MAGNIFICENT!

From the official press release:

“Wish That You Were Here” stands out as a gorgeously hypnotic and bracing original composition from Florence + The Machine. With its cinematic overtones and expansive power, the track figures prominently serving as the end-title track for the film.
“‘Wish That You Were Here’ is a song about the idea that love is a journey and a risk,” says Florence Welch about the writing the song. “Having been on tour, I’ve lived in a sort of magical time bubble, where the days almost blend together. It’s amazing, but it comes at a cost — a cost of leaving the people you love behind for a year or two. You kind of feel like if you could sing a song into the wind, maybe the wind could take it to them in a way that you can’t with a text or a call. You just want to send your love in a different way, in a way to somehow reach the unreachable.”

A bit of a sad song where Florence tells about the pain a woman feels by not having her man by her side but oh well, Florence’s AMAZING singing makes it all fell okay!

Hit or Miss?
