E is for: 'Explosions' by Ellie Goulding


This week's song is Explosions, another amazing song by Ellie Goulding from her recent album 'Halcyon Days'. 

I stumbled across this song soon after hearing 'Anything Could Happen', when I heard the song on the music challenge.The beginning of the song caught me and made me listed straight away. It's not really something that you I'm used to hearing but it worked perfectly with the song.

As the song progressed and I listened to the lyrics it wasn't really long until I fell in love with it. The bridge section of the song has to be my favourite song because of all the imagery I get in my head. All I can imagine is this beautiful kingdom that is being destroyed by these floods and then all this glass just showering on them as they watch it and she knows she has to go. 

Feel free to leave your thoughts and comments, on the song, below.

Music Challenge: A is for 'Anything Could Happen' by Ellie Goulding

So, every week I’m going to be posting a music video or some lyrics with a title of a song beginning with a letter of the alphabet until I get to the end.





This week’s song is Anything Could Happen by Ellie Goulding.

I've been in love with this song ever since it first came out. Whenever I listen to this song I always think that no matter what’s going on in your life, things can get better and you never know what’s going to be around the corner. That sometimes we let these bad things get to us and let them rule over our lives like we need it to but then something happens and it completely changes our view on it.

The lyric that really gets to me throughout the whole song is when it goes, “I’ll give you everything you need, but I don’t think I need you.” It’s like she’s finally letting go of someone who held her back no matter what she could do for someone and, personally, I find that part inspiring on it’s on. It just makes me feel as though it’s okay to admit that you don’t need a person in your life anymore.
