In a November 9, 2017 interview with Billboard, Budin explained how he came up with this song and his involvement with Luciana: "Within only a few days of being in contact with Luciana, we were throwing ideas at one another and I came across the topline for 'X With U.' It was at that exact moment that I knew exactly what I wanted to do with the soundtrack. It took some time to get the song sounding the way it is now. I actually wrote five different versions of it! But I'm glad it ended up the way it did because it's an absolute corker."
Luciana adds that the song was based on a true story, telling Billboard, "I wrote 'X with U' after I'd heard a girl at a club say to her friend in the toilet that she should have spent the night with a guy she had met earlier, she should have gone with her instincts and just hung out with him so that they could've enjoyed each other. I loved the way it sounded and it made think of all of the regrets we accumulate in life. It's so much better to regret the things you have done rather than the things you didn't. 'X' can stand for anything, wherever your imagination and inclination take you."[3]
