To the 1% that reads this: Kygo is such a big inspiration to me, he is one of the main reasons why I started producing music and I'm hoping to be as successful as him one day, it would be a dream come true. To everyone reading this, God bless you and your family. May you achieve what you aspire and may all your dreams come true as well.
My theory is: Just like the 'It Ain't Me' video, this video changes our perception of the song. When we hear "We were lovers for the first time", we instantly think a couple, but they're actually referring to siblings who were best friends. Notice how the lyrics says "WE were young, but now I'M older"? She was the older sister who took care good care of him, but after she died, he remained stuck in the past (hence why it's not 'we're older'). Her spirit watches him from a distance. He doesn't know how to do things on his own. He relied on her so much. If you look closely, as she starts to die, his hands start to go on fire showing that her guiding hands are no longer there with him, and he's left to learn on his own. As we see him try to live, the fire keeps consuming him. He misses her dearly but feels he can't do things on his own. This is why we see him struggling, and why we see him trying to make memorable items with the ashes. Every time he 'dies' (not actually, but symbolic of a mental breakdown and wanting to just give up completely)... he gets back up again and 'does it all again' and he gets stronger each time. This is why you can see ash outlines of him all over the place on the floor from the many times he's given up, but got up and tried again. We then see him older and he's finally able to play the piano. We can see the flames on his hands have stopped... he's at peace and he's stronger. Instead of consuming himself in the memories, he's living his life with the people currently in his life (his Mom in the car, his friends in the field, his crush on the bridge, etc.) all while keeping his memories of his sister. Making her proud. He's finally at peace with himself, and this is why we see him in the field of flowers like her. The moral of the story is no matter how stormy and rough life gets, get up and keep trying... Don't lose hope. :)
Indeed she is. I don't know whether I'm high or its my deviant mind, but I cant get the uncanny resemble to Adult star Sheena Shaw out of my head! Good song though.
I guess Kygo wanted a very special and unique voice for this song, since it is very emotional and personal, and he definitely did the right choice by picking Ellie Goulding, she has such a beautiful, amazing, unique voice!.
It's calm in a way that it takes you back to those great moments lost & you're just there looking back wishing you have it all back.. I keep it on replay whenever I listen to this song
We were lovers for the first time Running all the red lights The middle finger was our peace sign, yeah We were sipping on emotions Smoking and inhaling every moment It was reckless and we owned it, yeah, yeah We were high and we were sober We were under, we were over We were young and now I'm older But I'd do it all again Getting drunk on a train track Way back, when we tried our first cigarettes (oh) Ten dollars was a fat stack I'd do it all again (oh) Bomber jacket and a snapback Your dad's black Honda was a Maybach (oh) "Re: Stacks" on the playback I'd do it all again (oh) We were lovers on a wild ride Speeding for the finish line Come until the end of our time, yeah Started off as a wildfire Burning down the bridges to our empire Our love was something they could admire, yeah, yeah We were high and we were sober We were under, we were over We were young and now I'm older But I'd do it all again Getting drunk on a train track Way back, when we tried our first cigarettes (oh) Ten dollars was a fat stack I'd do it all again (oh) Bomber jacket and a snapback Your dad's black Honda was a Maybach (oh) "Re: Stacks" on the playback I'd do it all again (oh) Stack stack, stack stack, oh oh Speed speed, speed speed oh oh Stack stack, stack stack, oh oh Speed speed, speed speed oh oh Stack stack, stack stack, oh oh Speed speed, speed speed oh oh Stack stack, stack stack, oh oh Speed speed, speed speed oh oh Stack stack, stack stack, oh oh
This was such amazing project to be a part of! Thank you so much for this opportunity! You both were so humble and cool, and I made so many amazing friends! (I was playing the sister, fyi). Best two days of my life!
+ Allison Rederick Seriously ma'am? Wow , what a great performance. I couldn't believe it. Loved to see you in the video. And btw, was the video shot in only 2 days?
Yeah totally! Matthew left a lot of the plot up to our perception, but here is what I was told. I'm Kygo's sister, but I die from cancer when he was a child. Because of the pain, he begins burning from the inside out. He creates sculptures based off of things I taught him when I was around. He eventually burns himself up. Matthew wanted to leave the role Ellie plays up to our imaginations. However, he did hint that she could be playing our deceased mother, me as a spirit, or death itself. Art is really up to the viewers perception!
at 0:32 is when kygo was young, 0:36 is when his sister was teaching him the piano, 0:44 is when he finds out his sister is obviously sick and dying, 0:54 is when he realizes he has this ability to conjure fire with his anger and sadness, at 1:15 he starts dreaming he is dying by burning up and at 1:22 he is in a heaven (or what ever you believe in after you die) he wakes up and lives on longer, 1:29 is the next part of his life when hes a older teenager, 1:44 he has a fight and it brings back his anger and sadness and thinks he kills himself by dying of his fire, 1:52 is where he is again back in that place (where ever you go when you die) 2:01 is the next era in his life, 2:04 is where the boat is meaning he wanted to travel with his sister, and from there on it shows his past and future life to wheres back at that place where you die, he was alone cause it was only him and his sister and dad, his dad died and all his sadness and anger comes back and he couldnt deal with it so he ends up dying, plot twist his sister didnt die but it was too late
I was listening to this masterpiece 4 years back, whenever I felt low kygo’s music held me up, I feel nostalgic listening to this song , miss those teenage days of fun and happiness , stay safe everyone ❤️
Kygo song's have this different kind of vibe, like chilling on the rooftop with your cousins or friends. The drops are not loud, it's like it calms you. You guys get it? 😂😂
@Sherlock Whole mess Kygo's songs have changed a lot recently. I feel like it's a lot more focused on pop right now. I miss the good old Kygo's Tropical House so much :/
Here you are [Verse 1] We were lovers for the first time Running all the red lights The middle finger was our peace sign, yeah We were sipping on emotions Smoking and inhaling every moment It was reckless and we owned it, yeah, yeah [Pre-Chorus] We were high and we were sober We were on and we were over We were young and now I'm older But I'd do it all again [Chorus] Getting drunk on a train track Way back, when we tried our first cigarettes (oh) Ten dollars was a fat stack I'd do it all again (oh) Bomber jacket and a snapback Your dad's black Honda was a Maybach (oh) "Re: Stacks" on the playback I'd do it all again (oh) [Verse 2] We were lovers on a wild ride Speeding for the finish line Come until the end of our time, yeah Started off as a wildfire Burning down the bridges to our empire Our love was something they could admire, yeah, yeah
Everytime I listen to this, I feel like it's summer and I'm laying on the cool beach and my little toes are snuggled under the soft, warm sand, then the song finishes and all I hear is pouring rain.
i used to listen this back when it was released 5 years ago. coming back, i remember all the lyrics. i really used to watch this on repeat back then because of the mv. feels good.
This song is about Ellie Goulding reminiscing about a past lover/ friend/companion who passed away. This can be inferred by the " WE were young ,now I'M OLDER" Here it implies that the singer's lover is gone and will not age and experience the world like her- so she reminisce about their past days.
hey kygo. you may never read my comment but i what to talk to you honestly. im an african kid who tried to live his dream to be a music producer juste like you. the place where i come from nobody know tropical house. but your music as changed my life. so thank you kygo. god bless you from an african kid
finally get the meaning! his hands are on fire because everything he touches tht she enjoyed reminds him of her and makes him sad and hes building sculptures because hes using thepain and frustration and turning it into something beautiful
It hits extra hard when you are almost 30 and so many people stayed teens. I am starting to wrinkle and still go to vent to someone who’s just a photo on my wall or pixels on a screen now.
tenczowa wike Yes! La Musica Electronica Es lo Mejor Que Hay ! Tiene las mejores Letras +Voz + videos + Sonidos y el Reggaetoon tiene desnudo , sexo y las peores letras en los videos! i love music electronic Forever ♡♡♡
Everytime I listen to this, It reminds me of my Dead Best Friend. I was with him when I heard it for first time. But now I'm all alone, he's gone.... It's been almost 3 years since he has left me. Always gonna miss you buddy. See you on the other side. ❤️😢😢
So saaad!! Omg, i got into fight with my best friend, and i dont talk to her for a long ago, the memories still are with me and i kinda miss her but we cant change what happened, stay strong, we all have lost something special. Im lucky that i have another best friend. Stay strong i hope you all the best.
so i guess the story is they were brother and sister but unfortunately she died. He draws to remember but sometimes it's better to let go as his memories are eating him away in the flames. In the end, he is dying or died as his flames go out but his sister, who is ellie, starts his flames again and brings him back to life. In the end of the video, he is leaving which means he is letting go.......well that's what i got from this....correct me if i am wrong EDIT (to those bringing up the lyrics in my comments): I just wanted to come back here and say that I am basing this on my interpretation of the video itself and not on the lyrics as they are two different things. Sometimes artists make music videos that are completely unrelated to the lyrics so yeah she might have said lovers in the lyrics but it doesn't necessarily mean that they thus HAVE to be lovers in the music video. From what I see, it makes more sense to interpret them as siblings when looking at the visuals in the video
The story I think: Kygo and Ellie are brothers and sisters, but the sister was diagnosed with a deadly disease and she died. The brother started to have abilities to burn everything to release his anger and sadness. In the end, he burned himself, to look for his sister. The sister knew what he did and came back.
Robin Kuiper he was listening... you dont need to look to know whats happening... creating things was his way to cope and he learnt how to use his power in his favor thou sometimes he burned himself even more than expected
Robin Kuiper I believe it has something to so with a Phoenix. from Ashes rises a new bird. The fire is a symbol for grief that consumes him. As it spreads across his body, his grief grows and he makes relics in order to remember a time when he was with his sister. This is him coping with her dead and his stages of grief. Finally when the fire consumes him and he is nothing but ashes, he can be born anew.
I accidentally found this song 2 years ago. As usual played it on loop! Thought i'd get over it as all songs. Here i am 2 years later, still love it! It's the music
Lyrics :-) We were lovers for the first time Running all the red lights The middle finger was our peace sign, yeah We were sipping on emotions Smoking and inhaling every moment It was reckless and we owned it, yeah, yeah We were high and we were sober We were on and we were over We were young and now I'm older But I'd do it all again Getting drunk on a train track Way back, when we tried our first cigarettes (oh) Ten dollars was a fat stack I'd do it all again (oh) Bomber jacket and a snapback Your dad's black Honda was a Maybach (oh) "Re: Stacks" on the playback I'd do it all again (oh) We were lovers on a wild ride Speeding for the finish line Come until the end of our time, yeah Started off as a wildfire Burning down the bridges to our empire Our love was something they could admire, yeah, yeah We were high and we were sober We were on and we were over We were young and now I'm older But I'd do it all again Getting drunk on a train track Way back, when we tried our first cigarettes (oh) Ten dollars was a fat stack I'd do it all again (oh) Bomber jacket and a snapback Your dad's black Honda was a Maybach (oh) Re: Stacks on the playback I'd do it all again (oh) Stack stack, stack stack, oh oh... Speed speed, speed speed oh oh... Stack stack, stack stack, oh oh... Stack stack, stack stack, oh oh... Stack stack, stack stack, oh oh... Speed speed, speed speed oh oh... Stack stack, stack stack, oh oh... Stack stack, stack stack, oh oh... Stack stack, stack stack, oh oh... Speed speed, speed speed oh oh... Stack stack, stack stack, oh oh... Stack stack, stack stack...
Sometimes I think about her voice. Like how is she so blessed with an angelic voice? Is there an autotune embedded within her vocal cords or something?
The burning and getting rebirth again is a similar concept to the burning of the Phoenix ..and the burning is somehow connected to his feelings , Whenever he’s sad or upset he starts to burn and die and rebirth again . the girl in the beginning is either his sister or someone he fell in love with and Ellie is her ghost watching him and she’s always wandering in that flower field (afterlife) so he was always trying to Remember those memories that makes him sad or angry so he could burn and die and starts to search for her He was willing to die a hundred times so he could find her in the after life ( flower field) the boys that were wandering around the field is all actually him but different timelines.
It's cool to have an artist that you can interpret and deconstruct the work of......I had that with Morrissey in my teens and early adult years. It's important to have artists like that at that age.....it works your brain out, and the reward is you become more insightful with every theory you hash out....
I absolutely love Ellie Goulding's music she really needs to come out with some new stuff soon or a new album would be absolutely amazing! Keep doing your thing Ellie Goulding I love your music anything you're featured on or even anything like that your voice is amazing and you can tell it's always you! Keep being a good artist. I love music and it's such a good way to connect.
She already released a new album Brightest Blue being her most personal album yet with classical masterpieces. And recently she became a new mum, but confirmed that she is going to release new EDM album soon.
What I came up with: the sister died young...the boy kind of shut down and have anger management. He grew up but he distant himself from his dad and can't relate to other people..he still stuck with the past and his own anger. Everytime he is sad and angry he thinks of his sister again cause it's the best memory...and all the dream they'd share. All those boys in the field represent the boy in each stage of his life. From a little boy to adulthood.
I know it's only been 2 years since the song was released but I can already feel the nostalgia. Does this every happen to you, that you hear a song, for the first time, or you hear that song in that one event, and then you don't hear that song in a long time, and when you hear that song again again, it reminds you of that event? Cause I do 😊🤗🙂😌😢 (*And no it doesn't have to be this song, it can be any song*)
My new album Kygo is available June 21st! Pre-save now: kygo.lnk.to/kygothealbum

Good song though.
I guess Kygo wanted a very special and unique voice for this song, since it is very emotional and personal, and he definitely did the right choice by picking Ellie Goulding, she has such a beautiful, amazing, unique voice!.
Fragile As Glass absolutely!!! Couldn't agree more
I definitely agree!!
I agree
i actually disagree
he could've got someone better than her
I think Ellie's voice is only good when it's backed by electronic music. Listening to her live is atrocious.
One of the greatest collaborations, this song is truly a masterpiece crafted by Kygo🔥
Right
Agreed!
*When we see "Kygo" in the title,we can be sure it's gonna be a masterpiece!!❤*
Oh yeah !
No masterpiece
Yes!
Yeah but she's ellie goulding....
Maybe I,m old xd xd

no sex
no drugs
no nude
thank you god for real electronic music.
Leandro Goncalves Coelho that's Miley Cyrus but she changed
nice
not yet bruh 😂
Leandro Goncalves Coelho why are those things bad? Except for drugs they're all apart of life and artists should be able to express their sexuality
I know those are all good things that you just listed but man sex,drugs,other shit you mentioned doesn't necessarily make a song bad.
It's calm in a way that it takes you back to those great moments lost & you're just there looking back wishing you have it all back.. I keep it on replay whenever I listen to this song
It's like a throwback for us
I can't believe this hasn't reached a billion views
@-Pretty- -Boah- Definitely +1
No
@enamul PHP this song deserve 1 billion ok😆
So close yet so far.

We were lovers for the first time
Running all the red lights
The middle finger was our peace sign, yeah
We were sipping on emotions
Smoking and inhaling every moment
It was reckless and we owned it, yeah, yeah
We were high and we were sober
We were under, we were over
We were young and now I'm older
But I'd do it all again
Getting drunk on a train track
Way back, when we tried our first cigarettes (oh)
Ten dollars was a fat stack
I'd do it all again (oh)
Bomber jacket and a snapback
Your dad's black Honda was a Maybach (oh)
"Re: Stacks" on the playback
I'd do it all again (oh)
We were lovers on a wild ride
Speeding for the finish line
Come until the end of our time, yeah
Started off as a wildfire
Burning down the bridges to our empire
Our love was something they could admire, yeah, yeah
We were high and we were sober
We were under, we were over

What a voice Ellie . Make you think about this beautiful world 😊
Hello
Definitely huge track again by Kygo
lol
Definitely this is "old" song
Old?
Why old ????
Lily Records by Ellie too don't forget her
This song is about Ellie Goulding reminiscing about a past lover/ friend/companion who passed away.
This can be inferred by the " WE were young ,now I'M OLDER" Here it implies that the singer's lover is gone and will not age and experience the world like her- so she reminisce about their past days.
Why this music isn't famous yet?!
I know right this should have exploded
Ace
hey kygo. you may never read my comment but i what to talk to you honestly. im an african kid who tried to live his dream to be a music producer juste like you. the place where i come from nobody know tropical house. but your music as changed my life. so thank you kygo. god bless you from an african kid

yep kygo mixed ellie's voice to make it sound different and its the best part of the song
sounds very similar to Kygo's It Ain't me (The Bowery, whiskey neat, grateful, I'm so grateful)
Probably the worst part for me. Few seconds bevore the drop is the reason why i am here.
Jani may favourite part is 2:00
And 2:10
I'm Japanese.
I can't understand English perfectly but can understand her voice always mekes me pure😊
“We were young and now I’m older” - that hits hard when you don’t want to grow up
It hits extra hard when you are almost 30 and so many people stayed teens. I am starting to wrinkle and still go to vent to someone who’s just a photo on my wall or pixels on a screen now.

*We were high* and we were sober *Getting drunk* on the train track
Back of a Honda - sex
Smoking first cig - drugs (nicotine is a drug)
Drinking - getting drunk on the train tracks ! Are you unable to hear lyrics
Everytime I listen to this, It reminds me of my Dead Best Friend. I was with him when I heard it for first time. But now I'm all alone, he's gone.... It's been almost 3 years since he has left me.
Always gonna miss you buddy.
See you on the other side. ❤️😢😢
So saaad!! Omg, i got into fight with my best friend, and i dont talk to her for a long ago, the memories still are with me and i kinda miss her but we cant change what happened, stay strong, we all have lost something special. Im lucky that i have another best friend. Stay strong i hope you all the best.
Ellie you voice is so beautiful I had fallen in love with your voice!

Hey Jelena Antevski what?
This song makes me feel so nostalgic of memories I don't even have.
Only true Kygo fans know this is the third song he has released this year
His first song was "Cruise"
José Cervantes Pérez г
Fifty shades of darker OST
THANKS! I love Kygo's music, and I didn't knew he released a song for Fifty Shades Darker! hahhaha
José Cervantes Pérez I thought it was Firestone (his 1st song)
the middle finger was our peace sign,yeah
~~~~~~
This song is underservedly underrated!!! Should've reached a billion.
@Sølo Noob you're right
so i guess the story is they were brother and sister but unfortunately she died. He draws to remember but sometimes it's better to let go as his memories are eating him away in the flames. In the end, he is dying or died as his flames go out but his sister, who is ellie, starts his flames again and brings him back to life. In the end of the video, he is leaving which means he is letting go.......well that's what i got from this....correct me if i am wrong
EDIT (to those bringing up the lyrics in my comments): I just wanted to come back here and say that I am basing this on my interpretation of the video itself and not on the lyrics as they are two different things. Sometimes artists make music videos that are completely unrelated to the lyrics so yeah she might have said lovers in the lyrics but it doesn't necessarily mean that they thus HAVE to be lovers in the music video. From what I see, it makes more sense to interpret them as siblings when looking at the visuals in the video
Sara E. Great explanation , fully agree with you👍👍
Close, but they were lovers.
This is correct! Check my comment for the full description :)
I thought they all got greyscale and turned into stone men. . .but then I realized that it wasn't game of thrones. . .
I thought the kid was consumed by his loss and his art was the only way to really express it and maybe have peace of mind.
The story I think: Kygo and Ellie are brothers and sisters, but the sister was diagnosed with a deadly disease and she died. The brother started to have abilities to burn everything to release his anger and sadness. In the end, he burned himself, to look for his sister. The sister knew what he did and came back.
Amazing
Y Li such good observation of the video !!! this makes so much sense .
Robin Kuiper he was listening... you dont need to look to know whats happening... creating things was his way to cope and he learnt how to use his power in his favor thou sometimes he burned himself even more than expected
Robin Kuiper I believe it has something to so with a Phoenix. from Ashes rises a new bird. The fire is a symbol for grief that consumes him. As it spreads across his body, his grief grows and he makes relics in order to remember a time when he was with his sister. This is him coping with her dead and his stages of grief. Finally when the fire consumes him and he is nothing but ashes, he can be born anew.
Ava Andrasi that is a beautiful interpretation
This song kinda hits different with headphones on
Buy a decent stereo
wayne murphy good idea
Hits hard when only one ear is working and you can't buy new ones cz we're quarantined
Oh dang, right you are!
Chaos World hehe 😆
I accidentally found this song 2 years ago. As usual played it on loop! Thought i'd get over it as all songs. Here i am 2 years later, still love it! It's the music
Kygo ft Selena Gomez - It Ain't Me
@World Peace You should watch Make Me Love You - Taeyeon MV. The song is good.
Try Say it by flume
But everything changed when the Fire Nation attacked...
mdr xD you made my day !😘
Hahahahhahah
A hundred years passed and my brother and I discovered the new Avatar, an airbender named... Quartzy
And although his airbending skills are great, he still has a lot to learn before he's ready to save anyone. But I believe Quartzy can save the world
Quartzy lol
I can’t stop listening to this song. The music and the lyrics, it’s just so beautiful! 🌹
Priscille Matron same. I’m addicted to this lovely shit.
whoever is reading this, love to you, hope you the best. !!!! you are an angel and an amazing person!

2:36 my favorite part of the song ❤
One of the most if not the most underrated song along with for what it’s worth by kygo🔥🔥🔥
Why isn't Ellie on the title?
BTW THIS SONG IS GREAAATTTT
this is the FIRST TIME I have ever heard this song even though it was made 2 years ago
I'm starting to question my wisdom
lollolh scott it's a masterpiece, and only kygo can make a electronic so emotional
This is my first time ☺
This and King and Lion Heart. Reminds me of me and my older sister. Best friend since day one just trying to survive the jungle. Enuff said.
Where are Ellie's true fans?
How much I love Kygo .. always so positive and relaxed vibes. I also recommend sky parox - midnight drive and rubayne - selfish future bass !!
Let the vocals aside ....the music is lit ... i feel touched
This is the most Underrated song ever
You should listen to shy martin's songs they are so underrated...also she is the one wrote this😁
Lyrics :-)
We were lovers for the first time
Running all the red lights
The middle finger was our peace sign, yeah
We were sipping on emotions
Smoking and inhaling every moment
It was reckless and we owned it, yeah, yeah
We were high and we were sober
We were on and we were over
We were young and now I'm older
But I'd do it all again
Getting drunk on a train track
Way back, when we tried our first cigarettes (oh)
Ten dollars was a fat stack
I'd do it all again (oh)
Bomber jacket and a snapback
Your dad's black Honda was a Maybach (oh)
"Re: Stacks" on the playback
I'd do it all again (oh)
We were lovers on a wild ride
Speeding for the finish line
Come until the end of our time, yeah
Started off as a wildfire
Burning down the bridges to our empire
Our love was something they could admire, yeah, yeah
We were high and we were sober
We were on and we were over
We were young and now I'm older
But I'd do it all again
Getting drunk on a train track
Way back, when we tried our first cigarettes (oh)
Ten dollars was a fat stack
I'd do it all again (oh)
Bomber jacket and a snapback
Your dad's black Honda was a Maybach (oh)
Re: Stacks on the playback
I'd do it all again (oh)
Stack stack, stack stack, oh oh...
Speed speed, speed speed oh oh...
Stack stack, stack stack, oh oh...
Stack stack, stack stack, oh oh...
Stack stack, stack stack, oh oh...
Speed speed, speed speed oh oh...
Stack stack, stack stack, oh oh...
Stack stack, stack stack, oh oh...
Stack stack, stack stack, oh oh...
Speed speed, speed speed oh oh...
Stack stack, stack stack, oh oh...
Stack stack, stack stack...
Sometimes I think about her voice. Like how is she so blessed with an angelic voice? Is there an autotune embedded within her vocal cords or something?
hm
Esta canción significo el inicio de una nueva etapa en mi vida... Justo cuando recién se estrenó 🇲🇽💙
1:08 This kind of music brings some unknown memories to me 😊😊
I remember when this had 49 million listeners on spotify!
Tímé I listened this song on Spotify a few days ago

This woman has an incredible voice🙌🙌🙌🙌
Tears are rolling from my eyes.....when the beat start my heart stop for a while😌😌😌and I ...... can't describe that how much this song is meant to me
me too 😭sometimes I can't even listen till end of the song because the beat gave me a lot of feelings ❣️and also sadness 💔
I forget to like this song.. nd now i come back after 3 years to like this beauty..😄😄
me too man
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Me too😁
Me too 🖤
Yeah me too this song its like remind me of some old memories
The burning and getting rebirth again is a similar concept to the burning of the Phoenix ..and the burning is somehow connected to his feelings , Whenever he’s sad or upset he starts to burn and die and rebirth again .
the girl in the beginning is either his sister or someone he fell in love with and Ellie is her ghost watching him and she’s always wandering in that flower field (afterlife) so he was always trying to Remember those memories that makes him sad or angry so he could burn and die and starts to search for her
He was willing to die a hundred times so he could find her in the after life ( flower field) the boys that were wandering around the field is all actually him but different timelines.
Zankyou~ ^^
oh ok cause I was like is this incest that girl
It's cool to have an artist that you can interpret and deconstruct the work of......I had that with Morrissey in my teens and early adult years. It's important to have artists like that at that age.....it works your brain out, and the reward is you become more insightful with every theory you hash out....
So deep

I absolutely love Ellie Goulding's music she really needs to come out with some new stuff soon or a new album would be absolutely amazing! Keep doing your thing Ellie Goulding I love your music anything you're featured on or even anything like that your voice is amazing and you can tell it's always you! Keep being a good artist. I love music and it's such a good way to connect.
She already released a new album Brightest Blue being her most personal album yet with classical masterpieces. And recently she became a new mum, but confirmed that she is going to release new EDM album soon.
❤ Peace, love and light! May all humans come together connected by a higher purpose

Don't even need to listen the whole song to fall in love with
Hermosa canción para escucharla caminando con un atardecer ya oscureciendo ♥
Temazo mi hermano ✔️
i dont know who gave the idea that from 2:37 this song should sound that way. it takes my soul away ❤❤😢
Like who Loves Ellie Goulding !❤ Greetings from Germany 🖐
What I came up with: the sister died young...the boy kind of shut down and have anger management. He grew up but he distant himself from his dad and can't relate to other people..he still stuck with the past and his own anger. Everytime he is sad and angry he thinks of his sister again cause it's the best memory...and all the dream they'd share. All those boys in the field represent the boy in each stage of his life. From a little boy to adulthood.
I know it's only been 2 years since the song was released but I can already feel the nostalgia. Does this every happen to you, that you hear a song, for the first time, or you hear that song in that one event, and then you don't hear that song in a long time, and when you hear that song again again, it reminds you of that event?
Cause I do 😊🤗🙂😌😢
(*And no it doesn't have to be this song, it can be any song*)
yes, it make me feel sad because im a litle older now.
