Background


The song originally debuted at 2018 iHeartRadio Music Festival.[3] Kygo stated in a press release he recorded it in Los Angeles before the Summer, explaining: "I discovered Cavazza through Avicii's music and have been a big fan ever since, We talked a lot about how much Avicii's music has meant to us".[4]


Content


"Happy Now" is believed to be his tribute to the late Avicii.[5] Will Heffernan of Celebmix wrote that has "classic Kygo sounds and a lyrical message of loss".[6] It is written in the key of A major, with a tempo of 118 beats per minute.[7]


Critical reception


Karlie Powell of Your EDM commented that it "sound[s] like a little glimmer of happiness, though it’s a tinge bittersweet. Allow it to move your emotions with every play through".[8]


Music video


An accompanying video was released on 1 December 2018. It notably marks the first time Kygo has starred in his own music video where he takes the viewer to an inside look of his own family and friends, in Norway where grew up.[9]
