I'm interested to hear new material from her. If it's less like "Burn" and more like "Guns & Horses" i'll be pleased.

New album is called "Delirium". Here is the cover

Hoping for less dance inspired tracks and more with guitars

Apparently the album has 16 tracks with the deluxe having an extra six tracks. That's a LONG album...

I felt Halycon Days and a few of her releases since haven't been well produced at all.

She has changed a lot in her image and her music and it isn't for the best. She's a muslc label puppet these days. Her clothes gradually become less as the years are going by. That just isn't her.

However i am looking forward to this album. But she needs to reign it in and go back to how she was before, when it was all about the music. The ellie during the Lights era is nothing like how she is now. Her morals and integrity have gone right out the window.

Umm dont know where you get that from but the Ellie we have is already not the real her, she is a rock chick at heart and used to have jet black hair,wore leather and she was turned down by everyone, she went blonde and started wearing pretty dresses and record companies fell over her. So if you are talking integrity not sure if she ever had any but good on her for playing the game I guess.

I prefer her more recent music tbh, and 22 tracks? That's great because there will probably be a great 12-15 track album there.

Well, On My Mind has been released and is currently #4 on iTunes.

Have to admit, Ellie Goulding has always been hit n' miss with me - pretty much throughout her career.

Looking at her discography, there are only 5 singles I've really liked; The Writer, Figure 8, Burn, How Long Will I Love You? and Love Me Like You Do.

The new single is a little repetitive to the point of being grating.

I have no idea where you got that idea she was a goth in her teen years but by the time she was signed she was a Folktronica/Indie artist. That said her more recent output has been more EDM but she had already shifted to electronica with Halcyon which had a very rocky tack in Figure 8.

I think this album may surprise she has always shifted her sound compare Halcyon to Lights. This will be a pop album no denying but as shown with the best of Halcyon Days i.e Goodness Gracious she can do pop considerably well.

I don't think Delerium will even resemble Halcyon Days all that much OMM is much more pop. I am dissapointed Jim eliot didn't helm more tracks but then again as with Starsmith he did contribute only slightly to Halcyon. I just hope that as with her past two collaborators starsmith and Eliot that Martin and Kurstin prove as good and bring out another facet to a really versatile artist. Plus 22 tracks (well 20 new ones) she really is spoiling us.

The thing is though for us long time fans she has released two brilliant albums Lights which even now holds up and then Halcyon which from start to finish was superb and showed her talents greatly. She really needs to regain some of that wow that Halcyon Days lacked so Delerium has alot and I mean alot to live up to.

But the ellie back then wasn't wearing less clothes and pretty much dressing up like a cheap tart on a street corner, was she? She's altered her image and her sound to sell more records. That sounds like integrity lost. La Roux and Little Boots who both came out around the same time have not had to resort to what she has had to do. In fact, they have reigned it in and are doing more music they want to do as an artist, then what they did when they first started out. Ellie is a classic example of a label puppet. The clean folksy image of her first album isn't attractive in label execs eye. Massive shame.

But she entirely changed her image and sound from Lights to Halcyon which was far from commercial. And she has again changed from one sound to an other albeit to Pop. And again this album is collaborative in the same manner as her previous efforts. Apart from the image change to less clothes I always get the impression Ellie very much follows in her own endevours. She has an opportunity to capitalise on her success and become a worldwide star why not. Little Boots never took off and La Roux fell at the first hurdle so they have little left to lose and will never regain the momentum they once had entirely different situations.
