The stripped-back track release comes days after the highly-anticipated video for his and Taylor Swift's hit song debuted online.
In the passionate video, directed by Grant Singer, they traverse the St Pancras Renaissance London hotel before entering and smashing up one of its posh rooms.
One of the signature masks from Fifty Shades' adverts hangs from the front door of a hotel room occupied by Zayn, which Taylor enters and pours champagne before plucking white rose petals.
Then, the trashing begins: a plugged-in lamp pulled from its socket and hurled to the floor, mirrors smashed, pillows flung, various objects chucked hither and thither.
Released in December, the single was co-written by Taylor alongside Lena Dunham's boyfriend Jack Antonoff and LoveHate Thing scribe Sam Dew.
