Round of applause to Miss Ella Yelich-O'Connor. THE WAY I HAVE NEEDED CLOSURE FOR RIBS SINCE 2012!!!! I feel like my cuts and bruises are healing, and like I am certain that I have my own back because if Lorde can have her own back, past and present and future, then of course I can too. And it's like Lorde went out of her way to get someone she looked up to back then (and now) to say to us and her past self that We Will Be Fine, ease into those Strange times and the Sadness, because Euphoria and the Freakin Sun are waiting for us. And then she said for Secrets from a Girl, she took two chords from Ribs and reversed them so she could speak to past her and say "It's going to be okay." PLUS a reddit user (link below) said that Robyn, who is featured in this song, was super popular during Ella's formative years, especially around the time Ribs was written. so in the enhanced version of the album on spotify Lorde says she was listening to Ribs and thinking about who she was way back when she wrote it. Yall, i am going to try to explain how this song has completely shattered me to my core.
