Lorde has been listening to her new album through Apple earphones so she knows what it will sound like for her fans.
The ‘Royal’ hitmaker has shared a picture of the white earpiece on her Twitter and hinted that her follow-up to 2013’s debut ‘Pure Heroine’ is nearly finished.
She captioned the photo: "listen to the record on these every day. wanna hear it exactly how you will (sic)"
Lorde previously teased new music in a heartfelt letter to fans to mark her 20th birthday.
The British singer – who turned 20 on November 7 – has produced "the best lyrics" she’s ever written and is desperate to release her second record.
The lengthy post titled ‘A Note From The Desk Of A Newborn Adult’ shared on her Facebook page begins: "Tomorrow I turn 20, and it’s all I’ve been able to think about for days."
It goes on to reveal: "Writing ‘Pure Heroine’ was my way of enshrining our teenage glory, putting it up in lights forever so that part of me never dies, and this record – well, this one is about what comes next.
I want nothing more than to spill my guts RIGHT NOW about the whole thing – I want you to see the album cover, pore over the lyrics (the best I’ve written in my life), touch the merch, experience the live show. I can hardly stop myself from typing out the name. I just need to keep working a while longer to make it as good as it can be. You’ll have to hold on. The big day is not tomorrow, or even next month realistically, but soon. I know you understand."
Her letter came after a fan took to Instagram earlier this year and moaned about how long it is taking for her to release new music.
The furious star replied: "Give up on me if you want to! I’m an artist, I write a record when I have enough special stories to tell, and it’s all me, every melody every lyric, not some team who just start the machine up every eighteen months like clockwork."
