[edit]Composition[]

Beginning with a melodic guitar-driven introduction, "We'll Be Coming Back" transitions into a "hard electro synth-fuelled chorus" featuring Example's vocals.[4]

[edit]Music video[]

Filmed in the Hollywood Hills in Los Angeles, California in June 2012,[5] the music video for "We'll Be Coming Back" stars Harris and Example as robbers. After burying what they've stolen, the two return at a later time to retrieve the goods to find that a female officer who had been tracking them has gotten to it first, leaving behind her badge as evidence.[1] In addition to the robbery, the video features a series of high-speed car chases and police confrontations.

Speaking to Capital in June 2012, Harris stated that they both wanted to "look cool" in the music video for "We'll Be Coming Back," and went on to say of the video premise: "we've got flash cars and it's the old two day trip to LA option."[6] With Example driving a Porsche and Harris driving aFerrari, several expensive cars were damaged during the filming of the video.[7] It was directed by Iranian film and documentary-maker Saman Keshavarz.[8] The video for "We'll Be Coming Back" premiered on 6 July 2012.

[edit]Critical reception[]

The song has been called the "soundtrack to the summer" by Music-news.com,[4] and a "summer anthem" by the Westmeath Examiner.[9] Digital Spygave the track a mixed review, describing it as "mildly enjoyable" but "a little stale."[10]

[edit]Remixes[]

"We'll Be Coming Back" has been remixed by several producers and DJ's, including Jacob Plant, Killsonik, Michael Woods, and R3hab.[4] The mix by Killsonik fuses dubstep with the original.[11]R3hab created two remixes of the song, each being played for EDC NYC and EDC Las Vegas.
