The single was certified platinum in Australia in December 2019.

Band member Sam Hales said "When we first recorded this song it wasn't even a dance song. The song was being super stubborn and I told it, 'If you don't want to get on the bus and go to the beach with everyone else then you can stay at home.' But then we put a 4x4 dance pattern in the song and it became something else entirely."{{cite web|url=https://lifewithoutandy.com/news/music/track-by-track-the-jungle-giants-take-us-through-their-new-album-quiet-ferocity/|title= Track-By-Track: The Jungle Giants Take Us Through Their New Album, 'Quiet Ferocity'|publisher=Life Without Andy|date=July 2017 |access-date=20 June 2019}}
