【Watch Private Video Magazine 7】

Lorde as a woman scorned is Watch Private Video Magazine 7furious, yes, but thriving.

After an appropriate dose of mystery, Lorde dropped her new single, "Green Light," Thursday, the first off her album, Melodrama.

"She things you love the beach, but you're a damn liar," she sneers. In the video, she dances around town shaking her legendary head of hair under lights of varying colors.

"I realized this is that drunk girl at the party dancing around crying about her ex-boyfriend who everyone thinks is a mess," Lorde told Zane Lowe when she premiered the song on his Beats 1 radio show on Apple Music. "That’s her tonight and tomorrow she starts to rebuild. And that’s the song for me."

Lorde told Lowe that writing "Green Light" helped her piece together Melodrama.

"'I was like “oh sh*t, this is it.' This was kinda the first thing that we really… all of a sudden everything else we’d written for the record started to make sense," she explained. "What a feeling, what a bloody feeling. It was amazing. The production of that one starts to inform the rest of them and it all sort of comes together."

The video, directed by Grant Singer, features a cameo from her producer, Jack Antonoff, playing piano in the background.

Before the video's release, Lorde left some clues in her native Auckland.
