Beyonce and Jay Z celebrated their 7th wedding anniversary over the weekend, and because nothing says celebration like mixing a little business with pleasure, she released a new song to mark the occasion - on her husband’s brand new streaming service, Tidal.

The song is called “Die with You” and is a beautiful love ballad about finding the meaning of life in the arms of that special someone. It comes with a video, which you will find embedded below.

“Die with You” was released exclusively on Tidal, and leaked online, popping up all over YouTube in a matter of minutes. Tidal aims to offer artists more freedom and higher revenue for their music, and was conceived as a response to Spotify, which, apparently, isn’t paying them enough.

The video shows Beyonce at the piano, looking relaxed in an inverted baseball cap, ponytails and minimal makeup, singing and looking lovingly into the camera. She isn’t just trying to charm the pants off the viewer, though: as the video ends, the person holding the camera appears briefly in view. It’s Jay.

So, while Beyonce didn’t exactly say that the video was dedicated to him on their anniversary, the release date is a dead giveaway.
