Lorde's BFF Taylor Swift was apparently the first person to hear her new Hunger Games: Mockingjay - Part 1 song "Yellow Flicker Beat," according to a new photo the "Royals" singer posted to Instagram. The photo is a regrammed screenshot of a photo Swift had posted earlier of her handwritten lyrics from the single. In the caption, Lorde gushed about having Swift as a friend and even plugged Swift's upcoming record, 1989.
"This girl was the first person i played yellow flicker beat to, and she was instantly obsessed with it/would make me play it to our other friends in her kitchen like a proud mom," Lorde wrote. "In return i make her put on my favourite jams from her new record and flail around wildly/smile like a crazy person. it's the coolest thing in the world having friends who make incredible music AND having them cheering you on when it's time for your own to be released. so pumped for them to hear 1989. #iheartswift."
That's the sort of sisterhood that has been missing in pop music. Maybe soon we can stop pinning women against each other and all just get along.
Fingers crossed we'll see a collaboration between the two "friends who make incredible music" one day.
