#FastSong 116: Kiss With a Fist by Florence and the Machine.

Has it already been four years since this record came out?  This is from Florence and the Machine’s US network debut on Letterman in ’09.  I love the bite in all her lyrics, like her famous “happiness hit her like a bullet in the back”. This one’s a little more over the top but gutsy and fun with a real flare for comedy and drama.  She probably gets called a diva a lot (I’m guessing) but how many divas sing about getting a plate smashed over their heads ?

Though i love the album version, I sought out this particular performance because she’s still new here and has something to prove.  More so, I really hate the official video. Drags the song down terribly IMHO.

Happy Monday!  Tell me about a heated confrontation you had that ended in awesome sex. I envy you.

Get it on iTunes, Amazon.
