Background
editTalking about the song, Templeman said, "'Happiness…' is the most colourful sugary disco-pop song I've put out so far. It came about so easily one day in the studio with Justin from The Vaccines and his right-hand man Will and by the end of the day we knew we had something special on our hands." He also talked about the coronavirus crisis, "It's a tough time for everyone right now so hope this brings a little happiness into people's lives!" He wrote the song in the summer of 2019 and when he spoke to Jack Saunders upon its first play, he described the song as 'amazingly funky', "It was summertime so we wanted to write something that was a bit of a banger, basically."[1][2]
