Lorde Unveils New Single "Perfect Places"

Following her highly anticipated return with Green Light, and then Liability, Lorde today unveiled a brand new song called Perfect Places. The song is quite different from the previous singles and the sound is reminiscent of her Pure Heroine era. Here Lorde sings about the extent people go in order to feel more alive. Check it out below! 



Speaking about the track Lorde said,
today, PERFECT PLACES is out in the world. this is a special one. i was living in new york during summer last year, writing melodrama - i'd ride across the brooklyn bridge every day, or sit on the subway uptown in the heat, then go back home to new zealand winter for a week at a time to party with my friends. my life was like a weird little etch-a-sketch i kept scribbling on and resetting. and all last summer, i couldn't shake the feeling that everyone i knew or saw was searching for something - trying to transcend the news and the screaming pavements, drinking that one drink hoping it'd get them someplace higher. this song comes from that endless cycle of evenings and the violent heat of the summer. it took us a very long time to get right, from an aching piano demo to where is it now. it's close to my heart. i hope you like it.

Perfect Places is taken from her upcoming album, Melodrama, set to arrive on June 16th!
