THIS was her peak. after the reissue came out, she started to decline in quality :gaycat7:

Atlantis
Only You
Halcyon
Joy
I Know You Care

 

 

This album takes me back.

I still remember so vividly when it was released and I was watching her perform it.

The more emotional tracks on the album are the ones I prefer, though I also love the more straightforward high energy tracks as well.

 

I also adore Halcyon Days.

Halcyon is low-key the worst song on the album i-

Her best album imo. This album lowkey has made me cry so many tears of both of joy and despair. 'Explosions' was the first song that touched me so deeply from this album. 

 

'My Blood' and 'Atlantis' were always my top 2 faves.

She really hit every mark with this album, taking sounds that were popular back then but still making it emotional, personal, and timeless :jonny5:

 

Honestly still in my top 5 albums ever and it's on heavy rotation every year fall starts again :celestial6:

I prefer Lights, but Ellie really hit the mark with this one. I also feel it is underrecognized as a blueprint for a lot of pop music of the altpop girlies.

Genuinely one of the best albums ever. I'll never get over how emotional this album is, and the ties I have to it.

 

my blood being the modern day hyper ballad
