This collaboration between Niall and Anne Marie has been teased for ages, and it’s finally here. I simply can’t stop listening to “Our Song”. If you’ve been looking for the ultimate ear worm, you can stop your search and read about this new single, released on May 21!

With the world on lockdown, Niall and Anne Marie decided that now would be a perfect time to work on a track together since there were no excuses not to. Two minutes and 43 seconds of pure musical magic, “Our Song” has a total pop feel full of gorgeously blended vocals from Niall and Anne Marie. Niall starts off the track, he’s single and no longer thinking about his ex lover; it’s just him alone in his bed, and he comes to the conclusion things are better like this. Of course, the inevitable happens, and his ex sneaks into his head again, but what causes the thought of her is hearing ‘their song’ on the radio. 

Anne Marie joins Niall on the chorus, their voices fitting together perfectly as they sing “Just when I think you’re gone, hear our song on the radio/ Just like that, takes me back to the places we used to go”. Anne Marie has similar thoughts to Mr. Horan; she’s been waking up alone, and hasn’t thought of her ex for days. We’re thrown back into the chorus, and every single time I listen to the chorus I think to myself that I really haven’t heard a collab as strong as this one in a while. 

You can watch the video below, where the duo look all sorts of glamorous and gorgeous as they steal jewelry and drive a getaway car. Let me know your thoughts in the comments, and happy Sunday!
