Lorde Quotes : pic 000005048
I curate my life in a way. It's always playing on my mind, kind of a love-hate relationship. I'm not one of those people who's, like, 'I wish Facebook wasn't around,' because, you know, it is what it is. -- Lorde
Lorde Quotes : pic 000019266
My name is Ella; that's who I am at school, hanging out with friends, while I'm doing homework. But when I'm up on stage, 'Lorde' is a character. -- Lorde

Lorde Quotes : pic 000060298
I've been in some situations where people have treated me like a fascinating toy. You know, it's just like an interesting kind of fun thing to have a play with. It's very weird for me. I feel like a tiny baby. -- Lorde
Lorde Quotes : pic 000072165
Does anything really matter? We all end up in the same place. All that's left is our Wikipedia entry. -- Lorde
Lorde Quotes : pic 000104797
We all have Tumblr, and we all have Instagram and everything. People care so much about it because, now, any random can be famous on the Internet if their world looks good on Tumblr. And so everyone at high school strives for this kind of aesthetic correctness. -- Lorde
Lorde Quotes : pic 000113214
My advice to young people wanting to make music and to be in this industry is to really spend your time making music. Make so much music you have no friends. Make music. Figure out what it is you love, and ... because if you're making cool art, then everything else will fall into line. -- Lorde
Lorde Quotes : pic 000126026
Glory and gore go hand in hand. -- Lorde
Lorde Quotes : pic 000130534
With pop music and pop musicians, you know everything about everyone all the time, particularly their physical appearance. With female musicians, that's made a big thing of, and I think people, certainly with me, have appreciated a bit of mystery. -- Lorde
Lorde Quotes : pic 000137436
What I do is so important to me. It's like being a parent, in some ways, of a super-demanding , high-achieving child, with a cry that sounds really cool on the radio. -- Lorde
Lorde Quotes : pic 000151022
My dad is a civil engineer, and my mom is a stay-at-home mom. The fact that my parents weren't really involved in music was kind of good, because it meant that I had something that was private and personal. -- Lorde

We've both got a million bad habits to kick, not sleeping is one.
We're biting our nails, you're biting my lip, I'm biting my tongue. -- Lorde

But I live in a hologram with you. -- Lorde
Lorde Quotes : pic 000264330
I come from a big, loud family, and I'm the quieter one. Performing is something I have to switch on. I've heard I get real sassy onstage, which I'm not in real life! It's fun to be that person for an hour a night. -- Lorde
Lorde Quotes : pic 000325190
If I'm going to dress up, I like things that are quite long and classic. I like feeling dressed up and like a lady. -- Lorde

Lorde Quotes : pic 000352306
I come from a short fiction background, and my mom is a poet, so I've always read poetry; I've always had a lot of different influences both linguistically and musically. -- Lorde

Lorde Quotes : pic 000386696

Lorde Quotes : pic 000457379
I'm a Kiwi. I'm from a beach suburb called Takapuna, which is on the north shore of Auckland in New Zealand. -- Lorde

Delicate in every way but one
God knows we like archaic kinds of fun
Chance is the only game I play with, baby
We let our battles choose us. -- Lorde
Lorde Quotes : pic 000475408
I'm surrounded by the beach, so I love to fish and to dive and to swim. I walk a lot, and I bike around. I hang out at the beach, really, and muck around. -- Lorde
Lorde Quotes : pic 000478823
Nobody asks me about what male musicians I think about; I only ever get asked about females. -- Lorde
Lorde Quotes : pic 000492074
I've always been fascinated with aristocracy. I'm really interested in the Ivy Leagues, the final clubs, all the really old-money families, the concept of old money. -- Lorde
Lorde Quotes : pic 000595143
I'm speaking for a bunch of girls when I say that the idea that feminism is completely natural and shouldn't even be something that people find mildly surprising, it's just a part of being a girl in 2013. -- Lorde
Lorde Quotes : pic 000596184
I'd refer to myself as a feminist. I don't think my music is overtly rooted in feminism. I'm a teenager, and 95 percent of my friends are boys, and that's just the way I've always been. -- Lorde
Lorde Quotes : pic 000612052
Taylor Swift is so flawless, and so unattainable, and I don't think it's breeding anything good in young girls. -- Lorde

We're so happy, even when we're smiling out of fear. -- Lorde
Lorde Quotes : pic 000684870
I do not need someone to complete me, but if you wanted to, we could walk next to each other into whatever is coming next. -- Lorde
Lorde Quotes : pic 000697013
If your dreams don't scare you, they are not big enough. -- Lorde
Lorde Quotes : pic 000711648
Musicians like James Blake were a big influence on me. How he uses his vocals is amazing. And then Yeasayer and Animal Collective, who aren't pop bands exactly, but they do something that is so catchy and undeniable and so much fun. -- Lorde
Lorde Quotes : pic 000745222
I'm really interested in kind of weird social situations and cliques, watching girls vying for attention, watching how the popularity thing happens. I've always thought too hard about everything. -- Lorde
Lorde Quotes : pic 000760577
Don't you think that is boring how people talk -- Lorde
Lorde Quotes : pic 000770445
I'm a pop princess at heart. Pop is about distilling what you want to say and making it easy. And the way I write isn't about making things easy. It's a weird juxtaposition. -- Lorde
Lorde Quotes : pic 000802203
I like simple clothes, but sometimes I'll go for a goth-witch vibe. -- Lorde
Lorde Quotes : pic 000804082
David Bowie told me my music sounds like tomorrow -- Lorde
Lorde Quotes : pic 000856963
I get paralyzingly nervous a lot of times, so I tried bravado. The way I dress and carry myself, a lot of people find it intimidating. I think my whole career can be boiled down to the one word I always say in meetings: 'strength.' -- Lorde
Lorde Quotes : pic 000883428
I find this curious - two photos from today, one edited so my skin is perfect and one real. remember flaws are ok. -- Lorde
Lorde Quotes : pic 000923967
People respond to something which intrigues them instead of something that gives them all the information - particularly in pop, which is, like, the genre for knowing way too much about everyone and everything. -- Lorde
Lorde Quotes : pic 000925092
When I was trying to come up with a stage name, I thought 'Lord' was super rad, but really masculine - ever since I was a little kid, I have been really into royals and aristocracy. So to make Lord more feminine, I just put an 'e' on the end! Some people think it's religious, but it's not. -- Lorde
Lorde Quotes : pic 000990144
Obviously I've had this fascination with aristocracy my whole life. Like, the kings and queens of 500 years ago ... they're like rock stars. If there was a 'TMZ' 500 years ago, it would be about, like, Henry VIII and Marie Antoinette and all those people. -- Lorde
Lorde Quotes : pic 001001306
I am really into how words sound out loud, so I was always the kid who would, like, read the page of the book to herself in her room over and over and over. And Raymond Carver is great for that. Tobias Wolff is an author who is really good for that as well. -- Lorde
Lorde Quotes : pic 001014436
That slow burn wait while it gets dark, bruising the sun.
I feel grown up with you in your car, I know it's dumb. -- Lorde
Lorde Quotes : pic 001022813
I'm usually really drawn to a song, and I know it would be good to cover if it sounds like something that I could write, or I wished I could write. Sometimes a writer just sounds like they're in your head, and that is really cool for me. -- Lorde
Lorde Quotes : pic 001037942
I'll let you in on something big: I'm not a white-teeth teen. -- Lorde
Lorde Quotes : pic 001045798
I love Top 40 pop, don't get me wrong; I just don't think that there's anyone in Top 40 pop that's 'real.' -- Lorde
Lorde Quotes : pic 001114645
The drink you spilt all over me
'Lover's Spit' left on repeat
My mom and dad let me stay home
It drives you crazy, getting old -- Lorde
Lorde Quotes : pic 001120241
We might be hollow, but we're brave -- Lorde
Lorde Quotes : pic 001123136
It's a new art form, showing people how little we care. -- Lorde
Lorde Quotes : pic 001166117
I've always listened to a lot of rap. It's all, 'Look at this car that cost me so much money, look at this Champagne.' It's super fun. -- Lorde
Lorde Quotes : pic 001214071
I love thrift shopping. You can get ten things because everything costs, like, three dollars. -- Lorde
Lorde Quotes : pic 001242210
Don't be afraid. Be the kind of person your mother warned you about. -- Lorde
Lorde Quotes : pic 001244280
You're the only friend I need
Sharing beds like little kids
And laughing 'til our ribs get tough
But that will never be enough
You're the only friend I need
Sharing beds like little kids
And laughing 'til our ribs get tough
But that will never be enough -- Lorde
Lorde Quotes : pic 001259012
Let me be your ruler, you can call me queen bee. -- Lorde
Lorde Quotes : pic 001259593
People have told me that Ive helped them feel confident, like they can say things they want to say. They can talk about feminism in class without people calling them a lesbian. Thats so amazing that I can make someone feel like that. -- Lorde
Lorde Quotes : pic 001270161
Raise a glass, 'cause I'm not done saying it.
They all wanna get rough, get away with it.
Let 'em talk 'cause we're dancing in this world alone, world alone, we're all alone. -- Lorde
Lorde Quotes : pic 001294928
Grace Jones was an influence, because I was like, 'These shoulders! These pants! Girls can wear pants and be awesome.' That's something I definitely embody. -- Lorde
Lorde Quotes : pic 001322340
I started writing music when I was around twelve. My current record company saw a video of me performing at my school's talent show. -- Lorde
Lorde Quotes : pic 001323912
I try to stay away from talking about boys all the time. You can go to Taylor Swift to hear that. -- Lorde
Lorde Quotes : pic 001398578
I'm very conscious of people having pretty short attention spans: I know, I'm guilty of it. I'm 17 now: what happens by the time I'm 21, am I a burn-out or something? Will they still listen to my record? -- Lorde
Lorde Quotes : pic 001400746
In a perfect world, I would never do any interviews, and probably there would be one photo out there of me, and that would be it. -- Lorde
Lorde Quotes : pic 001414448
It must have been when I was 14 or 15 that I started tentatively writing songs and was able to convey an emotion and a lyric with what I wanted to say. -- Lorde
Lorde Quotes : pic 001432327

Lorde Quotes : pic 001499838
I went to my prom. I wore this olive green, floor-length backless dress. It was rad. -- Lorde
Lorde Quotes : pic 001502439
I think young people are the most creative and the coolest - people that we should be learning from. Even when I'm at a party, I'm analyzing it and thinking about it in the context of how I would write about it. That side of me never switches off. -- Lorde
Lorde Quotes : pic 001539645
Of course I got lipstick all over my lil' nose in about 5 seconds, nothing's changed. -- Lorde
Lorde Quotes : pic 001553096
Maybe the internet raised us, or maybe people are jerks. -- Lorde
Lorde Quotes : pic 001573571
I know when I'm onstage, I don't think about how it looks, I just concentrate on really feeling what I hear. But I totally know I look like Gollum when I perform, so it's cool. -- Lorde
Lorde Quotes : pic 001586583
Let me in the ring. I'll show you what that big word means. -- Lorde
Lorde Quotes : pic 001598312

Lorde Quotes : pic 001603737
I don't think people look at how pop stars live and feel anything aspirational at all. -- Lorde
Lorde Quotes : pic 001606387
Coming from New Zealand, all the music I listen to is not made by New Zealanders. People never come to New Zealand to play a show because it's in the middle of nowhere. -- Lorde

Not in the swing of things but what I really mean is not in the swing of things yet -- Lorde
Lorde Quotes : pic 001664005
As soon as you say it about a record, you're like some little zombie in a funny dungeon. -- Lorde
Lorde Quotes : pic 001704881
Around the middle of last year I started listening to a lot of rap, like Nicki Minaj and Drake. They all sing about such opulence, stuff that just didn't relate to me-or anyone that I knew. I began thinking, 'How are we listening to this? It's completely irrelevant'. -- Lorde
Lorde Quotes : pic 001734503
Like wildflowers you must allow yourself to grow in all the places people thought you never would. -- Lorde
Lorde Quotes : pic 001747657
I find a lot of feminist reading quite confusing and that often there's a set of rules, and people will be like, 'Oh, this person isn't a true feminist because they don't embody this one thing,' and I don't know, often it can be a gray area, and it can be a hard thing to navigate. -- Lorde
Lorde Quotes : pic 001792880
I read a lot of short fiction, like Kurt Vonnegut and Raymond Carver and Wells Tower. -- Lorde
Lorde Quotes : pic 001828841
I think it would be impossible not to be an Internet kid, coming from New Zealand, because culturally it's a little barren. -- Lorde
Lorde Quotes : pic 001831831
Everyone's competing for a love they won't receive. -- Lorde
Lorde Quotes : pic 001864241
We're bigger than we ever dreamed, and I'm in love with being queen. -- Lorde
Lorde Quotes : pic 001873927
The phrase 'teen hottie' literally makes me want to throw up. -- Lorde
