David Guetta is back at it, proving why he remains an unstoppable force in dance music. His latest hit, “When We Were Young (The Logical Song),” featuring the perpetually captivating Kim Petras, twines the past with the present for a high-energy euphoria. And with nearly 60 million global streams and a viral track on TikTok, it’s already making serious waves.
Based on a reworked interpolation of Supertramp’s “The Logical Song,” Guetta’s cut shoots that nostalgic melody into futuristic rave-ready banger territory. The vocal delivery from Kim Petras drips with wistfulness as she recalls the fleeting innocence of youth riding the track’s electric beats. With its infectious energy, the song has made its way up various charts, breaking into the top 40 in four markets (the Netherlands, Belgium, France, and Luxembourg), an undeniable testament to its global reach.
Further building on the momentum, rising German producer BENNETT has put his signature stamp on a thunderous remix, amplifying the intensity with booming snares, cinematic orchestral flourishes interspersed with hypnotic winds, and a new layer to Petras’ already euphoric vocals. His new rework follows a high-octane remix from Steve Aoki and KAAZE.
David Guetta still sets the gold standard for feel-good anthems, from jammed festival stages to viral dance challenges. Whether you’re recalling the past or dancing into the future, “When We Were Young (The Logical Song)” is a nostalgic thrill ride that doesn’t want to put on the brakes.
