Björk announced the song's release date on her social media on 14 September 2022, describing it as "a meditation about us as lovers walking around this world."[3] Featuring trombone played by Bergur Þorrison and timpani by Soraya Nayyar (with both parts arranged by Björk), the track contains elements of jazz and reggaeton.[4] The track also features percussion from Reykjavík trio Sideproject who were instructed to "channel the lurid sounds of Star Wars' Mos Eisley cantina band."[5]
The music video was also released on 14 September 2022, and was directed by Nick Knight,[1] whom Björk worked with on her "Pagan Poetry" video in 2001 and Homogenic album cover in 1997.[6]
