The album opens with a different version of Guns And Horses. When I first heard it, I didn’t like it. But, I played it a few more times and adored it. I’ve heard the demos of most of the tracks on the album, but hearing the Lights version of them all may upset some people that want Ellie to just sing with a guitar and have no electro sounds on the album. But before you judge it, give it a listen. Sit down with some headphones on and you will hear one of the most beautifullest albums ever.

I know I said all this about Florence but Lights is as amazing as Lungs. It really is. I’m not just saying it because I love Ellie but there is no fault at all on this album. No album fillers. Just good, honest music. Her lyrics are gorgeous and you can feel that she feels every word. We need more honest singers and luckily there are some decent ones around.

I know that this is a poor excuse for a review haha but, I just want to make it clear that this album, is stunning. I don’t want to write a review like you’d read in a magazine. I’m writing it as a fan that has been a fan of Ellie’s since the start of last year and has waited forever for this album. If the album is number 1 on Sunday I’m going to get drunk.Okay I don’t need a reason but y’know!

Hopefully This Love will be the next single. There’s something about it that has “NUMBER 1” written all over it.

I could honestly ramble on about the excellence of this album, but if you have it-you’ll already know this. If you don’t have it, most record shops are open until half 5 so off you go and buy it!
