Morphine Prince 105,848 Posted August 20, 2021 Share Posted August 20, 2021 The album isn’t bad but it’s not for me. Disappointed because this was one of the albums I was most excited for this year. There are a few highlights but I don’t find myself returning to this album. I‘ll stick to her first two albums. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NYC Monster 262 Posted August 20, 2021 Share Posted August 20, 2021 Fantastic album, I don't understand the negativity. This album makes me feel like I'm cruising by myself with the top down, the ocean air is sweet and the sun is setting in my rearview mirror. Fallen Fruit is the best song Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Nook 37,807 Posted August 20, 2021 Share Posted August 20, 2021 Maybe because I’m a Cali girl but I love and relate a lot to this album Uh Red Wine... Convict... Gah Gah... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillieGOAT 5,216 Posted August 20, 2021 Share Posted August 20, 2021 Ok so… it suffers the same initial listening issue as the other recent Jack Antonoff-produced albums over the last few years.. its very same-y. Love her voice and writing, it’s just going to take a while for me to differentiate and appreciate the individual colors of the tracks. I’m not making any judgments yet, because I hated folklore on first listen and have since come around to it in a big way. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ignotus 1,404 Posted August 20, 2021 Share Posted August 20, 2021 one of the highlights of the album is Oceanic Feeling. I just get a Ray of Light vibe whenever it plays Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeJudas 6,490 Posted August 20, 2021 Share Posted August 20, 2021 I'm going to support her even tho I don't particularly love this album and I already bought it so I'm stuck with it either way Thank u Lorde I love it AOTY2022 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackout19 11,823 Posted August 20, 2021 Share Posted August 20, 2021 Sorry, Lorde.. It's a no so far. Her first 2 albums were really great, but on this album I don't like one song. i'm a powerpuff girl. ○● Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mightyriverz 2,604 Posted August 20, 2021 Share Posted August 20, 2021 i don't know what's going on with the gals now, cause they're serving some early (Whoa) Nelly Furtado vibes, but I'm enjoying this Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
alsemanche 93,755 Posted August 20, 2021 Author Share Posted August 20, 2021 Finally heard the album and I LOVE IT??? I was really worried after seeing people's reactions but I really love the album. It's everything I was expecting. It's such a vibe. I know I will be replaying this at least twice today. Fallen Fruit is INCREDIBLE oh my god???? And Stoned at the Nail Salon remai s one of my favorites (I actually think I love it more in the album). Also I haven't seen anyone mention The Man with the Axe but it's also SOOO good. My favs on first listen: -The Path -Stoned at the Nail Salon -Fallen Fruit -Secrets from a Girl (Who's Seen it All) -The Man with the Axe -Big Star -Mood Ring -Oceanic Feeling That's a lot of favorites actually Anyway I'M SO HAPPY THAT SHE DELIVERED Soft, soothing, and succulent Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

MelbHawker 6,583 Posted August 20, 2021 Share Posted August 20, 2021 Fallen Fruit is a stunning song.. I totally overlooked it yesterday when I first listened to it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eido 3,676 Posted August 20, 2021 Share Posted August 20, 2021 I love this album honestly, I am glad she just did what she wanted and that she doesn't care about the charts or what people expect of her It's very organic and I love the fact that guitars are omnipresent I think those who don't like it, just don't like the fact that Lorde wanted to create something different with hippie/chill vibes and wanted her to remain forever in her dark mood. Also it wasn't called solar power for nothing... But people grow up and I'm sure you'll find someone else to like who will eventually change too.

tyler k 5,330 Posted August 20, 2021 Share Posted August 20, 2021 Just finished and damn I really loved it. Favorites: The Path, California, Fallen Fruit, Man with the Axe, Mood Ring, Oceanic Feeling mmmy name ~isn't~ aliceee Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karl 3,406 Posted August 20, 2021 Share Posted August 20, 2021 I do like the album, and I appreciate the summer hippie vibe, but I feel like it would be even better with a more euphoric sound, like a summer festival rather than a summer nap on the beach. The spoken word part of Secrets of a Girl by Robyn is amazing! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
