Background and release

The song was written by Carpenter, Julia Michaels, JP Saxe and John Ryan in New York on Summer 2021.[2] The first stage of the song's songwriting was sampling a Tequila bottle and playing percussion with pencils.[3] The singer says "We weren't taking ourselves too seriously making it, which really reflects the energy of the song".[3]

On January 1, Carpenter shared a snippet of the song's chorus, enticing new music.[4] On The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, Carpenter revealed the song's name.[5] On February 3, Carpenter finally revealed the single's cover art and release date.[6] The song was released on February 18, along with its music video.[1][7]
