Lorde has unveiled huge new single "Perfect Places", another massive taste of upcoming second record Melodrama.
"Perfect Places" follows lead single "Green Light" and piano-led ballad "Liability", and was made with frequent collaborator Jack Antonoff (aka Bleachers).
Lorde's debut album Pure Heroine was released in 2013. Despite not releasing an album for a while, Lorde's certainly kept busy - she paid tribute to David Bowie at last year's BRIT Awards, has worked with Broods and Disclosure, and curated the soundtrack for The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 1.
Melodrama is out 16 June via Universal. Pre-order now.
