this 2021 ass take

Not much has changed since then. What has changed I think is Lorde herself and how she deals with her fame and her public. I think the SP was very formative for her, to be confronted for the first time. Discussion about SP is exactly what this new album will be (mostly) about. Take a look at the lyrics from the snippet. The so confusing remix i think showed a much more mature Lorde and an artist that is able to see herself critically as a public person

This could be another part of WWT :ohwow:

OT: i think it's impossible and they were just throwaways, but do you guys think Silver Moon and Invisible Ink can appear on the deluxe version of the album or something? :duca:

 

Kind of wondering what her plan was with performing these, perhaps they were supposed to be tour droplets that never panned out because now we know they came way before any actual L4 sessions.

L4 sessions started in 2022 so they were actually :rip:but she did confirm they were just throwaways and said she doesn't think they're that good.

 

i think the album got updated 1000 times though cuz she had a big breakeup:

 

then also this happened which probably inspired her:

There's nothing more ethereal than listening to Solar Power while car driving to the beach during the summer oh God PERFECT 

Everyone throwing Solar Power tracks around but not mentioning HER:

 

 

Jack AnTurnItOff actually did something with that guitar riff in the beginning like OKAY

No one could ever make think that an album with Helen of Troy, The Path, Stoned, MR, TMWTA, Hold no Grudge, Secrets, FF, California, and Oceanic Feeling is bad. Sorry it's just impossible

 

The way the bit from 3:10 'til the end slaps. It's a golden necklace on tanned skin, it's fresh-cut grass, it's an empty beach at the peak of July

 

I'm sorry, but broke ******* cannot relate – nor understand the depths of Solar Power.

I love that all her albums are not only aesthetically/sonically very distinct but also very VOCALLY distinct as well. Her voice is so light on Solar Power to match the vibe of the album, then very emotional on Melodrama, then very angry on Pure Heroine like i barely know artists who do that with their discography

Buzzcut Season

Green Light

Homemade Dynamite

Hard Feelings

She was so smart to perform at Coachella after the snippet went viral. I hope she keeps the hype going, I love to see my fellow Lorde fans engaged after 4 years of drought.
