Lorde made her triumphant return last week with her comeback single “Green Light.” It served as the first song to arrive from her upcoming Melodrama album. Lorde is back again this week to share her stunning new ballad “Liability.” A piano driven song about heartbreak and centers around fame and friendships. Lorde shared that the inspiration behind the song was hearing Rihanna’s “Higher.” This is what she had to say:
I was in this cab alone listening to ‘Higher’ by Rihanna because ANTI had just come out. And I had a little cry and I was just like, ‘It’s always going to be this way, at some point with everyone it’s going to be this way.’ But the song kind of ended up turning into a bit of a protective talisman for me. I was like, you know what, I’m always gonna have myself so I have to really nurture this relationship and feel good about hanging out with myself and loving myself.
Lorde’s new album Meloadrama is due out on June 16th.
