Singer Katy Perry released her first solo track in two years early Friday, the upbeat "Never Really Over," Rolling Stone reported.
The video shows Perry, 34, getting acupuncture, doing yoga, dancing in an open field and cavorting with hippies dressed in festival-like clothing, the magazine reported.
"Two years and just like that / My heart still takes me back," Perry sings. "It's never really over."
The video, directed by Philippa Price, begins with Perry joining a psychedelic commune that has been transformed into a health and wellness retreat, Entertainment Tonight reported.
Perry previewed the video Wednesday night during a fan event at YouTube Space Los Angeles, followed by a question-and-answer session, according to Entertainment Tonight.

"This time, or this video, or things that I'm touching on is kind of a time like age of Aquarius, new age, esoteric, California, healing, hippie, medicinal, plant-based… all those keywords," Perry told the audience. "There are many things like that, and honestly, these are the words that I've come to live by and incorporate these types of things and way of life in the past few years. So, I just wanted to put that in my music and my video."
During the discussion, Perry told moderator Kyle Hanagami about her awkwardness as a dancer, Rolling Stone reported.
“I’m not really a ballet kind of girl,” Perry said. “I’m more of a ‘pass the burrata’ girl.”
