"Lovers on the Sun"
Song

"Lovers on the Sun" is a song by French music producer David Guetta, featuring vocals by American singer-songwriter Sam Martin.[1] It was released as a digital download on 30 June 2014. The song was written by Guetta, Sam Martin, Frédéric Riesterer, Giorgio Tuinfort, Jason Evigan, Michael Einziger, and Avicii. It was produced by Guetta, Avicii, Riesterer, and Tuinfort, with additional production from Italian house production team Daddy's Groove.[2] This track has since crowned the singles chart in Austria, Finland and Germany and reached top 40 on most of the countries where the track has been charted.

Mallory Knox covered the song on BBC Radio 1's Live Lounge.[3]

Background

This song and other new songs of his are inspired by spaghetti western film scores.[1]

Music video

A lyric video was produced for the song with a Wild West theme.[4] An accompanying music video was released on 12 August 2014 again with a Wild West theme.[5] It was directed by Marc Klasfeld[6] and stars Ray Liotta who portrays a villain. Idolator said the video was "refreshing" and "a special effects-filled extravaganza".[7]

Critical reception

4Music celebrated the song's "double DJ power" (Guetta and Avicii, who co-wrote and co-produced the track) and suggested that it "must mean this'll be a big hit".[4]
