Ellie Goulding Releases House Anthem "Ravers" Ahead of Sixth Album

A Return to Festival-Ready Production

Ellie Goulding has released "Ravers," a house anthem that marks a departure from the introspective balladry of her recent singles. The track leans into a bright four-on-the-floor groove, with Goulding's vocals glimmering atop radiant house production. Her voice occasionally breaks into falsetto before the beat swells back in, creating a sound built for arms in the air and sweat-slicked walls.

Lyrics Celebrating Surrender and Euphoria

The song dwells on the sensation of losing yourself to a night out and to the people beside you. Goulding sings, "High on what you decide / I wanna light up when it feels right / Falling like waterfalls / Scream or just be quiet / I wanna be the joy in your ride / Ravers until we die."

Sixth Album on the Horizon

"Ravers" will appear on I Know Too Much, Goulding's sixth album, due out September 4. The new single follows "Black Prada Dress" and "4 Seasons," both of which leaned more into introspective balladry than euphoric buoyancy. "Ravers" breaks from that pattern, recalling the era of "Lights," the version of Goulding who soundtracked a generation's nights out.

The single is available now on streaming platforms.
