Postcards from Italy - Her most beautiful vocal?
This isn't even Florence's song; it's a cover. An old one, from before Lungs was even released, but I absolutely love it, and I dare say it is the perfect track to demonstrate the sheer power, beauty, and abandon in Florence's voice. The Lungs-era vocals are the reason I fell in love with this woman 16 years ago. Postcards from Italy has all the best elements of her voice: roaring, lengthy belts, sweetly arching head voice, and emotive phrasing. It's just a track that epitomises everything special about her voice and the way she sings, and I miss that era something terrible.
