Νέο Κομμάτι & Βίντεο
Από την Lorde.
Άκου το Mood Ring
Αύριο 20/8 κυκλοφορεί το νέο άλμπουμ της Lorde, με τίτλο "Solar Power".
Μετά τα singles “Stoned at the Nail Salon” και “Solar Power” η Νεοζηλανδή τραγουδίστρια κυκλοφόρησε ακόμα ένα κομμάτι, το "Mood Ring".
This is a song I am very excited about, it’s so much fun to me. Obviously when making this album I did a deep-dive into ’60s, Flower Child culture. I wanted to understand the commune life, dropping out from society and trying to start again. That really resonated to me when writing this album. One thing that occurred to me as a major parallel between that time and our time is our wellness culture and our culture of spirituality, pseudo-spirituality, wellness, pseudo-wellness. Things like eating a macro-biotic vegan diet or burning sage, keeping crystals, reading tarot cards or your horoscope. These were all things that they were dabbling in back then, and that me and my girlfriends are dabbling in today. I was like “I think there’s a pop song in here.” So this is kind of my extremely satirical look at all of those vibes.
Δείτε το βίντεο που συνοδεύει το κομμάτι, έχοντας κατά νου αυτό που λέει η ίδια: "I'll say it once and then never again: This is satire. She is not me"

Lyrics
I’m tryna blow bubbles but inside
Can’t seem to fix my mood
Today it’s as dark as my roots
If I ever let them grow out
Now all of my oceans have riptides
Can’t seem to find what’s wrong
The whole world is letting me down
Don’t you think the early 2000s seem so far away?
Ladies, begin your sun salutations
Transcendental in your meditations
Love and light
You can burn sage, and I’ll cleanse the crystals
We can get high, but only if the wind blows
Just right
I can’t feel a thing
I keep looking at my mood ring
Tell me how I’m feeling
Floating away, floating away
I’m tryna get well from the inside
Plants and celebrity news
All the vitamins I consume
Let’s fly somewhere eastern, they’ll have what I need
Ladies, begin your sun salutations
Pluto in Scorpio generation
Love and light
You can burn sage, and I’ll cleanse the crystals
We can get high, but only if the wind blows
Just right
I can’t feel a thing
I keep looking at my mood ring
Tell me how I’m feeling
Floating away, floating away
All the sad girls sing
We’ll keep dancing til the mood rings
Tell us how we’re feeling
Floating away, floating away
Take me to some kinda place
Anywhere
Watch the sun set, look back on my life
I just wanna know, will it be alright?
