From Cleveland.com:

“Indie-pop singer Lorde made a tour stop into Cleveland Wednesday night where she performed in front thousands at Jacobs Pavilion. The 17-year-old is known for her unique voice and in the video above, concertgoers take a shot at singing along to the song, “Royals.”

Lorde is traveling across North America to promote her debut studio album, “Pure Heroine,” which was nominated for a Grammy Award in Best Pop Vocal Album.”

So Lorde was in town last night…

Thnx, Ella Marija Lani Yelich-O’Connor. More syllables in her real name or number of years she’s been alive? Answer: push, if you count the stutters. I find it difficult to wrap my head around the fact that I’m sitting here as a 23 year old in my cube eating a party size bag of Skittles that I’ve categorized by color, one at a time, like they’re the nectar of life, and Lorde is leading her own band of hippies and getting Grammy nominations as a 17 year old. But that’s neither here nor there.

Do yourself a favor and click the link so you can watch the video I couldn’t figure out how to embed in this blog. Couple takeaways from it:

1. Good or bad when the only word your fans can come up with when asked why they like you is “weird”?

2. 

 

 

3. If you were the father of one of the two 5th grade girls wearing glorified sports bras and headbands, how many consecutive days would your daughter be wearing turtlenecks and snow pants in public?

4. What a fun album name for a 17 year old. “Pure Heroine”.

5. She probably outdrew the Indians game.

 

So pissed I missed the tailgate
