Swedish House Mafia premiere ‘Don’t You Worry Child’ at Milton Keynes Bowl

“We need to stop to breathe it in a little bit, ‘cuz everything went so fast… so big.” said Sebastian Ingrosso, hours before Swedish House Mafia would play their final UK show at Milton Keynes Bowl. The venue packed with 60,000 fans has been the Swedes’ biggest show since selling out Madison Square Garden, and like their NYC affair, they have brought a brand new track. In December, it was “Greyhound,” tonight, it was the highly anticipated “Don’t You Worry Child.” Months back, the trio spoke to MTV of a new single that would make grown men cry, and after missing its proposed Coachella-debut, has finally been premiered across the pond. Take a listen to the live rip and let us know what you think of Swedish House Mafia’s latest — and apparently final – single.

    not so great

  5. HankoftheHill says:

    Good, they can take their terrible fan base with them too. Tired of this sappy vocal radio friendly EDM bullshit, stop this mainstream trend.

    I was there last night and genuinely welled up listening to this for the first time, they werent wrong when they said this single could make grown men cry!

  10. I know it’s commercial, but in my opinion; it’s a perfect ending. I’m sure this will appeal to a wider audience than the almighty “One”. It’s more emotional and progressive than “Save The World Tonight”, although I did expect it to be more emotional, but I like it as is. The take off is better than “Miami 2 Ibiza”, which in my opinion had the sickest takeoff up till now. Anticipating the release of this track, so I can listen to those tiny details and judge if this track tops one of my all-time house music favorites “Leave the world behind”, which is undoubtedly the best SHM track ever. The Milton Keynes venue was a proper ending, to one of the most influential house music groups in recent years. What an amazing end to an even more amazing journey!

    Maybe it’s got a whole other mystique when they play it live, but I just feel like I want more out of it when listening. Still a decent track, I’ll definitely give it time to grow on me but just a bit underwhelmed.

  12. JUPP says:

    I WAS THERE. IT WAS AMAZING. BEST SHOW IN THE ENTIRE WORLD.

  13. derF says:

  14. AxwellOfficial says:

    Release date TBA soon! ;)

  15. Holly says:

    the show was amazing, the song is awesome, the whole thing was beautiful and im so happy i got to be apart of it!!!

  16. JUPP says:

    haha, terrible fan base or not, they make music which makes people happy, and that is by far the greatest thing an artist can do

  17. Anonymous says:

    Hahahaha yeah totally

    Decent song overall nothing special, I don’t think people would care that much if it wasn’t their “last track”

  18. fredmau5 says:

    you sir, are an idiot

  19. tonynuhgooyen says:

    damn. i know its not their normal tune that you ‘bro-out’ to but its still pretty good!

    Perhaps I’m missing something but what’s the big deal about SHM breaking up? I like their music and have a ton of respect and admiration for what they’ve been able to accomplish as a group in terms of helping to put house music “on the map” so spare me the “STFU HATER LOL SHM RUL3ZZzzZZz” comments…but what’s the big deal? Seb’s not retiring, Ax isn’t retiring and Steve isn’t retiring. All their individual sets are pretty much their group SHM sets these days. So you won’t get to see all 3 on stage together…2 waving and clapping their hands while one person mans the knobs…so what? The music coming out of the speakers is what matters.

    Further, it’s not as if their best production work came through SHM…on the contrary, their individual work is better (IMO of course) than their SHM work since they don’t need to worry so much about clashing styles…they can each do their own thing.

    Again maybe i

    Ahhh release it soon!

    Exactly I said this same thing last week, SHM breaking up is not a big deal. I like Axwell by himself and Ingrosso and Agnello have made great tracks together. I think the people who are upset about them breaking up probably didn’t know they existed before 2010. In fact DA just posted a sick track from Axwell which is much better than this.

    This song is good and it will appeal to there fan base as well as the radio. But for me it is predictable. Also, I thought we were supposed to dance to dance music , not sing and jump up and down.

    these underground people can be so annoying, fuck… if you dont like them, simply ignore

  24. It all makes sense now, thanks for enlightening me.

  25. I’ve never experienced a SHM show, but it’s obvious that having shows individually won’t be as fancy as the sets they had together. When it comes to act, production and visuals, which I can only assume is pretty kickass at SHM gigs, which their individual shows can’t come close to. Furthermore, people don’t go to large events just hear some music coming out of the spears, they for for the overall experience.

    And I do agree that the music they make individually is a lot better than what they’ve made together, with the exception of “Leave The World Behind”. That’s because with the SHM moniker, they have to appeal to a wider audience than just the EDM community, and that’s why it might not seem the tunes are comming from the heart.

  26. kb says:

    It is exactly bc of the underground people that you are able to enjoy SHM at all ;) and if you stay around long enough you’ll become us as well.

  27. kb says:

    I agree w/everything you said but if the music is good , you don’t need massive production

    Same old SHM/Main Room House, Beats, break, pianos, vocals, drop. It’s all gone very stale. Their ‘break up’ was inevitable, hopefully they’ll come back down the line with something fresh. http://www.twitter.com/SimonReddyMusic

    if this is there “last” song, then no wonder these guys wanna break up…
