Songfacts®:

  • The second single by British Pop singer Amelia Lily was produced by the hitmakers Xenomania, who were also responsible for her debut release, "You Bring Me Joy." "There is a lot more attitude in there and it's a lot darker," Lily told Yahoo about the song. The tune was premiered on BBC Radio 1 on November 1, 2012.
  • Regarding the song's music promo, Amelia told Yahoo: "The video is completely different to the first one and a lot of it was all my ideas so I'm excited. We shot it in East London where a scene from The Dark Knight was filmed. It was a very dark and dingy place but it was a very effective place too."
