Background and composition


The song marks the singer's first release in nearly three years. The song release was accompanied by an open letter, in which Capaldi admits to being nervous about the release, saying, "it could be the beginning of a beautiful chapter in my life, or the very public downward spiral that, let's face it, I'm probably due".[2] According to Capaldi, the song deals with a break-up he experienced the year prior and the "post-life" of his ex he was only able to witness through social media.[3]

The song was described as an "80s-synth inspired track" as well as a "change of pace" in sound for the singer.[4] The 1975's "Somebody Else" inspired the production of the track.[5]


Music video


The music video was released on 9 September 2022 and was directed by Louis Bhose, who had previously directed the music video for Grace.[6] It was filmed at Pikes Hotel in Ibiza. The video pays homage to Wham!'s "Club Tropicana". About the video, Bhose explained, "You hear a sad song and you expect a sad video. There's catharsis in that. But to go in the other direction completely felt more in line with the Lewis that walked onstage at Glastonbury in full Noel Gallagher getup".[7]
