Disappointed - Not as strong as a lot of her other stuff. Don’t really like the style.

While I wasn't/am not a huge fan of "On My Mind", there's no denying that was an immediately strong comeback single. This one'll be a grower - I already found myself enjoying it on the second listen, for example.

I like it but it’s not very lead single worthy. It’s more of a summer sounding single too.

I tend to prefer darker Ellie more though (songs like My Blood for example).

very unexciting / made-for-spotify

 

tho i didn’t expect anything else tbh

Ugh I’d like this so much more if it didn’t have Ellie Goulding

I kinda like it but hope there's better this era

easily better than the last lead but not a patch on old tracks like Figure 8 or Lights

I actually really quite like this on first couple of listens 👀 her best since "Love Me Like You Do" (not that I listened to the last album, "On My Mind" was too atrocious, but best single at least)

I see her as being a slightly bigger Pixie Lott now

Pixie Lott? Lol no. Shes got way more international markets. If all goes wrong she’ll do a ballad for a movie. Maybe a cover.

 

:kink:

 

 

Lights, Halcyon and Delirium are all certified platinum in the US now :o

I love this so much. Its what Id love Diana Vickers to come back with

Amazing!!!! Is that 1M copies each?

I’m hoping the album announcement follows soon!!!!

It is pretty generic but a huge bop, definitely her best since Haylcon! <3

 

I know Delierium’s performance was underwhelming but you literally need to sell like 700 copies a day to get in the iTunes top 10 and she’s not even top 40, Cher Lloyd beat her on iTunes :mellow: (obviously she’ll be miles ahead officially :kink:)

but that just shows that pop fans are not very loyal and that the market is fierce, you go away for 5 minutes and everybody forgets about you

rock/indie/adult music fans are more loyal

This is so much better than I was expecting. There's an actual chorus, actual melody and actual singing. Surprised more people aren't liking it.

I'm firming in 'loving it' territory. I've had it in my head pretty much since the first play. I can definitely see it being a sizeable hit, I'm not too worried about its iTunes performance so far because Ellie doesn't strike me as the kind of artist with a fiercely loyal fanbase. Once its Radio 1 playlisting kicks in next week, it should pick up. She should follow Zara's lead by dropping the video mid-week too.

Yeah I do agree, but tbf 'On My Mind' debuted top 10 as well, and that was when OA/OS was only just starting so lots of artists were still struggling with it obv. Hoping this can do well anyway, SUCH a bop *.* Swale's part is actually my fave ngl

Although it *is* worth noting that the 'Hot Songs' is gone from iTunes. That played a huge part in a songs first day.

it's a good comeback but it's not a 10/10 song

Including streams and sales! Think Lights is at 400k, Halcyon 500k and Delirium 200k pure sales.
