"Drinkee" is the debut single by American musical duo Sofi Tukker. It was released independently in October 2015,[1] and re-released by Ultra Records in April 2016.[2]
The song is inspired by the poem "Relógio" by Brazilian poet Chacal. The lyrics are sung in the original language of Portuguese. According to vocalist Sophie Hawley-Weld, "It doesn't matter whether or not you can understand Portuguese. The point of "Drinkee" isn't the meaning; the point is the nonsense." In the song, Hawley-Weld's voice fuses together with layered underlying sounds that include distorted electric guitar, a strong bass line, bongos and cowbells.[3] The song was nominated for a Grammy Award for Best Dance Recording at the 59th ceremony.
