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:

[Verse 1]

In my head, I play a supercut of us

All the magic we gave off

All the love we had and lost

And in my head

The visions never stop

These ribbons wrap me up

But when I reach for you

There's just a supercut

[Pre-Chorus]

In your car, the radio up

In your car, the radio up

We keep trying to talk about us

I'm someone you maybe might love

I’ll be your quiet afternoon crush

Be your violent overnight rush

Make you crazy over my touch

[Chorus]

But it's just a supercut of us

Supercut of us

Oh it's just a supercut of us

Supercut of us

[Verse 2]

So I fall

Into continents and cars

All the stages and the stars

I turn all of it

To just a supercut

[Refrain]

'Cause in my head (in my head, I do everything right)

When you call (when you call, I'll forgive and not fight)

Because ours are the moments I play in the dark

We were wild and fluorescent, come home to my heart, uh

[Pre-Chorus]

In your car, the radio up

In your car, the radio up

We keep trying to talk about us

Slow motion, I'm watching our love

I’ll be your quiet afternoon crush

Be your violent overnight rush

Make you crazy over my touch

[Chorus]

But it's just a supercut of us

Supercut of us

Oh it's just a supercut of us

Supercut of us

But it's just a supercut of us

Supercut of us

Oh it's just a supercut of us

Supercut of us

[Refrain]

In my head, I do everything right

When you call, I'll forgive and not fight

Are the moments I play in the dark

And fluorescent, come home to my heart, uh

'Cause in my head (in my head, I do everything right)

When you call (when you call, I'll forgive and not fight)

Because ours are the moments I play in the dark

We were wild and fluorescent, come home to my heart, uh

'Cause in my head (in my head, I do everything right)

When you call (when you call, I'll forgive and not fight)

Because ours are the moments I play in the dark

We were wild and fluorescent, come home to my heart, uh

In my head, I do everything right

In my head, I do everything right
