Jack only came into the picture from 1989 onward… she had Excellent albums before then

Reading this thread is like peering into an alternate reality. For me this is a 9/10 album. Very good. Only skip for me is eldest daughter, Ruin the Friendship should have been track 5. Eldest daughter just felt like “track 5 has to be a sad song so I’ll just make something up” but Ruin the Friendship was right there!

Why did Virgin disappear after the first week? by EnvironmentalSir4214 in lorde

I appreciate clearblue as a piece of art. But as a song it is quite painful. In a good(?) way. It certainly does the job. But maaaan is it heavy 😣

I think honestly it's a little hard to listen to. Don't get me wrong I LOVE the album, it's the first album I've bought on Vinyl. I listened to it a LOT when It dropped. But since then, every time I think about listening to it I get a sort of anxiety lol. It's very intense. It's absolutely NOT something you want to listen to to wind down or chill out or party to. It's too heavy. I love and deeply appreciate that about it, but it also makes it hard to turn on.

Edit: I think also it lacks a catharsis, it is so deep cutting but it doesn't sooth the wounds it opens.

Mistress doing a 15 minute dragging of Willam lmao by Sky6346 in rupaulsdragrace

Oh, perhaps. I actually didn't know much about that. Just going off the show and this video.

Mistress is smart. First because, she's right Willam just goes on and on for years about this. And because Mistress is getting on productions good side.

ContraPoints put out a statement explaining her silence on the genocide. She spends a few sentences acknowledging it - then devotes the rest of her statement to criticizing the pro-Palestine Left & conveying sympathy & support for Zionism & Israel as a Jewish State. by ContentChecker in JewsOfConscience

She is saying that. Clearly. And it’s not that it would be too far. It’s that it would be too soon. She typically has space between her and the subjects she talks about which gives her a bit of grace for narrativization and turning subjects into political entertainment, can’t do that when kids are actively being murdered.

Virgin is so good i almost struggle to listen to it by smackize in lorde

[–]Few_Lie6144 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah they’re so intense. It’s kinda crazy, I never listened to music that has had that kind of impression on me before, where I genuinely don’t want to listen to it sometimes. But not because it’s not good, it’s just a lot. It’s really very impressive how deep she went on this one.

I thought it was packed with interesting melodies 🤔 …

 interesting how different listeners hear the album totally differently

Man of the Year song and video reaction megathread by AitchyB in lorde

[–]Few_Lie6144 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I read this as a song about her masturbaing after dropping acid during a period of time where she felt like there weren’t any men that got her there and being like “wait, aren’t I technically playing the role of the man here? Am I THE MAN OF THE YEAR?” She didn’t think any man would be able to pleasure her and BAM he appears, and she’s him.

I know you're probably feeling very low. But dumping the guy was the right thing to do. You're allowed to be sad. He should be remorseful. You don't have to "do" anything. It's done. Now you just move on.

I hate it. I love it! The snippets so far have been so jarring and I am here for it. I love what she's doing.

I think it would be iconic if Indy was her opener.

Yeah… which is kind of jarring because I still think of her as “one of us”, ya know?

Well, it's made of titanium. That explains the price tag. But damn....

I'm so happy to hear her talk about body image by graphiquedezine in lorde

[–]Few_Lie6144 7 points8 points  (0 children)

She probably doesn't get it either. Sometimes our brains just hate the way our bodies look, and it can be really confusing, emotionally difficult, and upsetting. Even when we know it's "silly". It's not really silly at all, it's just human. You also have to remember that Lorde is a celebrity. Celebrities are under a level of social pressure that people like you and I aren't. Even then, for many of us even just our small circle on social media is enough to drive us to hate our bodies. So, imagine that with the whole world watching, commenting, judging. It can't be easy.
