi, could you react to Elastic Heart by Sia?
React the heart wants what it wants- selena gomez, so sad
Mere is gonna have a field day with Florence songs and I cannot wait
Please analyze Florence's song Never Let Me Go ❤🔥
Ohh definitely Never Let Me Go ❤️
I am the happiest person today!!! I have requested her and described her lyrics and music for you and it was worth it!!! Thank you for making some time for this!!!!
We need more from Florence!! Free, Big God, Shake it Out, Dog Days are Over...
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE react to Shake It Out by Florence!! ❤❤❤
OMFG YES FLORENCEEEEE, shes right up there with Lana to me (maybe even a little more intense lyrically?)
OMG THE ONE AND ONLY FLORENCE. FINALLY. please do the song "Free" bc i can't...
can you please react to “favorite crime “ by olivia rodrigo??🙏🏻
please react to no light no light, it's my favorite Florence song. you have been such a massive part of my healing journey, that I opened myself to working with my therapist after I found you. I have watched every one of your Taylor videos!
yeeyyyh, finally reacting to Florence 😍🥳
Please react to Free by Florence and the Machine if you haven't chosen what to do next.
I'm echoing a few people here so the song can hopefully get on your radar. It's... It's just incredible. I've listened to it THOUSANDS of times easily since it was released in 2022 and it still gives me full body chills every single time 🥺🥺🥺
I've always understood this song to ultimately mean that the one thing that ultimately makes us not alone is that all of us have our own hunger in our lives. We all have longing and sadness and joy... I think she is saying that in the moments we let go of everything and just celebrate life immediately in our bodies, through movement and music are the moments in which we are the least alone 🥰
Yes, Florence has struggled with an eating disorder, alcoholism and I think to a slightly lesser degree, addiction to prescription pain medications. She also has severe dyslexia that has caused her serious anxiety throughout her life.
You will be SHOCKED if you compare how quiet she is in real life compared to how audacious and goddess like she is on stage.
To me FATM so often operates on a deeply emotional way alongside excellent lyrics and music. But her lyrics aren't often as intentional as someone like Taylor's. She moves a lot between describing her personal life and commenting on the human condition. It's sometimes jarring to know which she is talking about, so I've found with Florence's work, it's far more valuable to first concentrate on how the song as a whole makes you feel.
She absolutely incorporates art and dance into her music and writing as equally important artistic expressions to create an entire experience.
So yes, absolutely, Hunger is most definitely a positive song, I've always felt 🥰
The way I loved you please 🙏
Honestly i feel the song could be interpreted in many ways
REACT TO APPLE AND I THINK ABOUT IT ALL THE TIME - CHARLI XCX please and thank you
Also a reaction to “Sympathy Is A Knife” - charli xcx would be great
More Florence!
Yessss! I love Florence so much, think you’ll really enjoy the journey of her music. My personal fave is Shake it Out even tho it’s one of her earliest songs, the meaning and music just hits me every time. 💜 sending you all the love and good vibes in the universe, thank you Mere
PLEASE react to girl with one eye and sky full of song
Johnson Brenda Harris Robert Harris Matthew
You’re beautiful and you kinda look like Gwyneth Paltrow but prettier ❤
You need to delve into the entire album How Big, How Blue, How Beautiful. There's a LOT to unpack in that album.
I love all your reactions. When you react to Mónica Naranjo's Bad Girls album please❤❤
Florence has so many amazing songs, so it's hard to recommend just a few. But I think you'd enjoy both "King" and "Free" from her latest album, "Dance Fever".
Amazing reaction and analisys as always! You are really a force of nature and so inspiring! I'm also glad you liked the song and Florence in general, she is a magnificient artist: great vocals, amazing songwriting and lyrics! I suggest to react to some songs of her album "How Big, How Blue, How Beautiful", especially St. Jude, Queen Of Peace, Third Eye, Ship To Wreck! St. Jude lyrics made me cry like a thousand times!
You should definitely sing this at karaoke!! 😀
i think you would love reacting to the song sippy cup by melanie martinez !!
Can you react to Halsey's new songs, The End and Lucky? They're about her struggle with her health, specifically her being diagnosed with T cell lymphoma and lupus. I've seen people living with chronic illnesses express relating a lot to The End, so it could be a good topic to cover❤
Mother is Mothering and witch is witchering
I love it
I've said it before but I'm gonna say it again. I think you look so much like Florence. 😍
THANK YOU ❤ and welcome to Florence's journey! She's an extraordinary artist. I think you should react to king and free (music videos) please
I’ve seen where you’ve reacted to some of Ethel Cain, and she actually toured with Florence and sang with her on stage to one of Florences songs called Morning Elvis. Florence is nothing like any artist you’ll ever react to. Her live performances are even better because you can see how much she feels what she’s saying and she feeds off the crowds energy. I’ve yet listened or watched her on any of her tracks where I didn’t like it. She’s a once in a lifetime artist!
Florence is such a force I love her, thanks for delving into her discography more!
I’m hoping you start to feel more yourself soon 🤍
p.s. Girls against god is my favourite Florence song if you wanted to give it a listen :)
So much of her work is just totally drenched in meaning. It's really impressive. I would recommend watching the video for Delilah if you enjoy analyzing meaning and artistic intent. It's the kind of video you can watch a hundred times and still find surprising references to classical art and religious iconography.
PLEASE react to Morning Elvis
Definitely recommend her short film / music videos ‘the odyssey’
Id love to see your reaction to some mitski, Maybe songs like pearl.❤
OMG this has been one of my fav songs since I was 12, cant belive you reacted to it❤
I think everyone has our own perspective on it but ultimately it comes down to the same thing..... We all have our own hunger to life and meaning in our own way.
She is so humble and her music and writing is out of this world
i really love to watch your reaction videos. I wonder your opinions about working for the knife by mitski. ill be so happy if you make a reaction video about this song❤
I just found your channel and I already love you!!! Please react more of heeer!, you are going to love her ❤
If you like her dancing in this you should watch the video for big god off this album, it’s very different and at the same time I really like it
When I first heard this song it really hit me because even though I've been dieting for as long as I can remember, I actually started applying ed "techniques" exactly at 17. Anyway, love your reacts and can't wait for more Florence. You should also react to Demi Lovato (but only if you're willing cause given your history it's probably gonna be hard).
I’ve been waiting so long for this video! Hope you’ll react more to Florence in the future, I know i’m not the first to say this but Free is a really good song you should listen to
People feel emptiness. There is a deep hole we need to fill it in. Now the key to understand the meaning is, the statue was actually a person. Used to be. Many people offered love. But it is not enough. The emptiness makes she/he stoned (turned into statue). Because some people choose to feed their emptiness. And some choose not to feed it because they know what they want is actually never exist. Thus, at the end of the video, the world is ending. And the statue is still there.
We kinda trapped with so many people expressing their weirdly way of loving, that we forget about those who choose not to feed the their emptiness with something they don't fond of. Numb like a stone/statue.
Can you do the lyrics to Bravado by Lorde.
I Love your channel! It has help me a lot❤️
please react to “third eye” it’s one of the first florence songs that i listened to that made me cry!
Please react to Jenny by Nothing More! ❤

One and only zzzyyynnn ❤
Yes Florence!!🔥
You may want to check out Shake It Out. It's my favorite song by the band and top 5 of all time.
Given your book on addictions, I think Shake It Out will be particularly fitting.
can you react lana del rey - sweet
She already reacted to it
Omg Florence is such an amazing artist! You'll love her! I highly recommend The Odyssey, it's a short film that includes all songs from her album How Blu How Big How Beautiful! It's such an amazing work of art!
Thank you so much for reaction! I love Florence. I recommend "what kind of man" and "girl with one eye"
Years ago I saw Florence in concert and it was amazing! I didn’t even really know her music but she dances barefoot around the stage the whole time. So much energy and her raw vocals.
Florence has such a powerful voice and sings some truly validating and astounding lyrics. I was thinking of some other Florence song to recommend you, but for some reason this one came to mind: Coming clean by Searows. It's the first song I've ever geniuenly cried to. I don't really cry unless I force it, though as soon as it started playing it just dragged the tears out of me. It describes quiet perfectly a situation I'm currently in with a person I'm unreasonably devoted to. It's very much the opposite of Florence's sound, but it was so liberating to listen to it. Thank you Mere for each single reaction you've been giving us recently, you're shining right now and it's so inspiring to see someone capable of not falling apart during a hard time. Thank you
Hello mend with Mere I send you love. I pray for your Healing. Iam a senstive female from Australia thankyou sooo much for reacting to this powerful song Hunger this Florence is a Very Talented and beautiful woman. Iam 28 years old When I was 18 till 21 I was in a domestic violence situation with my Dad and his wife I battled with depression and I used Junk Food to numb my feelings that Led me to Eat high sugar Foods to spend alot of money on Junk food. I also went through a time of working out hard at a gym cause i got the message from a Magazine I read that I was Too Big. It wasn't healthy. So this song spoke to me. Thankyou for sharing this Video..
Mend with mere can you please do a reaction to the music video of the song Concrete angel it will Make you cry it's about child abuse
Yeeees🎉 finally florence and the machine is really something psychologist should react to ❤
