I finally got around to giving this a good listen.
I have to say that although there is nothing on the album I don't at least like, 'Something in the Way You Move' is by far my favorite. It's epic candy for me. Other favs include OMM, Lost and Found, Devotion, and LMLYD. I honestly can't see myself getting into any of the ballads because I am so biased toward LMLYD; its the an example of the ultimate ballad for me, so it trumps the others on the album.
But its a great album. Very pleased.

It's epic candy for me. O I too think Something In The Way You Move has the strongest hook on the entire album and should have been the lead. I hope the Army rumors are not true as there are much better options in my opinion including Don't Need Nobody, Keep On Dancin' and Don't Panic.

I've heard it in full and I'm amazed. The only songs I don't really like are SITWYM, Don't Panic and WCMTT

The "yeah-eah-eah-EAHs" in Army are everything as well as when those drums kick in and I am ascended to the heavens.

That said, there's missing data from Spotify for Tuesday and Wednesday and Apple music for Wednesday.

So, I wanted to checked again her American Express UNSTAGED concert and I found out that the video previously uploaded is listed as 'private' now. :( That said, there are only eight performances on her YouTube/VEVO channel, which four (six, including "Love Me Like You Do" and "Outside") of them are from Delirium. Anyway, I could catch part of the livestream (I actually forgot about it, but I could watch it again because it was re-aired.) when it was aired a couple of days ago and I like the concert. One of the things that I found weird was the performance of "Army" though. I mean, it was shown during the livestream as a B&W performance, so I think it was done before the show began to not make the (livestreaming) audience to wait like five minutes because Ellie was leaving the second mini-stage that was set in the middle of the crowd where she performed "Explosions" and "Love Me Like You Do" to come back to the stage. However, the performance of "Army" is one of those uploaded now, but it isn't in B&W. Oh! And I'm gonna leave this here. This .gif was done by one of the posters from ATRL and it's hilarious. As far as I remember, it was done during her performance of "Keep On Dancin'", where she did a choreo on it and I wish this and the performances of "Don't Need Nobody" and "Codes" are going to be uploaded soon too. They were so great that it sucks that they aren't available at the moment.

Finally wrote a review for the album today www.themaxonline.net/2015/11/19/ellie-goulding-delirium/To sum it up: "It’s still likely to be one of my go-to pop albums for the next year and I can almost guarantee I will sing with and enjoy every song on it, but I’ll be damned if I’m not reminded every time of the disappointment that it’s still a step down."

I'm going to start by saying I'm not really a fan of Ellie's normally. It usually takes me awhile to get into her songs like "Lights, Love Me Like You Do and Anything Can Happen". They were never instant for me. Then she releases "On My Mind" which I LOVED right from the start. I got her new cd and I must say I really like it a lot. I really like "Something The Way You Move", "Keep On Dancing", "Codes", "Holding On For Life", "Don't Need Nobody", "We Can't Move To This" and "Devotion". If I were to pick the next two singles I would go with "Don't Need Nobody" and "Something The Way You Move".
Is this a normal Ellie cd? Should I take a listen to her other one's??

Any words on which is going to be the next single? There are a lot of amazing songs on the album and yet they decided to release one of the worsts as its lead. Something in the way you move, aftertaste and holding on for life are KILLER!

They haven't really announced Army yet it seems, so they may be rethinking. It was mentioned as the second single about a month ago so that's plenty of time to re-decide.
Either way, they definitely have the ammo to push this for a long time if they take the right steps.

I usually hate it when an album is this long cause inevitably there will be a point where everything will blend together but, surprisingly, this is not the case with Delirium. Great songs with fantastic melodies that allow her unique voice to shine through is all I could ask for and luckily I got it! That said, On My Mind couldn't be less representative of the album but at least it's a hit so it has done its job. It's hard to pick a favorite but as of now my go-to songs are Keep On Dancin, Holding On For Life, Don't Need Nobody, Army, Scream It Out and Let It Die.
I wonder if we'll get a (35-track) re-issue again and what she'll name it. It'll probably be called Delirium Nights.

If I had to pick the best, I would say Scream It Out. SO GOOD.

'Codes' really needs to be a single too, relatable and catchy!

It's the one that I can relate to the most and the one that hits me in the feels the hardest. It also reminds me of my other favorites of hers.

Ellie posted the following pic on Instagram some days ago. https://www.instagram.com/p/-iNKeITfWA Despite it looks like a still from the "On My Mind" video shoot, I'm intrigued because she wrote 'today' and tagged Emil Nava and Connor McDonnell in the caption, so I'm wondering if a music video was shot or she discussed a new one with Emil.
As a side note, as I mentioned in the thread of "On My Mind", I don't think that "Army" is the next single, but it will depend on next month because she did a performance of the track on Victoria's Secret Fashion show and it could be announced properly as a single by then.

I think "Heal" might end up becoming my favorite Ellie song to date.

Two Years Ago from the Target edition is an absolute gem. I wish there were still Targets in my area.

Codes is a HUGE hit.
1. On My Mind 2. Codes 3. Something In The Way You Move 4. Holding On For Life 5. Don't Need Nobody
While I love Keep On Dancing, I don't think it will work for radio.
