I hope Coachella streams her set this year.

 

@Garrett L. and I are watching her Coachella stream and it's fantastic. Anyone else catching it?

 

She is absolutely crushing it.

@Nick you should try to watch it on the coachellalive website when you wake up later today.

 

In the two years since her last Coachella performance I watched, she's become a better singer, performer, and way, way happier. It's just the best to see.

 

This is great to hear. I saw the first Coachella set and loved it, I am heading back out next week to see her again. YES

 

I mean, I know I'm biased as all get out when it comes to her, but this has been downright incredible. So excited to finally see her in June. Have fun dancin'!

 

Ellie rocking out on a Les Paul is quite the sight

 

Seeing her tear up has me tearing up. It's really great to see her finally "arrive," if you can say that about someone who had so many hits. But yeah. Love my girl. That was awesome.

 

Last time I saw her, I didn't even like her music. I really like Delirium, I think I'm gonna dig it

 

yeah i listened once and haven't put it on again since. i couldn't say that about lights or halcyon.

i saw her two years ago but i don't like remembering it for personal reasons. so i wish it wasn't in that setting. but i had no problems with her as a live performer. i couldn't believe i was seeing her in a "small" (1000) venue either.

 

So how was it?

 

I must be crazy or something, I liked her the other time a lot more. I caught the end of her set because I was at Sufjan so I didn't see it all, but what I did see isn't really... my favorites. I saw:

When Doves Cry
Lights (Acoustic)
On My Mind
Anything Could Happen
Figure 8
Love Me Like You Do

Doves Cry/Lights was cool, but really stripped back and kinda boring. On My Mind felt a bit off, I've never liked Anything Can Happen but it was good. Figure 8 was great. Love Me Like You Do was kinda a boring ender honestly, even though I like the song.

I missed the beginning, which sounds nice and upbeat

Intro (Delirium)
Aftertaste
Holding on for Life
Burn

 

That does look like a really hyped up beginning. Figure 8 has always been one of my favorites, and the version she did on the live stream from weekend one was incredible. Looks like she didn't do Outside or I Need Your Love your weekend, but she did the weekend before.

I'm glad I'm not alone in not really liking Anything Can Happen. It may be my least favorite song on Halcyon.

Her setlist for this tour looks like a total dance party, though.

 

"I know it's gonna be" x6 part is really not pleasing to my ears

 

Oddly, that's my favorite part.

 

haha, well then!

 

that's the joy of music!

 

I hate that part too Steve. That and "Only You" are the two songs on Halcyon I don't love.

 

Gotta love this,

Years and Years had to cancel their show last night opening for Ellie, due to illness. So instead of having blank time until her set, Ellie opened for herself with a 20-minute acoustic set of music she wasn't going to play during the main set

 

BAD. ASS.

 

Now if only I could make that happen in Atlanta...

 

New song "Kingdom," I don't know the source or story behind it

Definitely fits in the Delirium era. I like it more than a few Delirium tracks (mostly from the bonus disc, though).

 

another new song / Delirium era track, "Beautifully Numb"
