The one track I didn't immediately like, Explosions, has finally grown on me, so yeah, I absolutely love it. I love that she didn't try to make the most catchy hooks and such, but instead tried to create an atmosphere.

Ohh I love Explosions. The only song I haven't gotten into yet is Don't Say a Word. And I was so used to the single edit of Anything Could Happen that it's taking a while to get used to the album version. Only You is so dancey; I love to jam out to it. And I absolutely love Halcyon. I really relate to the lyrics.

It seems on ATRL a lot of people didn't like Joy at first, but it's a grower. I haven't really heard enough of it yet to have an opinion.
I am kind of over Hanging On though. Maybe it's because I prefer the original. Not sure. And I hope I Know You Care is a grower because I really didn't like it the first time I heard it.
Re: Ellie Goulding - New Album 'Halcyon' Oct.8th 2012!
If I had a choice I'd remove Don't Say a Word, Joy, I Know You Care for the three bonus tracks.
It's just too sappy for me, and I'm really an emo guy too.

I haven't heard the bonus tracks yet. I didn't see any Deluxe versions for sale (not that I could have afforded it anyway). The CD I bought has the Calvin Harris song (I am not a fan of him) and Lights as bonus tracks.

^Ritual, In My City, and Without Your Love are the ones you are missing.

I love Don't Say a Word, the first 6 songs are great IMO! Then it starts to tail off a bit....until the bonus tracks.
