Rising pop artist RAYE has delivered their collaboration with iconic composer Hans Zimmer.

“Mother Nature” was written for BBC’s nature documentary series Planet Earth III which made its premiere earlier this month. The song, which was produced by Russell Emanuel, also includes additional vocals from Bastille’s Dan Smith.

RAYE said this about the new song, which is available on digital services right now:

"I am a Planet Earth stan, I’ve watched religiously for years, so having this opportunity open for me doesn’t even feel real. David Attenborough and Hans Zimmer are two of my heroes, to be able to compose a song with Hans is BEYOND a wildest dream, and then to hear Sir David narrate over and in between my voice actually brings tears to my eyes. To be able to contribute in my small way to this massively important and equally beautiful documentary series is an honour and a moment I will always cherish.”

Hans Zimmer also said:

“Creating scores for any of the BBC's Natural History series is always an honor for me as there are no more epic stories than those occurring naturally every day in our own planet’s ecosystem. For ‘Planet Earth III’ it’s a further privilege to bring the incredible world class talents of Bastille and RAYE to create both a wonderful soundscape for the series, and the beautiful, poignant track, ‘Mother Nature.’”
