Pure Heroine: getting the bus home from school, stressed, depressed, and scared because everythingās moving too fast.
Melodrama: stumbling home after a confused and wild night out, breathless and exhausted and alive and empty.
Solar Power (Stoned at the Nail Salon): going home to your parentsā house after college, unsure of who you are, confronting the people you used to be.

"And the dog who comes when I call"
The fact that she wrote this in 2018, lost Pearl (her dog) in 2019, and released this in 2021 just hits hard emotionally... It gives those lines extra weight. Also as a person who's got lots of dogs, it felt like a punch and I had to cuddle with my dogs after this song.

This song kinda feels like the second part to ribs. In ribs she sings about her fear of the future and growing up/old and in this song is a reflection of that. Sheās grown up now, but sheās still scared, even though sheās happy with her life sheās still scared. Scared of living with the choices sheās made, scared sheāll wake up one day and regret it, Scared that itāll be too late for her to do anything about it. Even though sheās scared sheās starting to accept the fear. No longer putting up the facade of āNothing could possibly be wrong, because itās summer and itās perfectā. Sheās finally starting to cool down.

I was 13 when Pure Heroine came out and it was bitter and raging and sharp and apprehensive and just what I needed. I was 17 when Melodrama came out and it was scared and gorgeous and uncertain and anguished and just what I needed. Now Iām 21 and Solar Power is coming out and so far itās subtle and cautious and hopeful and contemplative and just what I need. I donāt know if Lordeās music happens to reflect who I am when I first listen to it, or if my own mood and identity shift to meet hers, but listening to her is always a revelation.

I was 18 when PH came out, and I was blasting energy, starting college, falling in love for the first time, scared of growing up but eager for every experience, and buzzcut season, ribs and world alone were my jams. I would listen on repeat and laugh and cry with those songs.
I was on my early twenties when melodrama came out. I had broken up with the one who I thought was the love of my life, dropped out of college and was fighting depression with all I had and almost didnt survived. Liability and Hard Feelings described my journey into the dark and the path I had to take to love myself again.
As of today, I am 27 yo. I have my own house, I am working retail, I am living with someone I love. I have my cats and pay my bills. I go to my parents house to find comfort. Idk, I feel like she is writing about me, all of her songs describe how I am feeling.
Sometimes this is terrifying.
But I love her.
Thanks, Lorde ā”

the part when Lorde says āCause all the music you loved at 16 youāll grow out ofā doesn't mean that you will stop liking it, it means that It won't mean the same as it meant when you were younger. I love Pure Heroin, Glory and Gore use to describe my feelings and my life, but not anymore. I still love that song very much, but I think I've grown. This son made me realize that I'm not a teen anymore, I'm 23, I'm growing and I'm reflecting on how life has been until now. The perfect transition to adulthood.

How gorgeous is that this comment section is filled with super sad ex 15 year olds who are still sadā¦
But grew up and survived, so we could be here listening Stoned at the nail salon
Currently Iām far from home and everything that makes me happy. This song makes me want to return Home and just ride and ride through the green mountains with the people I love, get back in the car with my hair all messed up, feeling safe enough because what I need is with me

āSpend all the evenings you can with the people who raised youā this line makes me tear up every time. When I was younger, I hated being home and spending time with my parents because I felt like a loser and wanted to be out like all the other kids. But as you get older, you realize family and love matters. You also see your parents get older, and in the back of your mind you know there will be a day when you wonāt be able to spend evenings with them anymore. So itās important to enjoy them while you can. Gorgeous song.

I have been so lucky to be the same age as Lorde, she has captured my life beautifully with her albums
Pure heroine: 16, miserable, stressed, wanted to leave my hometown and meet new people; this album was an escape for me
Melodrama: 20, finally found my people, making so many memories, feeling alive, finding excitement in uncertaintiesĀ
Solar Power: 24, moved back to my childhood home, wanting more but content and at peace with who I am and who I hold closest to me, unsure what direction to take my life in
