comment
Halcyon is the second studio album by Ellie Goulding, released on October 5th, 2012 through Polydor Records in the UK and Cherrytree Records & Interscope Records in the US. Halcyon marked a departure from the folk-influenced Lights, with new elements such as Alternative Dance, Dream Pop, and Dubstep being brought in and all folk aspects being removed entirely. The sound is considerably Darker and Edgier than before, both lyrically and sonically, compared to the more upbeat Lights. To both critics and fans, Halcyon is considered to be a definite improvement over its already solid predecessor. Since release, Halcyon has sold over 1.5 million copies worldwide.

New Sound Album: Lights was a mix of synthpop, indietronica, and folk. Halcyon ditches the folk, and brings in alternative dance, dream pop, and dubstep. Justified, due to her boyfriend (at the time) being Skrillex.

Destructive Romance: "Goodness Gracious" is a light, upbeat sounding song describing one.

Precision F-Strike: Not Goulding, whose language is clean throughout, but the remix of "Hanging On" featuring rapper Tinie Tempah features several instances of swearing provided in his guest verse.

Capcom Sequel Stagnation: The original Halcyon was rereleased multiple times with new songs added, until Halcyon Days... which got this treatment too.
