Formidable duo Calvin Harris and Ellie Goulding return with their fourth collaboration, “Free,” after teasing the song in Ushuaïa Ibiza over the weekend.
The incredible synergy between Calvin Harris and Ellie Goulding continues to delight the fans as the dynamic duo is back to unveil their latest joint effort, “Free.” The new tune marks Harris and Goulding’s fourth venture together just 16 months after their last. It follows a history of successful collaboration that spanned over a decade, resulting in 2013’s “I Need Your Love,” 2014’s “Outside,” and their highly acclaimed hit last year, “Miracle.”
Enriched with shimmering synths and an energetic spirit, “Free” is a high-octane house track that offers an exhilarating atmosphere. Ellie Goulding’s angelic vocals offer a pure, ethereal nature to the gem and complement the free-spirited nature of the intricate sound design. Herein lies the brilliance of the collaboration, which cloaks the slight darkness of the track with somber lyrics about love as she sings, “Don’t wanna fall in love, I’m not afraid now. When I’m with you, I’m free.”
Over the past weekend, the singer spontaneously appeared during Calvin Harris’ residency set at Ushuaïa Ibiza, treating the fans to a delightful surprise by delivering another memorable performance alongside him. In the same week, he teased the fans with glimpses of their studio session together, calling it the “making of FREE documentary” on Instagram.
“Free” is yet another liberating summer anthem from Calvin Harris and Ellie Goulding, proving once again that this pair has undeniable chemistry and is in tune with what fans around the planet are craving. We can only hope that these two continue to team up in the future for more hit tracks.
