Royals sounds like an old-school ringtone
Despite being three albums and one autobiography into her career so far, Lorde previously admitted that she "never expects" to have another hit like 'Royals'.
In fact Lorde is tired of hearing 'Royals', because the melody sounds like an old Nokia ringtone.
She said: "I listen to people covering the song and putting their own spin on it - and I listen to it in every single form except the original one I put out - and I realize that actually it sounds horrible! None of the melodies are cool or good. It's disastrous and it sounds like a 2006 Nokia ringtone!"
