Drax Project and Hailee Steinfeld version

The duet version featuring American actress and singer Hailee Steinfeld was released on 21 January 2019.[11]

Background

The band said that it "cross[ed] our minds while writing it as to how it might work as a duet -- with a female voice telling her side", and so they reached out to Steinfeld as they liked her songs "Starving" and "Let Me Go".[12] iHeartRadio noted how the song "tells the story of sleeping in after a wild night out, realizing you're at someone else's house".[13]

In March 2019, the version featuring Hailee Steinfeld was featured in an episode of CBS's MacGyver.[14] In May 2019, a remix of the song by Sam Feldt was released.[15]

Music video

The official music video was released to the band's YouTube channel on 9 April 2019. It was directed by Jonathon Singer-Vine and filmed in Los Angeles. It features American YouTuber Liza Koshy.[13][16]

Critical reception

Billboard called the song a "fizzy pop track" and complimented both the band and Steinfield's "sweet falsettos".[12] Idolator labelled the song a "hit" and an "anthem", and said Steinfeld's feature "adds another perspective to the ode to a developing relationship".[17] The Official Charts Company named Drax Project "one to watch" and said the track "gives a pretty good impression of their overall sound", which it described as a "healthy mix of pop, dance and hip-hop".[18]
