AceShowbiz - Luckily, fans don't have to wait until Charlie Puth releases his debut album later this month to hear his anticipated collaboration with Selena Gomez. The song titled "We Don't Talk Anymore" unexpectedly surfaced online in its entirety over the weekend.
On the mid-tempo R&B-tinged tune, Puth and Gomez's vocals blend perfectly as they sing about an ex they can't seem to move on from. "I overdosed, should've known your love was a game/ Now I can't get you out of my brain/ Oh, it's such a shame," they sing and add in the chorus, "We don't talk anymore like we used to do/ We don't love anymore, what was all of it for?"
In a recent interview, Puth revealed that "We Don't Talk Anymore" was inspired by a friend's failed relationship. Of why he wanted Gomez to sing on it, he explained, "I met up with Selena, and she went through a very public relationship, on and off, and she could just relate to the song and the lyrical sentiment. I was playing the song for her, and she just started singing the second verse. I got chills. I was like, 'Oh my gosh, that sounds so real. You need to sing on it.' And she said yes."
Puth's "Nine Track Mind" album is due out on January 29 through Atlantic Records. The project will also include previously-released singles like "One Call Away" and the Meghan Trainor-assisted "Marvin Gaye".
