The song was written by Ed Sheeran and Amy Wadge and was released as the winner's single of thirteenth series of The X Factor on 11 December 2016.

It was the sixth year running that the UK's Chancellor of the Exchequer waived VAT on The X Factor's winner's single.

The song, however, was the most downloaded and top selling single throughout the five-days since the release in the UK with the lack of streams and three-days-disadvantage (the chart starts counting sales and streams on Friday, but this song was released on Sunday night) influencing the overall chart position to be lower.

The song dropped out of the Irish Charts on 7 January, while falling 76 places to Number 96 in the UK that same week.
