It was released on 22 March 1999 and debuted at number three on the UK Singles Chart, which became its peak position. It was not a hit in mainland Europe, but it became one of Billie's highest-charting songs in Australia and New Zealand, reaching number six in the former country and number five in the latter. In Australia, it was the 48th-best-selling song of 1999.\nIn January 2007, the song was championed by Radio 1 DJ Chris Moyles as part of an experiment to test out the new UK Singles Chart rules that came into effect that month, which prompted the song to reach number 17 on the UK Singles Chart on 21 January 2007.\n\nMusic video\nThe video, which uses the shorter radio edit version in lieu of the full album version, was directed by Katie Bell and features Billie in a computer-animated background.\n\nTrack listings\nCredits and personnel\nCredits are lifted from the Honey to the B album booklet.Studios\n\nRecorded at Ridge Farm (Surrey, England) and Marcus Studios (London, England)\nMixed at Metropolis Studios (London, England)Personnel\n\nCharts\nCertifications\nRelease history\nPlay version\nIn June 2003, Swedish girl group Play covered the song on their third album Replay.

The song features (and was written and produced by) Scottish DJ Calvin Harris, whose 2012 album 18 Months also includes the track. \"We Found Love\" premiered on September 22, 2011, on the Capital FM radio station in the United Kingdom, and was made available to download on the same day as the lead single from Talk That Talk. \"We Found Love\" is an uptempo electro house song, with elements of dance-pop, techno and Europop. The song's lyrics speak of a couple who \"found love in a hopeless place\".The song was a major worldwide success. It topped the US Billboard Hot 100 for ten non-consecutive weeks, becoming the longest running number-one single of 2011. The single also surpassed \"Umbrella\" and became Rihanna's longest running number one single. It was the singer's eleventh song to top the Hot 100, placing her in third place among female recording artists amassing the most number one singles. Outside of the United States, \"We Found Love\" topped the charts in 25 other countries, including Canada, Australia, New Zealand, France, Germany, the Republic of Ireland, Russia, Scotland, Switzerland, and the United Kingdom. According to Billboard it is the 29th most successful single of all time in the US. As of 2015, the single has sold 10.5 million copies worldwide, thus being one of the best selling singles of all time.\nThe song's accompanying music video, directed by Melina Matsoukas, depicts the singer as a drug-abusing thrill-seeker in a relationship that quickly spirals downward into addiction and domestic violence. The video won a Grammy Award for Best Music Video at the 55th Annual Grammy Awards and MTV Video Music Award for Video of the Year at the 2012 MTV Video Music Awards. The song has been performed on both the UK and US versions of The X Factor, as well as at the 54th Annual Grammy Awards and the 2012 Brit Awards. Multiple recording artists have covered \"We Found Love\" including British artists Coldplay and Jessie J.\n\nBackground\nFollowing the release and success of her album Loud (2010), Rihanna originally revealed via Twitter that the album would be re-issued with new songs and released in Fall 2011, writing that \"[t]he [Loud era] continues with more new music to add to [your] collection\". In September 2011, Rihanna again took to the social networking site to confirm that the plans had been scrapped, with the singer tweeting \"I [thought about] a [re-release], but LOUD is its own body of work! Plus [you] guys work so hard that [you] deserve to act brand new\". On September 19, 2011, Rihanna further provoked excitement amongst her followers when she posted that she was listening to the song, only to be re-tweeted by Calvin Harris, who replied \"Sometimes it feels like we find love in the most hopeless place\", suggesting that his response contained possible lyrics from the song. In an interview with Capital FM, Harris – who produced the track – explained that followers of Rihanna had sent messages to him regarding their expectations of the song, saying \"The song better not be rubbish\", which he interpreted as slightly threatening, but went on to say that \"it's all part of the fun\". In an interview for Q magazine, Harris said of the lyric, \"we found love in a hopeless place,\" \"It could have been Jumpin Jaks in Dumfries (Harris' home town), I don't know exactly what I was thinking about.\"\"We Found Love\" premiered in the United Kingdom on September 22, 2011, on Capital FM, and was sent for mainstream adds in the United States on October 11, 2011. The song was released via iTunes on September 22, 2011. During an interview with MTV News, Calvin Harris revealed, \"'We Found Love,' is the most successful thing I've done ever... It's not strictly a song by me, obviously, it's by Rihanna. She sings it...It was great to work with her... No one could have taken it as far as she did. You can't escape it here [in America]. I've heard it a lot. I've heard it probably more times today than I did when I was mixing it. Which is a good thing... Ever since the Rihanna song did well, a lot of people want to do some stuff, which is great... That's what I enjoy doing. In terms of actual names, I've not done anything yet.\" In October 2012, British singer Leona Lewis claimed that she was originally chosen to sing the song but ended up losing it to Rihanna when Harris went touring with the latter, commenting. \"I didn’t commit to it because I wanted \"Trouble\" to be my first single so I think that was another reason they went with Rihanna. It was the same version and production but mine’s better.\" In 2013, Nicole Scherzinger claimed that she was the first artist given the song but ended up rejecting it, commenting. \"I've got the demo of that song and I was busy at the time. They'd sent me a few dance tracks and I wasn't able to get to them and I was like, 'Oh there's so much dance and I want to take a break from it.\"\n\nArtwork\nThe artwork for \"We Found Love\" was released by Rihanna's official Facebook page on September 22, 2011. Grady Smith of Entertainment Weekly's The Music Mix criticized the song's artwork, writing \"'We found love in a hopeless place,' Rihanna repeats over a David Guetta-ish synth beat. But judging by the single cover, her place doesn't look too hopeless, does it? Maybe there's a building on fire outside the frame, and that fire hydrant doesn't work. I guess that would be hopeless.\" A reviewer for Sugar Magazine wrote that \"On anyone else this would be a pretty odd look but Rihanna somehow makes a denim overload look good.\" A reviewer for Neon Limelight commented that Rihanna appeared to be adopting a tomboy image for the new project, writing, \"She really is going for that sexy tomboy look this album era it seems; remember the laid back look she rocked on the single's cover art?\".\n\nComposition\n\"We Found Love\" is an electro house song with elements of Europop, pop, techno, dance-pop, trance, and Euro disco. According to the digital music sheet published at musicnotes.com, the song is written in the key of F ♯ major and it is set at a tempo of 128 beats per minute. The instrumentation of \"We Found Love\" consists of alarm bells, a keyboard, repetitive pumped-up synthesizers and 4/4 beats.Rihanna's vocal range in the song spans one octave, from the lower note of C♯4 to the higher note of C♯5. Priya Elan of NME commented that Rihanna sounds \"extremely relaxed\" and Bill Lamb of About.com wrote that her vocals are simple and unaffected. Leah Collins of The Vancouver Sun wrote that Rihanna's vocals on \"We Found Love\" were similar to her vocals on \"Fly\". According to Elan, the keyboard work in the song bears resemblance to that in from \"Only Girl (In the World)\" and the melody is similar to that of \"Complicated\", a track included in Rihanna's 2010 studio album Loud. Similarly, Michael Cragg of The Guardian noted that \"We Found Love\" is in the same vein as \"Only Girl (In the World)\", with regard to its dance beat.The lyrical content of the song is sparse and largely revolves around Rihanna chanting the song's hook line, \"We found love in a hopeless place\". Jody Rosen of Rolling Stone described it as \"half-baked romantic\".  Rihanna starts the song in a falsetto airy voice as she sings, \"Yellow diamonds in the light / And we’re standing side by side / As your shadow crosses mine / What it takes to come alive.\" Michael Cragg commented that the first chorus is almost being sidelined in favor of a large chunk of Harris's riff, before they join on the second chorus. The hook repeatedly rings throughout the song.\n\nCritical reception\nThe song received polarized reviews from music critics. Amanda Dobbins of New York magazine praised the composition of the song, writing \"Harris's electro fingerprints are all over this one — it plays like a straight house track, with some dreamy Rihanna vocals added in over the beat.\" Robbie Daw of Idolator commented on the song's lyrics, with particular emphasis on the line \"We found love in a hopeless place\", writing that it is possibly the best lyric in pop music so far in 2011. A reviewer for Instinct magazine praised the song, writing that \"We Found Love\" does not mark a departure from the dance-floor oriented material Rihanna debuted on Loud, but it certainly boasts \"a higher-energy, peak-hour vibe\". Similarly, Michael Cragg of The Guardian commented that the song takes the dance direction Rihanna hinted at on \"Only Girl (In the World)\" and continues releasing similar songs, making reference to \"We Found Love\". Cragg also likened the song to Leona Lewis's recent single, \"Collide\", but criticized the song's structure, writing \"[it] is slightly odd\". He ended his review writing, \"Either way, she could have recited Nick Clegg's conference speech from Wednesday over the sound of Harris cracking his knuckles and it would be a hit.\"Priya Elan of NME commented, \"By now it's pretty customary to have a jaw-on-the-floor reaction to the first single from a Rihanna album. 'Pon De Replay', 'SOS', 'Umbrella', 'Russian Roulette', 'Only Girl In The World'.\" Despite complimenting Rihanna for sounding extremely relaxed and calling her vocal as \"luxurious calling to mind the atmosphere\", Elan concluded that the over-all effect is underwhelming. She continued by writing that instead of re-inventing the pop wheel, \"We Found Love\" has \"a whiff of treading-water about it\" and that \"if there is a 'goosebump' moment to be had it comes after many multiple plays and, dare we say it, a glass of something strong.\" Awarding \"We Found Love\" two stars out of five, Jody Rosen of Rolling Stone was critical, writing that it \"is much ado about very little indeed\" and that is \"an insipid tune\". He concluded that Rihanna repeats 'We found love in a hopeless place' \"approximately 350 times, hoping it will start to mean something. It's the worst single of Rihanna’s career. It will probably top the Hot 100 anyway.\" Leah Collins of The Vancouver Sun initially praised Rihanna's vocal performance in the song, writing that she \"smoothes out her vocals\", before adding, \"Angelic as she sounds, though, [her] performance – which is mostly just her repeating the line 'We found love in a hopeless place' – seems to take second place to Harris' repetitive synth-based blare.\" Similarly, Amos Barshad of Grantland criticized the singer's vocal performance, calling it \"a complete afterthought\" before concluding, \"People who regularly attend the Electric Zoo festival: Rihanna wants your money!\"A reviewer for GlobalGrind commented on the song's lyrics, suggesting that there is perhaps an underlying message in the song for ex-boyfriend Chris Brown, in the line \"We found love in a hopeless place\". This further raised suspicion when Brown re-tweeted one of Rihanna's posts on Twitter, which read \"Sometimes it feels like we find love in the most hopeless place\". Jessica Herndon of People magazine praised the song, saying that \"'We Found Love' had an amazing influence on people all across the world in 2012, becoming one of the most popular and most successful songs\".Pitchfork Media commented, \"Over a frantic, Calvin Harris-produced, Guetta-meets-'Sandstorm' beat on her sixth record's lead-off single, Rihanna repeats these words almost 20 times. 'We Found Love' ranks among Ri's best singles because it recognizes that there's not much more that needs to be said: in three and a half minutes, the line moves from being a great pop lyric to a triumphant mantra to something suggestive of a whole spectrum of unspoken emotion. The best pop music transports you to somewhere beyond words, and Rihanna's strongest singles all seem to be in on this secret.\" Allmusic chose the song as a highlight on Talk That Talk, and wrote about the \"singer's ecstatic vocal than Calvin Harris' shrill, plinky production\". Los Angeles Times commented that the song was an \"ode for bad love\" and added it \"wouldn't be out of place at Electric Daisy Carnival\". The New York Times' writer commented \"'We Found Love' almost criminally recalls the swinging Crystal Waters singles, with triumphant percussion somewhere between church and seventh-inning stretch.\" Billboard magazine also praised the song, saying that: \"Through a haze of glitter and bliss, Rihanna emerges to let us find a gorgeous hook in a hopeless place, and Calvin Harris becomes a household name.\" As of January 2015, Billboard named \"We Found Love\" as the best song of the 2010s (so far). USA Today considered the song to be a highlight on the set, commenting that Rihanna sings \"bistfully\".  Entertainment Weekly noted, \"U.K. club king Calvin Harris trades Rihanna's usual somber synths for disco ecstasy on 'We Found Love,' a song that builds and builds to a climax that's so arena-ready it practically begs for someone to blow a vuvuzela\".\n\nRecognition and awards\nMTV chose \"We Found Love\" as the third best song of 2011, and \"Video of the Year\" at the MTV Video Music Awards 2012. The writers of the website further commented, \"The leadoff single from Talk That Talk is where Rihanna fully embraced EDM. Produced by Calvin Harris, 'We Found Love' is a swirling party track about love and loss, the rare song that manages to be sad and joyous all at once. And it is a pinnacle of the pop/dance crossover, a throwback to '90s raves that could make even the most stoic lover of pop want to break out a glow stick and just dance. Rob Sheffield of Rolling Stone put \"We Found Love\" at number eleven on his list of Top 25 Songs of 2011 commenting, \"While her other hits tried to camouflage her spindly voice, here it just strains for that spindly melody.\" It was named the third biggest love song of all time by Billboard.\n\nCritic lists\nAccording to Acclaimed Music, \"We Found Love\" is statistically the 5th most acclaimed song from 2011 and the 45th most acclaimed in the 2010s.\n\nChart performance\nOceania\n\"We Found Love\" made its chart debut on the New Zealand Singles Chart on September 26, 2011, at number 14, and in its fifth week, rose to number one. It remained at the top for nine straight weeks, becoming Rihanna's longest-running single in the country, overtaking 'Umbrella' which reigned for six weeks in 2007. The song has since been certified three-times platinum by the RIANZ, denoting shipments of 45,000 copies. In Australia, \"We Found Love\" debuted on the Australian Singles Chart on October 9, 2011, at number three, before rising to number two for multiple weeks. As of February 2013, the song has been certified six-times platinum by the Australian Recording Industry Association, denoting shipments of 420,000 copies, marking Rihanna's best-selling single in the country as a lead artist.\n\nNorth America\nIn the United States, the song debuted on the Billboard Hot 100 chart on September 28, 2011, at number 16. \"We Found Love\" became the singer's fourth highest debut on the chart out of her 31 Hot 100 chart entries, with the highest being her collaboration with Eminem, \"Love the Way You Lie\", which debuted at number two in July 2010. The following week, \"We Found Love\" rose to number nine, giving Rihanna the record for a solo artist to have amassed twenty top-ten singles in the history of the Billboard Hot 100 chart in the shortest amount of time. Rihanna achieved the feat in a time span of six years and four months, surpassing the record previously held by Madonna who managed the achievement in a time span of six years and nine months. In its sixth week on the chart, the song reached number one, giving Rihanna her eleventh number-one single and Calvin Harris his first number-one single in the United States and making him the first British dance DJ to top the Billboard Hot 100 and the first Scottish solo act to top the chart since Lulu's \"To Sir with Love\" in 1967. thus tying her with Whitney Houston in fifth place for the highest number of number-one singles in the 53-year history of the chart, behind The Beatles (20), Mariah Carey (19), Michael Jackson (13), and a fourth place tie between Madonna and The Supremes (both with 12). Rihanna also tied with Houston as the female artists with the third most number-one singles on the chart, behind Carey and Madonna. \"We Found Love\" spent 10 non-consecutive weeks at the top of the Billboard Hot 100, surpassing \"Umbrella\" as Rihanna's longest number-one single in the country, and was the longest-running number one of 2011. It was certified nine times platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) for shipping more than 9 million copies. As of June 2015, the song has sold 5.4 million digital copies in the US. On August 1, 2013, Billboard announced that \"We Found Love\" is the 24th biggest Hot 100 hit of all time in the chart's 55-year history.\"We Found Love\" debuted at number seven on the US Hot Digital Songs chart, with digital download sales of 117,000 after only four days according to Nielsen SoundScan. In its fifth week, the song rose to number one, with sales of 231,000 copies, giving Rihanna her eleventh number-one song on the chart, further extending her record as the artist with the most number ones. The song spent a second week at number one on the chart, with sales of 243,000 copies, bringing total sales to 1,057,000 copies sold, marking Rihanna's twentieth download to reach the million-selling milestone, extending her record for the most such downloads among women. On October 12, 2011, the song debuted at number 39 on the US Hot Dance Club Songs chart and number 21 on the Pop Songs chart. It eventually reached number one on both charts. It was, until 2013, the most recent song to spend at least two consecutive weeks atop the US Hot Dance Club chart, until Daft Punk's \"Get Lucky\". \"We Found Love\" also peaked at numbers three and two on the US Latin Songs and Latin Pop Songs charts, becoming Rihanna's highest-charting single on both charts. Furthermore, the song reached the top spot on the Canadian Hot 100 chart.\n\nEurope\nIn Harris's native United Kingdom, \"We Found Love\" debuted at the top of the UK Singles Chart, UK Dance Chart and UK Singles Download Chart on October 9, 2011 – for the week ending date October 15, 2011 – with 87,000 copies sold, despite only having been on sale for four days. With \"We Found Love\" debuting at the top of the UK Singles Chart, Rihanna set a record by becoming the first female solo artist to top the chart six times in five consecutive years, having previously held pole position with \"Umbrella\", \"Take a Bow\", \"Run This Town\", \"Only Girl (In the World)\" and \"What's My Name\" between 2007 and 2011. It was also Rihanna's sixth and Harris' third number one in the UK. The song retained its number-one position on all three charts for three consecutive weeks, selling 92,000 copies in its third week. Total sales for \"We Found Love\" in the United Kingdom stood at 372,268 after just 24 days. In its fifth week, the song fell a place to number two but then in its sixth week, the song returned to number-one for a fourth non-consecutive week and eventually topped the chart for six weeks, resulting in Rihanna overtaking Adele as the artist with the most cumulative weeks at number one in 2011 for a solo female artist, with a total of seven weeks between \"We Found Love\" and her January release \"What's My Name?\". In addition, in its sixth week at number one, Rihanna scored her second \"chart double\" of the year when Talk That Talk and \"We Found Love\" placed at number one on the albums and singles charts, respectively. This achievement had not been achieved since 1979 and made Rihanna the first female artist in chart history to score two \"chart doubles\" in the same year, with the singer's previous album Loud and its second single, 'What's My Name?' topping both charts earlier in 2011. By February 2012, the single had racked up 1,006,460 copies in 19 weeks, making it Rihanna's second solo track (third overall) to reach the million sales plateau since October 2011, following \"Love the Way You Lie\" and \"Only Girl (In the World)\". In November 2012, it was included on 'The Million Sellers' list by the Official Charts Company, consisting of the best-selling singles in the UK that have sold at least one million copies since 1952. It charted at number 76 out of a total 123, having sold 1.13 million copies. As of February 2016, the song has sold 1.39 million copies in the UK, making it Rihanna's biggest-selling single there. \"We Found Love\" is the 9th best-selling song of all time by a female artist in Britain.Elsewhere in Europe, the song topped the charts in Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Hungary, Ireland, Norway, Poland, Russia, Slovakia, Sweden and Switzerland and attained top-five positions in the Flanders and Wallonia regions of Belgium at numbers three and two, and reached number two in the Czech Republic and Spain and three in the Netherlands. In Germany \"We Found Love\" entered the single chart at number one on October 28, 2011, becoming Rihanna's fourth number one in the country. After being deposed for a week, the track rebounded to take the lead spending three further weeks at the top, becoming Rihanna's second longest-running number one hit in the country after \"Umbrella\" in 2007. The song topped certain European charts for lengthy periods, including in Norway for nine non-consecutive weeks, Ireland for seven consecutive weeks and Denmark for six weeks.\n\nMusic video\nThe music video for \"We Found Love\" was shot in Northern Ireland in late September 2011, in County Down, Northern Ireland and the New Lodge area of North Belfast.  The video was directed by Melina Matsoukas, who had previously directed the videos for \"Hard\" (2009), \"Rude Boy\" (2010), \"Rockstar 101\" (2010) and the controversial \"S&M\" (2011). Anticipation for the video grew in the United Kingdom when the national news picked up on the story of sixty-one-year-old Northern Ireland farmer Alan Graham withdrawing his permission to film in his barley field in Bangor, County Down after taking issue with Rihanna's clothing, focusing on her appearing topless and also wearing a red bikini top which he thought was an \"inappropriate state of undress\". Rihanna and her film crew departed amiably after Graham advised them to \"be acquainted with God and to consider His Son, the Lord Jesus Christ, and His death and Resurrection.\"The video begins with a monologue about love and heartbreak by an unseen narrator, fashion model Agyness Deyn. Multiple scenes of Rihanna and boxer Dudley O'Shaughnessy are intercut throughout the narration, depicting them in different love and hate situations with each other. The two are shown as completely enamored with each other while engaging in fun activities together, including enjoying their time at an indoor skating centre and eating in fast food restaurants. During the chorus, the video shows the romance to be somewhat warped, as images of drugs, various pills and dilated pupils are shown, while brief scenes of Rihanna and her boyfriend preparing to engage in sexual intercourse and their various stages of undress are shown. The chorus continues and the video abruptly cuts to Rihanna and other people at an outdoor rave, dancing to music. Calvin Harris features as the DJ during this scene.\nFrom the second verse, Rihanna and her boyfriend are seen happily running amok in a supermarket, pushing each other in a shopping cart and spraying canned drinks at each other. This scene is interrupted with Rihanna in a Pontiac Trans Am outside with her boyfriend who begins to recklessly drive in circles, resulting in Rihanna asking him to stop the car which ensues into an argument between the pair. The video then progressively shows the couple experiencing mounting difficulties in their relationship. Rihanna removes herself from the car and returns moments later where we see her boyfriend grab her chin to look at him, suggesting that he is domestically violent towards her. During the final chorus Rihanna can be seen vomiting what appears to be pink and white streamers; she is also seen passed out on the street while her boyfriend tries to revive her. In another scene, Rihanna is seen lying on a couch while her boyfriend tattoos the word 'MINE' on her backside. Eventually, Rihanna decides to leave her boyfriend after finding him passed out on the floor of his apartment – and most likely due to the previous events shown throughout the video. The clip ends with Rihanna curled up in the corner of a room, crying.The video generated controversy for its depiction of violence and drug use, as well as for Rihanna's removal of her clothes during filming. One journalist wrote, \"The song is probably one of the most talked about in the country following the Barbadian being told to 'find God' after running naked through a Northern Irish farmer's field.\" It was described as a \"disgrace\" by an anti-rape campaigner, and Christian commenters worried about the effects of the video and that \"Rihanna is damaging the moral and self-worth of young impressionable teens.\" However, The Guardian praised the video for being different in its time period and called it \"a very British music video\", comparing it to UK TV series, Skins. The video won a Grammy Award for 'Best Short-Form Music Video. As of January 2015, Billboard named the video as the second best music video of the 2010s (so far).\n\nLive performances\nRihanna performed \"We Found Love\" for the first time on November 14, 2011, during a concert of her Loud Tour in London. The song was then added to the setlist as the closing song for the rest of the tour until it ended on December 22. On November 17, 2011, Rihanna performed the song on first season of The X Factor USA. The performance featured Rihanna wearing torn jeans and a bomber jacket with neon signs also present on the stage. On November 20, 2011, Rihanna performed the song on the eighth season of The X Factor UK, featuring Rihanna wearing a small tartan dress.On February 12, 2012, Rihanna performed \"We Found Love\" at the 54th Annual Grammy Awards held at the Staples Center in Los Angeles, followed by her duet single \"Princess of China\" with Coldplay for first time. John Mitchell from MTV News said he thought Rihanna looked \"gorgeous\" and that she gave \"off a Tina Turner vibe — Rihanna rocked the blond locks she introduced recently, wearing a tight, belly-baring ensemble.\" USA Today's writer Ed Masley, praised the performance, describing it as \"shout in shout-out\". The Huffington Post also noted that the performance had \"a twinge of Tina Turner\". Time magazine graded the performance with an A, saying that \"Rihanna never disappoints. Her pop songs are always danceable, often catchy and consistently awesome — sometimes they even have some substance to them. Similarly, her Grammy performance wasn't the flashiest or craziest, and she didn’t bust out dance moves the way other entertainers did, but it was one of the most enjoyable.\"Later that month, the singer performed the song at the Brit Awards held on February 21, 2012, at the O2 Arena in London. The performance began with Rihanna, in only an old grandad-style jumper covering her body, in a clear cage as colourful paint began to be thrown inside with her, although none was thrown onto the singer herself. Dancers were also present as Rihanna emerged from the cage and began dancing along the broad stretch of stage. The performance concluded with big multi-coloured balloons pouring down red confetti from the ceiling as they burst, finalizing with Rihanna returning to the paint-covered cage and smearing it over herself ending with her silhouette being broadcast through the cage. At the ceremony, Rihanna also won the award for Best International Female Solo Artist. Whilst promoting her first feature film appearance in Battleship, Rihanna made a visit to Japan, performing \"We Found Love\" on the Japanese music television program Music Station. She donned a traditional kimono and concluded the performance by crowd surfing into the audience. On April 24, 2012, Rihanna performed a special acoustic version of the song at the Time 100 gala for Time's selection of that year's 100 most influential people of which Rihanna was listed. Rihanna later performed \"We Found Love\" at Radio 1's Hackney Weekend on May 24, 2012, as the seventeenth and final song on the set list. The performance featured a giant sphinx on the stage. On September 9, 2012, Rihanna performed the single (along with \"Princess of China\" and \"Run This Town\") with Coldplay and Jay-Z at the closing ceremony of the 2012 Summer Paralympics in London, entering on a steampunk pirate ship and also suspended in the air on a metal bench. On December 9, 2012, Rihanna performed \"We Found Love\" in a medley with a solo version of \"Stay\" on the final of ninth season of The X Factor UK. She also performed the song at the 2016 MTV Video Music Awards. She performed the song as part of her set during the halftime show of Super Bowl LVII.\n\nCover versions\nAmerican singer Tinashe uploaded a music video for her cover on her YouTube account on October 21, 2011. British alternative rock band Coldplay, with whom Rihanna would later collaborate on their song \"Princess of China\", covered \"We Found Love\" on October 27, 2011, during a performance at BBC Radio 1's Live Lounge. Jocelyn Vena of MTV News called the performance \"flawless\", writing \"Lead singer Chris Martin's haunting vocals and the band's acoustic rendition, using drums, piano and guitar, play up the sadness of the track.\" Jason Lipshutz of Billboard magazine also noted that the band used \"piano flourishes, a kick drum and a simple guitar lick to convey the song's romantic declaration\", while making a ballad which was \"reminiscent of Bruno Mars' emotional reworking of Katy Perry's 'California Gurls'\". Matthew Perpetua of Rolling Stone wrote: \"It may surprise that their rendition is actually pretty good. Whereas Rihanna's version is a thumping rave anthem, Chris Martin and company transform it into a lovely piano ballad nearly indistinguishable from many of their own songs.\" A writer for The Hollywood Reporter said: \"Martin's vocals blend with the piano for a slightly softer take on the tragic love story.\" On February 17, 2012, British singer Jessie J made a cover of the song on BBC Radio1's Live Lounge.Lea Michele and Naya Rivera covered the song in the climax of the third season's tenth episode of Glee, \"Yes/No\". Romanian X Factor contestant Diana Hetea performed \"We Found Love\" in the \"Public's Choice Gala\" on December 10, 2011. Even though ill of laryngitis, Hetea's performance was praised all three judges that called it \"[The] Perfect match for her!\" both visually and vocally. Kris Allen also covered the song mashing it with other songs by Katy Perry and other female artists. Carmen Smith also performed \"We Found Love\" for her battle round in the Australian Version of the Voice which saw her through to next round.In September 2012, Kelly Clarkson performed the song during a concert in Virginia Beach.  In October 2012, British singer Ed Sheeran did an acoustic cover of the song for Sirius XM Radio. Lindsey Stirling covered it in a music video filmed in a Kenyan village. British pop rock band McFly covered \"We Found Love\" on their \"Keep Calm And Play Lounder\" tour 2012. Kele Okereke sang a verse of the song as the intro to his band Bloc Party's song \"Flux\" on their June 2012 U.K. tour. In July 2014, Tori Amos covered the song on her Unrepentant Geraldines Tour. In 2011, Boyce Avenue, a pop rock band, also made an acoustic cover of the song and released it iTunes and their YouTube channel. In November 2012, Forever The Sickest Kids covered the song as part of Punk Goes Pop 5. \nYouTubers Tom Scott and Matt Gray spoofed the song in their video 'Ten Illegal Things To Do In London.' The parody, where the song's chorus lyrics are replaced with 'We Flew A Kite In A Public Place,' plays over footage of Gray flying a kite in a public place, which is illegal in the U.K. under the Metropolitan Police Act 1839.\n\nRemixes\nIn November 2011, R3hab released a remix of \"We Found Love\" with a \"Halloween\" sound. He explained \"I made two versions ... one version is more melodic and euphoric. This [first] one is more dark because the lyrics [to] 'We Found Love' can also be seen as something dark. 'We are at the end of the world/ And I still found love.' So from there came the more darker chord progression and the more darker atmosphere, like Dracula is coming to get you. It's just got a lot of emotion and that worked out great for me.\"On January 13, 2012, Rap-Up released a remix of \"We Found Love\" featuring American rapper Flo Rida. Flo Rida's parts overlap Calvin Harris' produced dance beats. In the opening lines, Flo Rida introduces himself and raps tongue twisters about Rihanna and The Bahamas, \"You know I got love for you/ See what happened was we in Bahams/ I remember it was the ox summer, oh so pretty I/ ..Girl nice to meet you what's the honour/ Yeah she tap me told me she Rihanna.\". He also references singer Mick Jagger singing that he is \"rocking a party 'like I'm Mick Jagger.\" Flo Rida, himself in an interview with NME revealed that it was an honor for him to work with Rihanna. He also revealed that \"We Found Love\" was one of his favorite songs and that's why he decided to make a remix with Rihanna. He added that Calvin Harris' production impressed him and heavily influenced him on his future work. Rihanna also noted that she decided to work with Flo Rida because of his \"wild\" productions on his songs.Andrew Unterberger of the website PopDust wrote that Flo Rida was \"exactly\" what the original version of \"We Found Love\" was missing. He added, \"No Rihanna, you got it backwards—it's Flo Rida who needs to have other, more talented people on his songs in order to turn them into hits, not the other way around... At least this remix does feature a sizeable contribution from Flo, as he shows up on both the intro and over the song's primary instrumental hook with his trademark unintelligible yammering, though he gets in at least one reference to rocking a party 'like I'm Mick Jagger.'\" Matthew Perpetua of Rolling Stone praised the remix of the song, saying that \"once again, Flo Rida shows his true rapping skills over the beat of Rihanna's 'We Found Love'\". Both Billboard's Erika Ramirez and Spin's Marc Hogan praised the remixed version calling it \"refreshing\" and \"interesting\". However, Becky Bain of the website Idolator was more negative towards the remix. She noted, \"Being that Rihanna's 'We Found Love' has enough beats and synths to be its own remix, not to mention it couldn't possibly be even more popular on the Hot 100... we find it pointless to release a new version of the single with Flo Rida.\"\n\nFormats and track listings\nCredits and personnel\nCredits adapted from CD single liner notes.Recording\n\nRecorded at Fly Eye Studios, London, United Kingdom and Westlake Recording Studios, Los Angeles, California.Personnel\n\nRihanna - vocals\nCalvin Harris – songwriter, producer, recording, mixing and instrumentation\nMarcos Tovar – vocal recording\nAlejandro Barajas – assistant recording engineer\nPhil Tan – mixing\nDamien Lewis – assistant mixing\n\nCharts\nCertifications\nRelease history\nSee also\nPassage 4:\nLightning (song)\n\"Lightning\" is a song by British-Irish boy band the Wanted, taken as the third single from their second studio album, Battleground.

The song kicks off with a thumping electronic beat, as Tom's raspy vocals come in: \"You're in control, pressing pause on my heartbeat...\". During the chorus, the band sing: \"I know it's a little bit frightening, we might as well be playing with lightning now-ow-ow.\" Band member Tom Parker said of the song, \"We all felt it was a sound like we've never done before. It's the perfect prelude to the album, and a great song to get you in the mood for a party.\" The song premiered on mainstream radio on 17 September 2011. Band member Max George said of the song, \"It was only really meant as a filler track. Something to keep the fans interested on the weeks leading up to the album release. We never knew it would be so successful.\"\n\nCritical reception\nA positive reception came from \"CBBC Newsround\" who rated it four out of five stars. They went on to say that \"The verses aren't that catchy, but the chorus will get you humming in a lightning flash!.\" They also said that \"the rousing singalong chorus is well worth waiting for.\" Another positive reception came from Digital Spy's Lewis Corner, who rated it four stars out of five and wrote that \"[...] The five-piece croon over a cool 'n' catchy melody more addictive than snacking on a tube of Pringles in front of the telly.\" [...] \"The results are strikingly similar; once you pop, you shamelessly can't stop no matter how much you try.\"\n\nPromotion\nThe band performed the song live for the first time during the results show of the 16 October edition of The X Factor. They also made a special appearance on the Strictly Come Dancing Halloween Special to perform the song, on 30 October 2011.\n\nMusic video\nThe music video for \"Lightning\" was director by Matt Stawski.

It is the third single released from his second album Kryptonite.\nOriginally put out as a 12\" in 2008, it was re-released in 2010 featuring vocals from Ce'cile although there is a version of the song on his album Nextlevelism which features Ms. Dynamite. The 2010 version of the song peaked at number 24 on the UK Singles Chart. The music video was directed by Ben Newman and edited by Jacek Zajkowski.

The youths are seen doing various activities including skateboarding, skipping, and free running.\n\nCritical reception\nFraser McAlpine of BBC Chart Blog gave the song a positive review stating:\n\nSometimes the brightest gems are right in front of your eyes, hiding in plain sight. Or just obscured by people who know they are there, but have forgotten to tell you.\nWith this song, and its fantastic video, I will admit that my attention was miles away, probably raking through some slower, drabber, less fun things (ie: ANYTHING ELSE). I had no idea something this ker-ay-zee, this life-affirming, this astonishingly chipper was released across on my beloved internet just seven days ago, until a friend dragged me over to look at what he called \"the skipping video\" on his phone.\nYeah, that's right, a skipping video. I mean how impressive can a video which features people either successfully or unsuccessfully jumping over a moving rope actually b...oh my LORD have you SEEN THE SKIPPING VIDEO? YOU'VE GOT TO SEE THE SKIPPING VIDEO! THE SKIPPING VIDEO IS AMAZING! .\n\nTrack listings\nChart performance\nCertifications\nRelease history\nPassage 8:\nGrace Kelly (song)\n\"Grace Kelly\" is the second single by British singer Mika. It is the opening track on Mika's debut studio album Life in Cartoon Motion (2007). Produced and mixed by Greg Wells, the song entered the UK Singles Chart at number three and the UK Official Download Chart at number one. One week later, it jumped to the top of the UK Singles Chart on download sales alone, the second song to do so after Gnarls Barkley's \"Crazy\" the previous year. The track was number one on the UK Singles Chart for five weeks, and ended 2007 as the year's third biggest-selling single in that country. In the US, \"Grace Kelly\" was made available for digital download on 16 January 2007. This song was also No. 89 on MTV Asia's list of Top 100 Hits of 2007. It was designed to be a mocking satire of musicians who try to reinvent themselves to be popular.\nThe song is titled after Academy Award-winning American film and stage actress, and Princess of Monaco, Grace Kelly. The bit of dialogue used in the song is from the film The Country Girl, which stars Kelly. Mika claims the song was inspired after a bad experience with a record company executive, in which he was told to be more like Craig David. The lyric \"So I tried a little Freddie\" is a reference to Queen's Freddie Mercury, to whose singing voice Mika's has been compared. On at least one occasion, Mika confirmed that he used the main melody from Figaro's famous aria \"Largo al factotum\", from the opera The Barber of Seville by Gioachino Rossini. Mika performed the song at the MTV Europe Music Awards 2007 in Munich and at the 2008 BRIT Awards at the Earls Court Exhibition Centre, London, where it was nominated for Best British Single, but lost to \"Shine\" by Take That. The song has sold over 630,000 copies in the UK, as stated by the Official Charts Company.\n\nBackground and composition\nMika wrote the song after he felt frustrated with record label executives that wanted him to change his sound to fit the common pop mold. In the song, Mika points out how he can pretend to be anyone he likes to win approval – in this case the glamorous actress Grace Kelly. He wrote the song after the record company told him that they wanted to model his look and sound on Craig David, who was popular at the time in the UK. Mika rejected this idea and wrote \"Grace Kelly\" as a way of expressing his individuality. The song's melody is based on the aria \"Largo al factotum\", from the opera The Barber of Seville by Gioachino Rossini.\n\nCritical reception\nThe song received positive reviews from music critics. Heather Phares from AllMusic wrote a positive review for the song, stating that \"Mika's singles are his most charming moments, including the instant sunshine of \"Grace Kelly,\" which crams tap-dancing rhythms, filmic dialogue, Elton's pianos, Freddie's vocal harmonies, and Brian May's guitars into just over three minutes.\" Christian John Wikane from PopMatters wrote an extensive article about the comparisons between Mika and Freddie Mercury, writing that \"he sounds a lot like Mercury and wears the influence like a badge of honor, even name-checking the late front man of Queen in the first verse. Mika vacillates between the affected theatricality of Mercury's full-throttled voice and his own strong falsetto, where he earnestly implores \"Why don't you like me?\" no less than 12 times.Beth Johnson from Entertainment Weekly wrote that \"Nothing quite matches the crystal-shattering exuberance of hit Grace Kelly.\" John Murphy from musicOMH wrote that \"It's big, joyous, dumb pop, and the only danger with it is that you'll be utterly sick of it fast.\" Lizzie Enever from BBC Music was direct, writing that \"Grace Kelly is a great pop song – it's catchy, you can't help singing along and it grates on you after a few days when you can't get it out of your head but you still go back for more – flawless credentials.\" Graham Griffith, also from About.com, wrote that the song \"is an outrageously irresistible and infectious pop gem.\" Dom Passantino from Stylus Magazine criticized the track, writing that \"it seems to suggest the boy has some level for musicals, being as it is all Broadway flittering and hackneyed attempts at conveying a story with its lyrics. But here's the problem: he's got no tales to tell, just a tab at his local make-up supplier. \"Am I too dirty, am I too flirty?\" he sings at one point.\"\n\nAccolades\nAt the 2007 World Music Awards, Mika won for Best Selling British Artist, Best Selling New Artist, Best Selling Male Entertainer, and World's Best Selling Pop Rock Male Artist.\n\nLive performances and covers\nTop 50 contestant of American Idol Josiah Leming performed a rendition of the song in Hollywood for the judges, which received great praise.\nA version by Mika appears on the 2007 compilation album The Saturday Sessions: The Dermot O'Leary Show.\nMika performed this song on series 4 episode 3 of The Friday Night Project on 19 January 2007.

In the US market, it peaked at number 57 on the Billboard Hot 100. The December 2007 Observer Music Monthly asked Mika how it felt getting to No. 1 in the UK with this song. He replied: \"Very unreal. It still feels unreal. It's just a song I wrote in my room. By the time I'd written 'Grace Kelly' everything in my life had been called into question. Trying to find out what I was going to do with my life, trying to be a musician, to be independent, to give myself the remote chance of any kind of a relationship. I was just sorting every thing out in my head. That song sums it all up.\" It went to #1 on the United Kingdom, Czech Republic, Ireland, Italy, Norway and Turkey singles charts. The song was 82 in the French physical charts but number 2 in digital ones, and has more than 50,000 sales in the country. The song has more than 5 million sales.\n\nCharts\nCertifications\nSee also\nList of number-one hits in Denmark\nList of number-one singles of 2007 (Ireland)\nList of number-one hits of 2007 (Italy)\nList of number-one hits in Norway\nList of number-one singles from the 2000s (UK)\nPassage 9:\nRoyal Blood discography\nEnglish rock duo Royal Blood have released three studio albums, two extended plays (EPs), fourteen singles and nineteen music videos.
