Does anyone have a source for the length of tracks in the Deluxe edition of the album?[edit]

Tried to find one for "Helen of Troy" and "Hold No Grudge" but couldn't, even though they're listed at 5:47 and 10:03 minutes here respectively. REEC1394 (talk) 20:48, 19 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@REEC1394: I can't find a source either. I'll remove the information. Thanks! D🐶ggy54321 ^{(let's chat!)} 23:02, 19 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Prod. column[edit]

@LivelyRatification: Prod column is still needed although there are repeated items. Only notes look strange :( -- BrandNew Jim Zhang (talk) 04:20, 20 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Don't really mind either way - we have no writer's column for Melodrama (Lorde album), through granted, there's only two songs with variations, whereas this has four. --LivelyRatification (talk) 04:23, 20 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@BrandNew Jim Zhang and LivelyRatification: I removed the producer column because, at the time, only 25% of the track listing (3 songs) had variations. But, I saw that there was also a variation for a fourth track, so I added it in, making it 33% (4 songs) that had a variation, which is a lot. I didn't think of reverting my initial edit to remove the producer column, so thank you both for doing that. Thanks! D🐶ggy54321 ^{(let's chat!)} 15:07, 20 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Semi-protected edit request on 20 August 2021[edit]

Under “critical reception,” please add: In a positive review for Paste Magazine, Matt Mitchell wrote “There isn’t a running theme of despair like there was on Melodrama, but there doesn’t need to be. The elegance of Solar Power is in its warmth, how you can put it on and not pay much attention to its details, and still catch yourself hitting replay.”

Not done for now: please establish a consensus for this alteration before using the {{edit semi-protected}} template. The quote is too long, and the section is already well developed. Is there any particular reason we need more quotes from critics in an already five paragraph long section with almost 600 words? ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 19:31, 20 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Songwriting credits[edit]

Please check ASCAP Repertory or APRA AMCOS search for song-writing credits before editing. This takes a few seconds to check. e.g. for "Hold no Grudge" we can use:
https://www.apraamcos.co.nz/search?works=true&title=Hold%20no%20Grudge&writer=&performer=Lorde

This ASCAP Repertory search might also be useful to find the songs where James Ryan Ho (Malay), is listed as a writer on songs where Lorde is listed as a performer. --Xagent86 (Talk | contribs) 06:44, 11 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
