He called the gentle and lush cut “a song I wrote about a time I spent at the karaoke bar until 5 a.m..” Clay added: “Karaoke was super hit or missed for me because it all depends on the people who tend to perform and pick the good songs. This particular night was perfect. The music was perfect, the drinks were flowing, and everyone lost their time altogether. The energy and supersonics of the song were something I really wanted to match the feeling of one of those nights.”
