I got bored to it after listening to it for too much bout a year ago, dont even know what brought me back, propably my sad mood. But gladly. I had forgotten how much i loved this song

È una delle tanti migliori delle sue raccolte ,canzone dolce ossessiva coinvolgente espressiva da Giuseppe Tambuzzo di Milano Lombardia Italia 🇮🇹 il vecchietto sessantottenne italiano
Lol no. The meaning of this song isn't that 'love lasts forever'. She is saying that she and her partner keep chasing each other when it's a dead-end relationship that isn't actually working. They keep arguing and fooling each other into thinking that the relationship will resolve itself but deep down she knows it won't.
Natasha Ferreira I feel like she keeps trying to tell herself it will work, and he wants to agree, but small things happen that mess them up, and theyre running in endless circles trying to figure it out hence the figure 8 .. so pretty much what you said XD
itsBlackDzn lol I've seen her live before she became mainstream and famous. She definitely wouldn't be the success she is today if her only motivation to make music was for the money.
This came out a few weeks before my boyfriend killed himself. It described my feelings so well and I listened to it constantly. Still her best in my opinion.
@allircat, I'm so sorry to your loss. My partner just had an attempt weeks after I almost lost my life. I'm afraid he will go, but this time do it without my in the home to help. May this year year bring you fortune happiness and peace ❤️
She's really pretty!:-) anyone agree? I love her accent in her music. She's relly expressive and all her songs bring out the strongest emotions in me. Still playing this all the way up! 2015**
Ikr! My favorite song by Ellie Goulding are a tie between Beating heart Figure 8 The writer Love me like you do Burn Lights Outside I need your love Your biggest mistake
People wondering about the triangle Ellie only has one tattoo and its that triangle she probably wanted to show it in the music video because she liked it so its in certain parts (or just because of the angle) also in the song Tessellate on Halcyon days it says "triangles are my favorite shape, three points where two lines meet. :D hope this satisfies the curious people in the comments asking about the triangles.
Listening to this 10 years later, I’m more and more convinced the “lover” in this video is the devil. Those who give their all to an “idea” of true love that is actually temporary. Promised forever but it’s taken away bc he doesn’t have forever to give
I love the way she expresses her writhing pain of love and the whole display of sheer genuine emotion and deep sadness that she held in halcyon. But the way she introduced Delirium, the calming intro, as if her life had settled, and then all this happiness, and pure joy came with her Delirium album... Its a magnificent metamorphosis that Ellie has displayed here. Truly amazing.
Ellie Goulding has been my favourite artist for the longest time ever yet. I love all of her songs & wish I can meet her :( I wanna tell her something so badly :(( so any haters back off or else you'll get 1 000 000 pieces of me.
British singer and songwriter Ellie Goulding has only one tattoo. Her tattoo is an outline of a triangle on the inside of her right wrist. Ellie loves triangles and she explained “Triangles are my favourite shape, three points where two lines meet.”
essentially the "red" you see is her love for her partner, she is drowning in it, blinded by it, tied up with it... she is enveloped in this love, and she needs him more than she can ever take... the love is too powerful but too sore, and in the end she finally "lets go" figuratively when she drops the red cloth, meaning she is finally over the hurdle of this love and she can finally be at peace with herself and not need him as much.
@@HalcyonRyan well actually it's based on involuntarily summoning to a supernatural unseen force that makes her slave to another life she never chose. The love angle is a dimesional on-going bond that she is not conscious of with her star crossed lover...meanwhile being slave to being constantly summoned to perform tasks she hates in order to understand and break free from what she believes is a 'forced love'. When in fact it is the summoning in the middle of the night which is clouding her entire judgement.
One of the sexiest voices I've personally heard in music. Doesn't really sound like anyone but herself. Ellie was sick she got sh*t jumping back in the day!
her voice is beautiful!! i love listening to her music... it makes me dance, sometimes it'll make me want to cry, and other times i just get so happy! :-D Lakiesha Williams
I do too!... I love the bass track in this song, almost a "dubstep" type beat!... VERY powerful song on really good speakers!... I always thought that this song could have been another good radio hit for her, but they never released it as one... Oh well, "Halcyon Days" is an awesome album, and I can play this song anytime I want because I bought the 2 CD special edition the day it was released... I can hardly wait to see what she comes up with next!... It's gonna be hard for her to outdo herself with her next album, but she is a really good artist so I have faith she will! :)
she's amazing!! and i love her "Goodness Gracious" song as well! some people kind of find it overrated... I completely disagree, I think its fun and outgoing and it really makes you want to stand up and dance!! JoeJ8282
Although I was a young gal and had no clue what this song was truly about, this song was my absolute favorite of all time. Kinda crazy to revisit a lot of Ellies older songs and get hit by nostalgia lol
her most underrated song
Right, along with Starry eyed and The writer
King Calvin Harris and animal, little dreams, and dead in the water!
Dan & Phil agreed :D
Eduardo Prado ikr

No need to slag Ellie Goulding over a lack of research on your own part.
The Red Shadow I have nothing against Ellie Goulding lol she’s great. Just wish pop artists still made their own music:)
So, this is Ellie's best song... Agree?
totally agree
2018 hehe

this song deserves so much more attention it’s really underrated

"I chase your love around a figure 8 I need you more than I can take"This is a masterpiece , You are the best Ellie.
It's a masterpiece by the Goddess of EDM Ellie Goulding ! Pure Bop
Yes that is very true she is my favourite music artist
Yes she is a goddess of her music 🎶 she is amazing
@@vintageprincess.x I've changed my mind. I don't really like Smelly Golding any more. 😢
Brashly assuming that she is the writer of these lyrics, and not somebody else.
This song is beyond addictive.
THIS is the original Ellie Goulding! Halcyon ❤
True :)
Ellie is still original where have you been?
I miss this Ellie :(
Gaabi Reis Ellie is still the same, again have ANY of you bothered to listen to the whole album of Delirium like Aftertaste, Devotion, Army or Lost and Found?

"I'm not obsessed with this song," I say as I press the repeat button for the 5th time in a row ...
same 😂😂
saaaaaammmmmeee
The melody when she sings "way" actually sounds like a figure eight! Dunno if that was intended, and I didn't get the other lyrics, but that's smart!
good catch i just red that on wikipedia i kinda felt like there’s something with her singing it like that but never realized this
This came out a few weeks before my boyfriend killed himself. It described my feelings so well and I listened to it constantly. Still her best in my opinion.

for a guy named lucifer, you're waaaaaaaaaaaayyyy too nice
CakeIsFantastic Am I? I apologize maybe I've been stuck in the cage for to long...
She doesn't have just one tattoo, clearly you never saw the Q&A she did. She has three.
11 years later and I still am blasting this. Halcyon is a truly special album and masterpiece!
Almost 10 years older than I was when I first heard this song and it still hits the same feels 😭
Very original--that's the first time I've seen someone film a video upside down!
it's not filmed like that it's edited upside down

this is probably my favourite Ellie Goulding song!
What about 'The Writer' ? =DD
ASKLsLIFE wow, that is pretty good!
Figure 8 is a kind of knot that can´t be undone. In the song it means Ellie can´t get rid of the love she mentions, and she´s suffering for that
this song was my shit in 2012 omg

Andie Marie trust me😍😍😍

I can almost guarantee that if Ellie re-released this song now, it would blow up.

nice joke
i love you Ellie!💖
who thinks Ellie would be really awsome in a movie? like....any movie at all? 💞
ellie is my
Oh Idk, I guess she didn't feature in fifty shades of gray then.
Jennifer I have that movie and watched it as soon as it came out. She's not featured. Maybe as a cameo but that would only be a few seconds.
As in she's featured in the soundtrack, I wasn't necessarily saying physical appearance/acting
(Weeel idk if that counts though)
Alisya May Webb, me and if I had it, I would buy it and see it already like now. I'm serious, like now.
🎵 so deep. This track is always 🔥
In 2021
This song makes me feel worse about breaks up but I listen to it anyway
I'm so obsessed with this song now! I hear it, and I just want to dance, move like a crazy, and break something !
are you still obsessed with this song 3 year later?
This song has power, still love it.
One of the sexiest voices I've personally heard in music. Doesn't really sound like anyone but herself. Ellie was sick she got sh*t jumping back in the day!
One of the most powerful song of Ellie. The lyrics are crushing, so meaningful
One of her best songs. Don't know why songs like Love Me Like You Do or On My Mind are more famous. This is perfection.
This is gold.
--ding
Its criminal that this didn't chart on the Billboard Hot 100. Same with Easy Lover.
The ending is pure epicness
Always love this woman🔥🔥
Yea, that figure 8 can be an extremely hard figure to break when it comes to love
Absolutely love her voice it's so unique and I wish there was more females who have a slightly raspy voice
