Stream Ellie Goulding's new album "Brightest Blue"


Recommended Posts

Ngl, I'm not crazy about it. I mean, I expected a more stripped and slow album, but there wasn't much to grab onto on first listen. Plus, I didn't expect 4 freakin' intros (Apple Music doesn't show song lengths). We'll see, though. I wasn't crazy about "Chromatica" either at first, but it's my most played album of 2020 now. :kylie: Highlights:

  • Power
  • Flux
  • New Heights

:straddle:

The first single Close to me was a good lead and IDK why she dragged the release after that. I hadn't heard Worry About Me until the album came out and i like it:lizzie:

The entire roll out of this album has been messy. All of her one off singles are part of the second part of the album called Ego :huh: Anyway, I like 10 out of the 18 songs and the rest is :ririshade2:

These are the tracks I liked...some of them are slightly filler...

Power

New Heights

Tides

Wine Drunk

Bleach

Brightest blue

Worry bout me

Close to me

Slow Grenade 

Hate me

Took me a few listens, but now I'm in love with this album. :bigkiss: I wish she had turned some of the intros into actual songs, though. The only song I'm still not sold on is "Woman". :typing:

I find it boring. Doesn't feel cohesive or authentic and it sounds like Ellie's lost her signature sound. The singles are all so different and were each an attempt to a hit which only Flux and Vlose to Me are considered.

Hate Me and Worry About Me are her worst songs ever imo. I saw her mive with Delirium and LOVED that show and album, it was full of BOPS and was cohesive. 

Sorry Ellie but a big no from me.
