It is the “first major publication in almost four years” in the press release to the new single from Lorde. And yet the track “What was that” naturally blends in to the oeuvre from the 28-year-old New Zealand.
Everything about the music video
The musician has also released a music video for the approximately three and a half minute play. She can be seen through New York City while walking-until she finally reaches the Washington Square Park in the half-darken, where she performs the final of the single release from numerous people live.
In fact, Lorde had previously called her followers with a cryptic message: Called inside the park at a certain time on April 22nd. And at the present time, she then delivered a pop-up appearance to those present. The chaos of the story: unexpectedly, the police unexpectedly intervened, they wanted to end the meeting of Lorde fans prematurely.

Sneak Peak existed weeks ago
You could already listen to a teaser for “what was that” on Tikkok, there Lorde shared a mini cut on April 9, in which the lyrics “Since I was 17 / i gave you everthing / now we wake from a dream / well baby, what was that?” were to be filtered out. The fans then speculated wildly what would come to them.

When does Lorde’s fourth plate come?
It is currently still unclear whether Ella Marija Lani Yelich-O’Connor, as it is called with a bourgeois name, will soon follow a new song. Her still up -to -date third work, Solar Power, dates from 2021. Before that, Melodrama appeared in 2017 and her breakthrough debut Pure Heroine in 2013.
