So I've listened to the album once and I like it, but it's not incredible given the hype. I can see why "Royals," "Tennis Court" and "Team" have been the singles though thus far, definitely my favorite 3 tracks.

I immersed myself in this album and I have to say was shocked and blown away by her. I really loved Royal, Tennis Court, Team, 400 Lux & Glory Gore( the only two songs i didn't care for is Ribs and to a lesser degree Buzzcut season) The biggest pros for me were vocals and lyrics and attitude, the only negative is she has to be careful to not fall into the trap of having the same type of production over and over. "Pure Heroine" is now my second favorite album of 2013.

Every time a website makes a deal over something she says about another music artist, I like this girl less and less. She can have her opinions, but she can also have some tact too. Yeah, David Guetta might be gross but I wouldn't say that to a journalist.

"Everybody Wants to Rule the World" is one my favorite 80s songs. I absolutely love Lorde's spin on it. She completely turned it into something all her own. Reminds me of when Emily Browning did a cover of "Sweet Dreams (Are Made of This)" for Sucker Punch.

Much better than Arthur! But didn't he release his debut album in 2011 or so? Edit: oh, I just figured out what this was about; I thought he was saying Ed and James also should've been nominated but weren't, like Lorde, not about the eligiblity being questionable - really should've read through the noms before. Oops!
