Zedd, Elley Duhé – Happy Now

We always knew Zedd and Elley Duhé’s summer single “Happy Now” was hiding a frown, but we never could have foreseen how dark the music video would go.

The song’s upbeat rhythm and bright, bouncing synth melodies counterbalances what is at its core a bitter tale of love lost.

Tensions rise as one woman finds her lover in the arms of another, a move that ultimately comes with deadly consequences.
