I don't know whether she would be good or not, she isn't the type of x factor artiist, she is very much her own artist and singer-songwriter. I don't know we'll see. As for new music she finishes touring stateside in May and I think will take a break so sometime in 2015.

I'm no fan of the X Factor so I would be pleased if she turned it down. It's a big commitment and I know that she said in her interview with Michael Parkinson the other night that she wants to take a break at some point. Did anyone else see that? It was called Masterclass on Sky Arts.
Listening to the tracks from Halcyon Days. I don't know how I feel about them. "Burn" is far from her best, in my opinion. I love Halcyon as a stand-alone album. |

She has worked solidly since October 2012. I think to he wants to and deserves to take some serious time off.
As for Halcyon Days I always said it should have been a stand alone. The quality is not up to the standard of Halcyon and tarnishes the entire era. But it did wonders in revitalising her overall career so it did some good. hopefully album number 3 no rel-releases or label interventions ;p. |

Ellie talks about her new album
Looking forward to new material. I hope that it's more like "Anything Could Happen" and "Guns & Horses" instead of "Burn". I wasn't keen on the latter at all. |

It's not too much of a surprise one of the issues with Halcyon was the huge gap and the album being so sonically different to her debut.
As a fan no more EDM, what made Halcyon so special was it was a bold move that pushed her way past her debut and delivered on her insurmountable potential. She needs a balance to consolidate her career and push her further but one that also doesn't fall short of her artistic merits. |

Ellie made an appearance in Taylor Swift's Bad Blood video recently. Quote:

Yeah I'm not as huge TS fan but the exposure will do her good
.She said around end of last year beginning this year she would relase the third album 2015. But aside from LMLYD nothing else has transpired news or otherwise :/. |

Ellie Goulding- Delerium 06/11/15
Mainly produced by Max Martin and Greg Kurstin. So a similar sound to Halcyon days. She did explain the album was an experiment in a big pop album. I'm excited to hear but I do feel she has lost her artistic edge in favour of more success but it was to be expected after HD. At 22 tracks the deluxe a really hefty body of work and gift to her fans. On My Mind it's catchy will do well but not the big oh wow what is this I got with Anything Could Happen thoughts? |

On My Mind does nothing for me, and 22 songs on the album suggests quantity over quality.
I really hope i'm wrong but i wont be rushing out to buy it until i've heard more. Big fan of Ellie and will continue to be but there are several other exciting UK female singers producing better material than Ellie at this time imo. |

I like Ellie but this album is such a chore to get through on first listen. Really basic and actually quite boring. Maybe it'll grow on me. 'Something in the way you move' is without doubt a highlight.

Just to add my above post (which was slightly on the harsh side), my ranking of the tracks worth listening to:
1) Holding On For Life 2) Love Me Like You Do 3) Aftertaste 4) Keep On Dancin' 5) Something In The Way You Move 6) Devotion 7) On My Mind 8) Army 9) Outside 10) Codes 11) I Do What I Love A 22 track album suggests a lit of filler and indeed there is lots of it imo. The album never really goes anywhere and just plods along. Drop the filler and you've got a good album. |

Kind of have to agree when she hit's it like on Lost and Found, SITWYM, KOD she really nails it there is a really great album in there but the amount of tracks needed stream lining. It's still for me:
Halcyon Lights Delirium And way at the bottom some nice tracks but the re-issues. |
