This was the second single released from Scottish singer-songwriter Paolo Nutini's sophomore studio album Sunny Side Up.
This soulful ballad was written by Paolo Nutini and produced by the singer together with Ethan Johns (Kings Of Leon, Ryan Adams, Ray LaMontagne).
The song concerns Nutini's struggles with marijuana but it can be listened to from other perspectives. The singer explained on his website: "Its about my own conflict I had about marijuana but you can hear it as a song about relationships, compromising, having to deal with someone else's emotions. It's about bad habits and breaking up, but I wanted to keep it positive."
