Uncanny Valley is IUEO now and the subjective version has been split; cleaning up misuse and ZCE in the process

* The music video for "My Love" starts off with Florence performing in a music hall, but both the audience and band are totally still - the only movement is one man who helps her off the stage before taking a seat. For the first two minutes she sings to the crowd, even interacting with them at a table, obviously disturbed. She turns her back to them and when she turns back the [[UncannyValley entire audience is standing there]], staring up, mouths open as if they're screaming. They only move when she pushes past them, and the whole effect is so disturbing that almost bestial movement of the back-up dancers in the second half of the video comes as a relief, because at least there's motion. The video ends with Florence and the dancers performing in the now-empty hall, until they fall to the ground one by one. It's possibly the most disturbing video she's ever created.

[[caption-width-right:350: ''And it's over, AndIMustScream'']]
* "Blinding" is a song with a pleasant scream at the start of it. A weird animal squeak and people laughing. Unnerving to say the least.
* And the creepy whispering from what sound like ghosts and lyrics about being in love with a dead person don't really make "Blinding" any less creepy.
* And that whole "in love with the wrong world" thing from "Blinding"? In love with the world of dead people?
* "What The Water Gave Me" has a creepily sparse production and, you know, the suicide thing.
* "Kiss With A Fist"- just read the lyrics!
* "Drumming Song" as noted before for it's sounding and actions indicating insanity and or suicide.
* "Remain Nameless" is particularly creepy.
* "Never Let Me Go" is a typical Florence song, complete with its topic of drowning. However, the music video shows Florence melting into a sea monster in the end, with a warped screen, foam forming around her, black ink spewing down her chin, and her going from apathy to agony. It borders on TearJerker.
* "Hurricane Drunk" is an incredibly lovely, melodic song about someone left so distraught and despairing after a breakup that they intend to kill themself via alcohol poisoning.
* "Girl with One Eye" - An UnreliableNarrator who's a rapist, and possibly a murderer, blaming the victim ''they'' abused. Claiming that the girl hurt the singer (rather than the other way around), and how their actions by [[EyeScream cutting out her eye]] are justified. Florence's version sounds crazed and angry, while the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_hbU9RCfMtE original Ludes version]] sounds crazy and ''[[LyricalDissonance happy]]''!
* "Heavy in Your Arms" is possibly a song about a lover who murdered his significant other and then dragged her body to a river. Just take a look at the chorus!!!
* "Seven Devils", the title should be enough.
** The syncopation in the piano in "Seven Devils" sounds like somebody playing bones, probably on purpose.
** "Seven Devils" may or may not be about murdering. Many times over. And then in the bridge, Florence threatens to "break the walls", "devastate your heart", and "take your soul". Well, isn't that just great?

* "Mother" is DespairEventHorizon personified - the person has given up and is begging to be left to their own devices. The ending sounds like they are finally getting their wish with Florence's voice progressively being lost to the electronic quagmire.
* "The End of Love" gives a RealLife reason for many of the suicide references above - she lost ''her own grandmother'' this way.
* "Daffodil", lyrically speaking, is a about a Main/{{Determinator}} trying to remain positive while things are falling apart in their life. The frenetic and heavily percussive ending suggests they are [[CruelTwistEnding about to fail]].
* "Restraint", the third and final ''Dance Fever'' interlude, has Florence snarling at, then inflicting [[TheDogBitesBack revenge]], on the listener. The track ends with someone sounding like they're writhing and gasping for breath.
