PeterPan 0 Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 She was never "big" in the first place If you asked most of the GP if they liked Lorde most or many would prolly ask who? Until you play the song Royals then theyre like oh I remember that song. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miracle 14,068 Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 Not with the HUGE critical acclaim she's got. Not when Melodrama is the best album of 2017. Even indie critics agree. Not when Green Light, despite its "incorrect songwriting", was more succesful than most of the songs Max Martin "perfect pop songwriter" has released this year.

ryanripley 86,575 Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 i'd love to get a 91 out of 100 on MC and be considered a flop Melodrama is easily one of the best albums of 2017, you can just sense the inspiration within the music and the lyrics are amazing Lorde is clearly not a mainstream artist anymore and she's more than okay with that, since she pulled herself out of the mainstream on purpose to write Melodrama https://goo.gl/xMgMvJ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lumi 3,512 Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 I bet Lorde never expected the fame she got during Royals, she's young, she's an international superstar and most importantly she's still herself. She was never forced to dress differently or to release albums every year to stay relevant, that's success and I'm happy for her. underneath the pine Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
