"Thunderclouds" is a song by pop music supergroup LSD. It was released on August 9, 2018,[2] by Columbia Records as the third single from LSD's debut studio album of the same name, following "Genius" and "Audio".[3] The song was written by Labrinth, Sia, Diplo, King Henry, and Jr Blender; while being produced by Labrinth, Diplo, and Jr Blender.

"Thunderclouds" was used as the main theme song for the Samsung Galaxy Note 9 promotional campaign, being featured extensively in parts in the company's ads, as well as at the reveal event in New York on August 9, 2018.[4]

The single is the group's most successful song to date.

Music video

The official music video for the song, directed by Ernest Desumbila, was released on 30 August 2018.[5] Billboard's review called the video "super trippy" and described it as follows: "The group travels across pink and purple skies inside a flying red car piloted by Diplo and housing a living Sia puppet. Labrinth flies on his own personal cloud - a very common theme taken from Chinese mythology - while a mysterious candy-haired girl, played by Maddie Ziegler, dances on top of the car with a Sia-inspired hair-do. The party encounters thunderstorms along the way. … With the power of love, the group eventually finds their way out of the storm and returns to the dazzling pink-clouded skies."[6]
