Jun 17, 2017Lorde delivers an impeccable sophomore-album that is as textually clever as it is emotional. With producers Jack Antonoff and Joel Little she has created a modern and futuristic pop-album that is going to be played for years to come.
-
Jun 17, 2017To be honest I didn't like tha album at all, quite overrated, didn't feel anything at all, but as always stuff like that will win several Grammy's because critics like it
-
Jun 17, 2017Lorde amadurece e nos traz um trabalho incrivel. Melodrama fala sobre os temas mais maduros, ela deixa de lado seu lado adolecente e traz seu lado adulto nesse novo album. Com batidas maravilhosas e vocais que te deixam em extase, melodrama chegou ,junto com alguns albuns, para salvar a musica de 2017 do pop generico.
-
Jun 17, 2017She is a real goddess. She is the best in pop industry. 'Melodrama' is the best pop album of 21st century. I'm so proud of her. The album was well worth the wait.
-
Jun 17, 2017Melodrama es la prueba definitiva de cómo el pop evoluciona gracias a artistas como Lorde, que tiene una visión de la música propia de nuevas generaciones y que con poco equipo se puede llegar a hacer una gran álbum.
-
Jun 16, 2017Unapologetically pop. Unapologetically Lorde. A marvel of cohesive storytelling, unique and nuanced lyrics, and slick producing. This is what the pop music of our time will be remembered as.
-
Jun 16, 2017
-
Jun 16, 2017An atmosphere of Kate Bush and Bjork but without losing the essence, now mature of the Lord. I hope Melodrama is the big winner of the night at the Grammy's 2018.
-
Jun 16, 2017talented, brilliant, incredible, amazing, show stopping, spectacular, never the same, totally unique, completely not ever been done before, unafraid to reference or not reference, put it in a blender, **** on it, vomit on it, eat it, give birth to it... this album is all those things. But actuality it's a **** good album.

Jun 16, 2017With Melodrama Lorde show us that she can be a great and quality star of music being just a "teenager", and made a great álbum and probably the best of the year!
-
Jun 16, 2017você quer grammy, katy? então toma. Eu te falei que isso era melodrama. A CUCA É RESISTÊNCIAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
-
Jun 16, 2017Melodrama is an outstanding album filled with both upbeat songs and emotional ballads, each song carefully worded and original. Lorde's voice is so unique and lyrically this album is perfect.
-
Jun 16, 2017Lord, this is a masterpiece, every song is filled with meaning and emotion, she managed to convey this through music, the album surpassed so many expectations. In my opinion this is a unique album in which you can feel so many emotions and moods that you can dance and sink. All that she creates is something special and unique art. Thank you, Ella.
Went to nirvana -
Jun 16, 2017Não esperava menos do álbum novo da Lorde, com influencias claras de David Bowie e Björk, não esperava menos de um álbum totalmente autoral. sonoramente ele e uma celebração do sentimento melodramático, com ligações claras de uma musica para outra, muito feliz de ouvi essa obra de Arte, espero muito da Haim também.

Jun 16, 2017In this new album proved that with few doses of melancholy and some mix of dance pop with piano and voice you can make a great album. The new songs bring a girl more honest and vulnerable than the hard girl from pure heroine.
-
Jun 16, 2017ALBUM OF THE YEAR. It's perfect, her voice, her lyrics, the rhythms, Homemade Dynamite needs video. And my favorite song was The Louvre. All the album it's perfect
-
Jun 16, 2017The album is so overrated. But I can still see the album winning several Grammys in the next year's Academy Awards - the judges just love these types of music.
-
Jun 16, 2017Pode entrar Album Of The Year, Lorde mostrando que toda a espera valeu a pena com um álbum coeso e sem fillers. Destaque pra Sober, Homemade Dynamite, Liability e Perfect Places.
-
Jun 16, 2017The best pop album of the year so far. The lyricism, the production, the melodies, the MUSIC. This is what pop music has been missing this year and Lorde comes back to give the children this amazing meal. Amazing.
-
Jun 16, 2017
-
Jun 16, 2017Lordeee, obrigado por salvar o POP!!! Vem AOTY, vem GRAMMYS!!!
Não importa o que os haters falam, o que vemos aqui é mais um trabalho maravilhoso de uma excelente artista. Se o David Bowie disse que ela é o futuro da música, quem somos nós para discordar. Aqui está a prova de que ele estava certo, sinto apenas por ele não estar vivo para ouvir isso. -
Jun 16, 2017Realmente muito bom, porém inferior ao Pure Heroine. Além disso, contém algumas contradições ao seu último álbum. Ademais a Lorde não deixa de ser uma grande artista.
-
Jun 16, 2017
-
Jun 16, 2017Lorde comes back from the sidelines of the pop scene with Melodrama, an amazing album about coming to age. A step-up from her previous album with mainstream pop, along with the emotional pop that gives you the feels as well.
-
Jun 16, 2017The best album of 2017. Lorde did an incredible job and deserve major props for this amazing work! This album gave me so many different feelings and sensations. It was an emotional roller-coaster!
-
Jun 16, 2017Um dos melhores álbuns desse ano, com toda certeza. Veio para concretizar o que Bowie já havia dito. Um trabalho limpo, com faixas sólidas e com um ótimo fechamento. A espera de quatro anos valeu à pena, Lorde veio, literalmente, acabar com nossas vidas.
-
Jun 16, 2017One of the best albums of the year. Always so original and unique you have made a great change throughout your career and MELODRAMA is clear example. Much Success
-
Jun 16, 2017Espero sinceramente mais. O álbum é bom com algumas trilhas super, mas no saldo final não deixa esse gosto de querer ouvir novamente, novamente, novamente ...
-
Jun 16, 2017Album do ano felizmente, quem discordar é fã da Lana que quer tentar boicotar o hinário, parem de dar notas vermelhas, e se continuarem o album do ano ainda sim não se abalará.
-
Jun 16, 2017Melodrama es realmente un álbum asombroso. Esta vez vemos una Lorde amando y comprometiendo su ritmo a nuevos rumbos, cada canción es un acierto, sin rellenos ni huecos, por mucho el mejor álbum del 2017 hasta ahora.
-
Jun 16, 2017Esse álbum é simplesmente maravilhoso. Todas as melodías, as letras, os ritmos, tudo, sao incriveis e misturados perfeitos. Obrigada lorde por essa obra de arte linda wue eu vou carregar comigo pra sempre.
-
Jun 16, 2017Melodrama é tão emocionante quanto sua essência. É inspirador, é reluzente
Se inicia agitado e afrontoso aos sentimentos, e termina com esperança e melancolia, mesmo a melodia querendo provar o contrario. -
Jun 16, 2017Such an amazing album
Its incredible how talent is Lorde , The Louvre is my favorite song soo farr , LORDE MAKE MY WIGG FLEWWW TO ANOTHER CONTINENT , GAWD IM SNATCHED! -
Jun 16, 2017Album of the Year, Absolutely blew my mind. Very cohesive body of work. You can appreciate the way she's matured. Her synesthesia really distinguish Lorde from her peers.
-
Jun 16, 2017Felizmente Deus é maravilhoso, após 4 longos anos nos agraciou com essa obra-prima. Amém Ella Yelich-O'Connor, pode vir Grammy de Album of the Year

-
Jun 16, 2017Lorde grows up and gets even stronger, her steady. She's a new face of the good music, i love it. looking forward to seeing her on grammy. The Louvre is my favorite.
-
Jun 16, 2017I love this album an amazing sophomore effort from Lorde. You can appreciate the way she's matured, the album sounds very cohesive and there's no track that could be left off. The Louvre and Writer In The Dark are both highlights and probably the best songs of her career besides Ribs
-
Jun 16, 2017Melhor álbum do ano, o AOTY vem pra pisar no Ed **** ´pode até não fazer o mesmo sucesso de Pure Heroine mas é muito superior em qualidade, Homemade Dynamite melhor música do álbum
-
Jun 16, 2017Talented, brilliant, incredible, amazing, show stopping, spectacular, never the same, totally unique, completely not ever been done before, unafraid to reference or not reference, put it in a blender, **** on it, vomit on it, eat it, give birth to it
-
Jun 16, 2017Lorde, Lorde, Lorde. What a beautiful masterpiece you have produced. Melodrama is pop perfection, and one of the best albums released so far this year. Green Light, Sober, Liability and Perfect Places were great tasters of what the album was to offer and we are not disappointed. Lorde has matured as an artist and this is an extreme step up from 2013 debut 'Pure Heroine'.
-
Jun 16, 2017Melodrama manages to maintain Lorde's uniquely introspective songwriting even though its subject matter at times feels completely different. This is being lauded as the best pop record of 2017 and it's very easy to see why. It doesn't do what producers and record labels think a breakup or party album should do, rather it comes from the mind of a clever 20 year old.
-
Jun 16, 2017Brilliant. Incredible. Amazing. Showstopping. Spectacular. THIS IS THE ALBUM OF THE MILLENNIUM!!!!!!!!!!!! :)
Highlights:
Green Light
Sober
The Louvre
Hard Feelings/Loveless
Supercut -
Jun 16, 2017For sure this masterpiece is the best album of 2017. So far. "We told you this was melodrama"! Best tracks: Green Light, Sober, Sober II, The Louvre, Perfect Places!

Jun 16, 2017inanilmaz bir albüm
dort yil boyunca beklememize degen bir album oldu gelecek album icin cok heyecanliyim. pure heroine esintileri var demisti fakat ben o hissi almadim, cok sira dişi bir album bravo. -
Jun 16, 2017Lorde's new album is what every album strives to be. It's experimental and fresh without being disjoint and uncohesive. Every song seems to leap off the album and really draw you into her world leading it to definitely be the best album of the year.
-
Jun 16, 2017So much Cohesive and brilliant arranged ! Perfect... The Best 2017 'album. Lorde is amazing, every time give us with a amazing creative types voices and deserve a grammy album of the year.
-
Jun 16, 2017The 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 9. But all the others are heavenly, Sober II, Sober, Homemade Dynamite, Writer in The Dark. Love them all!

Jun 16, 2017Puro, intenso, criativo e novo. Lorde faz muito bem sempre, do começo ao fim. Podemos sempre esperar cada vez mais e mais, ela entrega. Ou seja, valeu a espera.
-
Jun 16, 2017Very well projected album. "Melodrama" has everything, from a drama record to a party record.
A lot of emotions in this record, that keeps us attached to it. Good job Ella. -
Jun 16, 2017Well constructed and with an incredible concept, Lorde really stepped up from her previous releases. The way some tracks blend with the other and some Greenlight notes you can hear on Supercut make the album something to listen from start to end, never skipping a track. Her best work so far, and one of the best albums this year. Shortly saying: David Bowie was right.
-
Jun 16, 2017Didn't feel comfortable while hearing this album at all. Lorde chose the wrong lead single with "Green Light", the worst 2016 lookalike song I've ever heard. But there's good songs in the album by the way, definitely not something I would recommend.
-
Jun 16, 2017Extremely interesting and greatly written second album from Lorde. Very impressed, big improvements from the first album.
Best song(s):
Green Light
Sober II (Melodrama)
Sober
Perfect Places
Homemade Dynamite
Worst Song(s):

Jun 16, 2017certamente um trabalho bom mais nada de novo na insdustria musical , melhor album de lorde sem duvidas, porém não é o melhor de 2017. Nota 3 para o Álbum!
-
Jun 16, 2017Is an incredible album, perhaps the best of what is going of the year, the sound that shows is beautiful a great change with respect to PH, sound, lyrics and more developed voice make this record a jewel and the best of his career.

Jun 16, 2017Interesting and with a lot of heart in it. Very happy to listen a second good job of Lorde. I wish a sequence wuth good albums like that. The lyrics are about the Lorde feelings and what she understands what is right.
-
Jun 16, 2017
-
Jun 16, 2017Melodrama un álbum con muy buenos ritmos pero solo queda en eso ya que su voz en sí no varía a no ser de Green Light , ya que las demás canciones son lo mismo solo con diferentes sonidos de fondo.
-
Jun 16, 2017There's only like 5 good songs on this album the rest second half is weak and it doesn't delivers in what Pure Heroine did. It has great instrumentals tho.
-
Jun 16, 2017
-
Jun 16, 2017É maravilhoso, Lorde conseguiu mostrar um amadurecimento incrível. Impressionante o conceito simples, mas ao mesmo tempo genial do álbum e como as faixas contam uma história em sequência que pode acontecer com qualquer pessoa. Eu, mais uma vez, tiro meu chapéu pra Lorde, um dos maiores talentos que surgiram neste século. Alguém dá mais alguns Grammys pra ela?!
-
Jun 16, 2017
-
Jun 16, 2017Lirica e sonoramente, o álbum é incrível, bem escrito, as letras são profundas, ela realmente conseguiu se fixar como uma artista de grande renome no cenário internacional. Digno de ser chamado de álbum do ano, um pop inovador e que merece atenção. Meus parabéns à Lorde.
-
Jun 16, 2017This is, probably, perfect. One of the best albums of the years makes us see the colors that Lorde see while listen to the songs. I think there's no bad music in the whole album. She's ready to make (more) history than ever.
-
Jun 16, 2017Talented, brilliant, incredible, amazing, show stopping, spectacular, never the same, totally unique, completely not ever been done before, unafraid to reference or not reference, put it in a blender, **** on it, vomit on it, eat it, give birth to it.
-
Jun 16, 2017This is a masterpiece by Lorde. The way she mixes up the instrumentals is revolutionary and of tip-top quality. It is a record that makes you travel around beautiful landscapes and fleshes out amazing colors.
Evey song is so visual and colorful in its own way. This is ART. PERFECTION. -
Jun 16, 2017Cuando va a dejar de sorprender esta mujer? Nos hemos dado cuenta de que su capacida llega más allá de interpretar una canción electrónica. David Bowie no se equivocó, ella es el futuro de la música.
-
Jun 16, 2017Uno de los mejores discos del año, Lorde muestra como batallar contra la soledad y decepciones y en lo personal me identifico mucho con esas canciones, como Sober y Liability.
-
Jun 16, 2017this is just amazing, Lorde has grown up an her music too, but now its more fun, more
Variety of rhythms from the beggining to the end, green light is a masterpiece that makes you feel alive, it's the happiest song i ever heard from lorde, and then "Liability" with a beautiful lyric that makes you cry tough, and the whoie album shows a really hard work , ¡well done lorde! -
Jun 16, 2017The álbum is amazing, from the end to The beginning. After all this time without Lorde she give us what we want and definitely this is one of The best pop albums of the 2017. Bravo Melodrama.
-
Jun 16, 2017Lorde has grown so much from her debut to this album. It's a very cohesive album and you can tell the huge effort she and her team put into the album by it's lyric-writing all the way to the production.
-
Jun 16, 2017Good music grows on you. Excellent original sounds are unfamiliar at first, as it is meant to be. Here is an album that is both original and extremely beautiful: it is emotional yet relevant with clean production and hypnotic, profound composition.
-
Jun 16, 2017After almost 4-year break Lorde truly delivers us one of best 2017 records. Bringing us Writer in the dark - Kate Bush-esque ballad she states her new career highlight among with The Louvre. Not to forget that Lorde writes and co-produces all the songs herself. Truly deserved 10/10. Congratulations.
-
Jun 16, 2017the best album of 2017 so far. She deserves a grammy for that. I love the lyrics and the beats. She is a legend and I lover and her songs so so much..
-
Jun 16, 2017
-
Jun 16, 2017The best alternative album of the year ! I think it will be #1 on Billboard Hot 200 from the first week. Lorde is one of the most original artists nowadays.
-
Jun 16, 2017After listening to Melodrama, I've concluded that Lorde just can't make bad music. Melodrama is one step after every pop album released these period with wonderful and creative melodies! Another album and Lorde just can't let me down.

Jun 16, 2017Very good album, easily the best pop album of 2017 and one of the best too. Lorde put her hearts through sad songs and some happy songs too, accompanied with great production too.
-

-
Jun 16, 2017The full album is filled with talent, no fillers, I am in love with HARDFEELINGS/Loveless, Sober 2 and Louvre they really have potential also Sober, she made a really good album 1000/10
-
Jun 16, 2017A really appreciable album right there, songs are great, instruments are
-
Jun 16, 2017This album is so good, sone songs are very sad and others are very happy, this is as her said dance record when you can throw your sadness on dance floor, thank you Lorde for outdoing yourself again.
-
Jun 16, 2017AOTY! She did it I’m so proud, such a beautiful album. Saved 2017 she is so underrated, Louvre is that bop I hope she gets a couple of hits out of the album
-
Jun 16, 2017Best pop album of the year. Lorde delivered again with 11 set of songs with great production while she still wrote the lyrics so brutally honest (Green Light, Hard Feelings/loveless, liability, perfect places).
-

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.
