"Last Hurrah" is an ode to those bad habits that we just can't give up. I know I've said it all before But it won't hurt to do it all once more Rexha explained she's not just singing about smoking or drinking, she's also referencing addictions to love, food and other things. "It's our final anthem to all our vices as we seek a new tomorrow and a better us," she added. "And then do it all again tomorrow."
The lyrics were inspired by one of the song's co-writers, Lauren Christy, ate a piece of chocolate cake even though she was supposed to be on a diet. When Christy's husband asked her why she was indulging in such a calorific confection she responded: "Babe, this is my last hurrah."
Bebe Rexha performed the song for the first time on ABC's Live with Kelly and Ryan on February 25, 2019, the morning after the Academy Awards. She sung it live from the Oscars stage clad in her "Last Hurrah" signature angel wings costume.
