Song Choice

Working in a group with Jenny and Jess...
We considered a number of songs, including ones by Lady Gaga and Good Luck Jane, but we ultimately settled on finding a song by Ellie Goulding. First we looked through her album 'Lights' finding the songs that at the time didn't have an official music video so we wouldnt find ourselves replicating it, and then we listened to them and looked up the lyrics of each to decide which we thought we could do the most with. Songs by her that we rejected include; 'Wish I Stayed' and 'Salt Skin'.

Artist: Ellie Goulding
Album: Lights
Song: I'll hold my breath
Song length: 3.45 minutes
Produced by: Starsmith

Lyrics:
Breathe air you're not used to,
tread floors you don't fall through
Make waves...
You crash a symbol hard
Follow no one, always play the wrong card
Waste days, in foreign places
She'd lights, on your better side
Reassure me that you'll wait for me,
wait for me as long as it takes!

And I'll hold my breath, I'll hold my breath

Until you see me in your dreams
WE'll stay awake beneath the trees
We'll watch the buildings turn to dust
A sky of diamonds just for us
You are the risk I'll always take
The only branch I'll never break
Thsoe fears we'll blow them all way

Fight fires in your best clothes,
touch skin with your eyes closed
Chase thunder...
With the volume down
Pack a suitcase, wonder to the next town
Force quit, on your losing streak
Solve a riddle in a magazine, be tongue in cheek
Tell me that we're still too young,
That we're still too young and I'll my tongue

Until you see me in your dreams
WE'll stay awake beneath the trees
We'll watch the buildings turn to dust
A sky of diamonds just for us
You are the risk I'll always take
The only branch I'll never break
Thsoe fears we'll blow them all way

I'm here, I'm here to save you
No fall, I will swim to save you

Until you see me in your dreams
We'll stay awake beneath the trees
We'll watch the buildings turn to dust
A sky of diamonds just for us
You are the risk I'll always take
The only branch I'll never break
Those fears we'll blow them all way
