Charlie Puth Releases Long-Teased Single 'Light Switch'

Charlie Puth has shared a new single titled "Light Switch," which he had been teasing for months prior on TikTok.

Produced by Puth and co-written with longtime collaborator JKash and Jake Torrey, the upbeat pop song with a pulsating beat sees Puth crooning about how his lover turns him on "like a light switch."

Since September 2021, Puth has been documenting the process of creating the song on TikTok.

“On the songwriting level, it was really cool to share this song with the fans while I made it,” the singer noted in a statement, “So they felt like they were involved at the very beginning of the song, like they almost wrote it with me.”

“Light Switch” is the first track shared from Charlie, which is due for release later this year via Atlantic Records. The music video for the song has also just been released.

Puth's upcoming LP marks the singer’s first full-length effort since his Grammy-nominated project Voicenotes in 2018. According to Rolling Stone, the 30-year-old has noted Charlie is his most personal album to date. “I’ve never had a chance to put out music that is truly me and every song on this album is my personality with some melody attached to it,” he said.

Most recently, Puth appeared on Elton John's The Lockdown Sessions, on the track “After All.”
