Recently, new Zealand female singer Lorde officially returned after four years, which was warmly welcomed by the Internet, and the news of her return exploded on social media, and the fan media cheered!
August 20 is the day the new album "Solar Power" was released, and many regions around the world have been officially released online.
Lorde's album has been sharpened for four years, four years apart from the previous game, and has also made fans look forward to it, and the first wave of the previously released title song "Solar Power", which is based on a lively and brisk melody, was released in early summer, which is refreshing.
Yesterday, a new song "mood ring" was released to convey love and hope, and Lorde also challenged the blonde style in the MV and challenged a different style.
However, compared with the unanimous praise of Chinese music critics and bloggers, this album overseas can be described as mixed, and many media have given failing scores, resulting in a comprehensive average score of only 65 points for the current album.
Lorde has always been the queen of music criticism, and her debut album "Pure Heroine" won the Grammy Song of the Year with "Royals", with a combined rating of 77 points.
The overall score of the 2017 album "Melodrama" was as high as 91 points, and it received a praise of 8.8 points from Pitchfork, ranking at the top of the year.
However, in "Solar Power", many media have given more conservative ratings.
Currently, the two-hundred-year-old website "The Guardian" gives the album a maximum score of 80 points, or four stars.
The two major high-cold media "INDEPENDENT" and "The Telegraph" gave two stars and three stars respectively, that is, the bad and medium ratings of 40 points and 60 points on the 100-point system.
Although there are still fewer big media agencies that rate albums, the scores still have a turnaround and have not yet been fixed, but it is also a situation with an unfavorable start.
It is pointed out that because Lord advocates environmental protection and does not want the new album "Solar Power" to launch a large number of traditional plastic box records that harm the environment, she is a person who pays great attention to social ecology, so this new album only releases environmental protection records, and such records will not be regarded as traditional records, so they are not counted in sales.
So the album may not end up looking very good in sales figures.
In fact, a lot of the content in Lorde's new album is very personal, there are many ideas about her world, for environmental protection and lifestyle ideas, for those who like Lorde is indeed a spiritual communication with idols.
All in all, Lorde is indeed a very considerate, very talented and very friendly person, she herself does not care how many albums she has sold and how many media praises she has received, and people who really like her music do not care how many points the music reviews have.
Lorde's album has not been used to tear fans apart and despise newcomers, to suppress new singers, and her talent and talent are not used to discriminate and attack, and look down on other people's capital.
On the contrary, her music is actually a call for peace, calling for leniency in dealing with mistakes, for calculations to be replaced by generosity, for pure goodness to be seen by the world, for suffering to be forgiven, for monopolies to be replaced by sharing, for mean people to appreciate, and for the atmosphere of the air and the Internet to be more harmonious and fragrant.
