Robo Ga 14,492 Posted June 24, 2018 Share Posted June 24, 2018 8 minutes ago, ItsTommyBitch said: 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. This is the perfectly written response 🤖⚡️ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
River 91,044 Posted June 24, 2018 Share Posted June 24, 2018 Nah, Lorde's lyrics are like the lyrics that I used to write when I was 12.. this is why mostly teenagers likes her and thinks she's the messiah.. she's very average and giving some "I'm better than you cause I'm soo serious and artistic" vibe.. Lana is just cooler, she knows her flaws and just go on with it, she has so many good lyrics and so many songs that you can relate, she's just so much better.. but of course she has some fails like all the rest.. like Woodstock lol Je ne parle pas français but I can padam if you like Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

How ridiculous. I’m 27 and think melodrama is brilliantly written. I wonder how Lorde has an AOTY nomination and Lana doesnt. Surely the Grammys committee is not devised of teens. Writer in the dark is better than any Lana song...ever. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BBhomemaker 5,611 Posted June 24, 2018 Share Posted June 24, 2018 No Lorde have an aspect more poetic on the world and relationships Lana is more romantic which is different in the way both write, she's more into emotions Lords is more into introspection As a fan of both I don't search and find the same things on each other. I enjoy them both in their way Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vitleysingur 13,668 Posted June 24, 2018 Share Posted June 24, 2018 Nah. Lana writes about daddies while Lorde writes about boys. Dreams of you and me are in the dirt. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can express an opinion without putting someone’s music down (while also oddly self-congratulating ) I’m gonna be honest, I think you probably haven’t really listened to most of lordes music...and that’s fine! But juvenile? Cooler than others attitude? Where? These just seem like baseless insults. Anyway, I’m actually a full fledged Lana Stan and prefer her music. What is your favorite Lana song?

I listened to Melodrama, it's just not my thing, I felt awkward to listen to this.. just like let's say early Charlie XCX songs, like Break The Rules, idk, I'm not a kid anymore and all this young love and young rebelling is just not for me. Lorde was really arrogant in many interviews and also I get this vibe from her videos, her performances, this is what I feel when I watch her and read her interviews.. Dark Paradise because it's very personal, I lost my mom and this song expressing everything that I feel..

But I think their styles remain very distinct, mostly how they write and sing. WAVE?? You're being a little generous, sis. This forum has always given Lana waaaaay too much credit.
