poll Lorde vs Billie: better first 3 projects?

[State of Grace.]

Continuing the trend of Billie/Lorde threads today

 

Two extremely talented, impactful, and acclaimed Grammy-winning ladies. Who had the better first three projects?

 

  

  

[VioletsandRoses]

Billie has 3 great albums while Lorde has 2. And Pure Heroine isn’t one of em 

[State of Grace.]

As a non-biased person who really likes both:

 

Pure Heroine > Don't Smile at Me

Melodrama >> When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go?

Solar Power << Happier Than Ever

 

 

[ohwow]

pure heroine >

melo >

happier >

[Big Bad Wolf]

Billegend, sweetie, I am so sorry that she would even compare you to such a flop

[punisher]

you’re italic i’m in bold

[suburbannature]

Lorde peaked with Pure Heroine - aged like fine wine. Melodrama hasn't held up (those lyrics lol) and Solar Power was an abomination. 

 

Billie takes this one.

This is my rating as well. Lorde would've cleared if Solar Power was up to par with her previous albums...but Happier Than Ever is just too good. We've also never seen a Lorde release where she's actually hungry for some sort of redemption...so this next one might be quite excellent.

All jokes aside, I would say Billie officially eclipsed Lorde when she released HTE.

Agreed. I personally didn't really get into Billie until Happier Than Ever. That album fully converted me into a stan although I already used a few songs from DSAM/WWFA + everything I wanted. 

 

Have a feeling that both L4 and BE3 will be great this year

[Solaria]

Easily Lorde for the first two but HTE >>> **** Power

[wastedpotential]

PH = DSAM

Melo >>> WWAFA

SP <<< HTE

 

[RideOrDie]

lorde sweetie... 

[Blue Monday]

Melodrama obliterates Billie’s discog, which is no shade it would do that to a lot of acts you could stack it up against.

[Maroonx]

bothhhh, but billie edges slightly

[aotearoa]

melodrama clears 

[West Coast]

Every Billie album is better than every lorde album sooo

 

[conquxror]

Billie couldn't write a song like Oceanic Feeling, so why should I respect her?

[Invisibility]

Not the blatant misinformation. Lorde's first project is The Love Club EP

[bad guy]

It was over for the New Zealander once HTE dropped

All tracks from The Love Club were eventually included in Pure Heroine, I mean they had the same lead single. Unlike DSAM which is basically a proper album disguised as an EP to me.

 

[badgirlriri]

DSAM > PH

WWAFA,WDWG <= Melodrama

HTE >> SP

 

Billie wins overall.
