base talk Best Ellie Goulding album?

[jrd30121994]

Curious to hear from y'all which Ellie album stands out as her best work. I've been revisiting her discography and Halcyon IMO has aged like a fine wine chile.

 

thoughts???????

Lights! 

[Bloodflowers.]

Bright Lights closely followed by Halcyon Days

I'm a Delirium stan even though there are some filler tracks. But the highs are HIGH. Also Brightest Blue is underrated.

Halcyon > Lights > Higher than Heaven > Delirium > Brightest Blue

Actually going to say Higher Than Heaven, though she has better songs it's her only album I like front to back.

Halcyon will always have a special place in my heart.

Halycon made me a stan. She was the 3rd popstar I ever stanned (after Britney and Utada) b/c of Lights and Halcyon. The latter is a masterpiece. Her outputs since then have just been disappointing tbh (which made no longer stan her)

I honestly think Ellie's discography is amazing and holds up very well. Like zero bad albums.
But don't quote on that

[JoeAg]

Halcyon for sure, that opening 6 track run was likely her peak lol

[Gladiator]

Man, this is hard. She's one of the very few pop artists who I can say I love every single one of her albums. I think my answer will change on any given day between all of them (except Lights, which I love but I think all her other albums are just better). Currently, I'm gonna say Delirium.

 

Also, I always found it interesting how Brightest Blue seems to be paid dust while Halcyon is regarded by most as her best - I actually think the album most like Halcyon is Brightest Blue so it is surprising to me that particularly people who like Halcyon the most dislike Brightest Blue the most as well.

Halcyon by MILES. It's just so magical

Are people being serious with BB?

Not an easy choice, since she has a flawless underrated discography. But I would go with Bright Lights, stunning and delicious pop record, I adore Starsmith's work, and that statement still stands for her next projects, he just stands out.

 

BL is probably not her most mature album, but a work she must be proud of.

Halcyon > Lights > Delirium > Brightest Blue >> Higher Than Heaven

Lights and Halycon VOL 1. VOL 2 is bad and the moment her artistry was on a decline. Midas Touch, Tesselate and Flashlight are the light on that dismal VOL.
