"Here with Me" is a song by American DJ Marshmello, featuring Scottish synthpop band Chvrches. It was released on March 8, 2019[1] alongside an animated lyric video. The official music video was released on April 10, 2019.

Composition

"Here with Me" is composed in E major. The song was called reminiscent of Marshmello's earlier electronic production work, with the opening being "markedly restrained" that "provides a rare chance for him to experiment with guitars."[2] The instrumentation was also described as "acoustic guitars and EDM beats".[3]

Promotion

Along with announcing the song, Marshmello posted a 19-second snippet of the song, with Your EDM saying that the collaboration sounds more like Marshmello's previous singles with vocalists instead of his Joytime album series material.[4] On April 3, 2019, Marshmello and Chvrches gave a live performance of "Here with Me" on Jimmy Kimmel Live!.

Critical reception

Stereogum called it "standard-issue dance-pop fluff, with a bit more of an emotional pull to it thanks to Mayberry's performance. It's the sort of song that you might forget about immediately after hearing."[5]

Chart performance

"Here with Me" became Marshmello's fourth number one (and his seventh top ten) and Chvrches' first on Billboards Dance/Mix Show Airplay chart. It is also the highest position peak for Chvrches on a Billboard airplay chart to date.[6] It also reached the top twenty in Canada.[7] It peaked at number nine on the UK Singles Chart. It charted at number 31 on the Billboard Hot 100 becoming Chvrches' first entry on the chart & their highest charting single in the country.[8]
