The Liberal Agenda – Lorde is so cool
What went down at Lorde’s surprise shows in Auckland?
The intimate, invite-only surprise series of sets took place in the darkness of the bathrooms at an Auckland central YMCA.
I really like Lorde.
I think her music is really cool and I think her coolness as an artist impacts everything she does.
When she speaks she roars.
The power of Lorde’s voice online managed to project from the netherworld of cyberspace and tear into the real life as she sent out a treasure hunt for Melodrama that saw Aucklanders ripped from their lounge rooms and rushing around town in a confused and curious friction.
The rupture in the space time continuum spewed out Matrix green and scribbled notes.
She followed this up with a very clever guessing game for the name of her album.
Ever.
I liked Solar Power when I saw the songs live.
I thought appearing in Central Park and using that footage immediately for her new video was very cool.
I like the new songs, she’s pure Guerrilla Culture, her ability to disrupt and hijack our attention is real power.
The music is just the victory lap.
All hail, Lorde!
Increasingly having independent opinion in a mainstream media environment which mostly echo one another has become more important than ever, so if you value having an independent voice – please donate here.
All true Bomber but I do find something disingenuous in her forced smile?
I think when you earn praise from the likes of David Bowie, and get invited to perform at his memorial, you clearly have something. Good on her.
Meh. PR junkie.
These appearances are highly calculated PR stunts.
Manipulating the punters.
Hilarious, the incels, grumpy codgers and grumpy fat gutted dads and tradies that love to crap on Lorde are exactly the group her work is not aimed at!
Wait till they find out she supports Palestine too.
Whereas Chris Bishop is so unhip it’s a wonder that his bum doesn’t fall off! (with apologies to “The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy”)
I’ve seen a lot of live music, and talent shows itself no matter what genre of music is being played ,,,, we can safely bet the flock of Lorde haters have never been to see her live….
Pope P — ” What exactly is “cool” about Lorde?” ,,,, Tiger Mountain described it well ,, in your case not having fans like you….. :0
Lorde was also aware that Zionism was criminally bad ,,, before the Zionists ripped the curtain down and demonstrated to the world just how mass murdering bad they truly are….
It’s was cool of her to stand up for equal human rights against a powerful criminal lobby and network ,,,,, extra cool that she’s now been proven correct https://x.com/luigidaniele10/status/1843573702157578533 “what were you doing during the genocide?”
In between the divide that is lovers and haters, there is the famed black American poet Audre Lorde. 1934-1992. “The tools of the master will never dismantle the house of the master”. https://www.rockandart.org/audre-lorde-poet-warrior-and-mother/ She was married to a Rollins – that’s actual royalty. ‘Royals’? actually a bit of a diss on Jay-Z; better left in the soup of time…..
The tools of the master in this case are/were wielded by engineers using sound vibration detection tech: https://nz.linkedin.com/in/vicoconnor
Ella Marija Lani Yellich O’Connor was brave and honest enough to state that she did not wish to continue working with the cap that Joel Little was using (brain reading tech), so yes, she is cool.
Audre Lorde the feminist poet was discriminated against in school due to her eyesight being less than 100%. She wrote and published over 30 books of poetry and philosophy and is very much celebrated in the United States and elsewhere as a feminist icon, an intellectual and a fighter for parity. Now Mr Google is getting the two confused and the great legacy of Audre Lorde becoming squashed by the celebrity machine is a crime of attrition. If you have any love of language, poetry and truth then realise that every ghostwriter suffers in a silence imposed by the punitive system of ownership and copyright which is a fiction devised by usurers and the usurious – after all, does the morning ruru receive a cheque from rnz? Did the humpback whale get compensation for being recorded without permission and having his voice sent into outer space on a fatuous golden disk aboard Voyager 1 & 2 to god knows where? I doubt it.
