Songfacts®:

  • Guitarist Sam Macintyre recalled the story of the song to Kerrang: "It came from me sitting on my sofa in Scotland, halfway through a bottle of red wine when I started singing and playing really naturally. I didn't quite know what I was singing, so we worked together to make something from it."

    Vocalist Becca MacIntyre added: "I had goosebumps when Sam came in with this song. It was like my blood was boiling, but in a good way. I fell in love with it and I was so excited. It's me saying, 'C'mon, Becca, push yourself: you can do better, create new limits!' I can't just do the same things I did a few years ago. That's helped me grow. I'm a woman now. It's a total confidence thing; from the experiences I've gone through and being cool with who I am.'"
