Captioning two Instagram photos: “Listening to myself,”on Sunday (12.17,) Lorde took to social media sharing excitement about her forthcoming full length.
Stating that the album isn’t near completion, Lorde responded to an eager fan with “We’re not CLOSE close you guys… i’m just getting so hype n needed to let u know,” “Start ur excitement on a low flame and bring it up to a gentle simmer .. we building stamina for this chapter.”
Celebrating the tenth anniversary of her debut LP, Pure Heroine Lorde’s most recent check-in stated “You may (like me most of the time) hold the opinion that this album has been MYTHOLOGISED QUITE ENOUGH, but a milestone is a milestone.” “I think a part of me knew that I had hit a wall, and that I needed to invite in the compassion and understand I’d been struggling to generate on my own, and then I’d have something to draw from and mirror.” “It feels like it’s working. I feel incredibly grateful that we have this relationship, that we can each give when the other needs it.”
In the prior newsletter, the New Zealand-born superstar singer/songwriter revealed that she was “living with heartbreak again” and detailed recent bouts of illness and intense sadness. “Don’t worry about me, I still laugh every day, it’s all moving, even when it goes slow,” Lorde assured her readers. “I’ve accepted the mission — I have a self to recover.”
Born Ella Marija Lani Yelich-O’Connor, Lorde’s most recent album, Solar Power, arrived in 2021, four years after her acclaimed sophomore release, Melodrama.
