I really liked Lorde‘s debut album and I really like what she represents in music. I like that sick burn she gave to Dipshit Diplo yesterday. I like that she doesn’t give a fuuuuuuck what you and I might think of her. One thing I do not like? Her “dancing”. It’s so distracting! In theory it’s great, because she’s totally into it, doing her thing, getting her groove on, clearly not caring whether she looks like she might be having a seizure. That’s awesome and she should keep doing her. But from a viewing standpoint, I have to turn off any visual of her in order not to ruin the sound – and the sound is pretty awesome in this case.
Lorde stopped by to visit Annie Mac in BBC Radio 1’s Live Lounge yesterday, where she covered Jeremih’s ‘Don’t Tell ‘Em’ and did a pretty amazing version of it. I’m not sure why she’s dressed like it’s mid-summer in a crop top when it’s the middle of November, but again, let your freak flag fly, girl! Be a free spirit!
She has minimal talent but in today’s pop music world that’s enough to make her a huge star
I wish she didn’t sound like a baby when she sings. I might actually enjoy it…
I would add her to the pantheon of “Talented Weirdo Girls” – female singers who are attractive, a bit (or a lot) unusual, and quite talented.
Other members include Kate Bush, Tori Amos, Björk, maybe even Cyndi Lauper.
