Dangerous Man 9,245 Posted November 7, 2015 Share Posted November 7, 2015 http://www.metacritic.com/music/delirium/ellie-goulding 72 Pitchfork Nov 5, 2015 While these songs can sometimes evoke other major players in her genre, she makes Max Martin’s signatures feel personal, making a mature pop record that feels like a natural progression. 70 Spin Nov 4, 2015 Finally, she’s embracing the responsibility to provide stone-cold tunes without pretense. 67 Entertainment Weekly Nov 6, 2015 All these songs sound good enough, but the head rush promised by the title never quite arrives. 60 New Musical Express (NME) Nov 4, 2015 There's something disappointing about this, however undeniable the quality of material. 50 Consequence of Sound Nov 6, 2015 Ultimately, chunks of Delirium cement Goulding’s place in our current pop soundscape. However, the album doesn’t fit together as well as, say, 1989 or E-MO-TION. 20 Clash Music Nov 4, 2015 The main problem with this is that her voice is too wispy to hold its own versus the maximalist rave-pop of the day.... On top of this, Delirium just hasn't got the songs. --- 61 metacritic score 6 reviews so far "A little less conversation and a little more touch my body."

manyatyau 262 Posted November 7, 2015 Share Posted November 7, 2015 I'm a bit disappointed too... But there are still good songs. Scream it out is the best thing of the album. Other are Holding on for life, Don't need nobody. Devotion is Okay. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

manyatyau 262 Posted November 7, 2015 Share Posted November 7, 2015 hmm why can't I edit my reply?? This is my full review of the album... The album is full of basic radio song. On my mind, Something in the way you move, Winner, Code, etc. Those are some basic tune. Get bored after the first listen, One more draw back of the album is the similarity of her song. Army sounds like JOY. Keep on Dancin sounds so much like Kesha's Love into The Light. Lost and found would be something from Bright Light. Aftertaste is probably the Goodness Gracious of Delirium. But there are still good songs. Scream it out is the best thing of the album. Other are. Holding on for life, and Don't need nobody. Devotion is Okay. Overall, I'm a bit disappointed. But is there a chance for ellie to add song and re-package the album, like Bright light and Halcyon Days, even after the album has already had 22songs? Hmm..

Klou 2,414 Posted November 7, 2015 Share Posted November 7, 2015 That Clash review is such an insult. It's a great album and better not get below 60 or I'll hurt someone. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cpeer 3,491 Posted November 7, 2015 Share Posted November 7, 2015 I played the album on Spotify, and I like it, for me she went too pop( i would liked that she had some more electro sound) and has the basic structure of songs , feels like she got limited or told how to write her songs, her lyrics are sometimes really good but most of the album has basic lyrics. But still you can feel Ellie Goulding thru the album, she still got her signature lyrics and singing I would give her 70/100 Btw my faves are : Paradise , Holding for life and Scream it out Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dominic 11,922 Posted November 10, 2015 Share Posted November 10, 2015 It's a solid album, definitely more pop than her previous but still maintains the uniqueness. It seems Codes is a big favourite but personally I'm all about Scream It Out, it's easily the best on the album and could definitely get her a #1. Codes seems a little too kiddy bop for my liking. The hardest thing in this world is to live in it Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
