Featuring aerial shots of a crop circle and a beach formation spelling out the letters “SP”
Lorde has shared a new teaser video for her album less than a week since the release of her comeback single, ‘Solar power’.
The clip, titled “Every perfect summer’s gotta take its flight”, features wide aerial shots of a crop circle and a beach formation that both spell out the letters “SP” – the initials of ‘Solar Power’, which is also the title of her next album.
The single, which features backup vocals from Phoebe Bridgers and Clairo, was released last Thursday (June 10). NME’s five-star review hails it as a “gorgeous, sun-kissed rebirth”.
In an interview with Apple Music 1’s Zane Lowe, Lorde discussed the similarities between ‘Solar Power’ and Primal Scream’s ‘Loaded’.
“I had never heard Primal Scream in my life. I’d been told to check them out,” she said. “I wrote the song on the piano and then we realised it sounds a lot like ‘Loaded’. It’s just one of those crazy things that they just were the spiritual forebears of the song.”
