I tend to write things and review it afterwards and realise what comes out. I very rarely ever write something and have to take it back.

More quotes by 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
I start really missing London when I go away. I have a little flat, but very central. I live above a pub and you'd think it'd be a nightmare, but I like hearing the music and it's quite comforting.
Ellie Goulding
I've just become quite fixated on the idea of calmness and peacefulness somewhere, someday.
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
I wish I could have hung out with Patti Smith in the seventies, and also have some crazy times.
Ellie Goulding
I got a random tattoo the other day. It's a red triangle, which makes everyone think I'm arty, which I'm not. I used to draw red triangles all the time. It must mean something - maybe I don't know it yet. But I'll figure it out.
Ellie Goulding
I never thought that I could make a living out of my voice, to be completely honest. I thought that I could probably keep playing pubs. And it was exciting for me to get even just a pub gig in my town or country, when I went to university.
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
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
You can be the happiest you can be in a relationship but can have an urge to be with someone else. I know a lot of people that it has happened to.
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
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
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
You never know what to expect. You don't just walk on and expect an amazing reaction.
Ellie Goulding
I believe in the moment of things and fate and things happening for a reason, so I write things down and I trust it.
Ellie Goulding
I kind of just want to get to know people and I have a genuine interest in people that listen to my music. I've just always felt like that. I think it's from the days of playing guitar to a few people and being very conversational and very intimate and I've always wanted to keep that vibe.
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
I'm obsessed with the countryside: woods, forests, fields, lakes, mountains. I'm really into folk music and folklore. But more so I'm into electronic music. I'm into bands that have both aspects, like Boards of Canada is a perfect example. You could listen to that type of music running through a woods. It's kind of what I wanted to achieve.
Ellie Goulding
I guess I started running when I was about 18 and... I feel like it assists my creativity a bit because it completely just flushes everything out.
