Ellie Goulding - On My Mind(#ad)
Coming off the success of “Love Me Like You Do”, English pop singer and songwriter Ellie Goulding released another single in 2015.
Her new single “On My Mind” was scheduled to be dropped earlier in the year, however with the stupendous commercial success of “Love Me Like You Do”, used in soundtrack of 50 Shades of Grey (no escaping that in 2015), the release of “On My Mind” was tactically pushed.
The single, which Goulding co-wrote, is the lead track for her third studio album Delirium.
Catchy with it's electropop up-tempo, “On My Mind” became a top-10 hit in the UK & 6 other countries, whilst entering the top 20 in 7 other countries. It peaked at #13 on the Billboard Hot 100.
The song reached 10 Milion plays on Spotify 10 days after the release and has sold almost 2 Million units till date.
Goulding has ostensibly denied that the song is an answer to Ed Sheeran’s “Don’t”. Though similar references abound in both the songs and a rumour that Goulding had a short-lived relationship with Sheeran, she has denied any such hook-up.
In an interview with iHeartRadio, Ellie explains how the song came about: "I think one day,we were at the Max Martin compound, and we were just randomly talking about having somebody on your mind that shouldn't necessarily be on your mind.
And you can't figure it out why they're still there. Then I talked to friends about it, and I realized it was quite a common thing.
Just having this strange situation of not necessarily being with that person anymore, but them still being around for whatever reason; and then just kind of trying to figure out why. So I think that song was the figuring out of why."
The music video, directed by Emil Nava, reached a million views in less than 24 hours. It is a “Thelma and Louise” hit Las Vegas on horses storyline! Goulding’s ‘Thelma’ is played by the director’s girlfriend.
Ellie Goulding - On My Mind – Lyrics
Release Date - September 17th,2015
Album - Delirium
It's a little dirty how the whole thing started
I don't even really know what you intended
Thought that you were cute and you could make me jealous
Poured it down, so I poured it down
Next thing that I know I'm in the hotel with you
You were talking deep like it was mad love to you
You wanted my heart but I just liked your tattoos
Poured it down, so I poured it down
And now I don't understand it
You don't mess with love you mess with the truth
And I know I shouldn't say it
But my heart don't understand
Why I got you on my mind
Why I got you on my mind
Why I got you on my mind
Why I got you on my mind
But my heart don't understand
Why I got you on my mind
Why I got you on my mind
Why I got you on my mind
Why I got you on my mind
I always hear, always hear them talking
Talking 'bout a girl, 'bout a girl with money
Saying that I hurt you but I still don't get it
You didn't love me, no, not really
Wait, I could have really liked you
I'll bet, I'll bet that's why I keep thinking about you
It's a shame, you said I was good
So I poured it down, so I poured it down
And now I don't understand it
You don't mess with love you mess with the truth
And I know I shouldn't say it
But my heart don't understand
Why I got you on my mind
Why I got you on my mind
Why I got you on my mind
Why I got you on my mind
But my heart don't understand
Why I got you on my mind
You think you know somebody
Why I got you on my mind
You think you know somebody
Why I got you on my mind
You think you know somebody
Why I got you on my mind
You got yourself in a dangerous zone
Cause we both have the fear, fear of being alone
And now I don't understand it
You don't mess with love you mess with the truth
And my heart don't understand it, understand it, understand it
Why I got you on my mind
You think you know somebody
Why I got you on my mind
You think you know somebody
Why I got you on my mind
You think you know somebody
Why I got you on my mind
But my heart don't understand
Why I got you on my mind
You think you know somebody
Why I got you on my mind
You think you know somebody
Why I got you on my mind
You think you know somebody
Why I got you on my mind
But my heart don't understand
Why I got you on my mind
You think you know somebody
Why I got you on my mind
You think you know somebody
Why I got you on my mind
You think you know somebody
Why I got you on my mind
Uh, uh, uh, uh
