Calvin Harris, Clementine Douglas – Blessings (Official Visualiser)

A powerful collaboration between Calvin Harris, the renowned British DJ/producer, and rising Birmingham-born singer Clementine Douglas.

It’s a one-of-a-kind track where a dancefloor-shaking, powerful piano melody meshes perfectly with Douglas’s expressively soulful vocals—she won “Dance Vocalist of the Year” at the BBC Radio 1 Dance Awards in 2022.

Following Harris’s country-tinged single “Smoke the Pain Away,” released in March 2025, this work marks a return to his dance-music roots, delivering a dazzling sound tailor-made for summer festivals and the club scene.

Highly recommended for listeners seeking a feel-good groove and an uplifting, open atmosphere.
