Ellie Goulding - Salt Skin
Well, I know that song for a while. I can tell you that I've never heard a song like that one. First of all, Ellie's voice is just like as an angel's. Not too high and also characteristic. (Characteristic voice... rolleyes Like Yura-chan's voice. heart )
The instruments are really suitable; keyboards, drums, voice and sound effects. Contains Indie pop, Electropop, Synthpop, Folktronica and of course Folk-pop.
The lyrics are quite good. I would prefer it more if she sang she, not he, but it's my opinion.
How about my emotions while I'm listening it... rolleyes
I used to listen it 20 times a day. I could listen it all day long, but I prefer to listen it when I'm alone so I can listen it in maximum volume and or during shisha.
The song reminds me of someone and I'm also thinking about my problems while I'm listening it. Most of the times, when I listen it, I cry. It's not like a hysterical crying, just weeping.
Aww, I wrote a lot. Here is the song and the lyrics (Discription contains download link.):
Ellie Goulding - Salt Skin
You're as sharp as a knife and you fit like a glove.
That is no way to live that is no way to love.
Full of fear in your skin and the weakness in giving in.
Stabbed in the back but you feel no pain,
Push the heaviest doors that you can't open.
Yeah they tied me up and my body lies still, again...
You're as bright as the sun and as bold as the moon.
I don't know when you'll break but it's gonna be soon.
If my will caves in, I'll be in the same boat as you.
I've got the salt skin,
Running to where he is.
Never going to give in,
Even with the stength.
He's stealing salt skin,
Telling me I'm winning wars they created just to understand...
"the meaning of..."
Hands on strings and my mouth open,
Find the perfect words that I've not spoken,
And I won't tell the truth unless you want me to.
For all of the times that I lost my head,
When it rolled to the floor and I found it again.
But when it came back,
I didn't know my own name.
I've got the salt skin,
Running to where he is.
Never going to give in,
Even with the stength.
He's stealing salt skin,
Telling me I'm winning wars they created just to understand...
"the meaning of..."
I've got the salt skin,
Running to where he is.
Never going to give in,
Even with the stength.
He's stealing salt skin,
Telling me I'm winning wars they created just to understand...
"the meaning of..."
I've got the salt skin,
Running to where he is.
Never going to give in,
Even with the stength.
He's stealing salt skin,
Telling me I'm winning wars they created just to understand...
"the meaning of..."
You're as sharp as a knife and you fit like a glove.
That is no way to live that is no way to love.

Yeah they tied me up and my body lies still, again...
You're as bright as the sun and as bold as the moon.
I don't know when you'll break but it's gonna be soon.
