Charts and streaming milestones around Virgin
Lorde’s 2025 album Virgin underpins the entire Ultrasound World Tour. Universal Music’s release communication notes that the album arrived on June 27, 2025 through Universal Music New Zealand and Republic Records, following three singles – What Was That, Man of the Year and Hammer – which were already approaching 200 million streams combined before the album dropped.Virgin release statement
The label also highlighted that What Was That hit number one on Spotify in the United States, number three in the United Kingdom and number five globally at launch, giving Lorde her strongest streaming debut since Royals. In Germany, industry coverage around the album’s arrival pointed out that Virgin re-established her presence in the upper reaches of the Official German Albums Chart, underlining the country’s importance in her current campaign.
How Virgin sounds
Musically, Virgin is framed as a return to a more electronic, beat-forward pop sound after the sun-bleached acoustic textures of 2021’s Solar Power. Universal Music describes the record as a bold evolution, with Lorde co-producing alongside Jim-E Stack and moving between tight drum programming, thick synth bass and stark vocal arrangements that recall the minimalism of Pure Heroine.
The tracklist underlines that mix of vulnerability and directness: songs like Favourite Daughter and Current Affairs sit alongside the sharper pop of Hammer and the reflective If She Could See Me Now. Across its eleven tracks, the album leans into themes of shame, renewal, desire and defiance, making it feel like a deliberate reset that connects her early bedroom-pop aesthetic to the cinematic scale of Melodrama.
What’s next for Lorde
The next officially listed German live date for Lorde is August 31, 2026 at Olympiapark Munich, where she is scheduled to perform at the Superbloom Festival as part of the Ultrasound World Tour.
