sipthistea 21,099 Posted June 24, 2018 Share Posted June 24, 2018 It feels like Lorde took many ideas from Lana when she created Melodrama. All this dreamy, introspective image is just too similar to Lana's own perspective. Do you think she got inspired by Lana's amazing ideas? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matangi 3,050 Posted June 24, 2018 Share Posted June 24, 2018 She absolutely was one of many female pop artists who rode the wave that Lana created with Born to Die. But I think their styles remain very distinct, mostly how they write and sing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matangi 3,050 Posted June 24, 2018 Share Posted June 24, 2018 However I do think Lana created a MASSIVE undercurrent in pop music that has many imitators. Lorde is very original Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ItsTommyBitch 12,640 Posted June 24, 2018 Share Posted June 24, 2018 No. Lana lives in high fantasy, autobiographical fiction, nostalgia, atmosphere, etc. Lorde is a lot more tangible, but both have a focus on heightened emotion, drama, its just that Lana blurs the lines between what's real historically in order to show that emotion, Lorde may dramatize, exaggerate, etc. but she isn't concocting cautionary tales, idealizing concepts, symbols, icons, and nostalgia in order to do so I would say I think of Lana as like a post-impressionist/expressionist artist. I'm not sure what I would categorize Lorde as. Their lyrics and image, methods are just very different, they also make totally distinct music and sing different - and their trajectories to fame were also totally different, which is fitting. "Dreamy and introspective" are too vague and general of terms. 私自身もこの世の中も誰もかれもが, どんなに華やかな人生でも, どんなに悲惨な人生でも, いつかは変貌し, 破壊され、消滅してしまう. すべてがもともとこの世に存在しない一瞬の幻想なのだから Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Dreamy and introspective" are too vague and general of terms. hit the nail on the head. but to me lana would be more of a symbolist or romanticist. i guess it depends what you pay attention to! Lana references a loooottt and definitely operates from the past and from cultural mythos, where as Lorde is very grounded in her own life, even so self-aware as to call her album focused on heartbreak "Melodrama," while Lana's heartbreak is called "Ultraviolence" and "Born to Die"-- unabashed dramatization of her emotions.
