Florence and the Machine have unveiled their new song ‘Light Of Love’ taken from the recording sessions of their 2018 album ‘High As Hope’.
Commenting on the track, Florence Welch said: “It never made it to the record, but I thought I would release it at midnight tonight, as a little token of my love.
And to raise awareness for the Intensive Care Society which provides care and support for the incredible doctors, nurses, and healthcare professionals on the front line of this crisis. I will be donating all of my income from this song to the Intensive Care Society. I love and miss you all so much. With you in spirit from South London lockdown.“

2015’s ‘How Big, How Blue, How Beautiful’ debuted at number one on the UK Albums Chart and the US Billboard 200 chart. ‘High As Hope’ which was released in 2018 is the group’s latest studio album and was produced by Florence herself.
