Review: Burn by Ellie Goulding

This cute British singer with wispy voice made her comeback last month with new video clip for her new single: Burn.


Ellie Goulding is best known for her genre, mixing dance beat with techno, electro-pop and sort of alternative sound that works just so well with her unique voice.

watch the music video here:

First thing to recognise is that this song is so very catchy. Once you listen to it, I almost guarantee you will not be able to resist the urge to hum it. The beat is up, makes Burn a good song to dance. But it does not sound wild or anything too up-lifting. Burn has the beat, is catchy, and at the same time very chilled.

By one month and a few weeks after the released of Burn official video clip, this song has darted its way up to the number 1 in UK pop chart. Making it and official summer anthem, as it is just damn appropriate.

What makes this song different is (other than Goulding's one-of-a-kind voice) the sort of syncopated rhythm that chants throughout the song. It reels you in together with pretty clean lyrics (respect). Also, you can actually sing along to this song! (She does not overdo any ad-libs, back vocal, or crazy improvisation of melody, making this a singable summer song with a melody line)

Burn is on sale, available on iTunes and GooglePlay. 

Tell me what you guys think in the comments below! Also, what other summer song have you been loving so far? (might be up for a late-summer playlist)
