I don't understand the attractionSmaug says: Ricky Gervais. Lesbian pr0n. Going into a crowded bar, purely because it's crowded. All these things seem to be popular with everybody else, but I just can't work out why. What leaves you cold just as much as it turns everyone else on?

I can't differentiate between them.This current batch of ever-so-trendy, NME-friendly, 80s-nostalgia electro-clones fill me with an overwhelming sense of meh

But Florence is ace!TO be honest, it's more the mrs that listens to this sort of stuff - I'm an old-school grunge & punk man myself.

I don't understand the comparison between the two.La Roux is a painful 80's nostalgia act that sounds really uninspired and won't be worth a damn in 5 years, whereas Florence -although incorporates more than a little bit of 80's sound in her work- is a genuinely talented vocalist who sings well-crafted songs that are much darker than your usual pop song. The only comparison is that they're both popular in '09, like the eighties and are redheads.

Florence is an 80s-nostalgia cloneBut a Kate Bush one, not an electro one.
Also she is indeed ace, especially on Rabbit Heart and Coffins. So thar. :)
