Lorde Gets Weird. This Is Good. (And Some Bonus Weirdness from Puddles the Sad Clown)

You can imagine the grown-ups pressuring Lorde to follow some kind of musical script.  Fortunately, she seems to be somewhat obstinate when it comes to playing by the rules.  I’d love to know how she came to work with Son Lux, a pretty obscure NY-based musical freak (and I say that with the greatest amount of admiration!)  Check out this collaboration.

Meanwhile, Puddles the Sad Clown with the Golden Voice has once again tackled a Lorde song.  Add this to his cover of “Royals.”
