I noticed people were commenting on the strange way this singer moves and her expressions, then I realized what it reminded me of. There's a bonus of misheard lyrics on the Cocker video.



You believe in an invisible god, and dismiss people who say they are trans? Really?

Don't care... I love the album and she could look like a bag of smashed crabs trying to escape a blender for all it matter to here voice and music. Singers... sing. It goes in my ears, not in my eyes.

She's only 16, a Kiwi and incredibly mature for her age in her attitude to music.

EDIT : A Joe Cocker is also awesome.

I note that Ms Lorde has done rather well for herself recently.

Had not been aware of Lorde before I saw her on the Grammys. (Self-admitted Fogey.) Didn't bother to watch her. Just closed my eyes and went, "Oh, my". That is some serious ear-candy right there. Will be buying her albums.

First song ever performed in public with my all-girl band at 18: "Feelin' Alright". Joe Cocker (2 chords; hard to mess up, nearly impossible to sing well). "you are so beautiful" had me in tears back then, too.
Never doubt a small group of concerned citizens can change the world; it's the only thing ever has
