The song also topped the charts in several countries, such as Australia, Canada, Ireland, New Zealand, and the UK. It also won two Grammy Awards in 2015 for Best Pop Solo Performance and Best Remixed Recording, Non-Classical.

Nabil Elderkin directed the official music video of the song, which shows Legend and Teigen’s romantic moments at their house and during their trip to Italy. The video has more than 2.2 billion views on YouTube as of May 2023. Legend is not the only artist to recently celebrate 2 billion streams on Spotify.
