    Florence + The Machine - Spectrum (Lyrics)
    When we first came here
    We were cold and we were clear
    With no colours on our skin
    We were light and paper thin
    And when we first came here
    We were cold and we were clear
    With no colours in our skin
    Until we let the spectrum in
    Say my name
    And every colour illuminates
    We are shining
    And we will never be afraid again
    Say my name
    As every colour illuminates
    We are shining
    And we will never be afraid again
    Say my name
    As every colour illuminates
    We are shining
    And we will never be afraid again
    And when we come for you
    We'll be dressed up all in blue
    With the ocean in our arms
    Kiss your eyes and kiss your palms
    And when it's time to pray
    We'll be dressed up all in grey
    With metal on our tongues
    And silver in our lungs
    Say my name
    And every colour illuminates
    We are shining
    And we will never be afraid again
    Say my name
    As every colour illuminates
    We are shining
    And we will never be afraid again
    Say my name
    As every colour illuminates
    We are shining
    And we will never be afraid again
    And when we come back we'll be dressed in black
    And you'll scream our names aloud
    And we won't eat and we won't sleep
    We'll drag bodies from the ground
    So say my name
    And every colour illuminates
    And we are shining
    And we will never be afraid again
    Say my name
    As every colour illuminates
    Say my name
    As every colour illuminates
    We are shining
    And we will never be afraid again
    Say my name
    As every colour illuminates
    We are shining
    And we will never be afraid again
    Say my name
    We are shining
    Say my name
    Say my name
    And we will never be afraid again

      Underrated?? Not at all. Florence + the machine is mainstream. They play at major music festivals, attend Grammy awards, Brit Awards, and the MET Gala, are part of major movie soundtracks, and played in pop radio to name a few. That is not underrated at all.

      Reiner something that’s nostalgic is something that, for lack of a better term, “activates” happy memories of the past in someone’s mind. As far as facts go, 8 years ago IS in fact the past. So, to say that listening to a hit song from 8 years ago is ‘nostalgic’ is an appropriate use of the term. It’s not a matter of opinion.

    I do really think that this is her best era but when I remember when she talked about how she was still battling against drugs it makes me see all so different. She was brilliant in this music video, but I can't stop thinking about how she was suffering inside bc of that. I come to the conclusion: everything is not what it seems, there's always something behind, a mental war, a pain in the heart, a human being discovering life, I'm so proud of her in her overcome, pure admiration.

      +Bob Mendoza You missed the point. Songs can "get old," especially if they're cheap and mass-produced. Pretty sure Lara was saying that this song has withheld the test of time. It hasn't "gotten old" and it clearly wasn't popular just because of the novelty.

    SPECTRUM
    When we first came here
    We were cold and we were clear
    With no colours in our skin
    We were light and paper's thin
    And when we first came here
    We were cold and we were clear
    With no colours in our skin
    Until we let the spectrum in
    Say my name
    And every colour illuminates
    We are shining
    And we will never be afraid again
    Say my name
    As every colour illuminates
    We are shining
    And we will never be afraid again
    Say my name
    As every colour illuminates
    We are shining
    And we will never be afraid again
    And when we come for you
    We'll be dressed up all in blue
    With the ocean in our arms
    Kiss your eyes and kiss your palms
    And when it's time to pray
    We'll be dressed up all in grey
    With metal on our tongues
    And silver in our lungs
    Say my name
    And every colour illuminates
    We are shining
    And we will never be afraid again
    Say my name
    As every colour illuminates
    We are shining
    And we will never be afraid again
    Say my name
    As every colour illuminates
    We are shining
    And we will never be afraid again
    And when we come back we'll be dressed in black
    And you'll scream my name aloud
    And we won't eat and we won't sleep
    We'll drag bodies from the ground
    So say my name
    And every colour illuminates
    And we are shining
    And we'll never be afraid again
    Say my name
    As every colour illuminates
    Say my name
    As every colour illuminates
    We are shining
    And we will never be afraid again
    Say my name
    As every colour illuminates
    We are shining
    And we will never be afraid again
    Say my name
    We are shining
    Say my name
    Say my name
    And we will never be afraid again

      Red wavelengths are the longest of all the visible colors . It just makes scene that the longer they are the more of a chance there is that it will be displaced.
