Lorde - Solo (Frank Ocean Cover) (Melodrama World Tour, Vancouver)

[@laurensunshine74]

Her version and Frank's versions are so different in the most beautiful way ever. Different vibes for different moments.

[@DieHard0]

That's the way I view it! You don't have to love one and hate the other and you don't even have to pick a 'favorite'. They can both exist and love each for what they are and possibly bring out different emotions in you.

[@childofmine8086]

I love how she captures the emotion of the original song, but presented it with her character and makes it completely authentic

[@jacksoninc.4062]

@@DieHard0 WHAT? PEOPLE HATE ON THIS COVER?? HOW???

[@DieHard0]

@@jacksoninc.4062 Different people have different tastes. I don't think there is anything wrong with people disliking a cover, just like there is nothing wrong with disliking a movie or a painting. Some people have a hard time seeing past the original material, just like others have artists they love so much that they may dislike the original just because it was by someone else. Personally, I always try to treat everything on its own merit, without judging it against anything else, although even I'm not perfect, (especially when it comes to remakes of classic movies.) The nice thing is that people have a choice of what to listen to, so if they prefer one over the other, they can easily simply listen to one version and ignore the other. I wish people didn't have to bash on other artists for simply trying to entertain, show their appreciation for another artist, or do what they love, but people have the right to voice their opinions and unfortunately, some people purposefully abuse that privilege to get reactions out of people.

[@joshuaacosta5671]

A modern legend singing a song by a modern legend. Ok, you didn’t have to be THAT iconic.

[@JinalAminJinalAmin]

i'd hit the like but it's at 420 already

[@kamilcichanowski1954]

She is just ICONIC.

[@aidenacts1523]

no

[@mollie4960]

Aiden Acts Yes.

[@kudos7777]

Only difference is you will never see frank doing a lorde cover, she's a one hit wonder as far as I'm concerned.

[@olivia7481]

I love that the fans knew the words (:

[@annabelleb3510]

yoongi’s teeth I feel like everyone knows the words it such an incredible song, a modern classic

[@xcx000]

I love how calm the crowd is. Not screaming at the top of their lungs while Lorde sings

[@DieHard0]

It was up and down, but luckily when she did the emotional stuff people were more reserved, witnessing the power and beauty of her voice. I don't know what it was like back in the crowd however because I was so close to her that the majority of the audio I was able to capture was more pure and clean.

[@rubenruiz5809]

Because they don’t know the song

[@ToniKensa]

The way she sings Solo makes it sound like so alone... wow...

[@williamimoukhuede4169]

Toni Kensa makes it sound like she’s solo

[@pascalhmann]

I don't care who 'did it better'. I don't know Lorde's music. I just think it's beautiful how you can see her passion with which she sings this incredible song. I will love and adore any human being who appreciates Frank's music as much as I do.

[@jasonvelez-pico6254]

pascalhmann facts I love frank ocean and any other artist who appreciates his music.

[@joeguy1092]

Shut up

[@franciscomoreno1331]

Omg true

[@pastelpepe]

joeguy1092 why?

[@amscr6009]

i agree, but u definitely should listen to lorde’s music, i promise u’ll like it

[@terranbrice1764]

A Lorde and Frank Ocean collab would end me! This was such a chilled rendition. LOVE IT!

[@carmenflores1942]

I’m glad this isn’t trying to imitate franks style because I don’t think anyone can do that besides frank himself. But it’s nice to see Lorde take this song and make it her own with her style

[@michalkatec.6841]

The lyrics sound like something Lorde would’ve sung, and I love that she sang it.

[@sarj2019]

I love frank ocean so much. And I love lorde!! She did a great job

[@DieHard0]

I know I enjoyed it and liked her take on it. It was also nice to see her enjoying singing it.

[@lorenmichelle]

did anyone else get chills listening to her?

[@audryazahra5116]

she's painfully underated

[@denial1714]

She not underated she just went awol 2 years ago n still not surface

[@eyeorigins77]

I think she got a perfect exposure you know, not to mainstream and not too underrated as well

[@theresat1776]

eye origins You know I agree honestly, same kinda goes for Frank.

[@gavinwarner3480]

She’s one of the most famous singers on earth she’s perfectly rated

[@itswillqa9797]

this girl really feels what she sing.

[@sangpilkim6667]

omg.. the voice is so unique

[@roctravers]

Hand me a towel I'm dirty dancing by myself Gone off tabs of that acid Form me a circle, watch my jagger Might lose my jacket and hit a solo One time We too loud in public then police turned down the function Now we outside and the timing's perfect Forgot to tell you, gotta tell you how much I vibe with you And we don't gotta be solo Now stay away from highways My eyes like them red lights Right now I prefer yellow Red-bone, so mellow Fuck 'round, be cutting you Think we were better off solo I got that act right in the Windy city that night No trees to blow through But blow me and I owe you Two grams when the sunrise Smoking good, rolling solo Solo, solo Solo, solo S-solo, solo S-solo, solo It's hell on Earth and the city's on fire Inhale, in hell there's heaven There's a bull and a matador dueling in the sky Inhale, in hell there's heaven Oh, oh, oh, oh Oh, oh, oh, oh Solo, solo Solo, solo

[@braydenkeynes6951]

This seems to be one of those things you either love or hate and I loved it.

[@hegidund]

I wish frank him self watch this and make collab with her... she did this song so beautifully~

[@ellaocean]

A little bird said they they did...

[@noahztv1]

Perfection. I like how fans of the original are mad because she didn’t do good enough for them, you do realize that she’s spreading the artists work. I discovered him through this

[@DieHard0]

Yep. She said he inspired her while writing this album, and so she wanted to do something to show her support for him. In my eyes it is a win-win, and I'm grateful she sang it because I thought she did a great job. For (what I would consider a large artist) like Lorde to cover someone else's track should be looked at a blessing, because she is promoting that other artist's work and helping them get more recognition.

[@prosimaSims]

Franks bigger than lords 😬😂 the numbers show and you discovered frank ocean when he came out with Novacaine thinking about you or when he shut the internet down with blonde 🙂

[@daffyweirdlaughy2221]
