Love Me Like You Do - - How to Play -

"Love Me Like You Do" is a song by English singer-songwriter Ellie Goulding, recorded for the soundtrack of the film Fifty Shades of Grey and later included on her third studio album, Delirium, both released in 2015. Written and produced by a team including Max Martin and Tove Lo, the track blends polished pop production with emotional dynamics. For electric guitar players, it offers a rewarding opportunity to explore clean-tone melodic lines, expressive chord voicings, and the kind of restrained, atmospheric playing that suits modern pop arrangements.

  • The song was released on 7 January 2015 as the second single from the Fifty Shades of Grey soundtrack.
  • Five songwriters contributed to the track, including pop hitmaker Max Martin and Swedish artist Tove Lo.
  • The track appears on Ellie Goulding's third studio album, Delirium, making it a key part of her discography to learn.

The Twin Reverb's legendary headroom and pristine clean channel are essential for Goulding's ambient guitar textures, allowing reverb and delay to bloom without any distortion or muddiness. Its glassy tone sits perfectly behind her ethereal vocals.

This compact powerhouse delivers the same bell-like clean character as the Twin Reverb with slightly less headroom, ideal for Goulding's spacious, lush reverb-soaked guitar sound in smaller venues and studio settings.
