Ellie Goulding has won the BBC’s Sound of 2010 poll.

The purveyor of electronic-tinged folk-pop ranked first in a top 5 that also featured, in descending order, Marina and The Diamonds, Delphic, Hurts and The Drums.

Goulding follows in the wee footsteps of Little Boots, who won the 2009 poll. Her debut album Lights will be released on March 1.
