Talking about the song and the collaboration, Henderson said, "This song has always been so special to me that I kept going back to it. Tom and I have been friends for years, I love his voice and I’m so happy we got to do this together." Grennan said, "When Ella hit me up and played me this song and then asked me to join her on it, I was absolutely buzzin’. Ella is a good mate of mine and it's so sick to finally get to sing together!"{{cite web|url=https://celebmix.com/ella-henderson-tom-grennan-drop-lets-go-home-together-video/|title=Ella Henderson & Tom Grennan drop 'Let's Go Home Together' video|website=celebmix.com|accessdate=19 April 2021|archive-date=21 April 2021|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210421141535/https://celebmix.com/ella-henderson-tom-grennan-drop-lets-go-home-together-video/|url-status=live}}
