I feel like I write songs for the future or something. Not in an arrogant way, but I feel like maybe my songs were, like, before their time or something. – Ellie Goulding
Im quite private. And I never wanted to be the biggest star in the world, really. So in that sense Ive got a good balance of doing great shows, of making an appearance every now and then and writing music, and I dont really have to do much else. – Ellie Goulding
I Know You Care is really personal and fragile for me. For me, its about losing a family member and also about a breakup. Its about this idea of losing someone for good. – Ellie Goulding
Its usually a big kind of vent of frustration or anger or sadness that puts me in the right frame of mind to write. Its such a cliche to say that artists write when theyre down, but its true for me. Its a relief to get out whats eating away at my heart or my soul or my head. – Ellie Goulding
