Royals by Lorde

Heihoooo, happy new year!! I know it's so late but no problem haha. Sudah lama banget nih saya gak ngeblog. Di post saya kali ini kita bakal bahas penyanyi pendatang baru asal Negeri Kiwi alias New Zealand yaitu Lorde. Check this out:

 Nama lengkapnya Ella Maria Lani Yelich-O'Connor yang pada 7 November 2013 lalu genap berusia 17 tahun, hmm masih muda banget ya tapi  sukses meraih perhatian dunia lewat singlenya yang berjudul "Royals" dari album "Pure Heroine" berhasil menembus Billboard Hot 100 di tahun 2013.

Single Royals bercerita tentang remaja yang gak peduli akan hidup mewah, tidak suka party, hidup biasa nan sederhana yang mereka inginkan. Selain Lorde disukai oleh Selena Gomez ternyata Selena sering menyanyikan Royals didalam tournya. Namun, Lorde agak menjaga jarak dengan sesuatu berbau "luxurious". "Saya muak dengan para wanita seperti itu" kata-kata tersebut sepertinya merujuk kepada Selena. Walaupun mendapat tanggapan seperti itu dari Lorde, Selena tetap bijak menanggapinya "Dia tidak menyukaiku tapi aku akan teteap mendukungnya tidak peduli dia menyukaiku atau tidak karena aku pikir dia sedang melakukan hal yang hebat". Waahhh Selena bijak sekali.
 Lorde menjalin hubungan percintaan dengan pria Asia asal negeri Cina bernama James Lowe. Namun sayang, banyak orang yang mengejek mereka, seperti di Twitter banyak yang memposting dengan bernada satir dan terkesan mennghina wajah James. Cinta tidak memandang fisik kan friends?! :). Yuk langsung aja kita intip liriknya:



I've never seen a diamond in the flesh
I cut my teeth on wedding rings in the movies
And I'm not proud of my address,
In a torn-up town, no postcode envy

But every song's like gold teeth, grey goose, trippin' in the bathroom
Blood stains, ball gowns, trashin' the hotel room,
We don't care, we're driving Cadillacs in our dreams.
But everybody's like Cristal, Maybach, diamonds on your timepiece.
Jet planes, islands, tigers on a gold leash.
We don't care, we aren't caught up in your love affair.

And we'll never be royals (royals).
It don't run in our blood,
That kind of luxe just ain't for us.
We crave a different kind of buzz.
Let me be your ruler (ruler),
You can call me queen Bee
And baby I'll rule, I'll rule, I'll rule, I'll rule.
Let me live that fantasy.

[Verse 2]
My friends and I—we've cracked the code.
We count our dollars on the train to the party.
And everyone who knows us knows that we're fine with this,
We didn't come from money.

But every song's like gold teeth, grey goose, trippin' in the bathroom.
Blood stains, ball gowns, trashin' the hotel room,
We don't care, we're driving Cadillacs in our dreams.
But everybody's like Cristal, Maybach, diamonds on your timepiece.
Jet planes, islands, tigers on a gold leash
We don't care, we aren't caught up in your love affair

And we'll never be royals (royals).
It don't run in our blood
That kind of luxe just ain't for us.
We crave a different kind of buzz.
Let me be your ruler (ruler),
You can call me queen Bee
And baby I'll rule, I'll rule, I'll rule, I'll rule.
Let me live that fantasy.

Ooh ooh oh
We're bigger than we ever dreamed,
And I'm in love with being queen.
Ooh ooh oh
Life is great without a care
We aren't caught up in your love affair.

And we'll never be royals (royals).
It don't run in our blood
That kind of luxe just ain't for us.
We crave a different kind of buzz
Let me be your ruler (ruler),
You can call me queen Bee
And baby I'll rule, I'll rule, I'll rule, I'll rule.
Let me live that fantasy.
