In an interview with Billboard, Axel Tenner of the group said about the original recording:

Position Music initiated this through our A&R Jake Versluis. We originally wanted to do only darker rock songs, but they suggested doing half and half. So our second album, Berlin:Redux features more recent, pop hits in contrast with songs from Nirvana, Muse and Radiohead.

About its use of the song in the show Bridgerton, Tenner said,

The song choice was so unexpected, yet subtlety connected to the story and audience. In an instant, boom, everyone got it. We’re loving the comments about how people will never listen to that song in the same way again.
