Background


In an interview with Billboard magazine, lead singer John O'Callaghan revealed he began working on the song in January 2020. The song was co-written by Andrew Goldstein.[3] The track runs at 105 BPM and is in the key of C major.[6]

"It came together so naturally and organically, we didn’t really overthink anything. It took us about three-and-a-half, four hours and I remember getting back into the car and listening to the demo and having the chills and feeling like, 'Wow! Did we accidentally do something really cool?'"[3]

On June 4, 2021, they released a piano version of the song with the indie pop trio Shaed.[7] On July 23, 2021, a remix to the song was released digitally.[8]


Music video


The music video premiered on March 19, 2021. It was directed by Angela Kohler. The music video shows colorful visual with each band member trying to get themselves out of peculiar situations with commonly sticky objects such as honey, glue, lollipops, rubber bands and tape. The visual soon comes to a close as the band look on while covered in hundreds of little white feathers.[1]
