"Remind Me to Forget" is a song recorded by Norwegian record producer
Release and composition
On 8 March 2018, a short clip of the song first surfaced on the internet.[2] On 10 March 2018, Kygo announced the song on Instagram and Facebook with a series of promotional photos.[3] "Remind Me to Forget" is a midtempo electro, tropical house and R&B track about "learning to let go of a love lost".[4][5]
Critical reception
The song was well received by music critics. Shanté Honeycutt of Billboard noted the song's potential to become "a summer dance jam", regarding it as a memorable song despite the title, writing: "Kygo's lighthearted production is a match for Miguel's powerhouse vocals".[6] Kevin Goddard of HotNewHipHop called the song "another strong addition to both artist's growing catalog of hits", writing that it features an "uptempo and infectious dance-friendly production from Kygo", on which "Miguel shows off his vocals".[7] Similarly, Essence's Rachaell Davis wrote that "the song features Miguel delivering his signature vocals over an infectious beat".[5] Artistdirect deemed the song a mixture of Kygo's "upbeat tropical house sound" and "Miguel's seductive and sultry vocals", resulting in "an endlessly-playable melody".[8] Rap-Up described the collaboration as "dance floor-ready", on which Miguel's "soothing" vocals are backed by "Kygo's melodic, pulsing instrumental".[9] Karlie Powell of Your EDM opined that the song "bridges the gap between EDM and mainstream", as the two artists "play off each other's styles for a straight up unforgettable result".[10]
Music video
The Colin Tilley-directed music video for "Remind Me to Forget" was released on 6 May 2018 on Kygo's official YouTube channel. It features Miguel, a piano-playing Kygo, and a female ballerina performing in separate rooms of a house during some kind of cataclysm, with walls and furnishings being destroyed by unseen forces.[11]
Live performances
On 14 May 2018, Kygo and Miguel performed the song live on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon.[12][13]
