I have to agree with you for the most part about this album. Melodrama is like Lorde as Lorde all over again, meaning the album is repetitive, most of the songs sound alike to me. I'll love you till you call the cops on me". It really isn't a bad line in my little opinion.
I am my mother's child, I'll love you 'til my breathing stops I'll love you 'til you call the cops on me But in our darkest hours, I stumbled on a secret power I'll find a way to be without you, babe. I still feel you, now and then Slow like pseudo-ephedrine When you see me, will you say I've changed? I ride the subway, read the signs I let the seasons change my mind I love it here since I've stopped needing you. That all sounds like she is trying to be as honest as possible the people and that is truly how she was feeling. Everyone know someone who is with the wrong guy or girl and it's all good until you have to involve law enforcement. In theory, anyway.
You put my thoughts into words better than I ever could. Other reviewers gave this album such good reviews, and I almost felt a little bit… guilty? for not loving it, not even really liking it. The only songs on here that I love are Liability and Homemade Dynamite. Hard Feelings/Loveless is growing on me though. Oh well, I will always remember Pure Heroine incredibly fondly, and I do love most of the lyrics on Melodrama (Still not as much as PH, but I have never been through a break up so it's more that I just don't relate as much, I guess)
I'm so glad I watched this because I thought I was the only one that felt this way. It's been getting so many great reviews and I was thinking, 'should I like this?' I don't think it's as much as of dissappointment as you do, I really do wish she didn't sound so generic all of a sudden. You nailed all my thoughts on every track. I guess it wasn't as much of a dissappointment for me because I was already expecting the worst after hearing 'Green Light'. It's a good song but I knew she was going in a different direction to Pure Heroine.
I actually disagree I thought this is more of an 8.5 for me writer in the dark is a beautiful song and when she reches into her upper register it sounds like Kate bush and pure melonchaly. Perfect places was the best song on the record with aHuge chorus that sounds like euphoria and melonchaly all at once with lyrics of trying to escape your young adult sorrows through partying. I do however agree with you on how disappointing the chorus to the louvre is its the song that expect to have a soreing chorus because it's the happiest song lyrically but instead you get all the momentum cut out and lorde delivering a sub par line Still a well done review though
