In 2013 she might’ve been seen as a more palatable Sky Ferreira or Lana Del Rey, but in a post-Solar Power world is Ms. Yelich-O’Connor needed?

If she gives us more classics like 400 Lux then yes.

If she keeps up the Colbie Caillat tribute act type music then no.

One flop era and suddently she's "not needed" 

no, stan Kelis and stream this BOP

I can't believe it's been six years since Melodrama we are still waiting on L3! 

Yes, if she gives more Melodrama. Both Lana and Lorde are poetic and emotional; but Lana is the more poetic artist, Lorde is the more emotional one.  
 

Musically Lorde taps into a whole new dimension of the sad girl; the honest non-pretentious sad girl whos stoned at the nail salon. We stan

her cloudbusting is coming and haters will forever be ended

 

 

no, GAYLE replaced her

OT: I didn't live for Solar Power, but there's always room to improve.

A timeless bop

 

 

 

The world needs her more than ever. 

Didn’t the biggest star in the world just attempt a melodrama type record? 

What a gross question 

It’s art, technically no MPG is “needed”.

 

That said, I wish she had a quicker release cycle.  Her first era was so promising. 

Yes, seethe 

I need her to release a better album than SP

Her music aged horribly and the “ugly” alt-girl  gimmick doesn’t sell as much now that she’s older 

Yes, absolutely. Lorde knows how to convey emotions like angst and loneliness and and themes like coming of age better than any other songwriter I know of her age, aside from Fiona Apple.

 

She is still very much needed in the music scene.

She was never needed 

 

Idgaf but yall know it too. 

 

She is an overrated one hit wonder with an annoying attitude. Billie without the talent really. 

Some of you are so extreme.  She only had one flop era, she could comeback with a great album and if she doesn't just don't listen to it, there's room for everybody.
