The song was written by Emma Bertilsson, Fredrik Haggstam, John Newman, Litens Anton Nilsson and Nirob Islam. Background Newman was ready to quit when "Olé" failed to chart back in 2016, he said, "I was on the phone to my manager and I was saying 'I want to give up. I'm done'. I wasn't releasing the kind of music I should have been and there were too many chefs in the kitchen. I was so sick of it." He describes the song as a return to 'sing-along bangers', he also said, "I never want to experience the feeling of having a flop again. I have to reconnect with people." The song then failed to chart in the UK. Track listing Personnel Credits adapted from Tidal.

Notable quotes

“Pleasant feeling is impermanent, conditioned, dependently-arisen, bound to decay, to vanish, to fade away, to cease—and so too are painful feeling and neutral feeling. So anyone who, on experiencing a pleasant feeling, thinks: "This is my self", must, at the cessation of that pleasant feeling, think: "My self has gone!"”
— Gautama Buddha, Digha Nikaya, M. Walshe, trans. (1987), Sutta 15 (Mahanidana Sutta), verse 29, p. 227
“You only get one life so you might as well feel all the feelings.”
— Greta Gerwig in "Greta Gerwig gets real" Dazed (August 27, 2015)
“Within structures defined by profit, by linear power, by institutional dehumanization, our feelings were not meant to survive. Kept around as unavoidable adjuncts or pleasant pastimes, feelings were meant to kneel to thought as we were meant to kneel to men. But women have survived.”
— Audre Lorde, "Poetry Is Not a Luxury" (1985),
“Your eyes can deceive you. Don't trust them. Stretch out with your feelings!”
— Obi-Wan Kenobi, interpreted by Alec Guinness in the film Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope (1977), written by George Lucas.
“He thought as a sage, though he felt as a man.”
— James Beattie, The Hermit, line 8.
“Wenn ihr's nicht fühlt ihr werdet's nicht erjagen.”
— You'll never attain it unless you know the feeling.
