I still don't know if I can write songs. I don't think anyone ever knows if they can write songs.

More quotes by Ellie Goulding
My hairdresser in the U.K., Adam Reed, has his own line, Percy and Reed, and it's really good. And I use Moroccan Oil and Kerastase as well.
Ellie Goulding
Every day I'd say I look different. Sometimes I look really formal, sometimes I love the classic Stella McCartney, Chloe Sevigny and Gwyneth Paltrow thing. Other days I like being rock star and wearing leather jackets and studs. I love wearing Burberry - it's the perfect combination of formal and punky.
Ellie Goulding
I'm never happy with my face, my hair, I haven't really got any boobs and I'm not really that tall.
Ellie Goulding
I never remember having a plan. All I could think about was how I was going to afford to get into college or where I was going to stay because I hated being at home. I didn't really have time to think about anything in the future. I didn't think about a career or anything. I went to uni, got a couple of jobs, so I sort of funded it myself.
Ellie Goulding
I take inspiration from everything around me, also relationships and friends. And the inside of my crazy head.
Ellie Goulding
Christmas in L.A. is weird. There's no snow. It's not even cold.
Ellie Goulding
Drake, I'd like to collaborate with. He's a phenomenal lyricist. Probably the best rapper in the world at the moment. I love Kanye but there's something about Drake he's more straight up, really clever and really poetic and metaphorical - I love that. He's just clever.
Ellie Goulding
The very first song I wrote was about a boy that I was obsessed with.
Ellie Goulding
I record stuff all the time, like little vocal things. I write random things down... Sometimes I just get things stuck in my head and I record them, and that actually becomes a song quite a lot of the time.
Ellie Goulding
Even if a relationship doesn't work out, you can always take something positive from something negative. You never know what's around the corner.
Ellie Goulding
When I heard Bjork's debut, that was when I first realized that I could be a singer, even with my unusual voice.
Ellie Goulding
The nature of how we are as human beings is that we're much more interested in being critical rather than praising something.
Ellie Goulding
Ever since I've been young I've been fascinated by the human body. I've written songs about it, but you can become quite morbid if you think about it too much - paranoid and a hypochondriac.
Ellie Goulding
I guess I'm just quite observant and I pay attention to a lot of things. Human behavior really fascinates me.
Ellie Goulding
Every so often I'll go back down to earth and I'll make reference to a phone or a house or something, something that's a bit more real. But I suppose what that does, is it puts you in a surreal place but also my music doesn't get too carried away in that sense, which I quite like.
Ellie Goulding
When you reach a point of no return with someone and you feel there's going to be no reconciliation, you have to disconnect. I can't allow myself to be emotionally connected with people like that again, it's too damaging.
Ellie Goulding
Apparently I'm introspective... levelheaded... but at the same time, absolutely insane.
Ellie Goulding
I've watched and learnt from DJs and remixers and paid way more attention to how I want my voice to sound. Before, as long as it was loud and in tune it was fine. I've discovered the difference made by various microphones and effects, so each track has a different vocal sound, my voice is woven into everything and it's above everything.
Ellie Goulding
I believe that when you have fans, they invest in you not just as a singer but as a person as well. It's not enough to just have good songs and a good voice.
Ellie Goulding
If a hundred people want autographs, sometimes you have to say no because you've got to get up for a 4 A.M. flight or something. In that sense, it really pisses me off when people think you've become a diva. It's not becoming a diva, it's because of the situation, I think.
