The “ch ch” in Perfect Places was such a masterful moment in terms of songwriting and lyricism
I got scared the first time i heard it
LMANOSJBBDBJD YESS😭😍
what does it mean???
@@therisiab5841 a camera shutter - she’s trying to catch the perfect places in pictures
@@therisiab5841 honestly my take is pretty dark. She says “I’ll blow my brains out to the radio” and then the “ch ch” is the same noise as cocking a gun. When you really look into the lyrics of Perfect Places, it’s coming almost from a place of desperation to find happiness. It’s one thing I love about Melodrama in it’s entirety is that it’s an open letter about love, loss, grief, and acceptance
WE NEED LORDE THIS YEAR
Feel like shit just want her back
*every day
P L E A S E
YES YES YES AND RELEASE NO BETTER ON SPOTIFY
RayanJaberrr that’s my all time favorite song, meaning - the best song i’ve ever heard in my life 😭😭😭
On The Louvre she used her own heartbeats in the song
is it true?
@@felipe-dm6gb yes
Factss
@@felipe-dm6gb yes, hear the bass, that’s her heartbeat even the lyrics already said it.
@@neontyler6663 oh my god now it hits sooo over the top
Like David Bowie said "Lorde is the future of music" ❤️
He's said it when?
I couldn't found it
Yeah, coz she will release a new album in 2046 lol
@@sanboo5228 no, her actual work is in the future already and she will realease an album when she feels like it . Not because she feels pressure. It's art and art sometimes take a long long time. But this generation wants everything right now! Learn to respect times.
@@Harieus search "David Bowie on Lorde" there's an article in The Guardian! I can't send the link this doesn't let me send links.
@@sanboo5228 she’s futuristic.
The long fade out in Supercut actually represent how those memories she's talking about eventually will dissapear, both the good and bad ones. Even if you don't want it to happen.
Yes! Its like a fading magic, a fading love, and that thing is depressing..
What about The Louvre tho
Omg thank u, I didn't know that
idk but i looked at the album as if it tells a one whole story. green light was the song for the potential break up, and tracks 2,3,4 about reminiscing the “good times”. 5 is the actual break -up, with lorde blaming herself for everything that happened. 6,7,8 is about her undergoing the phase of moving on.
with supercut, she remembers everything - all the good times (after she “found the way to be without her babe”). the last part of this song is a fade out, and you can hear lorde saying “in my head I do everything right” repeatedly.
i think the reason why she’s saying the lyric over and over is because there is a part of her that is starting to blame herself again. it’s like her way of saying *i did everything right, but why did it (the break up) happen? why did he leave?*
this makes sense cause the next song starts with “I’m a liability”
and yep, liability (reprise) is the most important part of the album because in this part, she finally learns the idea of self-love and acceptance. you can tell it when she said “but you’re not what you thought you were”
The album is about youth, Lorde dissapeared for 3/4 years to just live her life. Then, she comes to tell us the stories and the dramas that she lived in those years, the breakup of a long relationship, the partying, friendships, the hookups and all the feelings involved
Liability was actually real, at one point she really was crying in a taxi because she felt like a liability not only to her lover but to the people close to her
"The truth is, I am a toy that people enjoy 'till all of the tricks don't work anymore"
imagine the next album she dissapeared for 4/5 years and lived, im craving for her new music so bad
@@cotufasinsal I NEED THIS ALBUM TO COME OUT THIS YEAR OR IM GONNA BURST BRO

e o Mario faz tudo
Mário tá ouvindo??? Sou eu aplaudindo seu comentário, obrigado hahahaha
Anjo que fala, agradecido!! ❤️
That look on the thumbnail is telling me "I know you want it, and here it is."
If you pay attention, Sober and Sober II are lirically conneceted. One ends asking "can you feel it? can you feel it?" and the other starts answering "you asked if I was feeling it, I'm psycho high". Sober is the party, it's the high, the king and queen of the weekend taking pills and having thrills, "but what will we do when we're sober?". Sober II is after the party, when the lights are on and everyone's gone home, but who am I? Left here with my feelings, sober. (the melodrama)
Same with Liability and its reprise "I'm a Liability" and then "you're not what you thought you were"
OH MY GOD thank you for this!!!
Same for Sober and Supercut, “I’ll pretend I don’t see every ribbon you use to tie yourself to me,” and then, “These ribbons wrap me up”
But I didn’t catch this connection between Sober and Sober II…. It amazes me I’ve listened to this album countless times and still find out new connections.
@@Bloooo95 yeessss she's perfection
Ummmmmmmmmmm THANK YOU KING! I never eem knew dis
Lorde was robbed - Melodrama deserved AOTY at the Grammys :(
It didn't deserve album of the year, because it's the album of the century😌
@@frankyfish3078 didn’t deserved album of the century, because its album of the millennium 😌
@@marcol.6913 agreed😌
As much as I love Melodrama, I'll give that to Kendrick.
@@nullsurfer7331 said no one
This album is a masterpiece!!!

@@horrorminecraftfan4477 im not clicking on that link
agreed, after several years, it's still my fave album :(( I miss Lorde
Melodrama is everything. Period!
ruclips.net/video/Ziz-JKASEn4/видео.html
I don’t think other albums were able to top Melodrama back in 2017. It’s still one of my favs ‘till now.
@@hanz28 facts. So true.
@@hanz28 factsss
Preach!
I gotta tell ya, Liability described me soooo well when it came out. My ex would constantly call me "too much", "too emotional", a burden, etc. He made me feel like a liability because I was dealing with a mental illness and was in therapy. He would only come to me when it was convenient for him. And when he got bored or felt like I was "too much", he'd leave. And that cycle would continue. So yeah. That song holds dear to me.
I didn't realize that the same thing happened to me till a read your commentary
same lol
That’s literally my biggest fear and my husband thankfully validated and reassured me. I can’t imagine the pain and hurt you were experiencing having to live through that. That hurts my heart for you
same omg
You deserved all that
I’m a simple man. I see “Melodrama Reaction” and I click IMMEDIATELY
Melodrama is one of the best albums I’ve ever listened to cant wait for her next album😭 hopefully she releases and comes back to social media
Your display 😍
SHE DID BESTIE
@@chrisfuckingdaldas_2113 I know I’m sooo excited
@@nmueluzuado you like Solar Power
She’s such a master of writing coming of age. Pure Heroine is a perfect reflection of the angst of your mid to late teens and Melodrama is like walking into a new, experimental world of your twenties with new themes, new sounds and a labyrinth of self-exploration
I’m convinced Lorde’s spirit seeped into my body and write Liability about me because that is the most relatable song I’ve ever heard. I absolutely bawl everything time I hear it.
melodrama is on my list of albums that I could listen to at any point in my life. like I can see myself listening to that when I'm 70 or something
I turned 70 in March. I first heard Lorde on Soundcloud before "Royals." She is one of the most intriguing musical creators I have ever heard. I am one who was raised on Billie Holiday, Jimi Hendrix, and Joni Mitchell. Beyond sound, her style as a songwriter grabs my attention. Melodrama is the most relatable set of songs I've heard in quite a while.
Truth be told, if Lorde had only put out Melodrama and nothing else, her status as legend would be established. It is pretty much impossible to listen to this album without wanting to listen to it over and over again. Even if you take a long break, putting it on again reminds you that your ears and heart are in the presence of creative genius. I feel blessed every time I listen to it. The reason the Grammys didn't get it is because they didn't have time to bathe in its luxurious ambition.
This is a masterpiece in not only song writing, but production as well. This is one of my favorite albums of all time!
Melodrama is such an ICONIC album
Melodrama has a majestic aura to it. Timeless 💕✨
This album is a classic
MELODRAMA IS MY BIBLE
Preach
MELODRAMA IS THE ALBUM OF THE DECADE 🌟🌟🌟
Although I think AURORA's "Infections of A Different Kind" EP (2018) and "A Different Kind of Human" album (2019) are much better than Melodrama, we shouldn't take the credit away from Melodrama. It's such a phenomenal experience. Great story in the lyrics, and the PRODUCTION. The production on almost every track is perfect and seamlessly crafted to make this album the way it is. I love Melodrama, and it's definitely 2017 AOTY.
NFR , Magdalene, Titanic Rising, Punisher say fking hi!
NFR is, but ok
@@Harieus Nah, album of the decade is To Pimp A Butterfly. However, Melodrama, Norman Fucking Rockwell!, Lemonade, My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy, Carrie & Lowell, Blackstar, and Channel Orange are runner ups.
@@kyandelrey3704 im not a big fan of rap
In the pop music
I prefer Titanic Rising is the best
The track sequencing in this album is fucking nuts
When Lyricism and production married perfectly it created a Timeless album, its called Melodrama 💚💙
Album of the Century
The Louvre’s “broadcast the boom boom boom and make them all dance to it.” Was her heart beat thats why the bass is playing it like that why.. so genius and beautiful specially the outro, it smells like ocean for some
Reason, and it felt like the Louvre, so magical.
And Supercut outro is my favorite, it feels like a fading love, a fading magic, its depressing running those in your mind, it felt like the end of the era.
It wasn’t supposed to be a beat drop. People just expect like it’s gonna be a beat drop because of the lyric, hence they get underwhelmed
@@Dan-gi6tf because they’re living in an era of too much heavy beat drop, but Lorde’s is art. And its so beautiful
I wish there were a reaction of this album from someone who has just broke up their relationship. I know, very sadistic of me, but I do wish. such a mix of feelings and thoughts -- if you were ever there, you how it feels like.
Hard feelings ripped me apart lmaooooo pure heroine was my high school experience
Melodrama was my first 2 years of adulthood
This should've won album of the year. Period.
Melodrama is easily one of my favorite albums of all time; I'm really glad you enjoyed and got the meaning of the songs really quickly!
Also, it would be great if you do a reaction of What's your pleasure by Jessie Ware
this record will go down as one of the best albums of 21st century
You completely missed the message of the first verse of Liability. Lorde was referring to herself in the first verse. From all the pain of all the external love she experienced, she ultimately went home into the arms of the girl that she loves. She, too, admitted this girl is hard to love, a burden to carry- a liability indeed, but she never gave up on her. Because that girl was her self, and the only love she knew would always welcome her home is her self-love. Such genius songwriting!
The songs w fadeouts are mostly the ones about the relationship the album follows and to me at least represent how she can't get the idea and feelings out of her head, until liability reprise where she interrupts the fadeout abruptly to say "leave" and the song is about moving on from him so it fits. Also, the piano in greenlight and supercut are (i believe) intentionally similar bc they are both about being far enough from a relationship to forget about the bad and only seeing the good and almost wanting in again
Fun fact, Homemade Dynamite was co-written by Lorde with Tove Lo who has some great albums ^_^
drop the skincare routine pls
That’s great insight, taking time to process the song before the next.
lorde has chromesthesia or sound-to-color synesthesia where she sees colors in music. every song represents a particular color in the album cover - blue, orange, yellow, violet, red.
it’s also interesting to find out that the colors in the album cover are those that you see on a brain scan of a depressed patient. and the main themes of this album are sadness and heartbreak.
holy shit
Thats so interesting
I’ve been waiting for this video for way too long!!!!!!
I'm so glad you finally got to listen to one of the best albums of the entire decade. I'm glad you enjoyed the album as all of us did, and this album really has phenomenal productions that are absolutely out of this world, and is such a beautiful representation of emotions (reminds me of Bjork's "Vulnicura" album).
Anyway, I'd very much appreciate it if you react to the Albums of The Century:
1. Bjork: Homogenic and Vespertine
2. AURORA: Infections of a Different Kind EP and A Different Kind of Human album
3. Kate Bush: Hounds Of Love
DEFINITELY Hounds of Love!!!!!!
YESS BJÖRK
We have jack antonoff to thank for the amazing production of this album along with Norman fcking Rockwell
And lorde herself. She co produced every song on her album
@@sierrastar5155 exactly!!!
And folklore
I think the fade outs are helpful because the song has such heavy mood swings that it smooths the space between the highs and lows.
I just realized how much this album is inspired from fiona apple's the idler wheel... lyrically
Liability is inspired from largo, homemade dynamite sounds inspired from anything we want and the music video for perfect places is alike to every single night from fiona's album
Would love a reaction to that too
Woooow. The ending with the fade out and repetition of the song's message was a great analogy! I have listened to the whole album a thousand of times already! However I only picked up on that once you pointed it out! And it totally makes sense! I'm sure it was deliberate. Wow just wow
Good to see Melodrama is ageing well, great vid
The way I missed Green Light and Sober 😩✋
ruclips.net/video/Ziz-JKASEn4/видео.html
The bg in supercut really does sound like the piano in green light!
And very intentional choice I think since in Green Light she says that she can't let those memories with her ex go. In Supercut, she's reminiscing those for the last time.
him:
"The other woman's name was 'Mel'. I don't know where I cam up with that name"z
me:
* looks at album title *
I love your reaction 😄 Melodrama is such a masterpiece album! One of a kind❤️ can't wait for her L3 sm❤️
Lorde is another level
the songs always hits different when you react to
Yeah the drop on The Louvre was interesting. Streets saying though that the beat was incorporating a heartbeat..”Megahpoooone to my chest broadcast the boom boom boom and let them all dance to it” then it goes into a heartbeat because she said “megaphone to my chest”
The Louvre's outro is just amazing.
Yessss, I always feel like it would fit so well in an 80s movie
I watch these reactions whenever I feel like appreciating the art that is melodrama.
writer in the dark will always be my favorite
Can you react to Florence+TheMachine discography please? ❤️👻
YES YES YES
I’ve been waiting this reaction for so long
I would heart all 11 songs. I listen to this entire album just like with NFR
This is the legitimate album of the year. And the best song on the album is homemade dynamite
sober 2 for me. Its fucking dope
If I'm not mistaken, the metal sounds in Hard Feelings is supposed to give "empty swings in a windy empty park swinging" vibes
This album it’s literally the album of the century
i just thought of this - green light is the true outro of the album and sober was the beginning. perfect places ending on a piano can lead to green light's intro piano, plus in green light she tries to move on. putting green light as the intro might question the listener "what happened, why are you waiting for the green light / what are you letting go of?" which she then proceeds with sober as either a flashback or the "here's why." but i understood green light being the intro for it sounds like one.
I’ve waited SO long for this 🤩🤩🤩 this is amazing
I actually had a theory that “the louvre” was maybe somehow inspired by the movies Bande à part and the newer Goddard-inspired Bertolucci’s The Dreamers... please tell me I’m not the only one 🥺
Friend I wish I were as intelligent as you and knew what you were talking about hahaha
@@stephengeorge438 please don't say that, I'm more than sure you're a very smart and intelligent person in certain domains! but I'd really recommend you watch the movies, they're legendary :) have a great day 🙏🏻
god I wish I could listen to this album for the first time again
Guy!! I didn't know u listen to the Beatles!!! I'm also that kinda person, who loves pop-now-divas but also have heard Sgt. Peppers and revolver lot of times!!!!!! Also... Melodrama is a F****** masterpiece!!
This is pure art! We need Lorde again
IM SO EXCITED ONE OF MY FAVORITE ALBUMS
Yes - this is a masterpiece.
it’s not really a break up album, but more about being alone
This album is a masterpiece. sound lyrics It's pure heroine.
hard feelings is my all time fav song and i’m listening to it for years
so good to see everytime new people discover Melodrama :')
I adore this album. But focusing on it wit u like this... especially the lyrics... it made me cry so hard.
The fadeout in supercut i think is for us to picture our own supercut in our head to that music.
the beginning of the album starts with “i do my makeup in somebody else’s cars” and ends with “wtf are perfect places anyway”
and?
@@dylvoid2747 the last line directly correlates to the first, kind of like a full circle moment, or like the end of a story almost
@@taurus8937 awe oki thanks
It happens the same with pure heroine ❤️
@@taurus8937 but what is the correlation tho
This is my 4th Melodrama Album reaction 😂
react to Hayley Williams - Petals for Armor album PLSSS
Such a beautiful album! ❤
one of my favorites albums of 2020 💯👌🏼
Yaaaaaas
FINALMENTE!!!!!! I was looking forward to it
I literally listen to this album at least once a day lol 😂
You’re very first hand gestures! Hahahah. Lorde’s vibe does that to you
One really really good body of work
love this reaction!!
I don't know if you have heard about iamamiwhoami/ionnalee, a swedish independent audiovisual project. All the songs and videos are connected, they made +50 clips and got a lot of attention the last decade. I hope you can check their project. My favorite audiovisual album from them is Kin, from 2012.
React to 5 in the morning - Charli xcx
To her whole discography***
@@carlyslayjepsen yes just react to charli xcx in general lol
17:14
When lorde say the part "oh-oh" and the instrumentals coming in, Oh God that was satisfying
Precisamos da Lorde Rainha este ano! Só vem 👑
This is the generation album
Pure heroine was minimalist on purpose. Lorde decided to change it and be maximalist, hence all the production
I can't believe that I finished this Pure Heroine & Melodrama reaction for more than an hour. 😉
Jack Antonoff produced this album and will be producing her next one, he also produced both lana del rey’s Norman fucking Rockwell! And Chemtrails over the country club.
A modern masterpiece
Wow it's great that you like it. When you relisten you will catch other stuff and it just keeps getting prettier and prettier.
imagine experience melodrama for the first time 🤩
Guys, why Lorde made only two music videos of Melodrama? This album is so good.
Ive been waiting for this one...
WHY DID HE DIDNT HEARTED THE LOUVRE AND SOBER????? they are my faves along hf/l, and sober 2
Fuckin miss you Lorde
"WHAT IS THAT A DOLPHIN IN THE BACKGROUND?"
I LOST IT 😂😂😂
