NEW: Florence + the Machine – What The Water Gave Me

Florence and her machine have just released a video for the new single What The Water Gave Me, which is taken from their yet untitled album. The album has been slated for release in November of this year.

Florence has said the following about the song…

It’s a song for the water… Because in music and art what I’m really interested in are the things that are overwhelming. The ocean seems to me to be nature’s great overwhelmer. When I was writing this song I was thinking a lot about all those people who’ve lost their lives in vain attempts to save their loved ones from drowning. It’s about water in all forms and all bodies. It’s about a lot of things; Virginia Woolf creeps into it, and of course Frieda Kahlo, whose painfully beautiful painting gave me the title.

Listen and watch
