Very excited anyway, play on words title - nice :P Everything I've heard from her so far has been exceptional, especially Royals! It's out on October 20th, so a bit of a wait.
August 15, 201311 yr "Tennis Courts" is great! The next single "Royals" will be out on 20th October. The album will then follow the week after, 27th October apparently.
August 20, 201311 yr Randomly starting to feel like becoming a Lorde stan now. 'Royals' and 'Tennis Court' are both SO SO GOOD. And I've just found out she's only 12 days older than me WAT.
September 2, 201311 yr Look at 'Royals' blowing up all over the shop. A tune. Surely a few months top 10 when it gets its release here?
September 19, 201311 yr 4g03b4U_aPk New (I think) song from her, just been released in the USA but of course the UK is still waiting for 'Royals' so don't think this is a UK single. Nonetheless :wub:
September 19, 201311 yr I'm gonna put it out there...I don't really get 'Royals'. FAR prefer 'Tennis Court' and 'Team'!
September 19, 201311 yr She's phenomenally talented. For 16 and to be writing to the standard she is. Could easily pass for someone ten years older. 'Team' is sublime.
September 19, 201311 yr Author Team, Tennis Court and especially Royals are all just... wow. I know that it sounds like we're X-Factor judges with a young contestant, but I agree it's just completely astonishing to think she's 16 and writing/performing songs like this! She's only a few months older than me too.
September 19, 201311 yr I'm gonna put it out there...I don't really get 'Royals'. FAR prefer 'Tennis Court' and 'Team'! "Tennis Court" is great of course and for me her best song, but "Royals" is slowing growing on me (didn't really like it to start with) - she performed it on Jools Holland on Tuesday night and it sounded better.
September 23, 201311 yr 'Team' hasn't left my head for days. Newly leaked/released is an even bigger grower. She is really really good.
September 25, 201311 yr Was a bit hesitant about this but she's kind of really good. Still not liking Royals AT ALL though. Glory & Gore, White Teeth Teens, Still Sane and Buzzcut Season are my highlights so far. Her voice on Still Sane is VERY Del Rey!
September 25, 201311 yr It's just clicked who her voice reminds me of - I Blame Coco! (If anyone remembers who that was).
September 25, 201311 yr I don't esp like 'Royals' either. I can do subtle but it just meanders for me. I find it almost UNFATHOMABLY SHOCKING that it has become an INSTANT and HUGE hit in the US.
September 25, 201311 yr Alright record. The problem with a ten song album of 3-4 minute length tracks is that there is NO room for weak links and there are a few weak links there alas :( It's pretty obvious this is a rush job for the obv unexpected global success of 'Royals'
September 28, 201311 yr I like "Royals" (chorus is the best bit obv, video very striking too) but "Team" is just beautiful. I had no idea she was only 16. I'm getting slight Lana teas from her lyrics and the whole marriage of gentle melodies with hip hop-style beats THING she has going on.
September 28, 201311 yr Author I feel a bit disappointed with the album overall given how strong Royals, Tennis Court and Team were but I think as Jake said you can just tell it was rushed. Still Sane, 400 Lux and Glory And Guts are my other highlights!
