Today is a chilly, -13 degree (srsly?!) Monday afternoon. I'm not planning on leaving the house to embrace the wrath of Chiberia's weather, so here I am relaxing at home with some soothing music.
Right now, I cannot get enough of 17-year-old Ella Yelich-O'Connor, better known by her stagename, Lorde. Her album Pure Heroine is a favorite at the moment. I'm sure everyone has gotten a bit sick of hearing the song "Royals" on the radio (as radio stations continue to murder great songs by their endless repeat of the same five songs), but I promise you her album is awesome! There's something unique about her lyrics that keep me so engage with her songs, but I can't quite put my finger on it. If someone knows what it is, please let me know! (;
One of my favorites off this album is "Buzzcut Season," it has a mesmerizing melody. Her performance on Letterman was raw emotion, you can really see how she feels her music and embodies it in a somewhat "weird" dance (as some like to call it). I get goosebumps when I see videos of her live performances.
