Background and composition

"Crazy What Love Can Do" is a house and pop song, which crosses over into electronic dance music, with piano chords and "soaring" vocals from Becky Hill and Ella Henderson.[1][2][3] The song follows a structure that builds and layers, beginning with vocals then claps and "catchy piano chords".[3] The lyrics centre on the feelings and empowerment that love and friendship can evoke.[2] Hill and Guetta previously collaborated on the 2021 song "Remember" which was streamed over 150 million times[2] and topped the UK Dance Singles chart,[4] as well as appearing at number 3 on the UK Singles Chart,[5] Irish Singles Chart[6] and Dutch Top 40.[7]

The three artists shared their views on the single. Guetta said "This to me is a summer dance record, and I think it spreads an important message of love and just how powerful it is. I really enjoyed working once again with Becky and working with Ella for the first time was also very exciting. It was a pleasure to work with both these incredible artists."[2] Hill took the opportunity to praise the song's other producers (Riley and Harvey), whilst also noting that it was a shame "that women don't duet together more regularly". Speaking about how both she and Henderson became involved, Hill said "I fell in love with this record the moment I heard it... I knew Ella and I would sound perfect together." Henderson added "This one has been cooking up in the oven for a while so finally letting the world hear it means so much!"[2] EDM Tunes's Matt Seirra compared "Crazy What Love Can Do" to earlier songs by Italian house producers Meduza and English house duo Goodboys.[3]

Guetta also appears in the video as a detective investigating their disappearance.[20] Speaking about the music video, Henderson compared it to a Thelma & Louise film.
