Tbf 2013 Lorde was fucking insufferable. Glad whatever beef there was going on is over now. :xgiggle:

She honestly had a beef with everyone, teen Lorde was really something else :rollin:

Can’t tell if she’s really thanking her or just saying ‘thanks Lana because if it wasn’t for you being around to criticise I wouldn’t have made royals’ 


Lana really was living in her mind rent free back then. :blush3:

I never connected with Lorde herself, but Pure Heroine is a masterful record and one of the best from the 2010s. I saw her last year with my boyfriend and when she did songs from this album the crowd went insane. Very beautiful show.

could anyone elaborate further on this?

In 2013, during an interview where she discussed her album and Royals, she remarked, 'I was listening to a lot of Lana Del Rey, etc.' Lorde went on to critique the prevailing music trends of that time, particularly lyrics centered around driving expensive cars and flaunting diamonds which is stuff Lana was singing about.
 

She expressed that these themes were the antithesis of her inspiration for 'Royals' as she couldn't relate to such a lavish lifestyle. This comment was seen as a direct critique of Lana and sparked a feud. If I recall correctly she may have mentioned the glamorisation of violence thing too.

 

Lorde seemed to miss the intentional cinematic quality of Born To Die, which embraced the essence of Hollywood Americana. She also appeared to overlook the fact that a substantial portion of the lyrical content on 'Born To Die' was meant to be ironic. So that was Lorde’s mistake and taking an unnecessary dig at Lana. 

 

So is Lorde really thanking Lana?, or is she being shady about the whole situation and the fact she got a hit song from mocking Lana’s music? It isn’t really clear.

Idk I understand that there was some beef but especially since Lorde released Hold No Grudge, it feels genuine

Ribs deserves to be in a Top 20 list for best song ever made in the history of music recording.
 

There’s a lot of music where I go “hmm, they should’ve done this with the synths and that with the background vocals instead” but Ribs is rare, uneditable gold. 
 

Can’t believe it’s 10 years since this record dropped. I was in 11th grade and I remember getting Ribs for free when Apple had their free “iTunes song of the week.” This entire album poetically encapsulates teenagehood, loneliness, and the Fall Season so perfectly. Thank U Lorde + PH for being there when no one else was.
