Lorde performing "The Love Club" Live on KCRW

Lorde is a sensation in her native New Zealand and the 16-year-old singer is making quite a splash on our coast as well. Her vocal and lyrical prowess at such a young age is impressive, as she gives us snapshots of her teenage life. We're excited for her Morning Becomes Eclectic.

No his nephew😂

[@ricochetsixtyten]

This live version is focking raaaw.

[@TastyPlainPizza]

I love her entire look. I love her hair, her minimal makeup, her voice, her clothes, her message. It's almost surprising someone like her is so popular.

[@imgone8633]

@@lilyannakin she was a mystery...that was the point. no photos of her were available to the public. not tiill the pure heroine era

[@itslochlan]

Lily when she was signed her label wanted her to release covers and go the usual teen pop star route. she didn’t want that and wanted wrote her own songs, so she did. the label didn’t didn’t think it was marketable so she released it for free on soundcloud. royals took off, got downloaded around 60k times FOR FREE, the label realized they screwed up, took it down, it went on sale and the rest is history.

[@mymae_]

ikr

[@ricochetsixtyten]

She is popular because most people are like her, just normal people, but beautiful eitherway.

[@BodhisattvaBabe]

❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥

[@phabelgreene7875]

The way she moves when she sings reminded me of just some teenage girl dancing to her favorite song, not caring if anyone sees her and thinks she looks stupid. Then I remembered that that's basically what she IS and it made me smile.

[@wtollick0953]

a kid yes. an artist your kids will teach you she has a ton to give us. i am truly sorry for your breathing Phabel Greene. you have it wrong. i hope you find your reason for existance.

[@wtollick0953]

you realize she is 16?

[@kendahl14]

Walter Tollick theres always one person who says "you know shes sixteen?" ...yes everyone fucking knows

[@phabelgreene7875]

Walter Tollick You're sorry for my breathing...?
All I was trying to say was that she looked like she was having fun doing what she loved. At what point, exactly, did I insult her talent? At what point did I defame her in any way? In fact, by assuming that I was being condescending is an insult to teenagers, being that the only thing I said that could be seen as insulting to her in any way was me calling her a teenager.
Clearly you're a moron who needs to learn how to read an entire post before he comments on it and attempts to insult the poster.

[@rejeannecaron8173]

Phabel Greene hppppypphpphhhphohp

[@agapedinyogachannel8164]

I love her facial expression when she sang ''what about the kid''' :D

[@bonniebella5905]

this is actually my favourite song from lorde so far, she is a poet.

[@kayyak7257]

YES! mine too.

[@clevelandgoolsby1409]

cool

[@TheGomezSociety]

I agree with you ma friend!

[@hunterxbox11]

i agree shes fantastic at writing

[@rarethen9]

why did she stop playing this live? this is so good

[@loveuabundle]

cos she thinks it's immature now that she is 17 and a half lol

[@rarethen9]

bullshit

[@loveuabundle]

not bullshit I read it somewhere

[@rarethen9]

loveuabundle i meant that what she said is bullshit, not what you said

[@ZoeAlexa11]

Hah it is bullshit. She wouldn't say something like that.

[@fellipetdb]

It blows my mind that Lorde is my age and she's already making great music and playing around the world

[@marleynaguna1814]

she has such good lyrics

[@vesper180]

Holy Crap she is talented

[@harobmx123]

such a weirdo, i love it

[@erasure43]

She is young and talented, can we not just accept that? cut the crap. This is brilliant x

[@williamrwilliams8098]

I agree but most are basing their opinions on looks and not musical integrity, on another thread "She is making zombie movements with her arms,,,I hate that" and here you have, her voice is amazing but I hate her boots.

[@erasure43]

Haha, her boots have integrity!

[@assymacgee3306]

I actually like the fact that she was awkward here. She has passion, lol. It's more interesting to watch then some boring over choreographed dance routine. And at least she's keeping her tongue in her mouth and not twerking on everything in sight.

[@kayyak7257]

Amen.

[@claudiafernandez7286]

"at least she's keeping her tongue in her mouth and not twerking on everything in sight." lmao bye

she isn't awkward what are you talking about

[@101dkokomaster]

the production on her songs is tighttt!! sings well too

[@baileywu9004]

I absolutely love everything about her. the faces she makes when she sings, the way she flips her hair to the other side of her face, the way she bounces while singing, her hand gestures when performing, how she doesnt wear makeup that often. Everything.

[@jmc8094]

She is such a unique young adault. I wish I had her resolve and way of thinking when I was her age. I hope she stays true to herself and her music. Not getting caught up in "celeb" stuf. No hit wonder here!

[@drishtiiiii]

AH! I love her!! Buy her album! It's DOPE.

[@BigTimeRushTheMouse]

More like Pure Herione! Haha, Get it? No? I guess I'll just stay back here, listening to my music.

[@overdrivehotel]

His voice is undeniable, I like the sound of the drums, especially the kick sounds good garage crude, mixed with synth bass sounds but the piano sounds pristine, very good

[@Dabbujr]

Listening in 2021 you're classic, legend, and a unique man .....

What an amazing artist Ella (Lorde) is. You can simply see the way her music (her creation) flow from her. People look and ask: is she stoned...is she drunk?. No, she is channeling music from her soul....if you watch...you can see it flow from her. She will be around for a very long time, it the media and haters don't destroy her. I'll be watching....I just love this girl. An amazing talent.....You go LORDE....
