Revisiting a prior post + Florence and the Machine

In June of 2012 I had a post about Poznan's attempt to set a Guinness record for the number of paper lanterns launched.  I had a few pictures, but no video.  However, I recently stumbled across an video on YouTube where someone took video footage from the launching of the lanterns and overlaid the song Cosmic Love from Florence and the Machine.  I thought the video footage was very cool, so I thought I would add this post with a pointer to the video.

If you aren't familiar with the band Florence and the Machine, you should give them a listen.  I'll post a few more videos from YouTube below from the band.  The lead singer, Florence Welch, is this generation's Annie Lennox in my opinion, in that she just has an incredible voice.



First up is a video for the song they did for the recent movie "Snow White and the Huntsman".  It's called "Breath of Life".

This is the band performing the song "What the Water Gave Me" live on "Later Live with Jules Holland" in the UK.

Last up in this sample is the song "No Light".

You see can see more of their video's on YouTube, or buy the albums (I think there are 2 at the moment).  Their first album spent over 65 weeks in the UK Top 40, so they definitely have a following.

Enjoy!
