Background

edit

The song is a "sweet hooky pop ballad" about regret and moving on before further heartbreak ensues.[1] It features "handclaps, a groove and the type of vibe that should break hearts all over the globe".[2][3] The song was announced on May 20, 2021, one day prior to the release of the song, in which a snippet of the song would be able to be heard if the song is pre-saved.[4]

A lyric video was published to the Jonas Brothers YouTube channel on the same day as its release.[5]

Music video

edit

The official music video of the song, directed by Christian Breslauer was released to Marshmello's YouTube channel on May 24, 2021.[6] He and the Jonas Brothers perform in a subway and on a roof at night. The visuals open with Nick from the brother band sitting alone on a subway train before he joins his bandmates/brothers and Marshmello on the subway platform and later on a roof.[7]

Live performances

edit

Marshmello and the Jonas Brothers performed the song at the 2021 Billboard Music Awards on May 23, 2021, two days after the song's release.[8] The group also performed "Sucker", "Only Human", "Remember This", and "What a Man Gotta Do".[9]

The Jonas Brothers performed the song at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas, on November 24, 2022—American Thanksgiving Day—at the halftime of the Dallas Cowboys’ NFL Thanksgiving game against the New York Giants, alongside other songs of theirs.[10]

In other media

edit

The song is often played on the PA system at Citizens Bank Park, the home of Major League Baseball’s Philadelphia Phillies, whenever the Phillies lose a game; although at times, The Weeknd’s song “Save Your Tears” may be played instead. Most notably, when the Phillies were on the losing end of a no-hitter in Game 4 of the 2022 World Series, the song was played right after the final out was recorded.[11]
