10 Things You Didn't Know About Ellie Goulding

2. She Had Her Reasons For The Anything Could Happen Video

Apparently, the idea behind the Halcyon album is days of youth and happiness and joy; Goulding liked the idea that there can be days that are really happy and really peaceful. And yet in the video for Anything Could Happen there is a car crash and nosebleeds, which was questioned in an interview with interviewmagazine. Goulding said: "For that very reason - the song is so happy and so hopeful, I guess I wanted to emphasize that also 'anything could happen' in a bad way. Someone close to you could get ill, or, anything really. I guess I wanted to have a serious point to the song as well. It's supposed to be surreal - I enjoyed making the video a lot, it was good fun, and I was really pleased with how it ended up".

I love Stephen King and music festivals; I eat my toast upside down; I daydream about getting married probably a bit too much; and I wish every day for a pet sausage dog puppy (who never materialises – sob).
