Milo Cordell of Big Pink described this to Spin magazine as, "kind of like a desperate love song."
The lyric, "I will be loved or die trying" is a nod to the title of 50 Cent's debut album, Get Rich or Die Trying.
The drum break is by the record's producer Paul Wentworth, who is a member of Nottingham-based five piece The Amber Herd.
