Background
editWhen talking about the song, Becky Hill said, "'Better Off Without You' is that perfect break up song. Starting the year with those New Year, new me feels, it's your new self love anthem of 2020! Written about a break up of my own, Better Off Without You was a song that I listened to over the course of 2019 that helped me through some really dark times. I can't wait to share this bit of personal therapy with others and watch the song take on a life of its own."[3]
