Just been listening to Florence and the machine all morning it reminded me how this time 2 years ago I was leaving an controlling and mentally abusive relationship. I had been with him 4 years and finally got the courage to leave although we where still living together. I started seeing this guy in the navy for some friendship and fun. I just remember going back to his Navy flat and we put on Florence and the machine as that’s all his computer had in terms of ok music. I hadn’t been properly touched or hugged romantically or even had sex properly for years. We just listened to her songs all evening. This guy some how made me feel wanted and reassured that I could be happy. A few days later I ended up calling the police on my ex for something I had never done before and I wouldn’t of done it had it not been for this guy making me realise what was out there. We saw each other a few more times listened to the same music and stayed friends after. When ever I listen to her now I just realise how far I’ve come.
Another song is sail away by David grey my current partner and I always seem to hear it and now it’s our song we often dance to the kitchen in it
