Ellie Goulding - Burn and Halcyon Days

[J_A24]

Just heard the full version of "Under Control". One of Ellie's best.

They're about the only two tracks she's released that sound out of place with everything else she's done... they're more mainstream pop.

and that's the reason why I like them so much

Yeah that's what I was getting at! Her usual songs are a bit too alternative to be appreciated by us pop fans, even my favourites on the original album where the more poppy tracks. But I still think it's written very solidly, it's just not meant to be chart topping pop.

[j.fco.morales]

I think she should stay alternative, not going pop.

New Album is called Halcyon Days

One song has my attention especially.

Under Control
Ellie Goulding, Oliver Goldstein, Bonnie McKee & Cory Nitta

this song is now available for free on amazon

[B Steady]

So I downloaded Under Control for free, bought the first two songs (they are great!) and Burn. I've already got Lights. Unfortunately I didn't like more songs of that album

Meanwhile I really like Under Control! Great free download

Just discovered Burn. Only listened to snippets before. And it is really tricky and cool. Ryan Tedder delivers hits since such a long time now. Not in Max standards but still a good competitor.

Ryan told a story on an interview in which Max called him to tell him that Halo by Beyonce was his favorite song that year and that he wish he would've written it. But yeah, melodically wise, it doesn't even compare.

Oh, cool detail.
"How long will" reminds me of the Dutch singer Do, if anyone knows her.
She was the singer of Heaven (cover) by DJ Sammy.

Halo is an amazing song, in every way. And Beyoncé really delivers it, she did a great job taking to a next level vocally.
I think I would die instantly if Max calls me.
