    ijbol remember when Solar Power had no CD bc of her climate activism - she said F the planet for this album, we cheered!

  • new track in 3 days.

  • I believe Melodrama remains her magnum opus, but Virgin sounds absolutely incredible. It's the Lorde we know, yet it also feels incredibly refreshing. In Hammer, she mentioned, "I might be born again,

a month later, it's a definitive AOTY for the time being

This is landing in my #3 for 2025 spot right now.. it's no where near EUSEXUA nor MAYHEM, but >>>> I quit (and, for now, its conciseness gives it the slight edge over JADE/TSB). But we'll see :clap3:

So this happened, more than 2M views.

 

Then about 6 hours ago, when I was about to say she isn't doing anything to promote the album, we got this one.

 

This explains the sudden boost for David lmao

She should add Girl, so confusing to the album on Spotify though, get those fake album sales!!!

I think this is going to end up as my AOTY, it's simply too excellent :jonny6:

 

Part of me that she really got the last laugh with everyone trying to clown her for Solar Power, but if anything this album makes that one all the more meaningful in her artistry and career

I still can't believe I will see her opening night in Austin. Please don't cancel, Queen. 
i wish i knew the setlist though.

It'll be magical without knowing tho

This really just came and went huh...

 

I wonder if she ever makes an album that feels like a MOMENT again

Anyway can't wait to see Nilufer Yanya in London with an afterparty from Lorde

Sometimes I feel like y'all weren't around during Melodrama era... (hint: everyone hated it at first). People only changed their minds once the album got acclaimed.

Babe I been here since The Love Club EP, I listened to Melodrama on Australian VPN before the reviews were out. It sounded shockingly good! As for ATRL acclaim I'm not sure because I wasn't on here at the time. But if you're talking about Green Light and Liability and Perfect Places and Sober as they were being released you might be right, I needed adjusting to the new sound throughout the single rollout so that when the album came, it hit. You can say what you want about people switching when the reviews are out and the album is acclaimed, but if the music is not for me, I just wouldn't want to replay it. And I had Melodrama on repeat for years

 

That being said, I do like Virgin, love the concept+visuals, some songs are really great, but as a whole I do not feel tempted to return to the project, I just really want a Lorde era to feel like a moment again, but maybe I just need to adjust my expectations ?! 

Hopefully the tour will breathe some second live into these songs 🙏
