Jun 3, 2023literal el mejor album del 2017, me encanta todo pero homemade dynamy y ambos sober me tienen mal
-
Apr 16, 2023This is her magnum opus. Hard Feelings / Loveless is enough for me to say that this album is a 10 out of 10.
-
Mar 1, 2023Perfection from start to finish. Perhaps my favourite album of all time. Every song is overwhelming, and I seem to make new discoveries upon every listen.

Feb 10, 2023Melodrama today is one of those cult albums. Along with Lana del Rey's Born to Die, Ellie Goulding's Halcyon will be part of alternative music legend albums.
-
Feb 10, 2023Não tem um defeito, todas as músicas seguem uma linha excelente e possuem letra profundas e capazes de te fazer refletir bastante sobre, destaque para todas mas perfect places segue sendo minha favorita de todas, liability me tocou de uma forma especial, Lorde conseguiu representar perfeitamente os sentimentos de um jovem e suas aflições em cada canção

Dec 28, 2022Alternative pop perfection, it production and lyrics complement each other too well

Nov 6, 2022Easily one of the best albums of the 2010s. It has been 5 years since its release and every relisten still feels fresh.
-
Oct 25, 2022A gorgeous album about growing past a breakup. Sonically beautiful, catchy and with fantastic vocals and lyrics.
While there isn't a dud on the tracklist, the highlights (for myself, at least) were Liability, Writer in the Dark and Supercut. Even my least favourite track, Green Light, carries the feeling of dancing through the pain.
This is, very nearly, the perfect pop album. -
Oct 22, 20225 years later and it has aged like fine wine. It deserved to win Album of the Year at the 2018 Grammys. Melodrama’s impact is incredible.
-
Jun 4, 2022melodrama is my favorite album. period. it has both upbeat and sad songs. it is the perfect mix for my taste in music.
-
Aug 31, 2022Perhaps the most complete pop album of its time. Well crafted songs, equally brilliant in lyricism, vocal performance, and forward-thinking production techniques, flow seamlessly from start to finish.
-
Aug 30, 2022Amazing, beats you never heard before, perfect lyrics and such a vibe. Album of the year
-
Aug 23, 2022It is strongly recommended that those who give this album a low score go to see the otology department, and I will pay for the medical expenses. Although Lorde made this album at the age of 20, its quality is very high.
-
Aug 23, 2022fter four years of waiting, Lorde has truly delivered one of the best
pop albums of 2017.
With an exquisite production, the album holds in its catalogue some unforgettable tunes, from the triumphant opener 'Green Light', to the infectious anthem 'Supercut', which highly resembles Robyn's 2010 hit song 'Dancing on My Own', to the Kate Bush-esque ballad 'Writing in the Dark', or the eerie… -
Aug 22, 2022ALBUM OF THE CENTURY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! definitely her best work to date. an inspiration for young artists of the new generation.
-

-
Aug 21, 2022Her best album, deserve album of the year at Grammys, every track is a masterpiece.
-
Aug 15, 2022La definicion de un album perfecto, bailable, triste, muy emocional, describiendo perfectamente un quiebre emocional, la vida durante la juventud y con una estetica de escena nocturna y renacimiento post quiebre increible
-
Jul 24, 2022This is my ALBUM OF THE DECADE, without even the slightest doubt. The lyrics, the melodies, the production……everything is just perfect, I mean really PERFECT. She's not Lorde with an "e", she's just lord, PERIOD!!!

May 28, 2022As much as I love this album, I cannot lie that most songs are forgettable. The more memorable tracks, liability and writer in the dark, showcase her emotions and her 'hard feelings'. Nonetheless, the album is pretty good but it has some useless tracks such as liability (reprise).
-
May 22, 2022I’ve never heard the most perfect album like this. This album’s sounds are all amazing, Lorde voice’s amazing, all lyrics amazing.

Sep 28, 2021Just amazing, that’s all.
Lorde shows us how she can be a great composer but algo had a great voice, that capability of produce great beats and melodies make Melodrama one of the best album of our time, debatable the best alternative/independent album -

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.
