It was released by Syco Music on 9 December 2013 as the third single from his debut studio album James Arthur (2013).

Arthur performed the song on the eighth live results show on the tenth series of The X Factor on 8 December 2013.

After he performed the song he gave an on-air apology for his recent behaviour after using a homophobic slur in a freestyle track he recorded the previous month.

He swiftly apologised to those he offended, but was later involved in a heated argument with Lucy Spraggan over his remarks.
