Songfacts®:

  • This garage-infused feel-good banger features vocals by Anne-Marie. It finds the English singer-songwriter regretting messing up a relationship as she implores her ex to bury the past, "come over" to her place and start all over again.
  • Tion Wayne raps a guest verse where he tells Anne-Marie he doesn't do "make-ups" and their relationship is over.
  • Anne-Marie is a frequent Rudimental collaborator, having previously supplied vocals on "Rumour Mill," "Love Ain't Just A Word," "Foreign World," "All That Love" and "Let Me Live."

    This is Tion Wayne's first hookup with the drum and bass band.
  • Charlie Robbins directed the music video, which shows some ravers taking a trip on the London underground to the deserted Printworks nightclub. Once they arrive, they take to the dance floor accompanied by bright strobe lights and smoke.

    Robbins' other video credits include clips for Naughty Boy ("Runnin' (Lose It All)," Emeli Sandé ("Garden") and Jessie Ware ("Alone").
  • This originated with an R&B idea that Rudimental, Anne-Marie and the other co-writer, L Devine (Rat Boy's "Be My Anime," Rudimental's "Mean That Much") had. The band's Piers Aggett told Apple Music: "It was like 110 BPM, or maybe slower, a little slow vibe. And then in the first lockdown, we sped it up and produced the garage beat on it."
