Background

{{Blockquote|text="Love I’m Given is about accepting and being at peace with all the mistakes in your life and realizing you get the same love back you give out. The video represents the fight between calm and chaos. The Boxing ring is weirdly the place I feel the most pure and in control and the moments gold dress represent getting to a place of ultimate power when you know you are in the most powerful place you can be when you have that kind of revaluation about love and forgiveness."|author=Goulding|title="Ellie Goulding Unveils Stunning New Music Video For ‘Love I’m Given’"|source=ET Canada{{cite web|url=https://etcanada.com/news/681759/ellie-goulding-unveils-stunning-new-music-video-for-love-im-given/|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20201019084240/https://etcanada.com/news/681759/ellie-goulding-unveils-stunning-new-music-video-for-love-im-given/|url-status=dead|archive-date=October 19, 2020|title=Ellie Goulding Unveils Stunning New Music Video For 'Love I'm Given'|publisher=ET Canada|date=19 August 2020|access-date=1 December 2020}}}}
