LORDE

I’m not sure about who’s my favorite artist in the world, but I think one of my favorites is LORDE. She is a New Zealand singer and writer who was born the same year that I was born (1996), and she got famous really young, with only 17 years old. She sings pop music, with a little of electro and indie-rock, and her voice is gorgeous.

“Royals”, her most famous hit made her the youngest artist to win a Grammy Award in 2014. Personally, I think that’s her most commercial song and I prefer her underground music, especially the firsts of her career.

What I most like about Lorde are the lyrics of her songs. Lorde’s mother is poet, and Lorde always says in the interviews that she is the person who most has inspired her to write her own lyrics. They talk about her painful love life, the youth and the normal life of people like her or like me… Well, now that she is so famous, I think we have very different lifes, but not that much 3 years ago.

In July, Lorde made her new album public: “Melodrama”, so I’m going to hear it and tell you how it is.
