Here I was hoping for something as gorgeous as 'Perfect Places', 'Team' or 'Tennis Courts' but instead... get something dull and bland.

Not for me I guess (and as a known "hater" of Lorde, I say this as someone who somewhat enjoyed a fair few tracks on 'Melodrama'!).

I'm also hearing touches of All Saints in the mix too...

(I'll keep popping back with other 90s acts every now and again)


Sounds NOTHING like All Saints laugh.gif

This ... isn't the best, is it? Rare miss from Lorde.

@7 in the Sunday mids!! That's great to see, guess it was mostly due to Spotify
as its not doing that well on Apple (#60-ish now) and can't find it anywhere on the Amazon chart

A few listens to Solar Power this week and it is fine but I feel if it was by someone else I'd have discarded this from any playlists rather than keep it.

I've said on this forum before that Melodrama completely passed me by at the time, I hadn't see the fuss at all with the debut so just never checked it out and didn't stumble across it anywhere, this was the sort of thing I'd have expected it to sound like.

This hasn't really grown on me since my initial listen. I do like it but I'm certainly not feeling the need to constantly play it like I felt compelled to with the material on Melodrama.

Certainly no Green Light or Tennis Courts. Hopefully this is he rone-off summer song like One Hot Summer (but worse).

I was very underwhelmed on first listen...I like it slightly more now I've heard it a few times, but still find it a bit bland.
