Ellie Goulding – Brightest Blue. An exclusive live performance for Vevo.
You could spot it from the get-go. Listening to Ellie Goulding’s 2010 debut ‘Lights,’ and watching her move through initial vids such as “Guns and Horses” and “Starry Eyed,” it was obvious that the UK singer was going to connect deeply with fans around the world. The fact that ‘Lights’ clocked in at the top of the UK pop charts was proof that listeners found it irresistible. Ellie’s success has unfolded wonderfully, of course, and after a decade of hits – including “Love Me Like You Do,” “Anything Could Happen,” “I Need Your Love” and more – she has just released the album she calls “closest to my heart.” ‘Brightest Blue’ is divided into two sections, the title suite, which she says has “a sense of accepting fate, and therefore feeling better for it and not worrying about the future,” and the EG.o section, which presents an “alter ego” who takes on the world and has “no fear whatsoever.” Our Original Live Performances of the new songs are splendid looks into to Ellie’s current world. “New Heights” and “Brightest Blue” were shot with the remarkable XR “mixed reality” technology, which seamlessly mixes actual camera footage with CGI content in real time. The visuals are remarkable. Check out her new record, share our performances and see where Ellie’s at right now.

Lyrics
Everything is heightened now
It’s looking so much brighter now
I was lost and now I’m found
Fell off the merry-go-round
I was in the politics
Obsessed with things I couldn’t fix
Kissing bigger with a fist
Addicted to the thrill of it
And with these colours fading
People changing feelings
Faking some kind of love
A different flavour, seek the danger
Feel new life rush into my blood
Illuminated never shaded
See the future when I look in the sky
When I look in the sky, you give me
You give me
The brightest blue, the brightest blue
Tonight give me the brightest blue
The brightest blue, so bright
There’s no blue in the odyssey
Even in the calmest seas
Now it’s all I wanna be
A semi-precious mystery
Yeah I love me more than you
Doesn’t mean I can’t be true
Slip into the blue lagoons
I could be your muse
Times are hard, people scarred
We don’t know if we’re gonna fight
Break a heart, play the card,
We just came along for the ride
But in the dark, you’re the spark
See the future when I look in your eyes
‘cos you’ve given me, you give me
You give me
The brightest blue, the brightest blue
Tonight give me the brightest blue
The brightest blue, so bright
Don’t you worry about the future,
‘cos this is the blue evolution
I don’t think this love’s an illusion
So let’s wake up
Don’t you worry about the future
‘cos this is the blue evolution
I finally see you’re my greatest
You’re my greatest revelation
The brightest blue, the brightest blue
Tonight give me the brightest blue
The brightest blue, so bright
