Fans have been waiting patiently for the Kiwi pop singer/songwriter’s follow-up to her massively successful debut album Pure Heroine released in 2013.
Now, to mark her birthday and her passing from being a teenager to a ‘newborn adult’, Lorde has shared an emotional passage on Facebook – discussing her coming of age, her past, and her future.
“I’m not a kid any more, and more and more I’m realizing that the weirdness of those Mylar balloons is going to be okay,” she wrote. “Writing ‘Pure Heroine’ was my way of enshrining our teenage glory, putting it up in lights forever so that part of me never dies, and this record – well, this one is about what comes next.”
She continued: “I want nothing more than to spill my guts RIGHT NOW about the whole thing – I want you to see the album cover, pore over the lyrics (the best I’ve written in my life), touch the merch, experience the live show. I can hardly stop myself from typing out the name. I just need to keep working a while longer to make it as good as it can be. You’ll have to hold on. The big day is not tomorrow, or even next month realistically, but soon. I know you understand.”
