I love Holding On For Life but seems really strange to push it so late.

Turns out her collaboration with Emil Nava is for an advertisement of Deichmann’s 2017 Spring Summer range, with 'Something in the Way You Move' used as the song choice:

Nice for this song to have a video that's more typical music video-looking than the "live in concert" treatment it received originally! It's just a bit late.

I agree, it is better, but only marginally so. Tbh I feel I've really gone off Ellie this past couple of years and it's tainted my opinion of this song which, at the time, was a such burst of joy and euphoria and would have made such a strong single. Now, I kinda find myself not feeling anything when I hear the song.

Really really good result! I know people look at this era as a disappointment but even though it was a comedown from Halcyon, it did really quite well.

So after unashamedly loving everything Ellie’s put out this ‘era’ and liking a lot of her previous singles I’ve finally decided to go through her previous albums, starting with this! I’m gonna try and space it out so I don’t have to comprehend all 22 tracks at once :’) So I’ve listened to about half the album today and next week I’ll try the other half. I already knew Something In The Way You Move, On My Mind, Love Me Like You Do, Army, Outside and thanks to AFSC Lost and Found, which I absolutely love and is the reason I’m listening to this
 So it’s not quite so daunting in that context  I’m loving Aftertaste, Around U and Keep On Dancin’ so far.

Lost and Found is literally still something I go back to over and over again I love it so much
 Keep on Dancin and Aftertaste were bops as well! I’d quite like to back to this as a whole album I may do it in two halves as well tbh

So I decided to just listen to the whole thing and it's certainly an experience, in the best way
So much to go back to!

Delirium gets shit because it's too long that's the only issue with it really sadly

I've had a listen to the album today and it's really good! I agree that the only issue is the length but even that's a minor point, regarding the standard edition at least. I'd save tracks 1-11 and 'Lost & Found' (yes, even 'On My Mind' - it's not one of my faves as such but it doesn't sound so bad in the context of the album). I like 'Army' too but it's kind of redundant when the far superior 'Love Me Like You Do' is on the album (I'd probably have that close the album).
'Aftertaste', 'Keep On Dancing' and 'Don't Need Nobody' are great discoveries, as was 'Lost & Found' in AF Idol. 'Something in the Way You Move' should have been a proper single. It should have replaced 'Army' which people clearly weren't that here for given it had huge exposure on an ITV advertisement. |

I've always said this is a great album! It seemed to get a really hard time but its length really is the only issue. I'd trim a couple of the standard tracks, add Outside as a bonus track and leave the album as a really solid 15-track release, with no deluxe.

I don't mind the filler songs, my main issue with Delirium and imo the reason it failed to make a large impact was the single choices.

I’ve always loved this album and yes it has got a lot of tracks on it but I’m not one to complain about quantity, especially when to me, there’s only one song on the album that is subpar.
Personally I think the singles should have been: (Love Me Like You Do) > Keep On Dancin’ > Lost & Found > Something In the Way You Move > Don’t Need Nobody > Devotion > Codes > Scream It Out. I imagined Scream It Out would have been a good song to release to complete the era as a gift to fans with a tour-montage M/V or something along those lines. I do enjoy On My Mind and Army but they’re hardly commercially comparable to the songs I’ve chosen IMO. |

I gave this a full listen today and it’s so much better than I initially thought.
On My Mind is awful and Army is quite meh I wasn’t keen on those as single choices. For me Lost and Found, Devotion and Scream It Out make the holy trinity It is long as an album but it’s actually rather good so I’m now quite sad to hear Ellie’s comments on this era what she made earlier. I’d say it’s probably her most generic album but that doesn’t really mean it’s bad. I’ve really slept on this album it seems though! |
