Starry Eyed

This is one of my favourite Ellie Goulding songs, love it!!

As to what it's about, I read an interview with Ellie the other day and she said this:

"It's about letting go. As opposed to all the sad and depressing things I write about, I decided to write something about the joining together of people in some kind of euphoric state - be it at a festival, at a show or in a club. I wanted a song that would reach out to people of every background and every enjoyment, whether you enjoy a natural high, taking drugs, drinking or whatever. Because I'm essentially a pop artist I wanted to write a song that everyone can relate to."

I can't help but to dance this everytime it comes on. I'm laying on my side in my bed trying to move my hips and my brother just walked in and was like, "What are you doing???"

She went from childhood ("handle bars") to falling in and out of "love" -- and then she meets him. And everything else was nothing, because when they touch, there are fireworks in the sky and it's like lightning has hit her.

I think this pretty accurately depicts true first love that transforms your whole world. You see everything with rose-tinted glasses ("everybody's starry eyed") and you've got that love energy making you glow ("my body glows").

This is what people talk about when they say "it's better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all," except after you've had a love like this, you're not sure you agree, because it's been five years and sometimes you still think about them, even though you're over them and have moved on.

Yeah sounds like a bunch of people rolling on E at a dance party, why else would people be "starry eyed"?

brilliant song. she's going to be sooo big this year.

This song is actually about physical attraction to the opposite sex, noting to do will love just physical attraction. She said this in an interview that you can find on her vevo page on youtube.

I'm pretty sure this song is about having sex or some type of intimate encounter with someone you're really really into. I wouldn't say the relationship is serious, but based more in the moment and that "love at first sight" physical attraction.

It's really catchy though. Ellie Goulding is going to be the next big indie thing.

I'm pretty sure it's "everybody glows", not "everybody goes".

Anyway, brilliant song. Love it.

MI'M pretty sure this bout th feects of e not only is the video trippy but eveybody is starry eyed n bursting with colors etc great song while rolling n watching da music video as well
