On October 26, Harry Styles finally released the hotly-awaited music video for "Golden", the first track on his album "Fine Line".
Twitter first blew up when Styles' fictional island, Eroda, tweeted "☀️", prompting the hashtag #Golden☀️ to trend for multiple days. Fans then began to speculate when the music video would drop. Some investigated the potential release date by cross referencing with a previous music video; the music video for "Watermelon Sugar" was released five days after Eroda tweeted "🍉", which held true for "Golden".
Others lamented the little-to-no information given by Styles' team.

The day before the video was released, Harry Styles HQ posted a teaser clip of the music video on Instagram and Twitter with the release date below the name of the song.
Naturally, this prompted the Twitter hashtag #WHATTIME to trend, as fans desperately plead for a crumb of information about when the video would drop.
Finally, the wait was over. The "Golden" music video was released at 9AM MST on Youtube, with thousands of fans waiting for the premiere so they could be some of the first to see Styles grace their computer or phone screen.
The video itself features Styles on the Italian Amalfi Coast running in a loose shirt, driving a convertible, swimming in the crystal clear water and walking in the street in a striking teal suit and sparkly white gloves.
In many fans' favorite scene (I'm fans), Styles lays on the hood of a car with a family inside, singing the end of the song to them.
*sigh*
