Biography

An English singer and songwriter, born 30 December 1986 Hereford, England. In 2010 she became the second artist to both top the BBC's annual Sound of... poll and win the Critics' Choice Award at the Brit Awards in the same year, following Adele's win of both in 2008. After signing to Polydor Records in 2009, she released her first EP in 2009, An Introduction to Ellie Goulding. Goulding released her debut studio album, Lights, in 2010. The album debuted at number one on the UK Albums Chart and has sold over 850,000 copies in the UK. Her cover of Elton John's "Your Song" reached number two in the UK in December 2010. On 29 April 2011 she performed the song at the wedding reception of Prince William and Kate Middleton at Buckingham Palace. The album's title track, "Lights", was released in the US in March 2011, and reached its peak position of number two on the Billboard Hot 100 nearly a year and a half later during its thirty-third week charting, completing one of the longest ever climbs into the top two positions on the chart. The single was also certified triple platinum by the RIAA. Goulding has a soprano vocal range and her musical style has been compared to that of Kate Nash, Meiko, Lykke Li and Tracey Thorn.

LYRICS

Holding On For Life, eh!
Holding On For Life, eh!
Holding On For Life, eh!
Holding On For Life, eh!
Holding On For Life, eh!
Holding On For Life, eh!

Enemy, used to be part of you, bittersweet
But now you tell me lies
Up and down, cold and hot, swear to God, got to stop
'Cause I can't sleep at night (at night)

If you want a love like this
Blowing up with every kiss
Oh you should've known better (better, better...)
'Cause you find yourself alone
Chilling you right to the bone
No, you should've known better

You and me just running towards the light
Giving up the fight, hoping we survive
You and me just strangers in the night
Giving up the fight, waiting to ignite
Holding on for life
Holding on for life
Holding on for life (holding on for life)

Holding on for life
Holding on for life
Holding on for life
Holding on for life

Lost in you, lost in me, afraid of love, in too deep
So we just run and hide
Lightning fast, felt the crash, scared to lose, fear attacks
We only know goodbye

You and me just running towards the light
Giving up the fight, hoping we survive
You and me just strangers in the night
Giving up the fight, waiting to ignite
Holding on for life
Holding on for life
Holding on for life (holding on for life)

Holding on for life
Holding on for life
Holding on for life
Holding on for life

If you want a love like this
Blowing up with every kiss
Oh you should've known better (better, better...)
You find yourself alone
Chilling you right to the bone
No, you should've known better

Hopelessly holding on
To all those perfect nights
Let's pretend it's not gone
And say we'll never die

You and me just running towards the light
Giving up the fight, hoping we survive
You and me just strangers in the night
Giving up the fight, waiting to ignite
Holding on for life
Holding on for life
Holding on for life (holding on for life)

Holding on for life
Holding on for life
Holding on for life (holding on for life)

Holding on for life
Holding on for life
Holding on for life (holding on for life)

Holding on for life
Holding on for life
Holding on for life (holding on for life)

Hopelessly holding on
To all those perfect nights
Let's pretend it's not gone
And say we'll never die
Say we'll never die
