• Here, Jade Bird is "alone in the middle of the night" picking the bones of a toxic relationship. Her lover is putting no effort into the romance, leaving the singer feeling "completely drenched."
• Jade Bird recorded the song for her second album, Different Kinds Of Light. She laid down the record at Nashville's famed RCA Studio A with producer Dave Cobb, known for his work with Jason Isbell, Chris Stapleton and Brandi Carlile, and also for the A Star Is Born soundtrack.
• Jade Bird wrote and recorded this soaring pop-rock track two days before she had to fly back to England from Nashville. She'd heard stories about the last song you write for a record being the best, so she was searching for that in the vocal booth that evening. Bird told Apple Music she was hammering away on a riff when Cobb popped his head in and told her, "Oh, you really have to do something with that. It's a great riff."
  
  Encouraged, she quickly completed the song and sent it to him two hours later on a voice memo. Before Bird knew it, Cobb had brought all the musicians back in, and they raced through and tracked her favorite track on Different Kinds Of Light.
• Bird first encountered Dave Cobb after working with his cousin, the country singer-songwriter Brent Cobb. Back in 2017, the then-little-known Bird opened some UK shows for Brent Cobb. The two became good friends and in 2019 recorded the duet "Feet Off The Ground."
