From today's featured article  Meghan Trainor performing "Like I'm Gonna Lose You" "Like I'm Gonna Lose You" is a song by American singer-songwriter Meghan Trainor (pictured) from her debut major-label studio album Title (2015), featuring guest vocals from singer John Legend. Trainor wrote the song with Justin Weaver and Caitlyn Smith, and produced it with Chris Gelbuda. Epic Records released it as the album's fourth single on June 23, 2015. A soul love ballad, "Like I'm Gonna Lose You" is about savoring moments spent with loved ones and not taking them for granted. Critics praised Trainor's vocals and the song's composition, but some thought its subdued style did not suit her. It reached number one in Australia, New Zealand, and Poland, and number eight in the US. It was certified 4× Platinum in the US and 5× Platinum in Australia and Canada. The music video depicts Trainor singing on a rainy night while people in diverse relationships interact with loved ones. Trainor performed the song on television shows and her concert tours.
