David Guetta & Anne-Marie team up with Clean Bandit as they return to music with ‘Cry Baby’: Listen

David Guetta and Anne-Marie are back to team up with British pop trio Clean Bandit as they return to music with their newest single, ‘Cry Baby.’

In an interesting and fun stylistic matchup, one of the most popular DJs in the world, David Guetta, and superstar vocalist Anne-Marie are welcoming back 8-time Brit-nominated trio Clean Bandit as they give the world their newest track, ‘Cry Baby.’ This marks the second collaboration between Anne-Marie and Clean Bandit, and what better way to top the previous one than to add one of the most successful DJs in dance music, David Guetta.

Four years in the making, this single would not have happened without Anne-Marie, who introduced Guetta and Clean Bandit years ago. Guetta has stated that he has been a fan of the British trio for years because of their “crazy sound,” and when this song was presented to him, he knew it was time to work together.“It’s hard to express in words how much ‘Cry Baby’ means to me. It came out delicate, playful and soft, despite the song’s deep pain. It still makes me cry sometimes when I listen to it, 4 years on from when we started it. I’m so grateful it is finally out in the world.”

‘Cry Baby’ has radio hit written all over it and is one of the catchiest songs released this year. The track has a contrast as it features an upbeat personality that feels great during the last moments of this summer but describes a story of deep pain. It has that classic Clean Bandit identity all over it. With gorgeous strings and a whistle melody at the beginning, ‘Cry Baby’ will instantly make you smile. The song overall has a beautiful and wholesome tone that seems poised to become one of the favorite tracks of the last half of 2024.

Although it took four years for this collaboration to finally see the light of day, this feels like the perfect time for all three artists. ‘Cry Baby’ is a song that you can forget about everything and just have fun listening to, and in the end, that is what really counts.
