The music on Lorde's 'Melodrama' reflects the wealth of emotions the New Zealand native has experienced of late, and they’re rendered with the kind of poise we’ve come to expect from the pop superstar. Her voice, the melodies, the arrangements she’s chosen to help landscape her feelings - this critically-acclaimed second album is particularly fetching because the 20-year-old singer trusts her idiosyncrasies to fuel her eloquence. “Let’s let things come out of the woodwork,” she coos on “Homemade Dynamite.” That’s what makes the six performances of ‘VEVO X Lorde’ so powerful as well. All her best ideas naturally seep to the surface. Filmed at Electric Lady Sound Studios in New York’s West Village, the mid-August session found Lorde moving through key songs from ‘Melodrama,’ providing each with the proper temperament for the occasion. The set list features “The Louvre,” “Sober,” “Writer In The Dark,” “Supercut,” “Homemade Dynamite,” and “Hard Feelings”/ “Loveless” – she chose to spotlight some of the album’s most vivid moments. Whether backed by a small ensemble, playing the piano alone, or singing a cappella with a squad of vocalists and a beatbox, she brings invention and intensity to the performances. The soft addition of strings and brass adds to the show’s intimacy, and the drama that she’s built a rep on is central to every moment. Jack Antonoff of Bleachers, who produced and co-wrote parts of ‘Melodrama,’ arrives on “Writer In The Dark” to support his pal as well.

Lyrics:

Please could you be tender

And I will sit close to you

Let’s give it a minute before we admit that we’re through

Guess this is the winter

Our bodies are young and blue

I’m at Jungle City, it’s late and this song is for you

Cause I remember the rush, when forever was us

Before all of the winds of regret and mistrust

Now we sit in your car and our love is a ghost

Well I guess I should go

Yeah I guess I should go

Hard feelings—

These are what they call hard feelings of love

When the sweet words and fevers all leave us right here in the cold

Alone with the hard feelings of love

God I wish I believed ya when you told me this was my home

I light all the candles

Cut flowers for all my rooms

I care for myself the way I used to care about you

These days, we kiss and we keep busy

The waves come after midnight

I call from underwater

Why even try to get right?

When you’ve outgrown a lover

The whole world knows but you

It’s time to let go of this endless summer afternoon

Hard feelings—

These are what they call hard feelings of love

When the sweet words and fevers all leave us right here in the cold

Alone with the hard feelings of love

God I wish I believed ya when you told me this was my home

Three years, loved you every single day, made me weak, it was real for me, yup, real for me

Now I'll fake it every single day 'til I don’t need fantasy, 'til I feel you leave

But I still remember everything, how we’d drift buying groceries, how you’d dance for me

I’ll start letting go of little things 'til I’m so far away from you, far away from you, yeah

Loveless

“What is this tape?”

“This is my favorite tape”

Bet you wanna rip my heart out

Bet you wanna skip my calls now

Well guess what? I like that

Gonna wanna tape my mouth shut

Look out, lovers
