With his unmistakable blend of funk, soul, and refined pop, Mark Ronson builds a lush soundscape that feels straight out of a smoky ‘70s jazz lounge. It’s the perfect backdrop for RAYE, whose powerful, jazzy vocals glide through the track with elegance and quiet confidence. The result is both nostalgic and fresh—a slow-burning groove that stays with you long after the final horn fades.
RAYE admitted that working with Ronson came with high expectations. Given his celebrated history with Amy Winehouse, she felt the pressure but rose to the challenge, delivering a performance that’s distinctly her own. Critics have hailed the collaboration as “a refreshing piece of modern soul” and “a classy addition to any summer playlist.”
The official music video is a cinematic match to the track’s sultry atmosphere. Shot in smoky hues with moody lighting, it follows the mysterious “Suzanne” through a night soaked in retro glamour and emotional nuance. The visual style leans heavily into noir-inspired aesthetics, with vintage fashion, neon-lit hallways, and intimate glances driving the story. It’s the kind of video that rewards multiple viewings, each time revealing a little more of its story.
