The song is a remix of the original funk song; all parts of the original were used in a different manner in the song. It includes a new deep house beat drop, which is played on a trumpet, an instrument used throughout the song.

Music video

The accompanying music video for the song was filmed in the Greek island of Kykladhes, Melos. It was released on Kungs's Vevo channel on YouTube on 24 March 2016.[9] It was directed by Matt Larson for La Main Productions.[9] The models in the video are Louis Rault and Irina Martynenko. The video starts with the girl and boy meeting on a cruise ship. They later become a couple and starting dancing in the bedroom. The ship reaches the shore, and the boy and girl explore the land, coming across lakes and hills. They later discover a cave, and begin dancing in the cave over a bonfire. As of August 2016, the video reached 100 million views on YouTube.
