“I’m waiting for someone to pinch me and wake me up from this dream. It’s unbelievable,” he said.
She continued, “People connect to music when it’s real, it’s real, and it’s coming from a real place. The song has become an anthem for a lot of women. It was a really tough year after my breakup and writing it. The song meant a lot to me. It was a way to channel my emotions.”
