“Delilah” by Florence And The Machine

"Delilah" comes from How Big, How Blue, How Beautiful, Florence and the Machine's third album, and on 27 November 2015 it became the fourth and last single taken from the record. Florence Welch wrote it with Isabella Summers, and Markus Dravs produced. Rolling Stone's Jon Blistein heard it open sparsely, Welch's multi-tracked vocals calling and answering each other over simple piano, and the credits fill in the rest: Leo Abrahams on electric guitar, Mark Saunders on bass, Christopher Lloyd Hayden on drums and percussion, and engineer Robin Baynton doubling on piano and organ.

Vincent Haycock directed the video, shot in Los Angeles for The Odyssey series. Welch wanders a warren of motel rooms, dancing, giving a man a haircut and running into a goblin, before riding off through the city streets like someone finally set loose.
