Ellie Goulding

Isn't this the most talentless dross since Lily Allen? Caught her live flicking through music channels a while back, thought it was atrocious, just downloaded Now 78 and hearing her 'cover' of "Your Song", well, you just can't help laughing really.

I will say that I'm not big on her at all - and am consistently irritated to note that so many girls I know are huge fans of Ellie Goulding. I don't get it. Not my thing, I guess.

I won't say it's the worst thing I've ever heard or anything, but it's not...especially good.

She has got a voice that sounds like a cat being strangled. It is sqeaky and reminds me of a cross between Dido and Diana Vickers who I also think are both terrible!

No. She actually happens to be quite a talented songwriter for what she does, compared to the general UK female singer/songwriter competition.

You wouldn't catch me listening to her in the car or anything, but she is a right little melodist if ever there was one.

She's a lot better than you think.

Well we've yet to hear evidence. Good from the other replies, I thought it was just me who thought it was a cat being strangled.

I am surprised that you don't like her so much, I've always thought she is ok I really quite like Starry Eyed.

I happen to love Ellie Goulding! And she's sweet as can be! Just met her in Chicago!
