There's always the want-you-back phase, and when that inevitably arises, we now have Haim to turn around a shitty feeling. Lorde seems like the only millennial qualified to sing about the modern teenager. Somehow, she morphs a clichéd theme—daydreaming about hunks—into something that feels fresh for the Internet Age.
