Lorde has released her new song, “What Was That,” the first single from her upcoming fourth studio album.

Just over two weeks since Lorde released a 15-second snippet of what appeared to be a new song, the singer dropped the full version on April 24 — her new single titled "What Was That." The music video for the track shows Lorde walking around New York City, culminating in clips filmed from her appearance in Washington Square Park on Tuesday evening.

Lorde danced above the crowd as fans sang along. In a white button-down with a bikini top underneath and baggy jeans, the singer punched the air and swayed as listeners lifted their phones to capture the moment, flashes lighting up the darkened park.

The superstar confirmed on social media the song will drop at Midnight April 24, marking the rollout for her first album since 2021.

Lorde debuted an unreleased track in New York City's Washington Square Park after an earlier gathering was shut down by the NYPD on Tuesday (April 22) evening. According to RollingStone, the "Ribs" icon texted fans (via Instagram) to meet her in the park at 7:00 p.
