I want to be safe in the knowledge that I can tour and play festivals for a long time. The main thing is that I want a good reputation as a live performer. If I have that, I'd be so happy.

More quotes by Ellie Goulding
I don't really have a style icon but I really admire the way people dress like Gaga, Rihanna and Gwen Stefani. It's good to be inspired by singers who write music and dress incredibly - rather than models and people in the fashion industry who dress immaculately anyway because it's their style.
Ellie Goulding
I love pink - pink's my favourite. I hardly ever - weirdly - wear it, but I love the colour pink.
Ellie Goulding
I wrote 'Lights' a long, long time ago. And I expected it to be on the album, because it was - I wrote it with 'Biff' Stannard. And he wrote every single Spice Girls song and every single pop song of the 90s, basically. So I thought, you know, I was really lucky to work with him, but I didn't think it would be a big song for some reason.
Ellie Goulding
The only really safe thing to do is to write a diary of where you've been, what time you went to bed, what you ate. If I wrote honestly about everything I think it'd be a disaster. It would cause a lot of trouble.
Ellie Goulding
It's usually a big kind of vent of frustration or anger or sadness that puts me in the right frame of mind to write. It's such a cliche to say that artists write when they're down, but it's true for me. It's a relief to get out what's eating away at my heart or my soul or my head.

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
I'm a bit of a like girly-girl, really, I like flowery stuff.
Ellie Goulding
Not much shocked me. You know, I worked in a home for Alzheimer's patients and my dad used to be really into murders and stuff, so I saw dead bodies. It desensitised me to a lot of things.
Ellie Goulding
It's so important to take vitamins. People always get ill on tour because of the close proximity in the bus with everyone.
Ellie Goulding
There are so many things to think about when you make an album. Like, who am I trying to impress? Am I going to get respect, critical acclaim? Or am I going to sell lots of records?
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
My favourite people to follow on Twitter are... my fans. They make me laugh so much and keep me smiling.

How long will I love you? As long as stars are above you, And longer if I may

Now, if some panic hits me, you have to sort of be friends with your body, it's like your body will work against you.
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
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
Fame doesn't make it hard to date, because I could be seeing someone now and no-one would know. But if you go out with someone who's in the public eye you're asking for trouble. It's double intensity, double scrutiny. Even if I just went on one date with a normal guy, word gets around and that freaks me out. I don't like all that gossipy stuff.
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
You never know what to expect. You don't just walk on and expect an amazing reaction.
