"Baby" is Marina's first single where she is not credited as Marina and the Diamonds, a stage name she had used on prior releases. It is included on her fourth studio album, Love + Fear. A version without Fonsi appears on the album's vinyl release.


Composition


Baby is composed in the key of C minor. Lyrically, the song deals with a love triangle, with the singer telling somebody that they are "already someone else's".

The song has a tempo of 117 beats per minute, and has a time signature of common time. It also features a complete descending circle of fifths, which propels the music forward throughout the circle of fifths and back to C minor.


Promotion


On 29 October 2018, the group announced the release on Twitter and shared its cover art.[2] On 2 November 2018, the group performed on BBC Two's Strictly Come Dancing: It Takes Two.


Critical reception


Mike Wass of Idolator called the preview of the song a "sultry banger that already sounds like a hit", saying Marina "coos" the line "But I'm already someone else's baby" over Clean Bandit's "seductive, Latin-tinged house beats".[3] Billboard labelled "Baby" a "flamenco-infused track", opining that Fonsi's verse in Spanish provides it with a "distinctive Latin flare".[4]


Music video


Clean Bandit also released the video on YouTube on 2 November 2018.[5] The video features Fonsi, Marina, Grace Chatto, and Australian singer Starley.[6] Chatto portrays an unnamed bride who marries Fonsi's character as it is revealed via flashbacks that she had a thwarted relationship with another woman — now a wedding guest — while attending summer camp.[7]
