"RABBIT HEART (RAISE IT UP)" FLORENCE + THE MACHINE (2009)

The vocal performance, tempo shifts and slippery meanderings of the harp make “Rabbit Heart” one of my all-time favorite Florence anthems. The band stormed onto the scene in a hurry with one of the best debut albums in years. “Rabbit Heart” was one of many tracks that made Lungs the amazing album it is, but it was the one song that gave us a peek into Florence’s mindset amidst the band’s newfound success.

“The looking glass so shiny and new. How quickly the glamor fades. I start spinning slipping out of time. Was that the wrong pill to take?”
