LSS: Anything Could Happen (Ellie Goulding)

I know, I know. The song is already a year old. But compared
to her latest hits such as Burn, Lights, and Goodness Gracious I find Anything
Could Happen more of an emotional track which in all honesty is more LSS-worthy
than her other released singles.
I’m that deep. I dig ballad and
mellow-sounding music. Especially when the song elicits raw emotions. That I
just find myself in a trance-like state. Before I lose myself let’s continue
this entry.
Before Anything Could Happen,
Lights made it big especially on the Billboard 100 chart. Lights is a dancey
electro-pop song which is quite different compared to the enchanting electro ballad
Anything Could Happen.
Ellie confirmed in an interview
that she was a bit nervous with the release of Anything Could Happen since it
was something new to her fans. But after only five days the music video for the
song reached one million views on Youtube which is a good thing.
The song opens up with a whimsical start
with dolphin-like noises and stomping beats. Ellie’s haunting yet heavenly
voice will transport listeners to another world. A world where everything is
possible and anything could happen.
As the track nears to its end you’ll
hear Ellie’s willful declaration, “I know it’s gonna be” a couple of times until the song's powerful climax.

Although the slow paced song
seems a sad recollection of a relationship gone bad, Ellie hopes that it will
invoke positivity to everyone. The song challenges us to be optimistic in every
situation that we’re in; to see the good in every mishaps and to press towards
what’s ahead of us.
