crazy to think that this song has a big impact on Melodrama records and that it SOUNDS like it belongs in the album when she sings it with her own twist
nah the 1975 version is the original and is quite honestly better than ANY cover. But if you wanna point out things vocal aspects lords voice is very breathy and drags out the songs. its not a bad thing just different. but the original will always be the best
my favorite thing about this video as that you can clearly see that SHE is having FUN. it has nothing to do with the vocals or anything. she is having a good time and that’s what matters.
that's what all of lorde's performances are about. they're about the passion and the intensity of being in the moment; losing yourself in a show surrounded by people who share your interests/admire your music, and just dancing and singing along and having FUN. she never cares about her vocals, she just loses herself like a manic (in the best possibly way) and i love that
understand uyueurrseellff,,..zzZZ., i remember how frustrated i was last year. this time last year, how frustrated i was back in feb/march april how loner i was
I love that Lorde doesn't just cover songs to sound identical to the original artist but she brings her own sound into them. If you're complaining than you don't realize how truly talented she is. BUT ANYWAYS, I love hearing my fave covering another one of my faves.
So like any artist who does a cover? I love Lorde with all my heart but your comment is idiotic. Almost any cover of songs by famous artists are different from the original.
my heart skipped beats listening to this. a true legend recreating a song from an already legendary group. i can't wait to say that i've seen lorde and the 1975 perform live in front of my eyes
they got put down by the positive ones. and either way, it's Lorde covering something; people love to hate on Lorde doing covers even when she slays them.
i love this a lot. people are saying her voice doesn't suit this but that's not the point - her voice is so raw and low in this cover and it conveys so much feeling! also it's so so cool seeing how this ties in with melodrama
I LOVE HOW HAPPY SHE IS SINGING THIS SONG. HER HUGE SMILE AND HER DANCING IS SO CUTE! SHE IS SO PASSIONATE AND I LOVE IT! YOU SING YOUR HEART OUT GIRL! ❤️
People, calm down. This might not be her best performance but hey, consider this a live for herself, not for you. She said it herself, Somebody Else inspired Melodrama, and you can tell that she really liked this version of this song. Let her get lost and share a music piece she likes, a music that inspired her music; with people who likes her music, alright? I think music is a process, but not just finished products. I myself see this live as her showing us her progress, how she grew up in her music career, and I enjoy seeing her fully immersed in the performance. The chorus is too fast and too low for her voice, she doesn't bite into the lyrics, so what? The comment section is so negative.
yea i agree with all of that but like.... the chorus wasn't too low for her voice. dont get me wrong i loooove lorde but the lowest note in the chorus is the b under middle c, and that isn't low. lorde puts effort into every note and every word though, so it just sounds like it's too low i think. i'm not a music theory expert or anything tho lol
Connor Fung most of here are idiots and mostly doesnt have that mental capacity to understand such uniqueness and creativeness, i feel so sorry for them
Karina Singh so? She clearly said she loved the song... she sang the song she wanted or basically her way, as if like most of people can sing a song in the exact same way. She sang her song for her enjoyment and for the fans too and not for the people who will just pinpoint mistakes as if this was a record release demo of a song and acting like they're genius in critics.
I remember having Somebody Else sitting in my "that driving at night playlist" alongside Lorde's Melodrama album before I even realised/heard that she was also inspired by it. You can feel the connection between that track and the album. There's those tones that resonate across each other
Some songs are meant to be listened to with your eyes closed. This song, no matter who’s performing it, is one of those songs. It becomes a feeling. And I love that
Thank you for uploading this in full. I’m not a big Lorde fan as I don’t know too much about her, but you could easily see how much she loves singing that song and happy she was to perform that. It was a pleasure to watch. She really liked being up there and doing that. So... right on! Cool cool.
So I heard you found somebody else And at first I thought it was a lie I took all my things that make sounds The rest I can do without I don't want your body But I hate to think about you with somebody else Our love has gone cold You're intertwining your soul with somebody else I'm looking through you while you're looking through your phone And then leaving with somebody else No, I don't want your body But I'm picturing your body with somebody else Come on baby This ain't the last time that I'll see your face Come on baby You said you'd find someone to take my place I just don't believe that you have got it in you 'cause We are just gonna keep 'doin' it' and everytime I start to believe in anything you're saying I'm reminded that I should be getting over it I don't want your body But I hate to think about you with somebody else Our love has gone cold You're intertwining your soul with somebody else I'm looking through you while you're looking through your phone And then leaving with somebody else No, I don't want your body But I'm picturing your body with somebody else I don't want your body, I don't want your body I don't want your body, I don't want your body I don't want your body, I don't want your body Get someone you love? Get someone you need? Fuck that, get money I can't give you my soul 'cause we're never alone Get someone you love? Get someone you need? Fuck that, get money I can't give you my soul 'cause we're never alone Get someone you love? Get someone you need? Fuck that, get money I can't give you my soul 'cause we're never alone Get someone you love? Get someone you need? Fuck that, get money I can't give you my soul 'cause we're never alone I don't want your body But I hate to think about you with somebody else Our love has gone cold You're intertwining your soul with somebody else I'm looking through you while you're looking through your phone And then leaving with somebody else No, I don't want your body But I'm picturing your body with somebody else
This is so great. Loved it. Found myself singing along. Love the roughness of it all. She should release a studio version. I love The 1975 so much and this is one of my favorite songs and she did it justice.
This is crazy, this was posted the day I got with my ex. I haven’t listened to the original song since the break up because the song describes the situation perfectly and it would hurt too much. At the time we got together I was a huge Lorde fan and the 1975 is my favorite bad. This just felt like a sign the two things just coming together right now
I dig it.. I wasnt sure how she was gana pull of this song but i dig it.. This song will forever be a banger for me im extra critical of ppl who try n cover it
Just when I thought I couldn't love this song more... *Boom* , there goes Lorde and her stupid endless talent and her annoying beautiful face and fancy dress
I can't believe somebody else inspired *Melodrama* , somebody else is my favorite songs of all times, and my fav from the 1975, and Melodrama is my favorite album of all times. I think that's why both song and record speaks to me so well
of course no one could ever top the 1975 performing their own song but you can clearly see how much fun she was having while performing this and it was pretty cool! she did her thing, she didn't try to cover them and that is fine!
"Good but not the 1975" is such an original comment, and you're all so clever and fun to be around for pointing that out instead of lifting up the artist and enjoying the fact that this beautiful performance exists at all (please hear my sarcasm, I'm aware expression through text is like tv in a microchip)
