Clean Bandit Preview Julia Michaels' Collab 'I Miss You'

The 'Rather Be' hitmakers team up with the pop mastermind for a new banger...

It sounds like Clean Bandit have another major hit on their hands with their next A-list collaboration.

'I Miss You' is the title of their brand new single with singer Julia Michaels, which sounds just as sublime as their recent singles in the short clip the group have posted on their social media.

With Michaels' voice layered up into a sweet harmony, she sings the melody over an emotional piano piece that promises a classically euphoric Clean Bandit beat drop.

I've been hearing symphonies
Before all I heard was silence
A rhapsody for you and me
And every melody is timeless
Life was stringin' me along
Then you came and you cut me loose
Was solo singin' on my own
Now I can't find the key without you

And now your song is on repeat
And I'm dancin' on to your heartbeat
And when you're gone, I feel incomplete
So, if you want the truth

I just wanna be part of your symphony
Will you hold me tight and not let go?
Symphony
Like a love song on the radio
Will you hold me tight and not let go?

I'm sorry if it's all too much (Oh-oh)
Every day you're here, I'm healin' (Oh-oh)
And I was runnin' out of luck (Oh-oh)
I never thought I'd find this feeling (Oh-oh)

'Cause I've been hearing symphonies
Before all I heard was silence (Oh-oh)
A rhapsody for you and me (Rhapsody for you and me)
And every melody is timeless

And now your song is on repeat
And I'm dancin' on to your heartbeat
And when you're gone, I feel incomplete
So if you want the truth

I just wanna be part of your symphony
Will you hold me tight and not let go?
Symphony
Like a love song on the radio
Will you hold me tight and not let go?

Ah ah, ah
Ah-ah-ah, ah, ah, ah
Ah ah, ah
Ah-ah-ah, ah, ah, ah

And now your song is on repeat
And I'm dancin' on to your heartbeat
And when you're gone, I feel incomplete
So if you want the truth
Oh-oh

I just wanna be part of your symphony
Will you hold me tight and not let go?
Symphony
Like a love song on the radio (Oh)
Symphony
Will you hold me tight and not let go? (No, no, no, no)

Symphony
Like a love song on the radio
Will you hold me tight and not let go?

SERIOUSLY, WE ARE NOT READY! This song sounds amazing.

Any song that combines Clean Bandit's luscious pop production with the songwriting and vocal talents of thee Julia Michaels is bound to be incredible.

The 'Issues' singer revealed that she "wrote this one ['I Miss You'] at the height of an emotional roller coaster. When I was stuck at the top, this flew out of me. Can't wait for you guys to hear it."

'I Miss You' follows the band's collaboration with Marina and the Diamonds, and could very easily become their third UK Number 1 single of 2017 after 'Rockabye' and 'Symphony'.

It's Julia's second high-profile collaboration of the year as she is featured on Maroon 5's latest single 'Help Me Out'.

Can October 27th come quicker, please?!

View the lyrics

It's electric how my lipstick
Makes its own way right into your kiss and
It's pathetic how we both get kind of fucked up
Hangin' on each other

We're ahead now
Should we slow down?
Should we slow down now?

'Cause I'm getting some kind of shake without you

Uh huh
I think you're movin' in too close
But I think that it's my body wantin' it the most, like

Uh huh
I don't know what it is I feel
But I know it's my emotions goin' in for the kill, like

Uh huh (uh huh)
Uh huh (uh huh)
But I know it's my emotions goin' in for the kill

It's electric how symmetric
We both get when you lay beside me
It's phonetic how our mouths grip
Almost too tight to the words we're sayin'

We're in deep now
Should we slow down?
Should we slow down now?

'Cause I'm gettin' some kind of shake without you

Uh huh
I think you're movin' in too close
But I think that it's my body wantin' it the most, like

Uh huh
I don't know what it is I feel
But I know it's my emotions goin' in for the kill, like

Uh huh (uh huh)
Uh huh (uh huh)
But I know it's my emotions goin' in for the kill, like

Uh huh (uh huh)
Uh huh (uh huh)
But I know it's my emotions goin' in for the kill

Goin' in for the kill
Goin' in for the kill

It's rare when the panic in my mind feels so damn good
Woo!

Uh huh
I think you're movin' in too close
But I think that it's my body wantin' it the most, like

Uh huh
I don't know what it is I feel
But I know it's my emotions goin' in for the kill, like

Uh huh (uh huh)
Uh huh (uh huh)
But I know it's my emotions goin' in for the kill, like

Uh huh (uh huh)
Uh huh (uh huh)
But I know it's my emotions goin' in for the kill

Goin' in for the kill
Goin' in for the kill

Uh huh
