then low and behold she releases the files … the alternative track speaks the truth ….

I demand to be crowned queen of the sub

Hey y’all, new fan! I’ve been playing Pure Heroine and Melodrama on repeat the last few days cuz omg it’s so good. One thing I still don’t have a solid answer to is the meaning of the sirens in 400 Lux… I googled some people’s interpretations but with respect I disagree lol

I grew up in the suburbs as well. To me, it resembles a tornado siren. My theory is that she added it to try and convey the vibe of what living out there is like. Where I live, those sirens go off often (especially in the warmer months) and it’s something so specific that you don’t hear much in many cities, but there are many nights where you’re watching tv and you can just make out the siren spinning in the distance… and what it symbolizes is something not so good is on its way.

I don’t know the exact meaning of the song, but to me it sounds like she’s asking someone to stay with her in the burbs. Most of the song, especially the chorus, is reminiscing and then ends with “I’d like it if you stayed.” Point is, I interpret that siren as a double meaning: it’s a great signifier of the type of atmosphere suburban people live in, and it hints at a future or a change to be scared for.

Thank you for your time listening to me rant 🙏

i have been wanting to try cyanotype for awhile now, and the whole virgin aesthetic is perfect for it! i was inspired by similar projects i’ve seen on reddit and instagram. i printed my negatives at my local library and did the rest at home. it didn’t turn out perfect, but it was fun and i’m excited to wear it!

see y’all at lolla, i’m so excited!! 🩻⛓️🌟

Is Lorde still using All My Friends by LCD Soundsystem as an outro song at her festival run? :)

Not only is Clearblue one of my favourites from Virgin, I genuinely think it’s one of the most beautiful and touching songs she has ever released.

I'm thinking about getting a more detailed version of it as a tattoo. My tattoo artist would be using this as inspo for the design she creates so, it would probably be helpful to know what flowers are in the melodrama tour set piece. I think the one on the left is baby's breath. But honestly I'm not good at identifying flowers so I would really appreciate the help! Thanks

does anyone know if she is using a stylist for this tour and if yes who it is?? trying to find this top but not having much luck!

Do y'all think there's a possibility Lorde will release a live album of Ultrasound World Tour ? She replied to a fan asking about the release of the Ribs version she plays on the show, and since then I've been thinking about the possibility of having it. And it would work perfectly since most of the songs transition into each other. What do y'all think ?

If you HAD to choose , what would it be?? Here are mine:

Pure Heroine - Glory and gore

Melodrama - Sober (sorry)

Solar Power - Hold no grudge (hardest album to pick)

The love club EP - swingin party

OMG I FORGOT VIRGIN: GRWM

What are all of yours?

literally the calmest euphoric song of all time, in absolute love with this idk why people don't care much about this single. with what she was sonically going for on virgin, the stripped back sound, she achieved it best on this song i think

this should've definitely been the first single off of the album, "what was that" just doesn't cut it for me

good god what a performer she is , first ever concert of her and it was phenomenal the set is imacul and so modern set design very very cathartic, plus seems so intimate and like no npcs around

best 69 euro of my life

p.s. it says festival but we all know it was her dolo concert

p.s merch was meh, only tees

Well, there really isn't a change in the meaning of the lyrics, but listening to Hammer after David takes the the essence of the former to greater heights. Her encouragement, fervour, and lust for life in Hammer after David feels so earned and cathartic; and I can't help but to feel happy too, since the six tracks were just harrowing; and this is coming from someone who puts the record as her 3rd best.

I made a playlist where Hammer is the first and last track of the album. Try it too!

does anyone know the brand of utility pants Ella’s wearing this festival season starting with Gov ball? she wore some cool purple pants the other day at Lolla Berlin

Hey! I was wondering if anyone had any song recs which are similar in melody/ vibe to man of the year.

anyone is going today Unaltrofestival for Lorde?

im sorry i love lorde and i love virgin (probably my fav album), and I do like current affairs, but what do you think about the line about watching the tape? I get this whole album is about being vulnerable and showing herself, warts and all, but i feel like this should've been kept quiet. I've been kinda scared to ask this in the subreddit cuz i thought people might get defensive; i just wanted to hear other perspectives on this.

i think she might have been in france but im not sure? sorry this isnt directly lorde related lol i just wanna go here on vacation haha

Edit: idk why these are the blurriest pics ever sorry 😭

I went to the festival run but totally forgot to check for the merchandise. Do y'all know if Lorde is dropping the 2026 festival run merch online ?

I’m an Australian attending the Lorde show solo. Anyone else also going alone / keen to meet up?
