“I definitely don’t think Royals is my best song. I understand why it worked and why it was kind of a hit, I can see those qualities in it, but at the same time there’s part of me that’s like…’these melodies are just not as good as something I could have written now’, or like ‘I definitely wouldn’t have written this lyric this way if I had’ve written it now.’ But I was 15 when I wrote it and I’m 17 now, so I think you grow a lot in that period. It definitely feels like a bit of a relic now.”

I agree.

It might actually be my least favorite on Pure Heroine.

Kii she knows she will never top it

Then her sophomore album will TRULY smash then. Looking forward to it.

She's right. But honey, that's the kind of crap the public likes.

Edit: I didn't mean to imply that "Royals" is crap, I mean.. idk what I mean, just not that.

Tennis Court is.

It's not. She knows tea. When you listen to tha album, i mean... Team...Glory & Gore...Buzcutt Season...Bravado...White Teeth Teens...Tennis Court...

400 ****ing Lux! I mean...it was really just tha production that made Royals really smash if you ask me

Team>>>>>>

Wait @ you forgetting Ribs

you flop bitch

She is right tho, it's like the only song on the album I don't really re listen to

I agree, it's one of my least faves on Pure Heroine

No lies spotted

Tennis Court says hi

I skip Ribs Mess

She is totally underestimating her songwriting ability. What normal 15-year-old can come up with lyrics that good? It's one of her best songs, without a doubt. That song is genius. I can't believe someone so young wrote something more brilliant than most of today's pop stars. Lorde is truly an artist to be treasured. She's an amazing vocalist and an intriguing songwriter. She's incredibly talented and she brings something new and fresh to the table that I really like. I think she's really unique as an artist and a writer and she's real, unlike some of today's pop artists, and that's something she should really be proud of. She's great.

She's growing. She knows she's capable of way more than she was 2 years ago. Her 2nd album is going to be ridiculous. I think it might make me stan. QUEEN.

I don't like Royals, she has better songs on the album, like Ribs and 400 Lux

I read no lies.

Well said.
