Delirium is the third studio album by English singer-songwriter Ellie Goulding, released on 6 November 2015 by Polydor Records. It represents Goulding's shift toward mainstream pop, featuring large-scale, radio-oriented production and a sound that differs from her earlier indie-electro style. The album blends elements of electro-pop, synth-pop, and contemporary dance music.
Delirium includes the singles "On My Mind", "Army", and "Something in the Way You Move", as well as promotional tracks like "Lost and Found". It also features her international hit "Love Me like You Do" from the Fifty Shades of Grey soundtrack and additional collaborations on deluxe editions.
Critical reception was generally favourable, noting Goulding's vocal range, the album's polished production, and its pop-oriented direction, though some critics mentioned uneven songwriting and similarities to contemporary pop trends. Commercially, Delirium debuted within the top three in both the United Kingdom and the United States, achieving Goulding's highest first-week sales to date. It also appeared on several year-end lists.
