Believe it or not, Lorde’s last (and first) album Pure Heroine was released way back in 2013.
She’s been involved in other musical projects since then, but finally her proper second album – titled Melodrama – is due for release this year.
After a solid week of teasing, Lorde finally released the first single from that album, and ‘Green Light’ does not disappoint.
Co-written and co-produced with Jack Antonoff (who previously worked with Taylor Swift, Carly Rae Jepsen and Tegan & Sara), the heartbreak anthem is destined to have dancefloors full for the next few weeks.
