This needed to be so much better in order for Ellie to make a resurgence. It might grab a top 40 peak based on the names attached to it alone, but I’d be very surprised if it became a substantial hit.

It’s alright but sounds a bit mid-album filler

That’s 0/however many Silk City songs there have been - only heard this and Electricity and against the hive mind I thought that was a solid 6/10 at best. It’s just pretty naff.

No? Why would she feature on someone else’s track to release her own song when its lyrical subject sounds completely different from this?

“Electricity is about a friend who had been cheated on quite cruelly for a couple of years.”

mainly the outro

"If you could see me now
I got a feeling you'd be dancing next to me
I'm on my own, but I could never be lonely
I got new love in me now
Got electricity in every bone like woah
Now I'm overthinking that I'm not who I should be
I got new love in me"

I can't post any links here yet but check out the video that Ellie reposted on her twitter. She mentions there that the

"If you could see me now
I got a feeling you'd be dancing next to me
I'm on my own, but I could never be lonely
I got new love in me now
Got electricity in every bone like woah
Now I'm overthinking that I'm not who I should be
I got new love in me"


part was originally the chorus.

Do we need anything else to confirm that "Electricity" became "New Love"? music.gif

Snippets of Electricity exist out there and the lyrics and mood sound nothing like New Love.

I ain't talking bout the sound. Lyrics in those snippets and in "New Love" seem to fit together actually.

it just seems a bit coincidental she has an unreleased track called 'electricity' and then in this track she references 'electricity'

Not really, no.

Or...the fact the previous Silk City song was called Electricity? The very same song that is played at the start of the music video? I have zero idea what you two have to gain by convincing yourselves that Ellie morphed one of her old tracks into her new feat.

She even talked about the lyrics recently: “When I wrote the song, I was thinking about a time where I broke up with someone and I felt like I had truly become myself.”

Note how that’s totally different from her talking about Electricity when she said it was “about a friend who had been cheated on quite cruelly for a couple of years”. So honestly, just stop clawing at conspiracy scraps because it shares one single word.

same with Bleach which is also written from her friend's perspective. It doesn't mean she sings about her friend but more likely about her/his relationship with somebody that inspired her to write a song.

whatever. let the ELECTRICITY leak so we can finally find out what was scrapped from the album. there's nothing more irritating than leaking snippets. why would you need them tho.

I agree that it's a coincidence that Ellie has an unreleased song called "Electricity" and she says that word on "New Love". I really doubt that they were meant to be the same.
