Background

Ingrosso said the pair wrote the song about both of their exes when they were both going through "the stage you hear in the song". He also called it a "more chill" pop song and "completely different" to his and Sandman's previous collaboration "Tror du att han bryr sig".[3]

Critical reception

Anders Nunstedt of Expressen said the song begins as if it were "entirely Ingrosso's. But when Sandman steps into the electronically soulful sound image, something happens." Nunstedt complimented the duo's chemistry and said they should "come up with a band name for their side project" and take their production "further".[4]
