"Baby, be the class clown..."

...I'll be the beauty queen in tears
It's a new art form showing people how little we care 
We're so happy even when we're smiling out of fear
Let's go down to the tennis court and talk it up like, yeah

The chorus of the Lorde song Tennis Court are going round my head for a few days now. Not only because of the lyrics. It's also about the beat. close your eyes while listening to this song and you gonna feel how it is taking you higher and higher. your mind will reach the sky. amazing lyrics, an amazing beat, an amazing voice... what's more? Lorde whose real name is Ella Yelich O'Connor comes from New Zealand. New Zealand is a 'cool' country with the kiwi birds and the citizens speaking with this beautiful accent - even better than British. so listen up! here comes Lorde.

this shrill strange voice would probably annoy me, but it doesn't. why? if you listen to her songs once you will understand. this young lady makes the words swim in the air and you don't know the way to his heart like she does :) there is nothing I could compare her music to. the only thing I know is Alex Winston is already one of my favourite musicians I discovered this year and probably one of the best I listened to so far (in my whole live). the timbre of her voice makes her doubtlessly unique. just listen! that's the best thing you can do to feel the same as I do (cause I am listening to her album right now).
