Lorde al lavoro sul nuovo album

Lorde, la giovanissima cantante neozelandese esplosa grazie al successo di Royals, è pronta per registrare il suo nuovo disco. Il suo album di debutto,Pure Heroine, ha raggiunto la terza posizione della Billboard 200 e il quarto posto della classifica inglese.

Dopo aver fatto incetta di tutti i premi più importanti (come i Grammy Awards, ad esempio), è arrivato il momento di pensare al suo secondo lavoro. E’ necessario un riscontro positivo da parte della critica e del pubblico per evitare il rischio “meteora” ma i presupposti per una carriera avviata, ad oggi, ci sono tutti.

Ella Marija Lani Yelich-O’Connor -questo il suo vero nome all’anagrafe- ha caricato via Instagram la foto di una candela accesa a rappresentare e ufficializzare il ‘work in progress’ sulle sue prossime canzoni inedite incise (“i always remind myself to bring a candle for the studio and finally i did today and ohhhhhhh”)

Una candela in studio di registrazione, oltre 80.000 Mi piace e la curiosità per un disco che probabilmente vedrà la luce nel 2015.

Royals, lyrics

[Verse 1]
I’ve never seen a diamond in the flesh
I cut my teeth on wedding rings in the movies
And I’m not proud of my address,
In a torn-up town, no postcode envy

But every song’s like gold teeth, grey goose, trippin’ in the bathroom
Blood stains, ball gowns, trashin’ the hotel room,
We don’t care, we’re driving Cadillacs in our dreams.
But everybody’s like Cristal, Maybach, diamonds on your timepiece.
Jet planes, islands, tigers on a gold leash.
We don’t care, we aren’t caught up in your love affair.

And we’ll never be royals (royals).
It don’t run in our blood,
That kind of luxe just ain’t for us.
We crave a different kind of buzz.
Let me be your ruler (ruler),
You can call me queen Bee
And baby I’ll rule, I’ll rule, I’ll rule, I’ll rule.
Let me live that fantasy.

[Verse 2]
My friends and I—we’ve cracked the code.
We count our dollars on the train to the party.
And everyone who knows us knows that we’re fine with this,
We didn’t come from money.

But every song’s like gold teeth, grey goose, trippin’ in the bathroom.
Blood stains, ball gowns, trashin’ the hotel room,
We don’t care, we’re driving Cadillacs in our dreams.
But everybody’s like Cristal, Maybach, diamonds on your timepiece.
Jet planes, islands, tigers on a gold leash
We don’t care, we aren’t caught up in your love affair

And we’ll never be royals (royals).
It don’t run in our blood
That kind of luxe just ain’t for us.
We crave a different kind of buzz.
Let me be your ruler (ruler),
You can call me queen Bee
And baby I’ll rule, I’ll rule, I’ll rule, I’ll rule.
Let me live that fantasy.

Ooh ooh oh
We’re bigger than we ever dreamed,
And I’m in love with being queen.
Ooh ooh oh
Life is great without a care
We aren’t caught up in your love affair.

And we’ll never be royals (royals).
It don’t run in our blood
That kind of luxe just ain’t for us.
We crave a different kind of buzz
Let me be your ruler (ruler),
You can call me queen Bee
And baby I’ll rule, I’ll rule, I’ll rule, I’ll rule.
Let me live that fantasy.
