Jun 16, 2017certamente um trabalho bom mais nada de novo na insdustria musical , melhor album de lorde sem duvidas, porém não é o melhor de 2017. Nota 3 para o Álbum!
-
Jun 30, 2017The album really follow the drama way, good job. It's sad and catchy, but somehow do not feel original for me, the lyrics are deep but too much pop. Good piano arranges.
Highlights: Sober, Liability.
Veredict: too overrated, good, catchy, but not a masterpiece in any way. -
Jun 19, 2017Way overrated. This album is less cohesive, as the songs dabble in different rhithms doing little to no effort to melt them into believable song structures, instead they're separated in songs or different verses. The only saving grace of this album is it's good lyric writing and Lorde's voice which is the true star, even when sung over ill-inspired beats and cheap Italo disco pianos.

Jun 16, 2017There's only like 5 good songs on this album the rest second half is weak and it doesn't delivers in what Pure Heroine did. It has great instrumentals tho.
-
Jul 21, 2017Debo decir que me esperaba más de ella, en este álbum la única canción que podría rescatar es "Sober." Espero que ella tome en cuenta que debe mejorar un poco más.

Aug 23, 2022fter four years of waiting, Lorde has truly delivered one of the best
pop albums of 2017.
With an exquisite production, the album holds in its catalogue some unforgettable tunes, from the triumphant opener 'Green Light', to the infectious anthem 'Supercut', which highly resembles Robyn's 2010 hit song 'Dancing on My Own', to the Kate Bush-esque ballad 'Writing in the Dark', or the eerie… -
Jun 16, 2017Didn't feel comfortable while hearing this album at all. Lorde chose the wrong lead single with "Green Light", the worst 2016 lookalike song I've ever heard. But there's good songs in the album by the way, definitely not something I would recommend.

Sep 6, 2018this album is so repetitive and boring , they are only 4 good songs . sorry but is the trut , im explaining good because lorde is so boring she just get new music like 4 years later , she is not an artist

Sep 5, 2019Lorde's songwriting in this album is a hit or miss, she attempts to make things "deep" but it doesn't work . Her scratchy vocals aren't the best, but the album does have about 3 goods songs. I think she attempted to make this album as "sad" ass possible but went overboard.
-
Jul 25, 2017Muy sobrevalorado, Uso los ritmos de Team y Green Light en casi todo el album, lo unico que cambia son las liricas de las canciones, paso de hacer buen material a lo tipico comercial, el album habla solo de fiestas y hombres, y hacer un album completo relacionado a eso se torna aburrido e insipido, al parecer se le acabaron las ideas.

Jun 16, 2017The album is dull and uninspired, I don’t get why critics keep hyping up basic music artist. Nothing new or creative about the album. She has potential as a songwriter but this album sounds like the typical ‘indie pop girl’ music of the last 7 years.
The songs all have a similar sound, just like her last album except this time there seems to be a bit of Born to Die copying going on. -
Jun 16, 2017The album lacks creativity and good songs. Wish she would take more inspiration from Britney Spears next time. Really a bad album. Green Lights and Supercut are far superior from the rest. Overall a childish and poor effort.
-
Jun 16, 2017Espero sinceramente mais. O álbum é bom com algumas trilhas super, mas no saldo final não deixa esse gosto de querer ouvir novamente, novamente, novamente ...
-
Jun 16, 2017Melodrama un álbum con muy buenos ritmos pero solo queda en eso ya que su voz en sí no varía a no ser de Green Light , ya que las demás canciones son lo mismo solo con diferentes sonidos de fondo.
-
Jun 17, 2017To be honest I didn't like tha album at all, quite overrated, didn't feel anything at all, but as always stuff like that will win several Grammy's because critics like it
-
Jun 18, 2017This is one of the most boring albums of the 2017. I don't like it because is the same all the album.And a lot of people don't like it (you can see it on the charts).

Jul 29, 2017Expected something much better when I saw the rating. The songs are not memorable at all. Overall a very boring and bland album. Best song of the album is Sober
-
Feb 17, 2019boring album... very generic both melody and lyrics .. vocals are avaregae.. very overrated album . I did not enjoy this album . highly forgettable songs.
-
Aug 11, 2019I LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS ALBUM. It's like what literally come out from a free, drunk but also miserable teenager. Every little thing in this album makes me feel truly alive.
-
Dec 18, 2019Fraquinho, inconsistente, enjoativo. Poderia ser melhor se não tivesse o Royals como antecessor. Causando uma imensa frustração com esse lançamento.
-
Sep 3, 2019extremamente genérico, qualquer álbum pop que você já ouviu na vida, tem no melodrama, sonoridade com a mesma porcaria de sempre, tenho nojo, old que é superestimado, gays cult que compram roupinha na renner costumam elogiar essa bomba, argh
-
Sep 3, 2019I didn't liked this album. I don't see emotions. This album isn't make sense for the name
-
May 6, 2020Probably the greatest album to come from a female vocalist in the past 30+ years. Lorde creates pure art within the track list and is met with top notch production.
-
May 25, 2021This is such amazing album, Lorde made it. It must be album of the year. My favorite songs : Liability, Perfect Places, Writting in the dark, ....

Oct 16, 2021Most overrated album of the century. Her voice is awful, her lyrics are cringy and her attitude is embarassing.

Jul 10, 2017There are no gimmicks. There’s nothing screaming for acceptance. Melodrama is a raw, real album under its sparkly clean production. One written for the masses but able to resonate with each individual listener.
-
Q MagazineJul 6, 2017Lorde's biggest achievement is retaining her emotional insight into herself and her generation despite her utterly transformed life. [Aug 2017, p.100]
-
Jul 6, 2017Still only 20 years old, Lorde could have been forgiven for floundering under the weight of expectation. Instead she’s reasserted her status as today’s ultimate alt-pop artist with a record that balances the contemporary with the classic in typically immaculate style.
