World Premiere! Lorde - "Green Light": Full Audio + Review
Was someone fearing a leak?
Against all odds, Lorde premiered her new single “Green Light” a little in advance (a whole day, actually). The Jack Antonoff production was set for global premiere tomorrow, March 3rd (Thursday midnight, NYC), but New Zealand-born singer-songwriter Lorde surprised everybody by premiering the full music video for “Green Light” on YouTube and releasing the single on iTunes and Spotify a little over 9 hours before the original schedule. Rumor has it a bad person had obtained a copy of the song and was planning on leaking it. Lorde didn’t want her much-hyped single release to be ruined so she decided to push the schedule up. So she still wins!
***UPDATE***: Just announced - Lorde's 2nd album "Melodrama" out June 15th!
“Green Light” is an anthemic song filled with typical quirky Lorde lyrics. The verses are great build-ups for the explosions that take place in the choruses.
i am so proud of this song. it's very different, and kinda unexpected. it's complex and funny and sad and joyous and it'll make you DANCE
