I'm 14 right now and Lorde announced her new single like a few hours ago. I was on Twitter and so many tweets were like, 'Lorde is coming back' and stuff. To be honest, I never listened to her music before. But after this, I just thought to give it a try and now it's 3am and I'm listening to all her music and I can't stop!! It's just so good!

"I live in a hologram with you" is like a punch to your soul. You realize all the blissful moments you've had with each other: all the late-night adventures sneaking out, kissing in someone else's bathroom, talking until the sun wakes up; are all just fleeting memories that will never be a part of reality. At the end of the day, you both come home to a house you hate and live a life you dread. It's always too good to be true.

So when I heard this song live. it literally changed my life. Lorde is explaining being a youth in the 21st century. having to cut your hair when you grow up... because you can't get a job with long hair. getting your cut during buzz cut season. the final act of your youth. the men on the news, covering only negativity to the public, she explains how hearing that changes your world, because when you are introduced to the horriors of the real world, the world all around you begins to change. She recalls her memories with her friends where nothing is wrong but nothing is true. The truth she sees is the explosions on TV, not what she does in her holographic world of being a teenager . She realizes how small her world is, and how small her experiences are such as, freedom, friendships, youth. because She understands that living it up with her friends by the pool is a fucking joke compared to the real fear out there, whether that's being a teenager fearing the loss of youth, or a teenager in Syria fearing being shot at or bombed. She is telling us, none of us are real here.. because we distract ourselves from the terror we all experience, and cover it up with trickery. Lorde feels everything, I think we all do... we just are afraid.

I remember playing this while travelling in the car in 4 am or something. There was something magical playing this album in early mornings while it's dark and dawn was coming. Like you're above everything and everywhere. This album enshrines some grand feeling. I don't know. There is something.

my older sisters best friend, since childhood, was diagnosed with cancer in about highschool. she went through chemo therapy of course and all that went with it. she was a soccer player on the same team as my sister and they were her family. she was a legend. she beat cancer towards the end of highschool and went on to a nursing school because she wanted to help people. unfortunately, her cancer came back and she died before she got to graduate. everytime i listen to this song i start to cry because of this. i was young and barely knew anything about her, only that she and my sister were inseparable. my sister recently shaved her head in honor of her lost friend. i can’t help but think of them whenever i listen to this. it’s such a beautiful song, and truly can mean different things to different people. my sister lives on with her buzz cut for her best friend and i will stay crying to lorde songs.

"I remember when your head caught flame" is from when she accidentally set her friend's hair on fire in a Chemistry experiment but he laughed it off and wasn't mad. The song is about summer (which she has said), It's about the feeling of summer vacation, when you fall out of routine and have all that freedom it's like you're living in a haze, everything is good and you want to stay out all day. "And I'll never go home again." She doesn't want this peaceful time to end, but she knows that it will, she's only blocking it out of her mind. I like it because even though it's a song about summer it's not about surfing and bikinis, It's about the end of school feeling that anyone still in school understands on a deep level. Summer has a different way of life that's for sure, your life moves to a totally different beat and everything feels strange and good.
