"Rockabye" is a song by English electronic group Clean Bandit, featuring Jamaican dancehall singer Sean Paul and English singer Anne-Marie. It was released on 21 October 2016 and was their first single since Neil Amin-Smith's departure from the group.[1] The song is about hardships of single mothers.[2]

Background

Clean Bandit announced the single on 21 October 2016, just two days after Neil Amin-Smith departed the band. Talking to Digital Spy, they said, "We've wanted to work with Sean Paul for a long, long while and it's a dream that we've managed to finally do it. Anne-Marie tells the story and welove her voice. We first heard her singing with Rudimental and we've met her at a million festivals over the past couple of years – it's been so lovely to collaborate together. [Band member] Jack [Patterson] wrote the song with Ina Wroldsen, who wrote the words about her son, which is why it rings so true for us and is so emotional and special."[3]

Commercial performance

On 11 November 2016, it reached number one in the United Kingdom, making it their second number one there after "Rather Be". It also became Clean Bandit's first number one single in Australia,[4] and additionally reached number one in Finland, Ireland and Switzerland.[5][6][7] It reached number two in Germany,[8] becoming Clean Bandit's highest-charting single there since "Real Love", and the third overall to chart in the former after "Rather Be" and "Real Love".
