A collaboration between John Mayer and Frank Ocean from Mayer's new album Paradise Valley has been unveiled. Listen to 'Wildfire'.

Clocking in at just one minute and 27 seconds, 'Wildfire' is a fairly simple affair that sees Ocean gorgously crooning about a summer romance over some cool and refreshing but sparse guitar and strings.

It makes for pretty lovely listening, especially for the the stunning line: "Back in Paris you told me that you were suicidal, it's not a vacation if I lose you to the Eiffel".

Speaking to Rolling Stone about their collaboration earlier this month, Mayer said: "Frank is such an interesting, deep, touched, wonderful guy. They don't make a lot of other Frank Oceans, and the guy is looking for another. And the way that his mind works is craving the same frequency that he's able to communicate on, and I think he's just searching for that kind of depth that he has inside of himself in someone else.

"He's fascinating to me. He's so great."

Paradise Valley will be released on 20 August, 2013.
