On Tuesday (Aug. 6), Smith dropped the official music video for their duet version of “I’m Not the Only One” featuring Alicia Keys . Showing clips from a live recording at Keys’ Jungle City Studios in New York City, the video tracks the duo’s cozy session as they reimagine the British singer’s beloved hit 10 years later.
The video also follows Smith at their In the Lonely Hour anniversary party in June, where he and Keys first performed their new version of the song the night prior to their studio session. Footage shows Smith celebrating with the evening’s emcee Lady Bunny, as well as greeting friends and fans alike before taking to the stage with Keys.
In a statement, Smith reiterated that they were “so honored” to work with Keys on the new version of the single, calling her “an incredible talent and a beautiful soul.” Keys added that the collaboration had “been on both of our wishlists,” before detailing how the recording session happened. “The vibe was super intimate … My son Egypt played Sam some keys and my son Genesis was telling jokes the whole time. Pure music, singing in the room together while I was playing piano.”
