The video is perfect! I've always thought her a bit manly faced but she looks quite sexy in this and nice to see her move loads too. Fantastic song, wish she'd performed it on DOI last night or was getting a BRITS slot :(

The video has it's good points and it's bad points. As a fifth release I'm not overly fussed, I just hope it sells well!

I never really liked Ellie Goulding apart from "Your Song" - but I really like this song - her best single to date I would say!

Was on Alan Carr - sounded awful - her live vocal was fighting a losing battle against the backing track. :-?

It was hardly awful but it wasn't her best, she sang a harmony instead of the higher melody of the chorus. Shame!

Enters UK top 100 at 91. Looks like it's not actually gonna get a single release so that will probably be the peak. :-?

She does that with her "The Writer" performances.

Her voice is so incredibly small that it just doesn't work in a lot of her live performances.

Gutted this isn't gonna do well, I thought after "Your Song" she'd be able to squeeze another hit out of the album re-issue but it seems she's not promoting it or anything.

Finally out - yet it's being eclipsed by that rubbish Tempah duet. :-?

On iTunes, album version dropped badly from top 50 to 74. Single debuts in top 500. :-?
