Ellie Goulding - Higher Than Heaven (5th album) + Let it Die

[OutSynk]

I thought we had dodged that one?

 

[Pipo]

When is the super duper deluxe of HALCYON coming out then

 

[Jark]

presumably it's not the same as the Delirium bonus track, but I guess with her just because an era's over doesn't mean it's really over

 

[Pipo]

Let It Die is a little nice bop



Love the single cover too

Spoiler

 

[Jark]

album is called Higher Than Heaven - seems like this billboard might be the cover art?

 

[Jark]

album trailer with a few short previews, all sounding very boppy including Cure For Love, Like a Saviour and Love Goes On

 

[OutSynk]

Third one sounds lit.

 

[Pipo]

Nothing sounds like Delerium so color me excited.

 

[Jark]

full trailer with more snippets and some clips from the Let It Die video



the first song sounds so good fuck. very Halcyon

 

[Jark]

[Pipo]

I hope this new album campaign is not tainted by All By Myself's RUNAWAY CHART SUCCESS!

 

[OutSynk]

 

[OutSynk]

Meh

 

[Pipo]

All By Myself remains unbothered!

[Jark]

ok Let It Die is an immediate SLAPPER

 

[OutSynk]

Eleanor Goulding: vocals, trombone, xylophone, vibes.

[Jark]

had a dream we were a beautiful endeavour
sausage driving through the suburbs

 

[Iguana]

Okay I am ENTIRELY onboard with this, it's already the most exciting thing she's done since Halcyon

 

[Pipo]

ok Let It Die is an immediate SLAPPER

Let It BOP surely!

 

[Iguana]

Wait it's not out until FEBRUARY? Ffs

 

[ManicKangaroo]

Apple exclusive, out now

 

[Pipo]

this is the stuff I hate her doing, give us more BOPPERY instead Elaine!

 

[OutSynk]

How’s the single doing? Can we start the “let it die” jokes already?

 

[Jark]

it's blowing up on TikTok, it's bubbling under the bubbling under chart and yesterday I heard an old woman humming it in the street, so it's doing just great.

 

[Pipo]

Some radio station here that mostly plays stuff in English started giving All By Myself some spins. omg she just keeps WINNING.

 

[POP!]

 

[Iguana]

That's a misleading shortened tag line, I was expecting TEARS

 

[Iguana]

Ellie Goulding breaks down

 

[Pipo]

I'm an Ellie fan/loon but it has never crossed my mind that anything she has done could be considered "iconic" except that fucking Love me like you do song.

 

[ManicKangaroo]

 

[Jark]

sounds great

 

[Jark]

tracklist is out

 

[Pipo]

Looking at her Wiki page, I had no idea Easy Lover actually charted on (minor) Billboard charts, slay us Queen.

 

[POP!]

Her streaming numbers with the last album weren't bad but they're mainly based on the singles she released 1-2 years before the album that are now nearly 5 years removed. So not sure what momentum she has with this project. "Hate Me" and "Close to Me" are well over a half billion streams, with "Sixteen" at over 300m, despite none of them really setting the charts alight. Meanwhile "Easy Lover" is only at 18m.

 

[VoR]

Close To Me was a surprisingly big hit in America. It reached #2 on Pop Radio. (Only 24 on the Hot 100 though, so maybe it took a while to rack up all those streams).
