Ellie Goulding has shared a video for Sixteen.
The nostalgic clip echoes the sentiments of the track, which arrived earlier this month. Introducing it on Facebook, the vocalist said:
"I thought about songs dealing with new love, old love, lost and recovered, or never at all, and realised I’d never touched on the love that was found young and stayed. Some of my friends are still with the first person they fell in love with and that became my enchantment. 16 for me was hell and it was heaven. It was Pearl Jam, buffalos and trying to sing and play guitar at the same time, but it was also my scratched Ministry of Sound CD (scraping pounds together to buy another one from HMV from a waitress job) waiting feverishly for the dial up to connect to see if a boy was on MSN messenger whilst frantically trying to revise for GCSE’s. I think we probably all had unique experiences, bad and good. What are your memories of being 16?"
Goulding will appear at Arena Birmingham on May 4 as part of Free Radio Hits Live and has US shows in the diary for the summer.
Th singer has also contributed a track to the Game Of Thrones inspired compilation album 'For The Throne’, which is due out on April 26.
