Good morning to Harry Styles<\/a><\/strong> and Harry Styles only.<\/p>\n

The rockstar released new music<\/a> for the first time in two years on Friday, #blessing the world with “Lights Up.” Along with the new song, the former One Direction<\/a><\/strong> boy bander also dropped a steamy music video, which finds him in a sea of sensual, dancing people who just can’t take their hands off each other. <\/p>\n

“All the lights couldn’t put out the dark \/ Runnin’ through my heart,” the shirtless and oiled up singer belts out. “Lights up and they know who you are \/ Know who you are \/ Do you know who you are?”<\/p>\n

The lyrics, co-written by Styles, Kid Harpoon <\/strong>and Tyler Johnson<\/strong>, seem to be all about questioning life as you work toward self-discovery. “What do you mean?” he croons. “I’m sorry by the way, I’m never coming around. It’d be so sweet if things just stayed the same.”<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

Throughout the three-minute clip\u2014which was filmed in Mexico\u2014Styles can be seen brooding and having an emotional struggle in a room alone. Elsewhere, he’s standing in a body of water, floating midair and riding on the back of a motorcycle. As he sings, “I’m never coming back down.”<\/p>\n

In an impressive feat, the music video pulled in nearly 2.6 million views in its first six hours. Yup, Harry Styles is back, and the world is here for it.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

Ahead of the song’s release, he commemorated World Mental Health Day<\/a> with a compliment-generator which, unbeknownst to his fans at the time, was named after a “Lights Up” song lyric.<\/p>\n

And, of course, “Lights Up” lives up to its promise. Back in August, Styles told Rolling Stone<\/em> that his new music would be “all about having sex and feeling sad<\/a>.”<\/p>\n

And we definitely get those vibes. See for yourself in the video above!<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n
