Ava Max Finally Unleashes The Fan-Favorite Anthem 'Salt'

Ava Max is ending her breakout year with a sprinkle of "Salt."


On Thursday (December 12), the pop star celebrated the official launch of the fan-favorite track, releasing it on all streaming platforms for the initial time. Max first dropped the effervescent "Salt" on YouTube and SoundCloud in 2018, and its dance-pop blissfulness still holds up today, as she vows not to cry because she's looking "way also good tonight."


"I got my thigh-highs on, feel like Wonder Woman / That's any time as soon as you want all in, yet I'm not your woman," she sings with irresistible bite. And she's not done rubbing, uh, salt in the wound just yet: any time my lipstick pops and I feel like Monroe / That's while you want me most."


Could Max pull a Lizzo and score an old-new hit with "Salt"? We'll visualize, however in any case, having this song out in the world is a sweet treat for O.G. Avatars and new fans alike.


The release of "Salt" comes right after Max's recent videos for the goth-glam "Freaking Me Out" and the high-flying "Torn." Up next, she's apparently prepared to "drop a bunch of music in 2020," so it looks like her debut album is finally on the way.
