About the track, Dom Dolla said that the song is inspired from a conversation he had with his friends who had experienced bad dates. Dolla said "I recorded it and heavily affected my vocals, but felt it needed a strong female performance, so I reached out to my good pal Caitlin Stubbs and asked if she was keen to re-perform the vocal, her voice is fantastic and suits the record so well… I even left some crumbs of my vocal in there, too." [2] [1]

The song was shorted listed for Best Single at the 2025 Rolling Stone Australia Awards. [3]

At the 2025 Electronic Dance Music Awards, the song was nominated for Dance Song of the Year, Tech House Song of the Year and won House Song of the Year. [4]

Critical reception

Rachel Narozniak from Beat Portal said "The single hits like a shot of pure adrenaline; it's saucy, it's empowering, it's unequivocally for the girls." [5]
