I remember the disappointment I felt when the album first came out and I wasn’t what I expected. But a few months after I was on a walk, the sun was shining and I was listening to the album and all of a sudden it just clicked. Like at an instant it made sense and I understood it. I think it’s such a beautiful album and I love how reflective it is. So incomparable to Melodrama- I enjoy it as it stands alone

I think people close to her age really appreciated the album, the feeling of not really making any big strides in your mid 20s was very connecting. It definitely made me feel less isolated and in the end I connected with a lot more people who universally share the mindset that you ‘had to be making adult moves!’ without any real blueprint on where or how to start! Just live in the moment ✨

I think solar power is a very situational album. If you feeling sad and depressed its definitely not for you, but when you start feeling happy and start appreciating life you can really hear and understand what the album is about. If im honest its probably my favorite album from her because it just feels so warm and cozy to me and its a beautiful album.

I actually really liked the album, it was healing in a sense. Of course I love Melodrama and Pure Heroine, but Solar Power means something to me too. Not every album needs a smash hit or high energy to it for it to be a good record [to everyone], I like it's more chill and low key sound to it. My favourite songs are Mood Ring, Secrets From a Girl (Who's Seen It All), Fallen Fruit, The Man With the Axe, and especially, ESPECIALLY Oceanic Feeling. And for that one review to call it self indulgent kinda makes no sense, every artist deserves to make a self indulgent project, it is their art after all.

What I enjoy about this album, is that for me it’s about the good and bad sides of healing. Not every aspect of self-love/self-discovery is easy; healing from your past is hard, and I think this album touches on a lot of levels.

Reading people saying that this album grew on them is heart-warming. In my case, I liked the album just listening It once (probably bc I'm as weird as her or I love the summer Idk) but some people realised they liked It later and that's beautiful to hear. I'm not scared to say that I like Solar Power more than Pure Heroine.

i’m a massive lorde fan and honestly solar power is my favourite album by her. i’ve got a lot of personal connection to it but i’m not sure it just clicks with me i love the vibe of it so much

i vividly remember being on twitter ready to rant about how much i loved solar power only to see it being called a flop album or whatevs which really confused me. i loved having a beachy vibes album to cheer me up after folklore and evermore.
looking back, i think one of the main reasons it flopped is how late into the summer it was released. if solar power was brought out by the beginning of june then people would've received it way better as a feel good tune that's bringing us out of the pandemic. by the time it was released the 'novelty' of summer kind of wore off as people were easing into it. furthermore the actual record was released so late into summer that there was barely any time to appreciate it- even for me who loved it! i just wished someone would've had the hindsight and got it ready a little sooner.
i do call solar power my fav lorde album though and i stand by that :)

I started liking solar power once my life started feeling normal again after the pandemic. Once I sat down to read it's lyrics I loved it. It feels more mature that the other two albums, and it shows how much she has grown as a person and artist. It's sad that it didn't get the recognition it deserved, it's a beautiful work of art.

This album is very relatable to me, as much as melo and PH. I honestly think the people who criticize it as a satirical album without the satire just don't have the perspective to understand how someone can love the sun and nature so much as Ella does in Solar Power. The album just doesn't speak to them, instead they find it absurd or whatever

i love solar power so much, when melodrama came out i was in a different phase musically so i didnt rly look into it but i always loved pure heroine since it came out, so i was glad that this album brought me back to her and i listen to it a lot
i love that it has things i relate to along with being rly personal and specific to her, and just in general i love the sound of it all

This record is so juicy in my opinion! When I first heard it, I admit I was confused. However, this album was my most listened to music by far throughout the year. It’s such great soft background music. Each listen for me felt fresh. I never got tired. I can listen to this forever, it’s just so beautiful and well crafted.
Then seeing her perform this album live was incredible. Her rich deep voice and acoustic sound was just infectious.

this album made me actually really happy. it has this gentle, contemplative vibe to it. she sounds so much more relax & not to anxious & frenzied like she did in melodrama. it makes me feel okey feeling alone & that emotions are just visitors - they come & go but that doesn't mean that things aren't going to be okay

For some unknown reason, I loved this album. I love when artist do an album of self reflection as it let's you into their actual self and who they really are. I listened to this non-stop for a couple months

the path, fallen fruit, and oceanic feeling are the heroes of the standard edition. truly think it’s a better ep than a full lp

I feel like people were expecting something specifically for L3 and they didn't get what they wanted. That's probably one reason why people were so disappointed. I myself am an electronic hoe so I naturally gravitate to her other albums. However, I feel that the lyrics on Solar Power really stand out. The Man with the Axe is a great track along with Stoned.

I agree with pretty much all you said! I think this album was necessary for Lorde’s path on reinventing herself and prove to the critics she’s capable of different sounds, while also acting as a natural progression of her character. If anything her fans should understand the search for approval and feeling of unworthiness that Pure Heroine and Melodrama represented, and finally achieving peace within herself with Solar Power.
Additionally, I so agree with the real gems of the album being the bonus tracks. Hold No Grudge is just so…mmm, I just love it. Great vid! ☺️

i loved your take on this album! solar power is definitely my favourite album from lorde. don't get me wrong, i LOVED pure heroine and i think melodrama is one of the best albums of the 2010s, but the lyricism/poetry and aesthetic of SP just made me feel glad that she's finally healing and is growing as a person. i love how personal and introspective she gets and i don't think it's fair of some fans to write this album off just because it's not as relatable or commercial as the other two. i think its the best album to listen to in the summer (or any time of year really!)
p.s. i think the 'i thought i was a genius, but now i'm 22" line is one of the greatest lyrics she's ever written, that whole song is pure poetry <3
