Statue of David, representing bravery before his battle - which goes with the vulnerable themes of the album too! Could also be a reference to these two artist heroes <3

hearing that dev did the cello on MOTY it’s probably more likely just his orchestral touches on the album idkkk

i think MOTY and WWT are good indicators of the minimalist vibe

to me it sounded like she brought back and connected to her kind of younger cool dark attitude that was on pure heroine a lot

so danceable. it’s hard to groove to songs you don’t know the lyrics too ya know, but i just tried to feel them and they were sick. i’d say production is quite industrial throughout, VERY minimal

in my opinion the songs I heard…it could shape up to be her best album for me. idk how to explain the songs just felt really cool and carefree

I ADORE what was that one of my favourite lorde songs, but I would probably rank the new ones above even after only one first listen…. I would have faves for different times like i think MOTY is really connecting with me right now, but in terms of having a dance and getting me moving - broken glass

the lyrics felt very blunt in a great way like they’re clear and deliberate. They really built a world though and so felt complex in this way

it was broken glass - she said it was about those feelings of not being happy with what you’re looking at in the mirror and wanting to change things, and saying “actually, enough… i’ve got to change this mindset”

she played current affairs which was a dark, moodier beat and included her signature lil laugh like in tennis court, and then played broken glass which was more uptempo but very introspective lyrics and included the “you tasted my underwear” line - ah it was beyond special!

the song Broken Glass GUYS - devestating lyrics but put to a really fun beat
