One way to get a better idea about a person is to take a closer look at their lyrics. Here is a discussion about one of Lorde’s songs that I really like.
[Outro]
We’re on each other’s team
And you know we’re on each other’s team
We’re on each other’s team
We’re on each other’s team
And you know and you know and you know
COMMENTARY FROM THIS SAME WEBSITE:
Things got wild at the party. She’s pinning it on some of her guests.
Inferring from previous interviews, this might be another “inspired by a true story” moment from the life of Lorde.
Possible allusion to “the ground beneath their feet/the hot garbage and concrete” on Vampire Weekend’s “Mansard Roof,” which is similar thematically. The “Mansard Roof” lyric is probably a reference to Salman Rushdie’s The Ground Beneath Her Feet, which is based on Freddie Mercury of Queen. (Around the time he was writing the album, Ezra Koenig was taking Gaya Spivak’s postcolonial literary theory classes very seriously.) See, Queen and fame! LORDE has stated her allegiance to Ezra Koenig songwriting on Tumblr, but I find it equally plausible that she’s read Rushdie. Or just picked up the idiom out of the air.
