"That's not nice music. The julbert between some so!" (Says the mother of ex-girlfriend)
You see: The opinions about Ellie Goulding album "Halcyon" diverge. Moment - "Halcyon"? Or maybe "Halcyon Days" ...? The question is justified, and it is not easy to answer. "Halcyon" is Ellie Goulding's second album, and published it in 2012. In the meantime, "Halcyon" has been republished, and in fact is not the same as the first edition edition. And as if that were not confusing enough, the now as "Halcyon Days" titled album was released also in at least two significantly different versions.
This confuses obviously not only the inclined buyers and listeners, but also provides ever commercially for confusion: Ordered I had was the "Deluxe Version" with no fewer than 28 songs on 2 CDs delivered, a single-CD with 21 titles. Anyone browsing in the catalog of the online retailer Amazon, is under the same title by the way also an issue with 22 titles; when one has in addition to the existing material as well just do it again packed the single "Lights" Ellie Goulding of eponymous debut album, which was republished inzwische entitled "Bright Lights" and ... no, wait, stop - let it suffice to say that I find this Ar publication policy under all - Whoever invents something, has earned this perfidious nature of Beutelschneiderei an enema with ice-cold Coke.
Find After all, the decoupled as single pieces "Burn", "I Need Your Love" and "How long will I love you" on the Silberling - "I Need Your Love" knew and I liked already, "Burn" is me recently already at first listen gone into the ear, and the unexpected acoustic "Now times-all-lighters-in-the height" -Liebeslied "How long will I love you" I like also the first time. Be honest: Just the feel-good song "I Need Your Love" and "Burn" to which I can not get tired of listening me these days, would have been enough to buy even Goulding second album for me reason.
Even these two catchy pieces would be the aforementioned ladies but probably too ... so what? Too noisy? Granted, to denote the pieces on "Halcyon Days" as easy to consuming background music, would be wrong; nothing on "Halcyon Days" is good as elevator music. "Play it loud" is the motto in "Burn", and that's a prima Instructions for "Halcyon Days".
With "Halcyon Days" It's me personally the way quite similar with Ellie Goulding debut "Lights": That's what I've at that time also mainly risen to sorting Ellie Goulding great cover version of Elton John's "Your Song" into the home CD shelf can ; in the rest I have only myself listen. Given the fact that "Halcyon Days" was in the mailbox until a few days ago, I manage the preview in this case apparently even slightly better - "My Blood" and "Goodness Gracious" I like already excellent, the rest of the pieces but catching up pretty fast. I think if I would hear through the elegiac "Hearts Without Chains" in Ellie Goulding, I would have told the same story, in principle - and this is for me as a candidate, justifying the purchase of a complete CD.
But what is now with the accusation, Ellie Goulding song is shouting?
Ellie Goulding's voice is quite distinctive, and I bet that may have different things to sing than the ones they published at the moment. Let's see when the sometime outmoded called "Unplugged" albums experiencing its second youth - whether Ellie Goulding their fans for a change, then an album without the electronic monitoring gives that dominated her first two albums?
What Goulding fabricated at the moment, fairly shouts: Hear this - here I am! "Halcyon Days" invites to listen, and who the Feierabend preferably sweetened with weichgespültem easy listening sound that will feel Ellie Goulding album, at best, as a strenuous and at worst as an imposition. I find, however: The woman has a great voice brings real the hut burning and has managed that I developed the desire within a very short time, zuzulegen everything throws its record company on the market - I'm very curious as to what still comes down.
