Grammy-winning singer Olivia Rodrigo has opened up about how she was inspired by Lorde‘s debut album Pure Heroine.

Rodrigo made the remarks during a roundtable for The Hollywood Reporter, which also featured Billie Eiish, Dua Lipa, Cynthia Erivo, Julia Michaels, and Jon Batiste.

“I love that record so much,” Rodrigo said of Pure Heroine. “I remember listening to it as I first started writing songs and being blown away by her lyrics about being a teenager living in the suburbs.”

“I just remember never hearing my life be put into a song like that, where it just made being young and doing these seemingly unimportant things feel so sacred and beautiful,” she added. “That album’s one of my favorites and she still inspires me a lot to this day.”

Pure Heroine is the debut studio album by New Zealand singer-songwriter Lorde. It was released on September 27, 2013, by Universal, Lava, and Republic Records.

Pure Heroine received generally positive reviews from music critics, many of whom praised its songwriting, production, and Lorde’s vocal performance.
