Songfacts®:

  • This 60's soul-tinged break-up number was the third single off the album Wild Young Hearts by the Noisettes. The single was self produced and written by the London based trio.
  • The video directed by Paul Gore was filmed at the derelict dancehall at Alexandra Palace in London. It features a performance by the band complete with classic Motown-like back-up singers and a string quartet.
  • The song went viral on TikTok thanks to a "To the guy/girl..." meme. It involves the user uploading throwback videos of vacation or festival hookups that they remember fondly. Some add a twist by holding up a baby or a toddler as they mouth the lyrics, revealing their past flings turned into children.
  • This soundtracked "Chance Encounters," the first episode of the 2021 Netflix supernatural psychological thriller series Behind Her Eyes, which premiered on February 17, 2021.
