Ellie Goulding has announced her fifth album, ‘Higher Than Heaven’, with the brand new single, ‘Let It Die’

Ellie Goulding has released ‘Let It Die’, the first single from her newly-announced fifth studio album, ‘Higher Than Heaven’.

The album will arrive in full on February 3rd via Polydor Records and follows her 2020 LP, ‘Brightest Blue’. Her previous single was ‘All By Myself’, a collaboration with Alox and Sigala, with her last solo release being July’s ‘Easy Lover (feat. Big Sean)’.

On the new album, Goulding has said: "There was definitely a darkness about [the past two years] that was palpable in the studio, with everyone having gone through it differently. I think for that reason, nobody wanted to sit and agonise over some relationship or some drama. So that's how this album came together.”

“[‘Higher Than Heaven’ is] about being passionately in love,” she declares. “But it's a hyper form of love, almost like a drug-induced feeling. It feels almost artificial and there's the potential for a crash."
