History YMMV / DeltaGoodrem

* SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic: ''Mistaken Identity,'' ''Child Of The Universe'' are amazing albums.

* ContractualPurity: Both [[AvertedTrope averted]] and played straight, depends on how much you like her. People know she's not entirely innocent, but she hasn't lost her purity in the public eye entirely yet. Despite some evidence to prove she's not the angel she depicts herself to be.

* SugarWiki/HeartwarmingMoments / SugarWiki/SweetDreamsFuel: "Sanctuary". A song about true friendship
--->''Just like the glorious northern star you guided me''
--->''Shining a light of pure tranquility''
--->''To a secret place where no-one else could go''
--->''Free to reveal the things I never show''

* HarsherInHindsight: "Sometimes You've got to give up the things you like" in "Born To Try", bam, has 3 year breaks between albums, is a SerialRomeo and focuses on her boyfriends, gives up every time she actually gets somewhere, hides when backlash happens, moves countries cuz the press is "MEAN" "and that's never happened to anyone before"...et cetera.

** "This Is Not Me" has also darker implications after the revelations with the ''Child Of The Universe'' album and applies to her life more so, just like the Predictable example above.

* MisBlamed: As mentioned in the main page, her third album got some executive meddling in it and or outside help where it wasn't needed, that backfired. Five years later, her fourth album has the notion that her recording company have been sitting on it for over a year and was planning to be released anywhere between late 2010 and late 2012, but due to issues, some of which she can't control, it hasn't come out yet. Both are examples where she got blame, and she may not have earnt ALL of it.
* {{Narm}}/NarmCharm: "Believe Again"
----> ''I'd lost my faith in love, now I believe again''
----> ''My heart was a broken place, now I feel whole again''
----> ''You bring me honesty,and that's worth believing in''
----> ''and I believe, I believe again''

* SomeAnvilsNeedToBeDropped: "Nobody Listened"

** She is not a perfect person and does get angry and does not have complete control over her life the whole time...

* TearJerker: "Not Me Not I" to name one!

* WhatCouldHaveBeen: The three or four albums/Ep's of work she has pushed aside for ''Child of the Universe.'' Some of it must've been amazing and now it's gone due to circumstances which don't make much sense...

* VindicatedByHistory: ''Mistaken Identity'' did get some quiet backlash, subtle criticism, negative feed back and was considered to be a "Cluttered" record when it was released, but after the ''Delta'' album came out in 2007 it became a universal fan favourite. It is now seen as an honest, thought provoking, beautiful, whimsical, passionate, aggressive, thoughtful, deep, heart felt album and was true to what a natural, true Delta Goodrem album is. It basically became more real to her fans as her fans grew up.

* EarWorm: "Innocent Eyes", "Hunters and the Wolves", "When My Stars Come Out", "Take Me Home", "You Will Only Break My Heart", "Born To Try", "Fever", "Electric Storm", "Miscommunication" and "A Little Too Late" are all catchy.

* YokoOhNo: To Music/BrianMcfadden; she was called a home-wrecker.
** Also got crap for her relationship with Mark Philippoussis.
** And her romance with Music/NickJonas, by Music/JonasBrothers fans in general and "Nick has true love with Music/MileyCyrus" fangirls.
** Music/NickJonas also caught flack from Delta fans for distracting her from her creative ouput.

** NickJonas also caught flack from Delta fans for distracting her from her creative ouput.

** Before "I Don't Care" and being signed to Sony, she recorded an album's worth of demos for indie Empire Records in 1999-2000 (''[[SelfTitledAlbum also]]'' tentatively titled "Delta"). While she was recovering from cancer in 2004, her parents fought against having it released, eventually settling out of court. TheOtherWiki [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Delta_Goodrem_unreleased_tapes_dispute has more information]].

* WhatCouldHaveBeen: The three or four albums/Ep's of work she has pushed aside for her fourth album for the last three years. Some of it must've been amazing and now it's gone due to circumstances which don't make much sense...
** Before "I Don't Care" and being signed to Sony, She recorded an album's worth of demos in 1999-2000 (which would have ''also'' been called ''Delta''). While she was recovering from cancer in 2003, her parents fought against having it released, eventually settling out of court.

** Innocent Eyes piano solo at her Believe Again tour is extremely impressive.

** '"Butterfly", "Visualise", "Beautiful Madness", "How A Dream Looks, "Turn You Away", "Angels In The Room", "Rise", "Hypnotized", "Safe To Believe", "Out Of the Blue", and "You Are My Rock" are this

* RewatchBonus: She highlighted the word: FREEDOM and That's Freedom seem even more meaningful in hindsight after the Believe Again tour which it was featured as she was not free at the time, but Now she is.

** Innocent Eyes drops some aesops about growing up and staying true to yourself. "Butterfly" celebratex friendship...

* TheyJustDidntCare: Reason's why some of her fanbase doesn't like some of her vocal work on the ''Delta'' 07 album and some of the lyrical work.

* SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic: Mistaken Identity, Child Of The Universe are amazing albums.
** Innocent Eyes is a pop classic and is in one in every three houses in Australia.

** Waiting For Forever, and most of her b-sides/leaks are pretty awesome. Such as, Beautiful Madness, The Riddle, Take Me Home, Fever, On My Own, Without Words, I'll Be Yours, Silence Be Heard, How A Dream Looks, Turn You Away and Hollow No More.
** Child Of the Universe has regained her many fans for returning to her traditional way of working, fan favourites include War On Love, Touch, Hypnotized, Speed Of Life and Hunters And the Wolves.
* BizarroEpisode: Her third album reads like this in hindsight, imagine, Delta writing songs which are separate from her story and life, intentionally, picking random songs which she doesn't really feel, singing in an extremely unnatural Music/CelineDion-immatator style, and it has only 12 tracks compared to the rest of her discography and there is more.

** Those who love her music and anticipate a new release, but don't really discuss it much vs Those who love her music, want a new release and want it and express a feverish need for each album she puts out vs Those who sorta like her music, and don't really care when the next album will come out but insist they are fans.
** She also has a separation between her American fans who liked her Delta persona and her SelfTitledAlbum of GenreRoulette Pop. Then they are those who knew her before and love her first two albums.
* ContractualPurity: Averted and played straight, depends on how much you like her. People know she's not entirely innocent, but she hasn't lost her purity in the public eye entirely yet. Despite some evidence to prove she's not the angel she depicts herself to be.
* EarWorm: ''Innocent Eyes, Hunters and the Wolves, When My Stars Come Out, Take Me Home, You Will Only Break My Heart, Born To Try, Fever, Electric Storm, Miscommunication'' and ''A Little Too Late'' are all catchy.

** There is a [[SlowPacedBeginning 50 second intro]] and outro to Believe Again, both which could be cut in half and still have that build and release she was looking for, without making the song really hard to play casually and as over the top and insincere.
** Control of Child Of The Universe could easily end at 3.19 but goes on for 42 extra seconds.
* FanonDiscontinuity: Some of her fans have had fun recently deleting Music/BrianMcfadden related songs and otherwise deleting his presence in her life for a good 7 years. Only the songs they did together, or he made her write as love songs for him, the song after the break up are quiet awesome though.

* SugarWiki/HeartwarmingMoments / SugarWiki/SweetDreamsFuel: ''Sanctuary''. A song about true friendship

** ''Butterfly'', Visualise", "Beautiful Madness", "How A Dream Looks, "Turn You Away", "Angels In The Room", "Rise", "Hypnotized", "Safe To Believe", "Out Of the Blue, You Are My Rock" are this
** Her relationship with her adopted little sister "Racheal Leahcar" and her song written about her called "Shooting Star" Warmed many hearts.
* HarsherInHindsight: "Sometimes You've got to give up the things you like" in Born To Try, bam, has 3 year breaks between albums, is a SerialRomeo and focuses on her boyfriends, gives up every time she actually gets somewhere, hides when backlash happens, moves countries cuz the press is "MEAN" "and that's never happened to anyone before"...et cetera.

** This Is Not Me has also darker implications after the revelations with the Child Of The Universe album and applies to her life more so, just like the Predictable example above.

* {{Narm}}: "Believe Again"

** NarmCharm to people who like them!
* NightmareFuel: ''God Laughs'' would fall into this for the calmness in the music contrasting to the rather painful circumstances the song is about.
* ProtectionFromEditors: The only reason, combined with self inflicted DevelopmentHell she hasn't released a new album in the last four years.
* PanderingToTheBase: The Delta 07 Album was written to go over well in America, with heavy beats and impersonal lyrics. Delta also altered her albums a couple of times to release them in other countries, sometimes mixing up her first two albums (As was the case in China and America) or removing a personal song and adding her signature song to a tracklist (Happened to Delta 07 released in 08 in America) and remixing a few tracks to a more "Updated" sound.

* SeasonalRot: Generally accepted to had happened between Mistaken Identity and "Delta", music, songwriting and integrity wise, fixed by the time "Child Of the Universe" came out.

* SomeAnvilsNeedToBeDropped: Nobody Listened

** "Child Of the Universe" dropped some heavy anvils about breaking Delta Goodrem's heart and betraying Delta Goodrem and leading her to betray herself and she is a powerful person who will hurt you with her music. The album also explains why it took so look to come out and she makes a good case. The album also makes a good case for the benefits of taking time to heal and evolve and find yourself again.

** Mistaken Identity celebrates acknowledging weakness and having a good support system.
* TearJerker: ''Not Me Not I'' to name one!
** ''Extraordinary Day, Butterfly, Lost Without You, This is Not Me, In My Own Time, Last Night On Earth''

* TheyJustDidntCare: Reason's why some of her fanbase doesn't like some of her vocal work on the Delta 07 album and some of the lyrical work.

* HeartwarmingMoments / SweetDreamsFuel: ''Sanctuary''. A song about true friendship

* PuritySue: The number one reason for any of the backlash she has had ever! She had this almost non-human flawlessness to her public persona.

* TearJerker: ''Not Me Not I'' to name one!
** ''Extraordinary Day, Butterfly, Lost Without You, This is Not Me, In My Own Time, Last Night On Earth''
* TastesLikeDiabetes: "Believe Again" could be accused of this.
* TheyJustDidntCare: Reason's why some of her fanbase doesn't like some of her vocal work on the Delta 07 album and some of the lyrical work.

** "Waiting For Forever", yes Delta does still feel angry about issues with disillusioning situations unknown. (Either her break up with Music/BrianMcFadden or her recording company delaying her album for a year)

** Innocent Eyes drops some aesop's about growing up and staying true to yourself. "Butterfly" celebratex friendship...
** Mistaken Identity celebrates aknoledging weakness and having a good support system.

** And her romance with NickJonas, by JonasBrothers fans in general and "Nick has true love with MileyCyrus" fangirls.

** There is a [[SlowPacedBeginning 50 minute intro]] and outro to Believe Again, both which could be cut in half and still have that build and release she was looking for, without making the song really hard to play casually and as over the top and insincere.

* EndingFatigue and Starting Fatigue: Thinking about it there is a 50 minute intro and outro to Believe Again, both which could be cut in half and still have that build and release she was looking for. Without making the song really hard to play casually and as over the top and insincere.

* AlternativeCharacterInterpretation: DevelopmentHell / ThePiratesWhoDontDoAnything; Some people believe she's a hard worker in dire need of some sympathy and time off, on the other hand she has a growing hatedom because she appears to not do much creatively with her time, and swaps boyfriends and gets stuck in limbo a damn lot and most importantly gives her fans NOTHING to love.
** AllGirlsWantBadBoys Also there are debates about her taste in men and whether she does the pick bad guys to get good songs thing or just unlucky in love.
** CreatorBacklash / DevelopmentHell does she just like to distance herself from her older work or does she really really become disillusioned when something goes wrong, as it does, every era and WHY does she do it so frequently.
** ContractualPurity / IncorruptiblePurePureness Either she has way too much and it's hiding something, or she's just that nice but it comes off insincere. This has also made it hard for some of her older fans to grow up with her because she refuses to confess to being angry or moody or get personal while discussing the MANY issues which plague her day to day life under the WoundedGazelleGambit she has going for herself. Many times, most of her fans read her situations as her getting stuck with a horrible team, because of cause Incorruptible Pure Pureness Delta can not want to take a break and put things in Limbo every other week.
** WoundedGazelleGambit / WillNotBeAVictim: does she want pity or does it just read that way a damn lot. Does the media depict her as a victim of negativity but she doesn't agree with it and is trying to stop the pity parties thrown in her honour or does she actively encourage the general victimization of Delta Goodrem with her actions, words and reasons in the media and is okay with how she's the poor victim of the Big Bad bully's and haters.
** The legitimacy of her CelebrityEndorsement gets the gauntlet of feelings, from hey she can do what she wants, I love her anyway to "She's selling out her SOUL..I want music not ADVERTS, where is the Delta that I loved in 2004".
** Her [[ThePollyanna persona on the voice]] is open to many a debate, over everything from, she's being her usual sweetheart self, just trying to help, earnt her place among those men to she's a repressed, contrived wannabe surrounded by coaches who are better and have more work ethic compared to her.

* MagNumOpus: "Mistaken Identity" among her fans, "Innocent Eyes" in the general public eyes.

* FanonDiscontinuity: Some of her fans have had fun recently deleting BrianMcfadden related songs and otherwise deleting his presence in her life for a good 7 years. Only the songs they did together, or he made her write as love songs for him, the song after the break up are quiet awesome though.

** "Waiting For Forever", yes Delta does still feel angry about issues with disillusioning situations unknown. (Either her break up with BrianMcFadden or her recording company delaying her album for a year)

* YokoOhNo: To BrianMcfadden; of course, she was called a home wrecker.

** Control of Child Of The Universe could easily end at 3.19 but goes on for 42 extra minutes.

** Read FanDumb for more the most hopeless separations in her fandom.

* RewatchBonus: She highlighted the word: FREEDOM and That's Freedom seem even more meaningful in hindsight after the Believe Again tour which it was featured as she was not free at the time, but NoW she is.

** FanDumb She also comes under fire for her fan relationships, She is nice to '''Certain''' fans faces, but ignores them unless they show extreme willful blindness on her twitter and to HER face, despite the fact she never gives her fans anything and that's under fire by the fans she doesn't appreciate which in turn have turned on her. Either way most of her fans tend to rage because of lack of information, but others don't and they are the VocalMinority.

* FanDumb: Comes in two kinds at this point...
** Willfully Blind: Some Delta fans seem to see her in an overly positive image/Flawless and can not take any justified criticism of their "Australian Princess". Less since she took her long break, but still there somehow. Her sheen has not gone...
*** Have resorted to SlutShaming others who are not like her and are [[BritneySpears Not that innocent]]
** Stawstuffer/Loyalist: On the other hand, some fans seem to loathe her entire way of life now and are probably wondering why they stick around when they are so unhappy.
*** Have resorted to annoying Willfully Blind fans with their outrageously literal anti repression opinions

* HateDumb: One of her haters/strawstuff fans trolls TheOtherWiki's page about her, with names of her fourth album for some reason....

* EarWorm: ''Innocent Eyes, Take Me Home, You Will Only Break My Heart, Born To Try, Fever, Electric Storm, Miscommunication'' and ''A Little Too Late'' are all catchy.

* HeartwarmingMoments: ''Sanctuary''. A song about true friendship

** ''Butterfly'', Visualise", "Beautiful Madness", "Turn You Away", "Angels In The Room", "Rise", "Hypnotized", "Safe To Believe", "Out Of the Blue, You Are My Rock" are this

** ''Butterfly'', "Turn You Away", "Angels In The Room", "Rise", "Hypnotized", "Safe To Believe", "Out Of the Blue, You Are My Rock" are this

* BrokenAesop: "sometimes you have to sacrifice the things you like", in "Born To Try". She has to have breaks/holidays, for two years, between each era instead of following her path to world wide success. Kind of confusing she say you have sacrifice things you like, like romance and holidays to get further in life, but she insists on never following this guideline.
** Continued with her song called Knocked Out which has such lines as: "There's always something in the way if you let it stop you" and most Delta fans are used to SOMETHING going wrong and delayed her plans by months if not years!

* SeasonalRot: Generally accepted to had happened between Mistaken Identity and "Delta", music, songwriting and integrity wise.

** "Predictable" has taken a rather sinister second meaning since the revelations about Brian's behavior towards Delta.

** Child Of the Universe has regained her many fans for returning to her traditional way of working, fan favourites include War On Love, Touch, Hypnotized and Hunters And the Wolves.
