Collaborations don’t come much bigger than PNAU and Khalid’s heavyweight meet-up for their brand new single ‘The Hard Way’. The two artists share a combined total of over 70 million monthly listeners at Spotify, with a host of international #1 smashes to their credit, with their biggest moments including PNAU’s unmissable Elton John / Dua Lipa collab ‘Cold Heart’ and Khalid’s ‘lovely’ alongside Billie Eilish.
‘The Hard Way’ instantly lives up to its billing. It’s big scale contemporary pop at its finest, with PNAU’s sublime synthpop providing the towering melodies and supremely confident hook that allows Khalid’s starry vocal majesty to shine. The two artists really lean into each other’s vibe to establish a depth of feeling, with Khalid’s lovelorn lyricism and sentimental emotions complemented by PNAU’s ability to evoke nostalgic ‘80s sonic elements within a modernistic production.
PNAU’s Nick Littlemore says, "We are so very excited to share this with you. Working with Khalid has been an absolute dream, we hope this song shall live in your hearts like it does ours. Big love, PNAU.“
Khalid adds, “It's just awesome, it's feel-good but then the lyrics have that melancholy, bittersweet thing about them. It's that juxtaposition, that the lyrics are heartbreakingly sad but if you listen to the song you can't help but smile. Those are my favourite songs, the ones that contradict. Just waiting for the world to hear it, they're going to attach to it and just love it..”

Just hearing this for the first time today. Talk about a year late. I have and love both of these artists individually. Can't believe I didn't know this existed until today. Glad it's in my life now. Love. ❤❤❤

Rick Astley vibes

[@suburbia42]

You've got it right. That's it! wonderful

[@marcopuppetto5049]

This song is a mix of wham and rick astley😂. Lovely this song. The sounds make me feel in the 80s

[@indiexninja]

Sounds like Never Be the Same by Christopher Cross :) that came out in 1979 lol
Someone who studied music please tell me if these songs have similar keys/chords?

[@lila1933]

To jedna z tych piosenek które wpadają w ucho po pierwszym przesłuchaniu 😊❤

[@sadyfunny_boy5518]

exactly, this melody sounds like a song from heaven

[@leopardo_8]

So beautiful ❤🇵🇸

[@IzabelaMiksa]

Dokładnie tak, zakochałam się w tej piosence jak tylko ją usłyszałam ❤

[@VWMAC]

Ja też! Pozdrawiam @@IzabelaMiksa

[@kenlagen2805]

Kawałek o brzmieniu z lat 80-90. Cudowne lata❤ a teraz jestem na wakacjach i czuję że to będzie (mój) przebój 2023 👍👍👍👍👍

[@pioterpolskosci3902]

A ta piosenka jest inspirowana jakąś inną czy nie?

[@francescopaolociampone]

This song means the world to me. I think its something new and special and I hope you guys feel it the way I do❤

[@michaeljordan4358]

It’s so good , I wish they could make more music like this these days . Has the 80’s vibe.

[@ankainhetpanhuis9239]

Youre abselutely right it haves the 80's vibe!!

[@rdzdoodles8592]

I think this is what we are seeing now. The trends are experiencing a cycle because once something makes it to the mainstream then it is good to freshen things up and get back to something that used to be popular - remind people why it was so!

[@samuels997]

you should also listen to Weeknd songs if you love 80s vibe...

[@SunVibez13]

Listen to some actual 80s pop music!! Too good

[@CIREDESIGN321]

theres a whole decade of real 80s music...why do you need more of it these days? Its never going to be as good as it was, just repurposed.

[@fabrilarco]

This song reminds me of someone I don't talk to anymore. We used to like the same type of music. I hope he's happy now❤!

[@bestman8705]

[@mariadevilliers4863]

I've listened to this song on repeat....and repeat....and repeat. Took me back to the 80s. Such an innocent era of time.

You have no idea how hard it is for me to find this song after I heard some parts of it while I am in a fastfood restaurant! THE SATISFACTION!

rocznik 74 pozdrawia!

[@seba_5791]

Rocznik 75 w kolejce 🎉

[@VRCommy]

I absolutely love this song, and have it on non stop repeat 🥰🙏🏼
I just wish the lyrics made a little more sense.
“Someone to wipe away the stain, under the rain”
Stains don’t wipe away. That’s why they’re called stains.
I would’ve gone with “wash away the pain, under the rain”
Idk feels more flowy and makes more sense to me 🤷🏼‍♂️
Still an absolute cracker of a track tho 🔥🔥🔥🥰

[@NataliaWica]

Jest super piękna piosenka odrazu mi wpadała w ucho ciągłe jej słucham

[@element372]

AAAAAHHHHHHH!!!!! CAN'T STOP LISTENING IT!!!! I LOOOOOOOVE IT

Last Christmas
I gave you my heart
But the very next day
You gave it away
This year
To save me from tears
I’ll give it to someone special

[@DjFarmer141288]

Fajna nutka :) taka z klimatem :) nie to co inne jednorazówki wkurzające...

[@idiworld]

La mélodie est magique, tout est parfait, ça ramène aux souvenirs d'espoir, d'insouciance et de joie des années 80.
Même si les paroles son tristes et nous rendent nostalgique et un peu mélancolique, le refrain est très entrainant.
J'adore cette chanson, je peux l'écouter en boucle !

[@BozenaSwitala]

C'est ça la musique ! Cette chanson resemble à un coup de foudre en amour. Dès les premières notes, tu rentres dans une autre dimension. C'est pourquoi je n'écoute pas n'importe quelle chanson. Si une chanson ne me fait pas vibrer, je ne l'écoute jamais. ❤
