This is a gift

The night before last was for remembering. As a part of my birthday present we journeyed to the Wiltern theater in Hollywood to see...
FLORENCE + THE MACHINE!!!!
We didn't know much of her music, just on the radio and i owned one song of hers. We went and our minds were blown! She is this skinny british woman who dances about on stage like a fairy in billowy clothes, she's rather girlish in her actions so we were completely caught off guard by her Voice. Her Voice must come up from deep in the earth because it's hard to believe that such a huge, full, breath taking Voice could come from her body. She never missed a note.
Hers is a Voice that you can almost see, it fills you up to your throat with thick tones and colors. It throbs and dances above the audience with passion. I mean, her Voice is so perfect it deserves to be capitalized! In fact, i will do that right now.
As she trotted about on stage she smiled and interacted with her audience. She accepted gifts of My Little Pony drawings and pink masks. She got the audience all jumping for the last song and throwing their hands up to shout "Raise It Up!". She was a wonder to see!
Beautiful! Bravo Florence, bravo!
