Known for her soulful heartfelt singing, positive lyrics, beautiful personality and infectious smile Ellen is inspired by Lauryn Hill, Sara Bareilles, Adele, Norah Jones, Corinne Bailey Rae & Stevie Wonder but maintains her own "quirky" musical identity.
Though she has been a musician since the age of 12—playing in church and the occasional gigs—Ellen has finally decided to pursue a career in music. “It describes who I am,” she says describing the meaning behind her stage name. “I feel like I’ve been doing other stuff but I’ve always come back to music because this is really what I want to do.” True to her word, Ellen spends the majority of her time writing, recording and teaching music.
Currently in the process of recording her as yet untitled debut EP, Ellen has received critical acclaim for the few songs she has leaked online. The fun but socially aware “Plastic Land” (Save Me) and “Spreading the Love”—the latter of which she will be shooting a video for—are just two examples of what Ellen has in store.
Ironically, Ellen’s fan base has grown exponentially thanks to tech bloggers. Her husband, full time supporter and part time producer Andre, introduced Ellen to the iPad in an attempt to convince her that his gadget addiction was actually useful. Over the Christmas break the couple used a few iPad apps (Pianist Pro, Nano Studio and Bebot) and an iPhone 4 to shoot and edit her first video. The experiment quickly went viral, garnering over 20,000 views on YouTube. The video featuring Ellen singing covers of “Hey Soul Sister” / “New Soul” was picked up by a number of blogs and lauded as an innovative use of the technology.
Ellen plans on continuing to embrace her newfound blog fame by making more videos. However, traditional music is still her first love. Armed with songwriting ability, a serious passion for music and a dream, Ellen Once Again is a name fans will soon be repeating again and again.
I'm Feeling Lucky
Ellen Once Again Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
see London or New York
Sell everything I have
Take me and nothing more
I think I'm feeling lucky today
Let go of all my worries
Dare say I'm feeling lucky today
I'm gonna make the most of it
Become a billionaire
Make brand new dreams to Paris
And wake up anywhere
I think Im feeling lucky today
let go of all my worries
Dare say I'm feeling lucky today
I'm gonna make the most of it
Maybe I'll catch a plane to Vegas
Buy a dress and say I do
Make a wish that will come true
I guess I'm feeling lucky today
I'm done with doubt and breaking away
Lucky today
I think I'll take a train
See London or New York
