She was “on Martha’s Vineyard with my good friend Cazzie, staying at her house'
Yes, that’s a cucumber bong. Photo: YouTube After four lengthy New Zealand years, Lorde finally dropped her long-awaited single “Solar Power” yesterday, as well as an accompanying music video wherein she romps around a beach in a bright-yellow two-piece with a series of dancers who appear to be cheerfully preparing for some kind of human sacrifice . The feather-light song and visuals are a departure for Lorde, who is usually low-key upset about teenagers and human teeth.
In a new interview with Apple Music’s Zane Lowe, Lorde shared that the song was also influenced on a near-psychic level by three other unlikely sources: cicadas, whose mating calls are sampled on the track; Primal Scream’s “Loaded,” a song she’d never heard before she wrote “Solar Power” with Jack Antonoff, but which she now refers to as the “spiritual forebear” and the “original blueprint” for the single; and Larry David’s vacation home in Martha’s Vineyard.
Lorde goes on to explain that after her big swim, “My hair was wet, and when I came back into my room, I had made a little Yamaha DX keyboard, and I just started singing and kind of figuring this thing out.” You may be wondering why Lorde felt the need to share that her hair was wet, but this fact is actually quite pertinent to the story. Lorde, famously, has a lot of hair; after a “big swim” in saltwater, her head must be incredibly heavy.
