Billie Eilish dropped a new song and music video (whic she directed) last night at midnight (July 9) for "NDA," off her forthcoming album Happier Than Ever.

The video is set in the dark night, with a car's wheel in focus. It comes to an abrupt stop and we see Billie emerge from a long empty road. Trippy visuals of her head glitching or overlapping each other as she sings, "Got a stalker walkin' up and down the street / Says he's Satan and he'd like to meet."

The best part of the video is Billie's use of multiple cars -- as she sings, "You can't let me go," many cars drive on either side of the 19-year-old zooming by. Only to come back from behind moments later when she sings the same line -- this time, Eilish drops to her hands and knees on the road with an agonized expression.

The cars begin circling the singer quite fast and kick up dust causing a chaotic scene as she belts, "Did I take it too far / Now I know what you are / I saw stars / Think I took it too far / When I sold you my heart / How'd it get so dark? / I saw stars."

Eilish said, "THIS VIDEO WAS SO CRAZY TO SHOOOOOT😭😭 AHHHHHHHHHH" on her Instagram.
