Listening through Lorde's album for- I think- only the second time. I've obviously heard "Royals" and "Team" hundreds of times (and love the latter)...but it seems all this girl has going for her is melody. Her novelty of being young and having fairly minimalist-style music has worn off at this point I think.
The only times this album is entertaining me is when she hits a particularly catchy melody in a song. Oh well. It's good enough pop.
