Ellie Goulding’s new song Hanging On (featuring Tinie Tempah) came out yesterday… it’s a pretty cool cover, but not quite changing my life.

It’s growing on me, though. Her recent take on the weekend’s High For This definitely got better the third or fourth time around.

I quite like the new(ish… ok I missed it) video for Lights. Click through above***- it’s very starsfireflies. I like the visual effect using the constellations, and it reminds me of this time I was making out with someone in my driveway and we both happened to see shooting stars, like, totally independently. At the time I wondered if we wished for the same thing. Evidently not.
BUT I DIGRESS. (Slack, please? It’s 4:30am.)
Ahh yes, ELLIE GOULDING! Just to show you how I’m a die-hard (like Bruce Willis*) who’s been starry eyed since day one, I’m giving you all seven of my favorite Ellie songs that you won’t find on Spotify (cause it thucks):
From my absolute favorite on down, all of the following are highly recommended.

See why I love her?** Also, just watch this, and try not to fall in love.
oh, right:
*Yes I did. Yes I did.
**(If not then bitches, get a stick. I’m done leading the blind.*)
