Lorde hasn’t released a single since 2014’s “Yellow Flicker Flame,” and we were all pretty much on the edge of our seats waiting for “Green Light” to finally drop today. After being teased with epically short clips on Twitter and a custom website over the past two days, “Green Light” is now available in full and it’s a great return to form.
Although it lacks some of the traditional house elements, influences of EDM at 128-130ish BPM can clearly be heard in the bridge before the chorus, and even in the main chorus thanks to a steady four on the floor kick. Regardless of classification, there’s no doubt that Lorde’s clout and the quality of the track will make this an instant radio hit.
