Band member Sam Hales said that the following song was written about the uncontrollable, impressionable, unforgivable Tahlia Crossley: "I'll never forget the day I wrote this song. I always test out a song by dancing to it and when this song appeared to me out of nowhere it made me dance so hard. I saved it 19 times in different folders on my computer because I was scared I was going to lose it."[3]

Tom Williams from Music Feeds said the song is "built around four-to-the-floor beats, bright guitars and some super-smooth hooks."[4]

On 6 April 2018, a Northeast Party House remix was released.[5]
