This song is a post-breakup ballad featuring the voice of Elley Duhé, the Alabama-born, Los Angeles based singer whose debut single "Millennium" was released in 2016. Shortly after "Happy Now" was dropped, Duhé made available her debut six-track EP, Dragon Mentality, on RCA Records.
This zippy pop ballad was co-written by Zedd with: Swedish singer-songwriter Noonie Bao (Avicii vs Nicky Romero's "I Could Be The One," Clean Bandit's "Dust Clears"). Australian Sarah Aaron, who is a frequent collaborator of Zedd's. They co-wrote his hit tunes "Stay" and "The Middle" together. Her other credits include Demi Lovato's "Lonely," and Jessie Ware's "Alone." The Russian-German DJ produced the track himself.
Zedd's bright and bouncy synth melodies counterbalances the lyrics, which tell a bitter story of love lost. You're a world away Somewhere in the crowd In a foreign place Are you happy now? Since their breakup, Elley Duhé and her ex have grown very far apart. It was him who ended their relationship and she wonders whether with he is happy now with what he did.
