Lorde

[BFisherr]

In true Lorde style, a full length version of "California" is floating around, presume this is the next single.

Just watched. Surely she's the GOAT Hot Ones guest after that? Didn't even flinch at Da Bomb, no sips of water, turning the interview round and interviewing Sean. Pure hero.

Paul Rudd will take some beating for that crown

Dax Shepard, Halle Berry, Dua, and Zac Efron are also all up there! Probably my favourite YouTube show, Sean Evans is an absolute treasure.

Couldn't agree more. Also thought Shia LaBeouf was a great watch too.

Guy Fieri didn’t touch the sides!

Can't believe Lorde reads this thread...

 

“I haven’t made a Jack Antonoff record,” the singer said. “I’ve made a Lorde record and he’s helped me make it and very much deferred to me on production and arrangement. Jack would agree with this. To give him that amount of credit is frankly insulting.” She called the narrative — which has also included speculation about the pair’s romantic and sexual life — “retro” and “sexist.”

You best go get some snacks and a warm blanket.

Already on Apple Music. Kind of a hybrid of the first two songs although with more of a chorus. Decent but still not an out and out earworm. I fear for this album causing any momentum she had coming out of Melodrama to flatline, if these three are the most radio-friendly tracks on it.

i'm gonna ask her to rank the Radiohead albums from 1 to 9

[Spindles]

New track is pleasant enough, looking forward to hearing it in context with the rest of the album.

[FloorFiller]

Songs ‘ight. I know it’s been apparent for a while now that this is the direction the whole album’s gonna be going in but I still get a bit bummed when none of these songs pop off. Definitely more of a smoke weed and chill album than a get fucked up and dance one.

Meh. Her academy tour has almost completely sold out so she seems to have done alright so far. Might mean she's not projected to go onto being a Glastonbury headliner or stadium filler but I doubt anyone harboured hopes of that still.

Plus she's a shoo-in to top the charts with this album, unless beaten by Dave's fourth week sales or the new Jake Bugg album. If Jake Bugg charts ahead of her, I promise you I will be insufferable.

This ‘intimate tour’ next May would work better as a tour of beaches at the end of August. ‘End of the summer’ vibes everywhere.

She is touring some pretty summery ampitheatres. Just not in the UK.

Perth:

Brisbane:

Croatia:

Santa Barbara;

This song is more like it for me. Consider my interest in her new album reignited.

But what about Donda

Fuck sake. The O2 monopoly is such a piss take.

Although to be fair, not sure what venues like that the UK even has. Scarborough Open Air Theatre, maybe.

Yeah I think it's just that and the stage they put up by the tower in Blackpool.

This fucking country man.

This sounds so 90s. Almost like a Atomic Kitten / Spice Girls song.

Edinburgh and Glasgow both have them - it's where they hold the Summer Sessions.
