my older sisters best friend, since childhood, was diagnosed with cancer in about highschool. she went through chemo therapy of course and all that went with it. she was a soccer player on the same team as my sister and they were her family. she was a legend. she beat cancer towards the end of highschool and went on to a nursing school because she wanted to help people. unfortunately, her cancer came back and she died before she got to graduate. everytime i listen to this song i start to cry because of this. i was young and barely knew anything about her, only that she and my sister were inseparable. my sister recently shaved her head in honor of her lost friend. i can’t help but think of them whenever i listen to this. it’s such a beautiful song, and truly can mean different things to different people. my sister lives on with her buzz cut for her best friend and i will stay crying to lorde songs.

"I live in a hologram with you" is like a punch to your soul. You realize all the blissful moments you've had with each other: all the late-night adventures sneaking out, kissing in someone else's bathroom, talking until the sun wakes up; are all just fleeting memories that will never be a part of reality. At the end of the day, you both come home to a house you hate and live a life you dread. It's always too good to be true.

[@failingeverything5793]

For me its the fact that me and my friends can only interact in games, I play for hours with them trying to live a life that I want. Then my friends have to leave and the "blue" in my world fades away leaving me alone with the fact that my life is a shithole. That the life I want to live with my friends will never exist, that all of the happiness I get is from a fake world, and the real world would never feel the same.

Sometimes I'm happy Lorde is underrated. Not everyone deserves this angel and her masterpiece works!

[@WinnyPLUSJack]

So when I heard this song live. it literally changed my life. Lorde is explaining being a youth in the 21st century. having to cut your hair when you grow up... because you can't get a job with long hair. getting your cut during buzz cut season. the final act of your youth. the men on the news, covering only negativity to the public, she explains how hearing that changes your world, because when you are introduced to the horriors of the real world, the world all around you begins to change. She recalls her memories with her friends where nothing is wrong but nothing is true. The truth she sees is the explosions on TV, not what she does in her holographic world of being a teenager . She realizes how small her world is, and how small her experiences are such as, freedom, friendships, youth. because She understands that living it up with her friends by the pool is a fucking joke compared to the real fear out there, whether that's being a teenager fearing the loss of youth, or a teenager in Syria fearing being shot at or bombed. She is telling us, none of us are real here.. because we distract ourselves from the terror we all experience, and cover it up with trickery. Lorde feels everything, I think we all do... we just are afraid.

[@WinnyPLUSJack]

[@DeniseSantos-qe5ee]

There is, probably not in your region

[@astoria9506]

"I remember when your head caught flame" is from when she accidentally set her friend's hair on fire in a Chemistry experiment but he laughed it off and wasn't mad. The song is about summer (which she has said), It's about the feeling of summer vacation, when you fall out of routine and have all that freedom it's like you're living in a haze, everything is good and you want to stay out all day. "And I'll never go home again." She doesn't want this peaceful time to end, but she knows that it will, she's only blocking it out of her mind. I like it because even though it's a song about summer it's not about surfing and bikinis, It's about the end of school feeling that anyone still in school understands on a deep level. Summer has a different way of life that's for sure, your life moves to a totally different beat and everything feels strange and good.

[@horsenoise28]

okay you literally calmed my nerves bc I was so depressed with the lyrics spending weeks thinking abt it, I thought it was about ppl who suffering with cancer and they have to shave their hair so Lorde wrote this song to comfort them, like it's buzzcut season anyway don't feel outcast bc u're suffering from cancer and u have to shave ur hair or something 😭😭😭😭

[@nataliatyborska3772]

Same 😍❤❤

[@baileymillis4640]

same, along with White Teeth Teens, Still Sane, and a World Alone. Pure Heroine is probably my fave album of all time.

[@orangebanana690]

same with (almost) all her songs

[@samancinnamon]

I remember lying on the sofa around 4 am and listening to this song on loop. At that time, i was very sad and scared as my father was in hospital and my mother usually stayed there. He passed away few months ago and now whenever i listen to this song, his memory flashes past me and i get tearful.

[@trashtvinternational]

+Mika Cumberbatch i guess he's not referring to the time this song first came out but actually to the song itself... This song emanates an aura of nostalgia from the very beginning, it's strange I cannot really explain it...

I first heard this song at Hollister when I was 14/15. I was waiting in line for the dressing rooms and I pressed against the wall. The music was pretty loud and I felt the bass down my back. I got chills and fell in love with this song. 7 years later and I still love it. I'll never forget that moment. Thank you for this.

[@schmlruth]

So many people I know say her music is tricky to understand, but I understand it completely. Her style is so unique, and I love that about her.

[@RishankiJ]

This is my favourite Lorde song ever. EVER.

[@sharanski]

It really amazes me how a song can make you feel so much. I don’t know why but this song makes me feel nostalgic af, it makes me want to go back to being a teenager again, when everything was easy and I had no responsibilities… I love her

something in my soul awakens at 2:00

[@chanellensengiyumva2266]

This song is very special to me, even after Melodrama its still my favorite song of her. All the emotions i felt listening to that song. I was lost, scared, and so confused at 14 -15 years old. I remember thinking i wouldn’t survive my teenage years. I attempted suicide two times and I lost contact with my childhood best friends in one year. My parents fought a lot, i didn’t talk to anyone bout my issues. Hearing this now at 21 hits different. I evolved and I opened more than i ever could. I made it.

[@louiepumpernickel]

that’s heavy stuff. i’m so proud of you for making it, it’s so hard to get through teenage years as i’m learning,, and it’s amazing hearing that it’s possible to make it out and still be a human.

[@allisondawson2141]

I've only heard a couple of Lorde's songs and I can promise that's about to change.

[@OfficialJaveable]

Buzzcut Season 400 Lux and Tennis Court are my three favorite songs of all time, in that order.

[@OfficialJaveable]

Glory & Gore being fourth, of course ;)

[@sarahgreen2079]

"And I'll never go home again" favourite part for me.

[@miajade587]

This whole album reminds me of the summer I was 12 and had the most tremendous crush on this boy a couple years older staying with us at the beach. The feeling of driving 5 hours back home and knowing I’ll never see him or get that feeling back. I’m nearly 20 now and have still not felt this. Maybe it dies as you age

[@ellehv8r]

I was 14 when I first heard Lorde. She was there during my formative years as a young adult and it was really amazing having her music by me while going through growing pains. I'm 22 now and Solar Power feels like the end of an era for me, I feel like Lorde and I are growing apart whatever the heck that means.

I have an anxiety disorder and sometimes I think life isnt real, this song makes me feel better

[@user-jk4jj4nm1q]

Hey, can you tell me what the name of the disorder is? I might have it too.

[@daniellafernando7966]

.

[@daniellafernando7966]

i have generalized anxiety disorder. im sorry to hear that you might have it, but if you think you do and this continues for 6 months or more then I suggest you go to a psychiatrist or even your family doctor (preferably a psychiatrist) and get a diagnoses and maybe medication. please dont self-diagnose though, because you could very well have something else. best of luck!!! (sorry this was so long im just concerned)bo white

[@user-jk4jj4nm1q]

Thank you! I don't know much about what anxiety must feel like, but I never have panic attacks, or breathing problems, or anything like that. I guess a certain stress is always there, never leaving, but I don't know if that's related to any disorder. The only thing that I've found really weird was this feeling that I'd get every now and then, that the world isn't real. It's not so often now, like barely ever, but it'd been happening for years, and I just didn't know what it was. And even when I searched on the internet, I only found one link, where it said that it could be a side effect of anxiety or depression, or something like that - pretty vague

[@stevenbradie-miles246]

Such a genius Lorde is! Awesome talent and many flights on Singapore Airlines from Melbourne to Sri Lanka listening to Pure Herione over and over. Now Solar Power - WOW again full of surprises

[@Nadia4Evers]

Lorde has a way of portraying youth in a no bullshit kind of way. She spills it how it is, a messy kind of time where everything feels so far away. She doesn't romanticize it, she tells it straight.

[@untitled1464]

it is past midnight april 15 2019 and i am on the verge of tears. i don’t know why. i remember replaying this song over and over in high school, I would quietly draw in my grey lit room as the rain poured outside. I was 15-16 and it just comforted me throughout the loneliness of high school. now that i’m a third finished with university, i want to cry. it’s so rare to be growing up with an artist that you know will be talked about for years to come. i guess i’m just thankful lorde is there to accompany me throughout my own life. it’s like revisiting an old friend everytime.

[@androdeiculus9712]

I hope you're doing better now!

[@gem883]

Lorde is one of the most talented artists I ever heard of. Her music is amazing. It's strange, and hard to explain what I mean but it digs under your skin, makes you think about things. She's got a gift. Her lyrics are different, it's different than any music I've ever heard. But they relate to things in some strange way that I can't explain because I never thought someone could do that with just words, just a song. All of her songs give me a weird feeling, it's not bad, but it's ...different. Her lyrics make me sad, emotional, they bring sad memories to mind, but also they can make me smile, feel amazing, and make me think of the happiest times ever. I've personally never seen another artist that does what she does with music, and there are a lot of good artists out there. But this, what she does with music, is unique and absolutely amazing. She constantly has me in awe of her talent. Definitely my favorite artist by far.

[@alannahbanana477]

When I hear this song I think about her being stuck alone in a space station alone. Looking down on the dead and abandoned earth while thinking of old memories when they where oblivious to the rest of the world and did what they wanted.
