The Knocks, Carly Rae Jepsen "Love Me Like That" Shared From '55'

The track is another groovy and intoxicating tune from The Knocks that fits in with the 1980s nostalgia that seeps throughout their album.

The new single has the infectious groove you expect from a Knocks track with shimmering synths and a catchy guitar riff.

Carly Rae's voice glides over the New York City duo's production as she longs for a better love from her partner.

"I hear thunder in the distance / And it hits me in an instant / Crashing through my heart and I'm blown apart / You don't love me like that (you don't love me like that) / Yeah, I hear thunder in the distance," she coos.

The relationship between the two started when The Knocks did one of their unofficial bootlegs for a Carly Rae song, "All That," which they do all the time and she loved it so much that it became official.

Playing on that, "we had an idea for a song that we thought she would sound perfectly on, so we cold called her about collaborating and she was into it, " the duo tell Elle. "We flew out to LA that week and recorded it together."

This is the latest single to emerge from their upcoming album 55. It will be released on March 4 via Big Beat Records. Fans can pre-order the album on iTunes and get six songs as instant grat downloads.
