#songoftheday / REVIEW: ELLIE GOULDING: “LOVE ME LIKE YOU DO”

“Touch me like you do / What are you waiting for?” sings the always flawless Ellie Goulding during “Love Me Like You Do,” her contribution to the forthcoming Fifty Shades of Grey soundtrack.  It’s an ultra-synthy number with layers of sweet vocals rising above loud drums during the punchy chorus.   Given what movie it’s for, one could use all sorts of sexual metaphors to describe it here, but we’ll leave it to you to imagine what you will while listening to it.  We’re just happy to make the introduction.
