Watch: John Legend & Norah Jones Rock VEVO Studios with ‘Summertime Blue’ Live

The collaboration we didn’t know we needed, John Legend and Norah Jones joined forces for the wistful, jazzy new song ‘Summertime Blue.’

Co-produced by Jones and Gregg Wattenberg, the piano-driven ballad – which arrived to digital shelves on Friday (June 27) – got its introductory live treatment via a recent stop by the GRAMMY winners to VEVO Studios.

“Summertime, summertimе, summertime, it’s true / I’m still thinking of you / Left you in a daydream / Now you’re washing over me,” they sing over the tune’s melancholic chorus.

A match made in jazz heaven, John spoke glowingly of the new song and the chance to finally work with Jones.

“Ah, what a perfect way to start the summer! I’m so honored to be part of this beautiful record with Norah,” said Legend. “Her voice, soul and musicianship, her graceful presence, are all undeniable. I’ve been a fan for so long. I’m so glad we could finally collaborate.”
