Jun 18, 2017Amo a Lorde, ella es estupenda. Ella nos ha regalado dos álbumes llenos de calidad y arte, siendo la joven prodigio "el futuro de la música", dijo David Bowie.
-
Jun 18, 2017I have changed my point of view about Lorde. MELODRAMA is POWERFUL. Kind of dark and dance. It's the best album in this year. I hope it will be #1 in BB200.
-
Jun 18, 2017When the first time I have heard the entire album learned did some serious tinkering in this one the message in each songs are so deep and relate able she really outdid herself this time she proved those haters that she can write some serious songs, I love her music and I love her she's really amazing she's like Taylor 2.0
-
Jun 19, 2017This is so far away the best pop album of 2017. It makes u go anywhere you like and feels like a party of emotions that never ends. Lorde became so stronger in what she's doing, taking a great jump from debut "Pure Heroine", also evolving her style.

Jun 19, 2017I've waited a very long time for this album. Lorde delivered a piece of art that I've been listening for days straight. This is my album of the year. Thank you, Lorde.
-
Jun 19, 2017Lorde mostra que não é preciso ter um #1 na hot 100 para ter um álbum marcante como esse! Parabéns, espero que você continue com esse seu trabalho maravilhoso.
-
Jun 30, 2017best album i've heard in 2017! pure heroine was a such pretty good masterpiece and melodrama is just a bless. Thank you, Lorde! This record is very intense and real, i felt in your words your pain and it's incredible

Jun 20, 2017The best album of the year. "Perfect Places" is incredible song. I love it, so much. Let her be the same.She has got interesting and cool songs. A good work)
-
Jun 20, 2017Te identificas con cada canción, logra llevarte por un viaje triste, emotivo, alegre y al final te descubres a ti mismo con Melodrama. Una obra de arte realizada por alguien de apenas 20 años. VIVA LORDE!
-
Jun 20, 2017A journey. A life-changing experience. A concept album full of emotions coming from the genius mind of a 20 year old girl. A relationship of 3 years sung as a one-night house party. The forward thinking production and lyrics will give you that rare "I've never heard anything like this before" feeling, Truly magical and hopefully a mark not only on Ella's career but on the music scene.
-
Jun 20, 2017Lorde is the best alternative artist in the world, I'll see her with all the Grammys in the next feb.
This masterpiece has something that others albums not, it's called ART. -
Jun 20, 2017it took four years to make this album, and the four year wait is well worth it. the album has a central theme, has a story for all songs, and sounds great.
-
Jun 20, 2017very well-written and well-produced album... deserves the album of the year
best songs from the album are hard feelings/loveless, supercut, sober, green light, and writer in the dark -
Jun 20, 2017Um dos melhores matérias lançados esse ano! Um trabalho intimo. Profundo. Impecável. Que faz o ouvinte sentir das mais variadas sensações. Amém, Lorde!
-
Jun 21, 2017Lorde truly delivered one of—if not the best—albums of 2017. The album was a phenomenal body of work with each track being indulgent. The album reels you more and more as you listen. The retro-sounding production contributes to the album's excellence as well. The album overall is unique and brilliant. Lorde did THAT.
-
Jun 21, 2017Certainly the best album of the year. It was hard to wait 4 years but it was worth it. The lyrics are so deep and meaningful. Her voice is really beautiful.

Jun 23, 2017Amazing lyrics, Intellingent beats. There isn't a lot of things about this act, with only 20 years has 2 differents albums but both are incredible,, she developed and innovated with so much quality. Lorde is the best of her generation and it is the future of the music.
-
Jun 23, 2017Extreme attention to detail. Incredible complexity. Every lyric is perfect and in just the right place. Entire album is a cohesive and well thought out story. Best album of 2017.
-
Jun 23, 2017In this pop album, Lorde beautifully delivers the joy of being alone with a 11 set of songs with the concept of a single house party. With amazing and honest lyrics and tight production, Lorde crafted one of the best pop albums of the last few years.

Jul 2, 2017Anjing woy bagus banget dah nih album. The songs are very rich melodically and the instrumentals are breath-taking. Definitely what we were all waiting for in Pop Music. I love Lorde. But I consider Louvre hideous, that's why I gave a 10. But all the others are heavenly, Sober II, Sober, Homemade Dynamite, Writer in The Dark. Love them all!
-
Jul 2, 2017A perfect album, who tell us a history with awesome songs, spectacular lyrics e amazing beats. Impossible to not be in love and be involved in the songs.
-
Jul 4, 2017More intravenously emotional as Pure Heroine is. This time 70's pop rock influences mixed with contemporary-well-worked-out-pop results in a masterpiece.
-
Jul 4, 2017Melodrama is simply the best album ever made. Each lyric in every song is very deep! From Green Light to Perfect Places, every song is just perfection!
-
Jul 4, 2017Sex for your ears. The best album. Lorde has the best words, Believe me when i say say that because that i can tell you. Lorde is the greatest, they'll hang her in the louvre.
-
Jul 4, 2017Wow! This is one of the greatest albums I've heard in a while. i really liked the producing of this and all the lyrics written by lorde herself. Truly amazing!

Jul 7, 2017Depois de tanto tempo a rainha volta com um trabalho maravilhoso, os efeitos e produção estão incríveis, e o principal, as letras das musicas sempre poéticas do "jeitinho" que só a Lorde sabe escrever.
-
Jul 8, 2017This is a great album! Lorde is the best. Each song has a melody that calls you, this is without a doubt one of the best female albums released so far. It is a pleasure to hear
-
Jul 10, 2017Lorde, the greatest of greatest, still so real. I love the way this album makes me feel like I know her. And yes, from what I see a I can say she is rare, truly artistic persona, who does not want to make hits. The way she balanced pop and alternative art, that is something really unique. Thanks for that, Lorde, you make music alive.
-

Jul 12, 2017The emotions Lorde paints with her personal experiences really makes for an enthralling listening experience.Its as if she captured the emotions of a our digital generation, and compressed them into these lovely tracks on the album. Each track has its own setting for you to escape in, and relatable concepts that question the lifestyle of a generation. One of the best albums I've heard this year.
-
Aug 31, 2018um album que disperdiça todo e qualquer comentário. uma viagem magnificia ouvir essa obra prima. um dos melhores albuns já lançados na historia do pop!

Aug 13, 2017Una vez más Lorde lo supera, superó mis expectativas, Melodrama es una obra maestra. Desde la primera canción hasta la última no dejas de decir "Dios mío esto si es arte" merece el mejor de los reconocimientos.
-
Aug 8, 2018Listening to this album is an emotional rollercoaster. Even if you are not going through a heartbreak, or been harmed emotionally, this album will resonate with you and you will even wish you were broken-hearted to relate even more. Lyrics, composition, cohesiveness and composition on point.
Favorite tracks are: The Louvre, Hard Feelings, Sober and Supercut. -
Jul 23, 2017Lorde nos muestra en Melodrama su gran capacidad de crear canciones donde no solo la letra es la que da el sentido, permitiendo darle a las canciones sentidos únicos y perfectos con detalles mínimos que hacen que cada canción del álbum se llame perfección.
-
Jul 24, 2017Incredible album from start to finish. I've been loving Pure Heroine since it came out in 2013 but I actually love this album even more. Outstanding lyrics, vocals and production. I feel that just like Pure Heroine I'll be listening to this album for years to come and still enjoying it just as much.

Jul 24, 2017La transición de supercut a liability reprise es una de los momentos mas maravillosos de este album. Tiene canciones para bailar, y otras para relajarte, por lo que podes escucharlo en cualquier momento! las letras tan personales lo hacen magnifico. ninguna otra persona que no fuera ella podria cantarlo. sin duda mejoro muchisimo, y para bien!

Jul 25, 2017hard feelings es la mejor cancion sin duda! el ritmo, la letra... sublime! lo que mejoro esta mujer vocalmente y en sonido no se puede creer. Los violines y guitarras suenan hermsos, incluso con las canciones de su viejo album. Buen trabajo Lorde!
-
Jul 24, 2017Pure Heroine was a good album, with good lyrics and good production, but this, this another nivel, it's perfect, captures the esence of Lorde, brigns memories to my life.
-
Jul 24, 2017I'm lucky to be alive, Lorde went too far and i feel blessed, Green Light the first single makes you dance and all the album makes you feel alive, that is incredible.
-
Jul 24, 2017Lo que estamos seguros es que la espera de casi 4 años valió la pena, este álbum esta bien hecho, en letra, voz y producción, Lorde se ha colocado en otro nivel, una niña ñrodigio de la música, he disfrutado este álbum desde que salió.

-
Jul 24, 2017A truly masterpiece, everything on the right place and all the songs tells a story, full of deep feelings put on a way that everyone can identify themselves. Melodrama is a proof that release records every year is not necessary, the best way is take a breath and let the inspiration happen.
-

-
Jul 24, 2017Such an amazing album, really. Lorde oudid her past work in so many possible ways. Anyone hating on this new record is clearly not appreciative of creative work of art.
-
Jul 25, 2017Album of the year, Lorde DID that. This masterpiece may have you dancing or crying in your bed, and that's MELODRAMA. Every single song is perfect, every line, every broken heartstring. Production and lyrics 10/10. An album to remember
-
Jul 25, 2017I'm pretty sure this is her best work by far. That's an album that I can totally relate to. I loved it. It's pretty weird by the first time you listen to it, but if you keep going, I'm sure you'll get addicted to this album.

-
Jul 25, 2017
-
Oct 26, 2017Lorde's best album yet, in which the entire album feels like 1 song altogether, flowing seamlessly and perfectly. Also, idk why fandoms from other artists' (I'm suspecting from Lana Del Rey's), are giving this album a 0, that's unsportsmanlike.

Jan 17, 2020Just art, this is a beautiful and complete album, i love every time that i listen this
-
Jul 25, 2017Melodrama is in my opinion the best album released in 2017. Everything from the lyrical content to production is absolutely top notch. This album is one big step for Lorde and I'm glad she delivered!
-
Jul 25, 2017A very good album, Lord surprised me as much as the other critics love the new sounds, their lyrics and above all their voice that shows that it has improved a lot with the passage of the years, the wait for a new album and the Wait for this one had a great success.

Jul 25, 2017I'm obsessed with this album exactly.Everyone should listen Melodrama! Lorde is the future of music. Such an incredible work. Every title, every tune and every song is magical and too meaningful for me.
-
Jul 25, 2017I was thinking that Pure Heroine was going to be hard to beat, but Lorde proved that she is an artist from another world.
Melodrama is a masterpiece. Remember what the majestic David Bowie said: Lorde is the future of music.
That's All.
MELODRAMA FOREVER -

Jul 25, 2017At first I didn´t like Lorde, but I gave an opportunity to 'Melodrama', and boy did I take the right decision! Marvelous instrumental, beautiful voice, lyrics, concept... Is there anything this album doesn´t have?

Jul 26, 2017Best album of the year. Each song is beautiful and the vocals are amazing. No stupid fillers like certain someone's album have in abundant quantity. She is going to define the music in this gen, like she has done before.
-
Jul 26, 2017I love this album so mucccch. Absolutely brilliant and honest. Every song connects with your soul and mind. She deserves a grammy for this. Wish I had a friend like Lorde.
-
Jul 26, 2017Ella Lani Yelich O'Connor is the best musician that NZ will ever produce and we will ever again likely witness. I hope everyone realizes the brilliance of this woman rather than getting into nonsensical fandom arguments.
-
Jul 26, 2017Ella is the best singer I've heard. Absolutely the best alt artist ever. Such original work that touches the soul. Hope she goes on like this and becomes the voice of our gen.
-
Jul 26, 2017Definitely one of the greatest breakup albums. I love this. I just wish her score would go back to 9 like it was. What the hell Lana fans. Support your own heroine. Don't sabotage the work of our queen.

Awards & Rankings

Jul 10, 2017There are no gimmicks. There’s nothing screaming for acceptance. Melodrama is a raw, real album under its sparkly clean production. One written for the masses but able to resonate with each individual listener.
-
Q MagazineJul 6, 2017Lorde's biggest achievement is retaining her emotional insight into herself and her generation despite her utterly transformed life. [Aug 2017, p.100]
-
Jul 6, 2017Still only 20 years old, Lorde could have been forgiven for floundering under the weight of expectation. Instead she’s reasserted her status as today’s ultimate alt-pop artist with a record that balances the contemporary with the classic in typically immaculate style.
