Goulding, Ellie - Black & Gold Lyrics
If a fish swam out of the ocean, grew legs and started walking
And the apes climbed out from the trees, and grew tall and started talking
And the stars fall out of the sky, and my tears rolled into the ocean
Now I'm looking for a reason why, you set my world into motion
Now I feel too tall, we all fear
But it's all just a bunch of matter
'Cause if you're not really here, then I don't want to be either
I want be next to you
Black and gold, black and gold, black gold
I looked up into the night sky and see I saw an eye staring back
And all around these golden beacons I see nothing but black
I feel a wave of something beyond though, I don't see what I can feel
If vision is the only validation, then most of my life isn't real
'Cause if you're not really here, then the stars don't even matter
Now I feel too tall, we all fear
But it's all just a bunch of matter
'Cause if you're not really here, then I don't want to be either
I want be next to you
Black and gold, black and gold, black gold
I want to be next to you
'Cause if you're not really here,
then the stars don't even matter
Now I feel too tall, we all fear
But it's all just a bunch of matter
'Cause if you're not really here,
then I don't want to be either I want be next to you
Black and gold, black and gold, black gold

SkiTellsssss06.12.1989......I pamietaj patrzac w Gwiazdy... ......
Kinda takes away from the meaning of the original. The original was about homosexuality. Idk what her interpretation is but I still love it
10/10 for fkn murdering a classic without any mercy.
2019 and still listening to this.
ellie is great but this producer sucks. anyone know a link to acapella version? lol
Love this cover. Really enjoying the Elle eyre cover too
lmao this brings me back to my old school tumblr days
me too when i was 13 and kind of broken hearted haha
I liked this song for so long since like 2010. It's crazy how far she's come, but I miss this Ellie.
I will always call this version Black and Goulding :D
Am I the only one who absoltuely loves how she says "bunch of matter"? There is something amazing in it <3
+Max Pricefield No. You're not the only one.
The lyric 'Somebody somewhere driving in their car is crying out' from the greatest gives me those same chills!
The guillemots version of this song is way better live with full orchestra, brilliant
i remember when no one knew who this was. those were good times.. before the sellout times..
+SyNrgi hahahhaha. Nice one.
oh my god shes so beautiful with brown hair!
@Julia Rubino that's clearly red -,-
+Andrei Vladi it looks like her natural blonde hair in a different lighting...
Her natural hair color is brown, I bet everyone thinks it's dyed.
Love this song ellie goulding is the best
Als je ellie goulding goed vind moet je Taylor swift eens probeten
Wat n lkrding die egg
Ellie goulding is hot
Zij is mijn favoriete zanger
Toen was ze al net zo mooi als nu wtf wat een lekkerding
Loved you wen u dropped this Ellie, Classic.
Ellie's songs are meaningful lyrics :)
is this song originally from sam sparro?
This song is originally sung by Sam Sparro. Ellie is singing a cover of it here.
ouh really?
Her lyrics are still meaningful, no need to doubt that.
i love here voice
I said its a joke read properly moron u need 2 go away stranger.
saying it "stinks" is hating, use a better choice of words, or I could start calling socially retarded for not knowing this and calling u a moron, and then saying its not bullying afterwards....!
Soz VAZNOT but u need 2 chill people say "truth hurts" as a joke!
It's not truth, it's your opinion.
μανουλι
Eww man! She really tried it stinks. Soz for her fans but im not hatin i like sams version better.( truth hurts)
LLLLLLOOOOOOVVvvvvveeeeeeeeeeeee
I loved this when I first hear it a couple years ago and it still moves me today!
Pillock? That can't be good.
she looks SO HOT WITH THOSE GLASSES
AMAZING :)))))
shitting terrible
no adele sinhs it better
so true...ellie sings it face pace
You should really hear the original cause it kills this
Omg no!!!!
I haven't heard the original but I don't need to after hearing Ellie's version first.
annnnnnnnnd this should be my school's song... our colours are black & gold (no lie!).
That's Ellie? She looks so different (but very nice).
Marry me,Ellie!
Tbh I don't agree with this, I thought that the original sounded more pure as you could really hear the depth in his voice but this one has too many computerized sounds and has a faster pace than the original.
Black and Gould
Not bad, diferent sound and faster... but kind of plain.... I think missing some more strenght in my very own opinion
Damn this is way better than the original! :D
Uh that's why it's a cover you pillock.
Good, but its not the original
She needs to marry me -.-
I love her voice!!!!
Absolutely amazing.
Why am I so addicted to Ellie's voice?
Ellie's songs are truly Patronuses in sonic form!
BEST BLACK & GOLD COVER OUT THERE AND I THINK I LIKE IT MORE THEN THE ORIGINAL!!!!!
I love sams song and its my fav bt I do like ellie's version. It def. has that ellie g vibe. She made it work for her. :)
Sams version is so much more chilled out. I do not like this version.
I love the high note in the chorus it adds a little 'Ellie" to the song.
This is 1,000,000,000 times better than the original, in my opinion of course. this version just sticks in my head just right, so much better. the sam version is so boring, it doesnt have that sparkle ellie adds
Like If you agree this version feels so natural and pure
Meh, OK, but I prefer Sam Sparro's version. Her other songs are good though. :)
99% of her songs are fucking written by her, and look her singing up live, she is british and has an accent, hater much?
Next time when you are searching for the Sam Sparro version, consider writing it on the search engine.
Fuck sake her singing is FLAT. Sam Sparro all the way.
WTF why does it say ellie goulding?
yes i am addicted to sam sparrows version but i am also loving her style so we shall all say they both are not equal but awesome to the top with no fear
Dopeyoda fuck u this is good shit
The original by Sam sparro has so much more soul. . Fuck this version.
I love her voice, but I don't think it suits the beat/instrumentals behind it. Feels like a clash of styles...
I love this song. It may be another remix but better even though I only like original songs
this is shit, and I hate lazy cunts that can't write their own songs. Or pronounce english properly for that matter. MOSHUN HERP DERP
This beat is waayy better!
This sounds soooooo much better than sparos version!
Its better this way
raping the replay button...
After listening to this and then going back to Sparros, i feel like his is too slow
This song is meant to be slow and smooth.
Not everything electronic is dubstep, young padawan.
Doesnt beat original
She so popular now?
I mean, it took her years. I danced to her stuff in 09
If i saw Sam Sparro's original version first i would probably agree that his version is the best, but I saw this first, so Ellie does it better. imo ;)
Wow, I watched this video before she became popular and this video had only like 50,00 views. Now it has lik 2,000,000! crazy...
hahahahahaha
Terrible
sam sparro will always be the best at this song.
I love Ellie!!!! :) <3
I like how this was a remake and it has more views than the original artist
lovely...
sounds annoying. sorry ellie
this fucking sucks
tomps op
dobstop yasyas
no doubt
I still enjoy the wonderful warm bass rumble of Sam Sparro's voice... Sorry Ellie, but not bad though!
its not sam sparrow its sam sparro!
Go take a lap and think about what you just said.!
