Background

In an interview with the Official Charts Company, Snakehips member Ollie Lee explained the song: "It's not about one specific story, I suppose it's really just about years of bad nights out... living in London!"[2]

When asked about how the collaboration came about, Lee continued, "I have no idea to be honest with you. We made the beat to the song last year and we really wanted Tinashe and Chance on the song. Honestly, they were our first choices for the track – they were two relatively new acts at the time and we both loved what they were doing. We just sent them the song and they both said they liked it. We couldn't believe that they'd even heard of us. I still can't believe it all worked out actually. The whole thing is sort of ridiculous..."[2]
