When she accepted the Album of the Year Award for Melodrama the young singer said: “”This one is so important … I put everything I had into this record, I gave it everything, I wasn’t sure what the path was … I think it’s going to be one of the most important things I make,” as reported in the New Zealand Herald.

Speaking to Radio New Zealand after the event, Lorde gushed about the support she has received in her home country, as reported in The Daily Mail.

“Oh man, it’s been amazing, the whole tour has been amazing and it’s so nice to finish it like this,” she said.

“I forget how lucky I am to have the support here – it’s amazing to come home and be greeted with this.”

Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern presented the singer with the People’s Choice Award.
