Put a hold on those Drake memes - although it's pretty hilarious making fun of the rapper's dance moves in the music video for "Hotline Bling," why don't you listen to this tropic-cool cover by Disclosure and Sam Smith instead?

"[...] The 'Latch' tandem was tasked with picking a song to cover. Their choice: Drake's latest smash single 'Hotline Bling,' the rapper's moody ode to booty calls.

It's bite-your-bottom-lip, text your best friend a string of flame emoji good, particularly when the first wave of backup vocals wash over you like warm ocean water."
Not only that, but Sam Smith's vocals in this track is just sublime. Let Billboard aptly explain: "Sam Smith continues to demonstrate his vocal surgery hasn't diminished an ounce of his performance power."
