In case you missed it,Lordehas dropped her new single, What Was That.

Ribs is a 10/10 because its unique synth production and layered vocals help give the song depth.

Id never discount the lyrics, though.

Her vocal abilities shine in her delivery and articulation.

Her angst, urgent tone forces you to feel her impatience.

I regard this song as one of the best pop songs of all time.

Taylor Swift The Tortured Poets Department

The two were already married, considering the fandom’s strong presence on the blogging platform.

From the moody, critically acclaimed project came Yellow Flicker Beat.

Its an alternative synth-pop song that relies on heavy imagery and haunting vocals.

Mariah Carey and Harry Styles

When Supercut begins, you think itll be a simple piano ballad.

In true Lorde fashion, however, the dance beat kicks in just in time for the prechorus.

Supercut differs in that Lordes stuck in the past, reminiscing about an ex.

Lorde featured on her single cover for What Was That, with her hair in braids and her face covered with water.

She blends themes of nostalgia with a minimalist electronic beat.

The then-rising star reflects on her success, fame, and the politics of the music industry.

Lordes early work made a major impression because of her introspective lyrics paired with sophisticated beats.

Lordes early work made a major impression because of her introspective lyrics paired with sophisticated beats.

Its brilliant that she retooled her sound for this new era that embraced the idea of metamorphosis.

Lorde

Its slightly R&B leaning, but still has that familiar synth electronic sound Lordes known for.

Plus,it was Lordes first collaboration as a solo artist; she knows how to make a debut.

Hot take: I understand why she wanted to create a tender a cappella moment.

The lyrics are so vulnerable, and they deserve to fill a still, reverent space.

Lorde takes a confessional approach to Liability.

In Liability, her vocals and lyricism drive the song home.

Secrets From A Girl is a reminder thatbrighter days are possible and perspective is everything.

It works for a beach day, or a rainy day inside.

Its a guitar-driven track thats reminiscent of early 2000s pop.

Lorde was only 16 years old when she dropped this critique of the gaudy, upper-class lifestyle.

As forLorde, it truly did become the beginning of her own reign in pop music royalty.
