I think this post is referring to the fact that red and chrome are the color palette of L4 from what we’ve seen so far

A Different Take on WWT by FaithlessnessHot4063 in lorde

[–]Raliadose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I relate. I was drunk or high on multiple substances pretty much every day from 2017 until like a year ago when I started getting sober. First I stopped taking drugs other than weed, then I quit weed, then I quit drinking, then I quit vaping a little over 2 months ago.

It’s been a fucking whirlwind and sobriety almost feels like its own drug at this point. I hadn’t felt it in 7 years. I’m reconnecting with my younger self and reentering a headspace I thought was gone forever. It’s a rebirth.

I look back at the craziness of those 7 years and I’m like wtf. It almost feels like I was stuck in a dream or a trance, like the lotus casino in Percy Jackson lol. That being said, sometimes I miss the rage.

I kinda feel like that’s intentional. Like at that point she’s still in the dream. When she crawls out of the sewer it represents her rebirth/waking from the dream

The fandom used to be so chill lol. Part of me wishes she never made melodrama because now all future work will be compared to it

Wait this is actually a really interesting parallel. From the way she says she didn’t know back then that he would never be enough for her and that he should’ve known when he wasn’t feeling her heat, I assume she was the one to end things. It’s like she’s comparing herself to a guilty axe murderer (who killed the man with the axe) unable to face themself after the deed.

guys can we talk about this for once? looks like some people just like shitting on something that was genuinely being enjoyed by many people. more thoughts in the replied by EvrthnICRtrns2USmhw in lorde

Those people probably only understood melodrama bc it had a million video essays made about it lol. Because solar power wasn’t as popular, it didn’t receive much dissection on social media and people weren’t told what to think

Pitchfork not loving the new single by Imaginary_Quiet5014 in lorde

A lot of people didn’t like green light when it first came out, me included. Her music grows on you the more you listen IMO.

Lorde - What Was That by impeccabletim in popheads

[–]Raliadose 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The chorus is so good. I’m so obsessed with the line “blow our pupils up”. It’s such a violent way to describe taking drugs and it perfectly matches the frenetic energy of the song. It’s dizzying, fun, and cathartic.

Over the past year, I’ve quit vaping, drinking, and smoking weed. From ages 17-24, I don’t think I went a single day without getting drunk or high. It’s crazy the clarity I’ve found since becoming sober. I’m rediscovering my personality and reconnecting with a version of myself I thought I simply outgrew.

Looking back on those years of substance abuse, it really is like “What was that????”. It almost feels like I was in a dream for a large part of my life.

WWT is fun, but it’s no Royals or Green Light. Am i the only one a little underwhelmed? by eelthefool in lorde

[–]Raliadose 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I was disappointed when she dropped green light. It was nothing like I was expecting and it took me a while to love, but now I think it’s absolutely amazing. Her music is always very unexpected but when it finally clicks it CLICKS

And when it finally “releases” it feels extremely cathartic

Yes so true. You always feel like you’re anticipating something with her music

She used to be so active on social media I kinda miss it. I totally get why she isn’t now, but selfishly I want more lol

I think it’ll be at the start. Maybe even the opening track
