How the Lorde song sorter works
Ranking a whole discography from memory is hard, so the sorter breaks it into small either-or questions. Each choice is easy, and together they add up to a complete, ordered list of your favorite Lorde songs. Tick only the albums you want, press start, and keep choosing until the list is done.

All 4 studio albums, from Pure Heroine (2013) to Virgin (2025). Remixes, live versions and demos are left out.
