Zelmerlöw also released a bilingual English/French version titled "Should've Gone Home (Je ne suis qu'un homme)" aimed at French-speaking markets. That single charted on SNEP, the official French Singles Chart.
Zelmerlöw performed the song from the roof of a building next to the Liseberg crowd at the Lotta på Liseberg, creating both a feeling of "isolation" and intimacy.[4]
The music video, which was directed by Mikeadelica, was released on 16 September 2015 after being "unlocked" by the fans via streaming of the song online platforms. It features a backwards story of Zelmerlöw going to tell his girlfriend about his cheating.[5]
