Wish I Stayed by Ellie Goulding

Artist Biography For Ellie Goulding

Frogtoon Music - Song Info: Wish I Stayed

This Was One Of The First Tunes She Ever Wrote Which Goulding Told The NME Is "a Song About Leaving The Countryside Which Still Pains Me." After Being Exposed To Electronic Music Goulding Developed This Song With The Help Of Electropop Artist And Producer Frankmusik Whom She Emailed Via MySpace. She Explained To The Guardian On December 12 2009 "I Said 'I've Got This Acoustic Song And I Know I Want Something Good To Happen To It But I Don't Know What – Can You Help Me?" Frankmusik Replied Instantly To Her Surprise. "He Said 'Yes I'd Love To Come Round On Monday.' So I Got A Train To Thornton Heath Ended Up Staying For A Week Recorded A Couple Of Songs And Just Talked About Music." The American Release Of Lights Features A Couple Of Tracks That Weren't On The Original UK Release Of The Set. To Make Room For Them "I'll Hold My Breath" And "Wish I'd Stayed " Were Omitted From The Repacked Album. Goulding Told Chart Rigger "It Was Kind Of Tough But It Was My Decision. I Feel Like I've Grown Out Of Them Slightly Because I Wrote Them So Long Ago. 'Wish I'd Stayed' Will Always Be Very Special To Me Because That Was One Of The Very First Songs I Wrote When I Was Just Really Free-Writing. I Just Prefer 'Animal' And 'Human.' They're An Example Of How I've Progressed. And The Reason I Kept Them For The Repackage And Not The Next Album Is Because I Think I'm Going To Progress Even More. But Those Other Two Songs I Kind Of Felt Like They Were Holding Me Back A Bit And I Wanted To Have A Fresh Start In America And Be Happy With The Tracks."
